*If the Ancient Device does not spawn in either location 'Don'leave game'' and ''resume''. Head down t worry if the portal waypoint [[Desolate Sands]] is sometimes far away from the [[Hidden Camp:File:Ancient-device-map.jpg|spawn #2]] . If the ancient device is located at spawn #2 then the waypoint is usually located directly south of it.*Try to remember how the exit from area around the waypoint [[Archives of Zoltun KulleDesolate Sands]] looks like when the ancient device is there (i.e. at spawn #2), and start when it's not there. With a little practice you can tell whether it's there even without having to move away from the waypoint to check for the stairs.*If you can already see the waypoint on the hunt againminimap while checking out spawn #1 then there's likely no ancient device at spawn #2 so you can just skip it and leave the game immediately for the next try.*The ancient device also appears in Adventure Mode, but you won't be able to use Checkpoints there.**Note that there is a bounty called "Bounty: The Ancient Devices." It allows you to activate four devices in one run. <noinclude>[[Category:Templates]]
