There are 5 different areas in this challenge. You start out in the center and have 4 locked doors to the other areas at the beginning. For every 15 points you earn you unlock a new section. The Maddened Spirits are invincible and will always deal 700 damage to you until you kill a Greater Infestation, which will give you the enchantment Spirit Form. This only lasts for a short period and allows you to kill the spirits. Lost Souls will spawn at random locations on the map.
The 4 types of enemies:
- Infestation (1 Point)
- Greater Infestation (3 Points)
- Maddened Spirit (4 Points)
- Lost Soul (8 Points)
For every Maddened Spirit you kill, you will have a random chance of getting an Ancient Armor Remnants put into your inventory.

[edit] Rewards
For every Maddened Spirit or Lost Soul you kill, you will have a random chance of acquiring an Ancient Armor Remnant.
The Ancient Armor Remnants can be used to upgrade the visual appearance of hero armor to the hero version of the Ancient armor look. (Note that the hero version looks different from the player version.) This upgrade is available for Tahlkora, Zhed Shadowhoof, Master of Whispers, Margrid the Sly, and Razah.
[edit] Tactics
The Paragon skill, "Can't Touch This!", will protect you from the Maddened Spirit's Maddened Strike.
The best method so far to gain points quickly is to camp near a Greater Infestation and keep it near death as you kill Infestations. Keep an eye on your radar and watch for a moving red dot, then as the Maddened Spirit gets near you kill the Greater Infestation. You should then be able to kill the spirit and move on to camp the next Greater Infestation.
The best method for getting lost souls is to kill the first few Maddened Spirit's until you have unlocked two areas. Then, start running in your wurm through the areas. There are 3 spawn points in the North West corner (one on rocky ground), Three in the North Eastern Corner, One in the South Eastern corner (on rocky ground) and two in the South Western Corner. When you start running, go through each area methodically, scanning for lost souls. Do not fight the Spirits. Let them chase you and use your tunnel skill to keep ahead of them. When you find a lost soul, make sure you have some space between you and the spirits before you kill it. Then, tunnel quickly away.
For souls on rocky ground, have at least 2 aggro circles' distance between you and the spirits before having the wurm spit you out. You will need a running skill (perhaps two) and enough damage to kill the soul quickly.
To heal you can either build up your adrenaline and use Junundu Smash to KD a mob then use Junundu Bite (given that the first attack doesn't kill your target) to heal for 500 hp. You can also use Junundu Tunnel then use Junundu Bite to KD and heal for 500 hp. You can also use Junundu Wail to heal for 500 hp if there are no enemies near you and you are near a wurm spoor.
Another way to heal is to get a new wurm, but you are very vulnerable while doing this so be careful.
Maddened Spirits are unaffected by hexes and conditions .
You may want to equip a few speed stances, because Lost Souls may spawn on rocky terrain where your wurm cannot go to. In these cases you'll have to build sufficient distance between you and the Maddened Spirits to get out your wurm without being caught. Once you are out of the wurm use your speed boosts to stay ahead of the Spirits and run to the nearest wurm spoor after killing the Lost Soul.
Note that after you have received 4 armor pieces, the drop rate appears to lower significantly.

[edit] Notes
- During this mission you will have Corrupted Lands on you.
- This mission takes place in the Dynastic Tombs. This area counts 1.8% to the Elonian Cartographer Title Track. The maximum level of that title track cannot be attained without exploring all or at least most of Dynastic Tombs.
- Like most challenge missions, monsters in this mission do not drop loot.
