Farm Legendary Treasure Maps from high-level enemy sea bases around Faithbreaker and Securijima, run those maps for the rare Ancient Helm Schematic 4, then craft the Legendary Ancient Helm at an Ancient Workbench after unlocking the level 68 Ancient Helm tech.
The Legendary Ancient Helm is the endgame version of the Ancient Helm added in the 1.0 update. Your real target is Ancient Helm Schematic 4, because that schematic unlocks the Legendary craft while it is in your inventory.

Legendary Ancient Helm requirements
| Requirement | Value |
|---|---|
| Base item | Ancient Helm, an endgame headgear item |
| Technology unlock | Level 68 and 5 Technology Points |
| Legendary unlock | Ancient Helm Schematic 4 |
| Workbench | Ancient Workbench |
| Base craft materials | 20 Soralite Ingots and 2 AI Cores |
| Legendary schematic craft materials | 40 Soralite Ingots, 5 AI Cores, and 9 Ancient Civilization Parts |
KEY!The base Ancient Helm is a Technology unlock, while the Legendary version is tied to its schematic. That means you need both sides ready: the Ancient Helm tech path for the item itself, and Ancient Helm Schematic 4 for the Legendary recipe.
The Legendary craft can cost more than the base Technology version, so stockpile extra Soralite Ingots, AI Cores, and Ancient Civilization Parts before you start burning through maps.
Farm Legendary Treasure Maps from high-level enemy bases
How to farm Ancient Helm Schematic 4 in Palworld
This route focuses on getting Legendary Treasure Maps first, then using those maps for repeated rolls at Ancient Helm Schematic 4.
STEP 1/7
Clear the Faithbreaker sea bases
Hit the high-level enemy sea bases around Faithbreaker, since these are the priority source for Legendary Treasure Maps.
STEP 2/7
Add the large Securijima base
Clear the big Securijima base too, as the large high-level version drops Legendary Treasure Maps in current farming runs.
STEP 3/7
Skip lower-level bases for this target
Lower-level enemy bases tend to drop lower-rarity maps, so keep them out of the main Ancient Helm route.
STEP 4/7
Collect the Legendary Treasure Maps
Keep the maps from the Faithbreaker and Securijima bases, then save them for a batch run if you want faster map-to-map routing.
STEP 5/7
Run the Legendary Treasure Maps
Use the Legendary Treasure Maps to spawn treasure rewards that can include Ancient Helm Schematic 4.
STEP 6/7
Keep farming until the schematic drops
The Treasure Map roll for Ancient Helm Schematic 4 is about 0.297%, so this is a repeat farm rather than a one-and-done pickup.
STEP 7/7
Return after the base respawn
Enemy bases come back about 30 minutes after rescuing the Pal, letting you loop the same high-value camps.
Farm at least 10 Legendary Treasure Maps before opening them if you want a smoother route, because map targets can spawn close together and save travel time.

Use the Drafting Table for lower-rarity helm schematics
Lower-rarity Ancient Helm schematics are still useful. If you pull Rare or Epic versions while farming, feed them into the Drafting Table path instead of treating them as dead drops.
The data table route shows 5 Ancient Helm Schematic 3 can be crafted into 1 Ancient Helm Schematic 4 at the Drafting Table. That makes bad Treasure Map rolls part of the same long grind instead of a full reset.
Other Ancient Helm Schematic 4 sources
| How to use it | Timer |
|---|---|
| Open map rewards for Sunreach gear, including Ancient Helm Schematic 4 | About 0.297% for the schematic |
| Farm high-level bases around Faithbreaker and the large Securijima base for Legendary Treasure Maps | About 30 minutes after rescue |
| Fish the master pools near Ophydia and Eidrolon without fighting nearby enemies | About 1 hour |
| Sweep overworld locked chests along the Sunreach route | About 300 minutes |
| Run the Sunreach dungeon chest route, including the chest outside and the locked chests before the boss | Dungeon access about 1 hour |
| Run only if you are already nearby and want extra rolls | Low priority after dungeon loot changes |
After the high-level enemy base loop, add the slow-respawn sources that can also roll Ancient Helm schematics. The best order is still maps first, long-timer chests next, fishing only if you can do it cleanly, and Faebreak dungeons last.
The Sunreach dungeon route is worth pairing with your chest sweep because it has several chest clusters: one outside, two on the starting island, two on a floating island, and three more on the final floating island before the boss. Locked chests are the main prize, but smaller chests can give Gold Keys, so open them while you are already inside.
Repeat route and timer priorities
Best repeat loop for Ancient Helm Schematic 4 in Palworld
Use this as your farming rhythm once you have the level, workbench, and materials ready.
- Start with enemy bases — Clear the Faithbreaker and large Securijima bases first for Legendary Treasure Maps.
- Run the Sunreach dungeon — Add the Sunreach dungeon after bases, grabbing the chest outside and the dungeon chests inside.
- Open every useful chest — Prioritize locked chests, but open normal chests too because they can provide Gold Keys.
- Sweep long-respawn overworld chests — Do the Sunreach overworld chest route because those chests take roughly 300 minutes to return.
- Check the two master fishing spots — Fish near Ophydia and Eidrolon, and avoid combat nearby so the fish do not scatter.
- Leave Faebreak dungeons for last — Treat these dungeons as optional, since Treasure Map drops there are low-value after the loot changes.
- Repeat after respawns — Loop back through bases, maps, chests, dungeon access, and fishing as each timer comes back up.
Craft the Legendary Ancient Helm
Once Ancient Helm Schematic 4 drops, keep it in your inventory and craft the Legendary recipe at the Ancient Workbench. If the recipe is missing, check the level 68 Ancient Helm Technology unlock, the correct workbench, schematic inventory placement, and the higher Legendary material cost before assuming the drop failed.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can Tower bosses drop Ancient Helm Schematic 4?
Hard mode Tower bosses are not the farming target for the base Legendary Ancient Helm. They are tied to other Ancient Armor schematic variants, while this helm route comes from high-end world loot such as maps, chests, enemy camps, and fishing.
What is the drop chance from Legendary Treasure Maps?
Ancient Helm Schematic 4 has a listed 0.297% roll from TreasureMap05, which is why farming the map source matters more than opening one or two maps and stopping.
Where are the best enemy bases to farm Legendary Treasure Maps?
The best enemy bases are the high-level sea bases around Faithbreaker and the large Securijima base. Lower-level bases are better left alone for this farm because they tend to hand out lower-rarity maps.
Can lower-rarity Ancient Helm schematics be upgraded?
Yes. The Drafting Table can turn lower-rarity Ancient Helm schematic progress into the Legendary schematic path, with Ancient Helm Schematic 3 feeding into Ancient Helm Schematic 4.
Why is the Legendary Ancient Helm recipe not showing at the Ancient Workbench?
The recipe needs the Ancient Helm Technology, Ancient Helm Schematic 4 in your inventory, and the Ancient Workbench. If any one of those is missing, the Legendary recipe will not appear.
