Sunqua Vale

Description
Sunqua Vale is an explorable area on the Shing Jea Island, just north-west of the Shing Jea Monastery. This is usually among the first areas that newly created roleplaying characters for the Factions campaign explore. It is divided between open plains in the southeast, a snowcspped mountain in the west, and a built-over area in the Northeast that includes the entrancway to Minister Cho's Estate and a poorly-lit temple infested by mantids. Most of the enemies here are fairly weak.

 * Bovine creatures called Water Buffalos roam the open areas of Sunqua Vale. They are unselectable, and thus you cannot directly attack them, but traps and some Point Blank Area of Effect skills can kill them. Deathly Swarm cast on a nearby foe will also damage the cows, or Death Nova on a friend near them (try a minion). When they have been damaged, spirits will target them.  They provide the experience of a level 3 creature in normal mode, and a level 22 creature in hard mode.
