Curious Collections
In Zereth Mortis you will find normal treasures such as nests, caches etc that are scattered all over the zone. These treasures can be looted every day. But there are also special treasures that you can only loot once. For this achievement, you must find and loot 5 of those special treasures.
There are many hidden special treasures that are available and much easier to get once you have flying unlocked. Most treasures are located on paths that are to far to jump.
As a demon Hunter for example it is much easier to reach the treasures, so if you have a demon hunter than it is good that you take that character to go treasure hunting. Warlock is also good with portals.
For non class specific tactic is picking the venthyr covenant. With the special ability (Door of Shadows) to teleport to higher locations. Venthyr is very good to pick when in zereth mortis.
There are also some special treasures that you cannot get until you unlock traits in the Cypher system.

Tales of the Exile
The achievement Tales of the Exile is part of the Meta Achievement Unlocking the Secrets that unlocks Zereth Mortis flying.
For this achievement you must find all 7 parts of Firim in Exile. The problem at the moment in the PTR is that you will not see the parts on minimap or on the ground if a player has looted it within the last 5 min.
You can see a yellow big dot on the minimap when you are close to it. If you don´t see the dot, then you have to wait for respawn.

Adventures in Zereth Mortis
You need to kill 10 different rares in Zereth Mortis.
There are 29 rares in total in Zereth Mortis. Some of these rares are hard to kill. Others requires some work summon/trigger before attacking. The rares that are harder to kill have a skull with a star on the map and minimap. I call these rares special rares. They also reward better loot.
I made a list and divided the rares in lower health (easier), special rares and trigger rares.
There are 9 Easier Rares (3 of them needs to be triggered to kill).
There are 20 Special Rares (5 of them needs to be triggered to kill).
Click on the rare for location / guide.
Easier Rares
Special Rares
Mother Phestis
Trigger Rares
Gluttonous Overgrowth (Easier)
Tahkwitz (Special, not a trigger but can be hard to reach)
Protector of the First Ones (Special)
