First, players need to make their way to Golden Wave Island. Those familiar with the Island Token merchant, Opher of the Lonely Island, will find Golden Wave Island a short travel distance to the northeast.

For those that have made it to Arthetine, Golden Wave is right off the southwestern coast. Sailing there via boat is the most common way for players to approach this island full of goodies.

When they make land, players will notice a ton of chests, boxes, crates, and other containers that can be opened. Silvers, crafting materials, and much more can be gathered from them.

The most essential item that can be obtained is the Golden Wave Island Token. This can only be found in a chest, and its location is random and different for every player.

That means players will have to scour Golden Wave Island and open every chest they come across. The hope is that they get lucky and find the Island Token in just the first few.

Players need to keep their fingers crossed that the RNG is kind to them and provides them with the Golden Wave Island Token in Lost Ark without having to spend too much time in the area.
