Bahdok Caverns is a large underground area that connects northeastern Kourna with southern Vabbi. It used to be a secret known only to smugglers and corsairs. Now the Kournan military heavily patrols this area.

Getting there[edit]

Your character must have completed the Moddok Crevice mission to be able to enter this area. If entering from the Moddok Crevice mission outpost, talk to Gatekeeper Kahno to gain entry.

No quests take place here; entering this explorable area is completely optional.

Notes[edit]

  • This area does not contribute to the Elonian Cartographer title track because it is considered underground (i.e. not uncovered on the world map).
  • Vanquisher runs of this area without active quests require defeating around 281 foes. Including quest influences, it has been reported to range from 258 to 304 foes.
    • There are several hidden groups of mandragors in the northeastern portion of the area. It is advised to start from Wehhan Terraces and work your way through the foes counter-clockwise to avoid popups.
    • The mandragor boss, Joknang Earthturner, appears to be alone, however upon approaching him several mandragors will spawn. If you approach slowly, there is a chance that only half the mandragors will spawn.
    • The sole Skale group in the area is led by Armind the Balancer. Before taking them on, take note of the nearby heket groups. At least two small heket groups have patrol paths that go very near the large Skale group.

Trivia[edit]

  • This area and The Hidden City of Ahdashim are the only explorable areas that do not contribute to the Cartographer title track and can be vanquished.
