In this guide, we are going to take a look at each Mastery Insight found within New Kaineng City, as well as how to get to them. Prior to setting out, you will need to have a glider, a Springer, and a Jade Bot. If you have played through all the expansions until now, you should have these masteries unlocked.

Ancient Vault Insight

First up, we have the Ancient Vault Insight. This Insight is tucked in the top righthand corner of the map within Old Kaineng. From the Lutgardis Waypoint, you can travel through the canals all the way back to the Ancient Vault point of interest until you reach a dead end. This area will have a bridge stretched diagonally across it.

Once here, dive into the water. The Insight is near the floor of the canal on a small stone ledge.

Jade Monument Insight

The Jade Monument Insight is one of the easiest to find. From the Promenade Waypoint, just head north and you will see this Insight at ground level, near the base of the giant Jade Monument.

Lutgardis Market Insight

The Lutgardis Market Insight is a bit tricky to find. From the Lutgardis Waypoint, head north towards the location marked with a star. This is on a platform near the Hero Point, that can be accessed by going up a staircase or using your Springer.

Once you reach the top, you can use the zipline to carry you across to a new platform. From here, use your Springer to hop between buildings until you reach the Insight.

Lutgardis Plaza Insight

The Lutgardis Plaza Insight is perched on top of a tall building that you can use ziplines to reach. Starting from the Lutgardis Waypoint, head west to the building where the Insight is. On the northern part of this building, you will see a skinny bridge; take this bridge and you will see a zipline.

This zipline will take you to the star on the lower lefthand side of the map. From here, run east until you see another zipline that will take you directly to the Insight.

Lutgardis Plaza Rooftop Garden Insight

This is another simple Insight to reach. Starting from the Lutgardis Waypoint, head south to the circular building on the map. To the west of the building, you will see a staircase; take this up to the first platform, but do not continue up the stairs going left.

Face the red circular building and hop on your Springer from the small sections of the roof until you make it to the Insight on top.

Ministry Ward Platform Insight

The Ministry Ward Platform Insight can be reached by heading northeast from the Ministry Ward Waypoint.

In this direction, you will find several sets of staircases that lead to a platform. Once you make it to this platform, take a right and you will see a very narrow staircase that scales the side of the wall.

At the top, take a right and cross the bridge in the sky, going towards the Garden of the Celestials. From here, you can use your Springer to hop to the Insight.

Ministry Ward Waypoint Insight

Although this Insight appears to be right above the Ministry Ward Waypoint, you will need to do some exploring before you find it.

Starting from the Waypoint, head southeast and cross a tiny bridge. Once across, you will see a small building that has a staircase on the eastern side. Take this staircase all the way up to the top until you come to a zipline. Use the zipline and you will be on a platform with few wasps. From here, head northwest towards the Insight. At the end of the platform, use your Raptor or Springer to jump across the gap, and you will find the Insight in the middle of this area.

Naksi Bay Ruins Insight

Naksi Bay is an area in the northwestern portion of the map. To get here, start from the Garden Heights Waypoint and head northwest over the water. You can glide down into the water and use your skiff or Skimmer until you come to the island with the Insight.

Take the path leading up the ruins until you come to a flat clearing with ruined huts. You can jump on these ruins, taking you to the stone beams above the area. Once up here, continue to scale the rocks until you come to a wooden platform, where you can glide down to the Insight.

Petrified Shipping Docks Insight

The Petrified Shipping Docks Insight can be reached by heading east from the Lutgardis Waypoint. Make your way to Grub Lane, and you will find a zipline at the location marked with a star on the map above; this will take you to a higher level in the city.

Run towards the Insight from the platform you are on, and you will see it perched at the edge of a wooden crane. To get here, simply glide over.

Pool of Tranquility Insight

From the Garden Heights Waypoint, head south, following the path shown above. When you reach the building that the Insight is in, head through a narrow alleyway with several members of the Brotherhood standing around. The Insight can be reached by using your Springer from the ground to the ledge above.

Salvage Yard Insight

The Salvage Yard Insight is located to the south of the Lutgardis Waypoint. From here, head down the canal south until you come to the location marked with a star on the map. There is a zipline here that will take you to the platform area with the Insight. Once you use the zipline, you can use your Springer and hop up to the Insight.

Shipwreck Graveyard Insight

To get to the Shipwreck Graveyard Insight, head south from the Promenade Waypoint. You can either swim, use your skiff, or use your Skimmer.

Once you make it to the island with the Insight, all you need to do is get on your Springer and hop up the cliff face until you come to the small ledge.

South Old Kaineng Ruins Insight

Lastly, we have the South Old Kaineng Ruins Insight. This is a bit difficult to find and involves some zipline use. To start, follow a path similar to the Lutgardis Market Insight; head north from the Lutgardis Waypoint to the location marked with a star on the map above.

Take the zipline here until you come to a large building with an archway. From here, you will want to go through the building, towards the Insight.

Once on the southeastern side of the building, you can use your glider or Springer to get to the roofs leading towards the Insight. Once the Insight is in view, glide over to it, and you are done!
