The Lahtenda Bog is a swampy lowland area situated in the southwestern corner of the island of Istan. It is dotted with old ruins, including old Sunspear crypts and tombs, that suggest that the area may once have been drier. Now it is a relatively dangerous place populated by large numbers of insects, groups of skale, hidden mandragors, and Skree harpies. Corsairs are also known to frequently carry out their illegal activities in this area.

[edit] Getting there

Although accessed via the mission outpost of Blacktide Den, there is no requirement of needing to complete the Blacktide Den mission beforehand. Slightly further along the storyline, the primary quest War Preparations (Ghost Reconnaissance) will lead characters to this area.

Secondary quests that take place in this area include Down on the Bayou, Crypt-ology, and To Ask For More.

[edit] Notes

  • Complete exploration of this area contributes approximately 2.5% to the Elonian Cartographer title track.
  • Vanquisher runs of this area without active quests requires defeating around 515 foes. Including quest influences, it has been reported to range from 356 to 611.
    • Condition removal skills will come in handy here, due to the enemies inflicting a variety of conditions, including disease, bleeding, and cripple.
    • There are a lot of hidden Mandragors throughout this area, especially the northern half.
    • Most, if not all, of the quests that take place here increase the total number of enemies. The master difficulty quest What Do You Do with a Drunken Shauben? in particular will increase the total number of enemies by at least a hundred.

[edit] Trivia

  • The map included in the collector's edition of Nightfall named this area "Lahtendi Bog" instead. It is not known if the name was changed in the last minute or if it was a printing error.
