Sunqua Vale

Locations of all bosses

Collector locations
Sunqua Vale is an idyllic location nestled between the mountains and the southwestern cliffs of Shing Jea Island. It includes portions of the short east-west mountain range of which Tomaat Pass leads from the Shrine of Maat towards the western coast of the island. The lowland areas of this area are sparsely populated by simple Mantids and wandering Kappa. Towards the western end, near Lake Puang, some Naga can be encountered. The snowy mountain range is slightly more dangerous, with bands of Sensali Tengu and the Crimson Skull patrolling about.

This is the first explorable area where new players will encounter hostile enemies. The Mantids (excluding a few in Zhengjo Temple), Kappa, and Naga in the area are passive until attacked first, but the Sensali, the Yetis, and the Crimson skull band encountered in the northern mountainous paths do attack on aggro.

[edit] Notes

  • Complete exploration of this area will yield about 3.3% to the Canthan Cartographer title track.
  • Vanquisher runs of this area without active quests yielded roughly 130 foes or so. Discounting quest influences, it has been reported to range from 105 to 152.
    • The minimal number of creatures in this area appears to be influenced by the quest A Strange Request during the Dragon Festival.
    • A few Kappa will jump out of the waters if you approach too close the southeastern waterfront.
    • Similarly, a few Naga will show up as you cross the bridge over Lake Puang.
    • A single hidden Lesser Oni can be found a short distance northwest from the exit into Tsumei Village.
    • After Vanquishing this area you get about 680 experience and gold.
