All the sphinxes say they have info though - but they have info about artifacts.

I am assuming the Sphinxes set the riddles - isn;t that what they did in classical mythology?

if you translate the text right, you get the following :
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
The scroll marks the location one has to reach since we already found the place mentioned earlier.
In this Area three rocks form a triangle.
Go up the smallest of the three, then go to an isolated rock about five breaststrokes away.
Carry on for about another thirty strokes in the same direction which leads to the tip of the island.
Go to the column furthest south.
Stand with your back against it while looking north.
Then walk seventeen steps.
Get around the obstacle, then take sixtyfour steps towards the northwest.

Equip the object about which I asked the sphinx a question.

---------------------------------------------------------
So that's that.
The code is simple.
All letters have been switched from place STILL in alfabetical order.
The vocals, however, had their own switching, also in alfabetical order.
Once you do some moving, the code becomes very easy.

Now, where are those damned 3 rocks ? :D

It's identical to what I got independently by breaking the code (except my code-breaking technique fell apart for last sentence cos it doesn't contain the :))

is the same translation i have done in italian language, so it's correct

now the question is? where is the place? i search for every ocean , i start thinking that the right place is near to a column , so i search every grp of colomn , i go to the further south of that col. and i search about north west, but anything happens , fucking step

Very disappointing - spent best part of 2 days without sleep solving this even though I knew I wouldn't be first I at least expected the in-game reward to have been worth the effort as is implied on the GoA website.

This is only a thought, but the +3% coin bonus is the bonus where you hold the 8th keep (the first for more than 7 keeps); I could be barking up completely the wrong tree here, but that's what Hibs hold at the moment; what if the bracelet gave the wear the same bonuses as the realm holding the most keeps?

Call me silly by all means - there are plenty of other drops for +coin drop after all :)

Long shot but i think there is something else definatley, the delve gives way too much information to suspect there is something else, maybe a future quest, maybe the bracer lvls at night or something daft. I even ran back to the ghost spawn point to see if they knew anything but they are not there any longer.

Or is this some sort of Arti like the necyomancer talisman quest??

Been filosofing about that also :)
can't be dropped, can't be destroyed ...
maybe as evidence to prove you've finished it ?

Ok; I think I've found one "hidden" feature.

I've been wearing it while PvEing, and as I just left the level 50 task dungeon, I found this in my inventory -

"atlantean coin" (1 count - so stackable). It appraises at 10g.

Checking my log, it was when I picked up a loot bag I got the message "You receive atlantean coin from the bag of coins!"

I must have killed about 250+ mobs so far though before I've noticed one :)

At this time the winners of this quest are already known. And people have until weekend to finish it before its deleted.
Can anyone that did the quest be so kind and make a spoiler or a walkthrue to this quest?
