Overview
Treasures of Tokuno is a typically a rotating collection event on Banes World where players hunt for lost historical artifacts scattered across eastern regions. On Banes World it is a everyday event. By gathering and turning in these minor treasures, players can claim powerful greater rewards from the event's designated vendor. The event features multiple eras that cycle the available artifact pools, encouraging ongoing participation [2]. All progress is saved server-side and persists through restarts [1].
How It Works
- Defeat creatures or explore valid regions to find Minor Tokuno Artifacts.
- Each artifact turned in increments your personal turn-in counter.
- Once you have collected and submitted 10 minor artifacts, you become eligible to claim a Greater Reward [2].
- The event tracks your progress individually and does not reset upon server shutdowns, as the current era and drop state are serialized to persistence files [1].
Locations & Drop Rules
Minor artifacts will only drop in the following valid zones:
- The entire Tokuno map
- Yomotsu Mines region
- Fan Dancer's Dojo region
Artifacts will not drop inside player housing regions or aboard boats [2]. Players must be outside of these excluded areas to receive event drops.

The following items make up the base pool of minor artifacts. Depending on the active event era, certain pigment variants or exclusive pieces may appear in place of standard drops [2]:

Turn-In Process & Rewards
The event vendor, Ihara Soko, serves as the Imperial Minister of Trade and handles all artifact submissions [2].
Interaction Steps
- Approach Ihara Soko within interaction range.
- If you have not turned in any artifacts, he will state:
- "Bring me 10 of the lost treasures of Tokuno and I will reward you with a valuable item." [2]
- Open your backpack gump or use the turn-in interface to submit collected minor artifacts. Each submission increases your counter.
- While between 1–9 submissions, Ihara Soko will track your progress:
- "You have turned in ~1_COUNT~ minor artifacts. Turn in ~2_NUM~ to receive a reward." [2]
- Once your counter reaches 10, he will announce:
- "Congratulations! You have turned in enough minor treasures to earn a greater reward." [2]
- A redemption gump will automatically appear, allowing you to select one Greater Reward from the current era's pool.
Greater Rewards
Greater rewards are tiered artifacts and equipment pieces unique to the active era. The exact reward list is dynamically pulled from the event configuration and presented via the `ToTRedeemGump` interface when eligibility is met [2].
Event Eras & Progression
The event cycles through three distinct eras, each modifying the minor artifact drop/reward pools. Server administrators control which era is active, and the state is preserved between server sessions [1][2]:
| Era | Notable Changes |
|---|---|
| Treasures of Tokuno I | Base artifact pool with standard Pigments of Tokuno. |
| Introduces Metal Pigments of Tokuno, replacing several standard pigment slots in the drop matrix. | |
| Introduces Lesser Pigments of Tokuno and adds Leurocian's Mempo of Fortune to the pool. |
Notes & Tips
- Progress Tracking: Your turn-in count is stored per-player and will not be lost if you log off or the server restarts [1].
- Valid Zones Only: Do not camp inside houses or on boats expecting drops; the event explicitly filters out these regions [2].
- Era Awareness: Keep an eye on shard announcements regarding era shifts. The active era determines which pigment variants and exclusive items can drop [2].
- Group Play: Since drops are per-kill/explore, coordinating with a group in Yomotsu Mines or Fan Dancer's Dojo can significantly accelerate artifact farming.
- Reward Gump Management: If the redemption gump does not appear after reaching 10 turns, step out of Ihara Soko's range and reapproach to force the interface to refresh [2].
- TIP Do not open chest of heirlooms or you will be unable to turn it in for credit.
