Auspex is an exploration relic in Warhammer Survivors that helps uncover secrets throughout the Warhammer 40,000 stages. Its usefulness extends beyond the location where you discover it, making it particularly valuable when searching for previously inaccessible items.
How to Use Auspex in Warhammer Survivors
To use Auspex in Warhammer Survivors, you must first collect the relic on the Desert Wasteland stage. Once obtained, Auspex reveals hidden item locations across Warhammer 40,000 stages, marking them on your map.
The relic is found directly on the Desert Wasteland map. After collecting it, you can return to other stages and search for items that were previously hidden.
Auspex is a one-time collectible, meaning it will no longer appear on Desert Wasteland after you've acquired it.
Its effects apply to Warhammer 40,000 stages rather than the Age of Sigmar stages, so focus your exploration on the appropriate maps.
What Hidden Items Does Auspex Reveal?
Auspex does more than identify existing collectibles. Certain hidden relics only become available on their respective stages after you've collected it.
Five items specifically depend on Auspex:
- Imperial Shipyard: Tactical Rock and Maelstrom Key
- Death World Invasion: Codex Astartes and The Book of Tzeentch
- Hobby Table (40K): Ardcoat
These items won't be placed on their respective stages until you've obtained Auspex, making the Desert Wasteland relic an important prerequisite for further exploration.
I'd recommend revisiting Imperial Shipyard and Death World Invasion first, since each has two items connected to Auspex. You can then explore Hobby Table for Ardcoat.
Collecting Auspex also satisfies the Scanner Incantation objective in the Warhammer 40,000 Secrets menu.
If you've already explored these locations without finding their hidden items, there's no need to assume you've missed something. Collect Auspex first, then return to check the newly revealed locations.
