Xaquang Skyway is the result of vertical expansion of Kaineng City's populace. The people in this area constructed their living areas over older streets and districts, casting deep shadows and gloom over the ground-level areas, resulting in what is now referred to as the Undercity. While the shadowy streets and sewers below are controlled by the Am Fah, Xaquang Skyway is the domain of the Jade Brotherhood. Small groups of mantids, as well as Tengu of the Roost, are found in the northern parts of this area. The western streets are mostly abandoned, burned out ruins now swarming with large vermin.

Getting there

You must complete the Nahpui Quarter mission to be able to enter this area; the portals from Bukdek Byway and Wajjun Bazaar are blocked until then.

Notes

• Complete exploration of this area contributes approximately 1.8% to the Canthan Cartographer title.
• Vanquisher runs of this area require defeating around 160 foes.
  • If you have started Winds of Change, consider vanquishing this area with Light My Fire or its hard mode version active: the foes will be the tougher Winds of Change version, but you will have powerful allies to compensate. Further, to complete either quest, you would need to kill most of the foes in the area.

Anomaly.As with any bridges, NPCs in the area can appear invisible when they are on the opposite side from the player: the bodies disappear, although the names can still be seen and they can still be targeted.
