In Avowed, you’ll discover various treasure maps leading to unique rewards—if you can pinpoint their locations. The Intimidating Feline Codpiece Map is likely the first you’ll encounter. Here’s how to navigate and complete it in Avowed.

Upon reaching the Living Lands and meeting Garryck and (possibly) Ilora, you’ll encounter a group of merchants. One of them, Lynna, offers the “Treasure Map – Intimidating Feline Codpiece” for 115. Purchase it, and you can track it in the Documents section of your Journal under Paradis.
The map’s description reads: “My husband spent a fortune on this stelgaer codpiece to liven our nights. His weak heart claimed him, and now I want no part of that garish (yet strikingly effective) piece. I leave it to the gods to find its next wearer.”
That’s quite the backstory.

From the Gods’ Gate Beacon, east of Paradis and north of the Southern Embrace text on the map, head out and bypass the Yellowband Camp. The enemies there can be tough for lower-level players, so steer clear unless you’re ready for a challenge. Skirt the southern and eastern edges of the camp, and at a fork in the road, take the right path.

You’ll reach a boarded-up area. Break the boards and open the chest on your left.

The chest contains: Stelgaer’s Pride +2, Golden Scelling (6), Silver Fenning (8), Common Arquebus, Bear Claw, Pelt (2), and Softwood Branch (2).
Since Stelgaer’s Pride armor is the main prize, here’s a detailed look at its stats:
| Armor Type | Stats | Abilities | Upgrade Requirements | Break Down | Weight |
| Medium, Unique | 18% Damage Reduction, 9 Additional Damage Reduction, -35 Maximum Stamina, -30 Maximum Essence | Bloodied Fury: Cast Barbaric Shout when taking damage greater than 30% of your Maximum Health Lesser Relentless: +5% Stamina regeneration rate | Pelt (28), Paradisan Ladder (6) | Pelt (10), Paradisan Ladder (6) | 18 |

Since the Intimidating Feline Codpiece Map is the first treasure map available in Avowed, the Stelgaer’s Pride Armor is a strong early-game option, particularly for physical builds. Playing as a spellsword, I found it effective for a while, offering solid protection and utility.
That’s how to conquer the Intimidating Feline Codpiece map in Avowed.
Avowed is available now.
