Snake Dance

Overview


Snake Dance is a long winding valley that runs north to south connecting the Northern and Southern parts of the Shiverpeak Mountains. This is probably the largest explorable area in the game right now. In addition, it is one of the most treacherous and most rewarding. Monsters here are typically level 24 and some of the best elite skills in the game are found here.

Making it through the long and treacherous Snake Dance is part of the famous Droknar Run.

Connected Zones

 * Camp Rankor is at the southern most tip.
 * The entrance to Dreadnought's Drift at the very northern tip.
 * The entrance to Grenth's Footprint is about half-way up and to the east.

Bestiary
Note: While exploring, players will come across a few friendly patrols of 7 or 8 Deldrimor Dwarves. It is unclear what purpose they serve at the moment. They would have been a great help against the legions of monsters in this area if they were not so weak at level 10.

Yard Trash
The area is peppered with a different assortment of monsters typical to the Southern Shiverpeaks:
 * There are Mountain Trolls in two very large groups, one at the bottleneck in south and one near the troll cave in the north. Both groups contain mobile elements and can move fast.
 * Azure shadows are peppered all over valley, usually hidden near other monsters. The combination of surprise and knockdowns can be lethal to the unprepared.
 * Tundra Giants frequent the northern part of the valley, especially around and past a resurrection shrine (marked with R on the map).
 * There are different patrols of Stone Summit in the southern half of the valley.
 * Blessed Griffons gather in groups of 3 or 4 through out the area.
