The Forum Highlands lies to the south of the beautiful Garden of Seborhin. The wide plaza that sits in the northeast is used for a variety of activities by Vabbians, including but not limited to trading, festivals, plays, and socializing. The Font of Lyss can be found at the center of the plaza.

Getting there

Characters will pass through here out of Vehtendi Valley as part of the primary quest Rally The Princes, on their way to meet with Priestess Haila in the center of the plaza.

Notes

  • Vanquisher runs of this area without active quests require defeating around 289 foes. Including quest influences, it has been reported to range from 243 to 334 foes.
    • The elemental groups are concentrated towards the south. Their groups, although small, are close to each other. Careful pulling is recommended.
    • The Desperate Measures quest in particular will produce additional Harpy and Heket spawns.
    • The Hekets and Harpies in this area are hostile to each other. After one group wipes another out, take advantage of the winner's weakened state.
    • Korshek the Immolated can easily wipe out unprepared groups. Protective Spirit and Pain Inverter are highly recommended, as the first will lower his damage output, and the second will reflect the damage back to him. See Korshek the Immolated (Zaishen quest) for additional strategies.
