Lost Ark: All Mokoko Seed Locations in Vrad's Hideout (2026 Guide)

I still remember the first time I stepped into Vrad's Hideout in Lost Ark. After trudging through snow and ice, the warmth and opulence of this dungeon felt like a reward in itself. But let's be honest—Vrad's ill-gotten wealth only netted him five mokoko seeds, and I was determined to find every single one. Even in 2026, this guide remains accurate for anyone diving back into Arkesia. So here's my first-hand account of where to grab all five seeds, along with a crucial warning that could save you a headache.

The big warning: don't trigger the mini-boss too early. Most of these seeds are straightforward, but if you fully investigate the first room you come to—down the stairs to the left—you'll face a mini-boss called Hideout Storage Keep. Triggering that fight locks you out of the second and third seeds on this run. I learned that the hard way, so trust me: grab seed one, then back out and save the rest for later.

🌱 Mokoko Seed One – Hideout Storage Keep

You enter from the southernmost point of the map, with a hall leading northeast. After taking out the first few guards, I spotted a passageway on my left. Follow it as it winds down two short flights of stairs into a large room. At the bottom, treasures are stacked to your right. Just past the wall-mounted light, there's a large gold and white chest with a blue lid—my first mokoko sat right in front of it.

Remember: there are lots of things to investigate in this room. Doing so triggers the mini-boss and blocks seeds two and three. So grab the seed and get out.

🌱 Mokoko Seed Two – The Office

Head back to the main corridor and go northeast into a dining room, where a troop of guards ambushes you. After dispatching them, go to the east side of the room and continue northeast—this path is blocked if you triggered Hideout Storage Keep. Enter the long room leading to the office, and expect another ambush. Go up the stairs into the office and over to the double desk by the back wall. The second seed is tucked behind its right-hand side as you look at it. I almost missed it because the desk blends into the shadows.

🌱 Mokoko Seed Three – The Corridor Outside The Office

Leave the office through the southwest exit and turn right down a short set of steps. Instead of turning left into the large room, walk forward towards the velvet sofa placed at a dead-end. Sat on the floor in front of it is your third mokoko. It's a quiet little spot—I actually appreciated the brief pause before the next fight.

🌱 Mokoko Seed Four – Guard Quarters

Now head down into another large room, ready for another swarm of enemies. Once defeated, follow the quest southwest into the Guard Quarters. After dealing with the guards there, head to the southwest corner of the room to find the fourth seed, on the floor by some sacks and barrels. It's easy to overlook if you're focused on the exit, so keep your eyes low.

🌱 Mokoko Seed Five – The Basement

Keep following the main quest as it leads you into the prison. After defeating the warden mini-boss, you'll need to open the door to a jail cell. Inside, you'll be thanked by the fleeing prisoners—but better than their thanks is the final mokoko seed of Vrad's Hideout, hidden in the hay just in front of the two prisoners on the left-hand side. I nearly walked past it, but the faint green glow gave it away.

📋 Quick Summary Table

💡 Final Tips

• Do not fully investigate the first room if you want all five seeds in one run. Grab seed one, then leave.

• The dungeon is linear enough that you won't get lost, but the ambushes can overwhelm you if you're undergeared.

• Even in 2026, these locations haven't changed—so this guide should serve you well.

I hope this walkthrough saves you some time and frustration. Vrad's Hideout may be a den of thieves, but those mokoko seeds are worth the trouble. Happy hunting! 🎮
