Upon certain stage of mapping, [[The Envoy]] on behalf of [[The Maven]] will give you a quest item to upgrade the {{il|Map Device}}.
While the player is exploring [[map]]ping yellow maps (T6+), they will encounter [[The Envoy]], which notes the influence of The Searing Exarch in the map.  The player will be given the {{il|Luminous Astrolabe}}.

Use the Beacon to upgrade the {{il|Map Device}}.  A symbol of The Searing Exarch will be added to the map device, toggling that button to allow The Searing Exarch influence to spawn in a map.
 
Then the following steps must be completed:
* Use the map device to add The Searing Exarch influence to a tier 9+ map.
* Use the map device to add The Searing Exarch influence to a tier 10+ map.
* Use the map device to add The Searing Exarch influence to a tier 11+ map and defeat the map boss.
* The tier 11 map boss will drop a quest invitation {{il|page=Polaric Invitation (quest item)|Polaric Invitation}}, to initiate the boss fight against [[The Black Star]]. The area level is 79.
* Use the invitation in the map device to open the map and defeat the [[The Black Star]].
* After the boss fight, spawn The Searing Exarch's influence in a T12+ map, and then T13/14/15/16+, by using the button on the map device.
* Defeat the T16 boss and the boss will drop another invitation: {{il|page=Incandescent Invitation (quest item)|Incandescent Invitation}}.
* Use the invitation in the map device to open the map and defeat the [[The Searing Exarch]].
* Talk to Kirac to complete the quest and receive the {{il|Omniscient Voidstone}}.
 
After defeating the final invitation, the player can repeat 24 Tier 14+ maps with The Searing Exarch’s influence to challenge a harder version of [[The Searing Exarch]] boss fight.
