Novus weapon upgrade system findings

[Finuve]

Simple break down of the quest.
Getting Alexandrite -
1. Daily quest for a mysterious map gives one each day. Requires you to do the Expert Roulette(can do as a group).

So how do you start this quest? I didn't see it in the notes.

You'll notice another quest in Fallgourd after you have to turn in your 3 inks which will start this quest line.

Thanks for the summary. 2 questions about it:

1) What has Expert Roulette to do with the map? Isn't it something you need a Level 50 DOL for? Is it a drop that can only be obtained through Expert roulette?
2) Can you wear any weapon for these FATES or do you need an Animus weapon to make them drop?

BTW, the Patch notes are a Joke regarding Novus. It is just general blabla leaving you alone with 1.000 questions lol.

The expert Roulette is just what the quest wants you to do to get these new maps. You pick up the quest, you do the roulette, you get the map as you hand in the quest(think weekly primal kills quest). And yes you must wear your animus to get Alexandrite from a FATE.

Thanks for clearing it up, I thought it is just a new map I can gather with my Miner or Botanist. So basically you can spam Expert roulette for a while to get your Alexandrite. I doubt the Roulette bonus needs to be unused to get it. Maybe that's their counteraction for leaving players in Brayflox. Stay the fuck in the dungeon till the end to get your Alexandrite could be a solution, at least for Roulette.
