Notes

• Complete exploration of this area contributes approximately 2.6% to the Elonian Cartographer title track.
• Is it possible to explore this area without any foes by entering the quest Assault on Beknur Harbor, and running through the gates from the Beknur Harbor outpost.
• Vanquisher runs of this area without active quests require defeating around 350 foes. Including quest influences, it has been reported to range from 339 to 361 foes.
  • Vanquishing this area up to 10 times on an Elonian Support weekly bonus will allow any character to achieve Legendary Spearmarshal.
  • The Skale Blighters will spread disease so condition removal skills will come in handy.

Bug.For non-Nightfall characters (only), there are several quest-related spawns or triggers that are incorrect. These quests cannot be done by non-Nightfall characters yet they affect the instance.

• Healer Zenwa will always initiate his speech for the First Born quest chain and the many Mourning Villagers will always spawn.
• Troublesome Flamingos for the quest Flamingo-ing... going... gone. always spawn.
