Metadata ID: Metadata/Items/Expedition/ExpeditionLogbook

Expedition Logbooks is an item class[1] used to perform Expeditions. Expedition Logbooks (or simply Logbooks) are the only item of this item class. They were introduced in the Expedition league. They can be taken to Dannig, Warrior Skald to open a portal to a large Expedition area.

Item acquisition

Expedition Logbook has restrictions on where or how it can drop.

Drops from Expedition Runic monsters; certain Remnants can increase the chance of getting a Logbook. Can also be purchased from Dannig.

Starting a logbook expedition

While talking to Dannig, Warrior Skald Players can choose one from 2-3 Expeditions. This will open 6 Portals to an Expedition area at your Map Device.

Mechanics

Logbooks have an item level, which reflects the area level of the Expedition. The highest Area Level is 83.

Logbooks can be crafted into Normal, Magic or Rare rarities with currency. Higher rarity Logbooks have higher Item Quantity and Item Rarity at the cost of more negative modifiers. Unlike maps, there is no bonus for opening Logbooks unidentified.

Logbooks offer 2 or 3 different Expedition areas which can have different implicit modifiers e.g. #% increased Explosive Placement Range. The numeric values of these modifiers can be re-rolled with a Blessed Orb — high rolls of #% increased number of Explosives and #% increased Explosive Radius can significantly increase the reward yield of a Logbook.

While in the Expedition area, numerous icons show the locations of Remnants that modify monsters or drops, reward chests with league-specific loot tables, Underground Area entrances, or Shrines.

Like in normal Expeditions, monsters and reward chests are affected by both good and bad modifiers in a detonation chain and typically stacks, making the final encounters in the detonation chain difficult but also rewarding. After a successful detonation chain, all openable chests are highlighted on the minimap.

Expedition Bosses have a 20% natural spawn rate in Logbooks of the appropriate zone level(privately confirmed by GGG). Certain implicit modifiers on Logbooks can guarantee a boss spawn. Expedition Bosses are affected by all previous Remnants in the explosive chain, and appear to gain about 5% increased Artifacts and Reroll Currencies per Remnant affecting it.[2]
