To start the Lore Untangler and Zinn’s Prize Student Achievement you will have to get the Zinn’s Study Guide. Keep note you can only get there when all the Rata Novus City Defenses events are completed.
Go to Rata Novus Waypoint [&BAMIAAA=] and walk South, see the map on how to get there.
When you reach this location interact with the Zinn’s Study Guide, this will give you the item Zinn’s Study Guide [&AgFELAEA], which is also the first item for the Zinn’s Prize Student Collection.
Close to the Zinn’s Study Guide you will also find the Zinn’s Print-o-Matic. Here you can buy several items for 25 Ley Line Crystals each. Keep note that you can only purchase 1 item every day.
After you’ve bought all the items the Zinn’s Prize Student collection will be completed.
Rewards:
3 AP, Mini Holographic Zinn [&AgEkIwEA].
For the Lore Untangler you have to visit several Rata Novus Instructors and answer their question, when your anwser them correctly you will recieve 1 Rata Novus Writs of Excellence, with 10 of these you are allowed to open a chest at the same location where you found the Zinn’s Study Guide & Zinn’s Print-o-Matic, keep note that you can only do 1 question at every Rata Novus Instructors after every King of the Jungle Meta, then they will reset. These question are random, which means every Rata Novus Instructors can have a different question every time.
After answering 20 questions correctly you will complete the Lore Untangler Achievement, 3AP and 1MP.
Those dont have to be different Rata Novus Instructors so you can basicly even complete this achievement by just doing one or a few easy ones and do those every reset. (after King of the Jungle Meta)
The Rata Novus Instructors are always active except when the King of the Jungle Meta starts then they wont be present.
Also keep note that some of the Rata Novus Instructors are unreachable without the Itzel Lore Mastery T1 Bouncing Mushrooms and Gliding Mastery T3 Lean Techniques and T5 Advanced Gliding.
