Notes

The Guild Wars 2 Wiki has an article on Zen Daijun.

• Zunraa can be summoned by using a Shrine of Zunraa and will follow your party as an ally.
• There is a Komainu guarding the passage towards Kahnju Overlook.
• Vanquisher runs of this area without active quests require defeating around 163 foes. Including quest influences, it has been reported to range from 160 to 166 foes.
  • Most of the afflicted groups contain an Afflicted Ritualist; prevention of their Spirit Transfer and Recuperation is recommended.
  • Afflicted Rangers, Monks, Mesmers and Elementalists are only found in two or three groups.
  • Factions characters can vanquish this area by killing or charming a single animal. This trick requires that all characters have completed An Unwelcome Guest and that Winds of Change is not active (either because the character has not started it or because Memories of Purity is active). It will not work if the party includes any Prophecies or Nightfall characters. This is an intended feature, rewarding Canthan natives for their role in clearing evil from the area.
