[edit] Notes
- Vanquisher runs of this area without active quests requires defeating around 135 foes. Including quest influences, it has been reported to range from 1 to 170.
- The Chasing Zenmai quest will make this area devoid of foes. As such, there are three ways to enable the vanquishing of this area with a single kill or with less than ten kills. Entering from the Marketplace is recommended to avoid triggering Chasing Zenmai. Also note that the quests Eliminate the Am Fah and Eliminate the Jade Brotherhood must not be active.
- With the Afflicted Guard quest active, only one kill is needed.
- With the Drunken Master quest active, only one kill is needed.
- Without the above two, the Missing Daughter quest, when acquired, will spawn a few foes that can then be eliminated to vanquish the area.
- The Chasing Zenmai quest will make this area devoid of foes. As such, there are three ways to enable the vanquishing of this area with a single kill or with less than ten kills. Entering from the Marketplace is recommended to avoid triggering Chasing Zenmai. Also note that the quests Eliminate the Am Fah and Eliminate the Jade Brotherhood must not be active.
- There is a lazy cat curled up napping next to the Balthazar shrine near the southeast exit to the Undercity which will occasionally flick its tail or stretch itself.
- A pug (a type of dog) can be found in a trough just outside Kaineng Center.
