The bounties are quests where you have to defeat a tough enemy at a certain part of the world.

The area that you need to go to is identified by a large yellow circle on the map.

Where To Find The Enemies

Once you get into the yellow circle you will be told to find tracks using your Elemental Sight.

You will then notice blue energy leading you in the direction, keep following the energy until you reach the target.

First it will take you to 3 different locations, then you either need to defeat an enemy, collect an item, or harvest a resource.

Once these are completed the energy will lead you to the bounty target.

Then the target needs to be eliminated, then you just need to return to the NPC and collect the reward.
