Notes[edit]
- Vanquisher runs of this area without active quests require defeating around 290 foes. Including quest influences, it has been reported to range from 263 to 309 foes.
- There are a lot of hidden creatures in this area.
- Peacekeeper Marksmen and Silent Peacekeepers before both the narrow paths that lead to the Cursed Lands.
- Spined Aloes are hidden individually and in groups throughout the area.
- Fog Nightmares are concentrated in the east.
- Reed Stalkers are concentrated in the north.
- A few Smoke Phantoms and Wraiths around the center.
- The Peacekeepers and the local creatures are hostile to each other.
- While the Heirlooms of the Mad King Halloween quest is active and not completed, default The Black Curtain spawns are restored (i.e. War in Kryta NPCs do not spawn).
- There are a lot of hidden creatures in this area.
- The Peacekeeper foes in this area do not use their full range of possible builds:
- Peacekeeper Enforcers always use Earth Shaker, except the three that can spawn in Greves the Overbearing's event outside Temple of the Ages, which always use Forceful Blow instead.
- Peacekeeper Firebrands always use Mind Blast.
- Peacekeeper Marksmen always use Barrage, except for those that spawn in the two popups around the Cursed Lands.
- Grim Peacekeepers always use Aura of the Lich.
- Silent Peacekeepers are found only in the popup spawns near entrances to the Cursed Lands.
Anomaly.Even though the appearance is the same, certain areas of the bog will inflict a Poison condition, while others will not.
