Walkthrough
The trek through the winding corridors of Maishang Hills can be long if you are unable to leave from Eredon Terrace, or even better, Gyala Hatchery. There are many forks and dead-ends, and your compass does not always point towards the correct path. The patrols you encounter on the way are not difficult, but be wary of engaging more than one at the same time.

You will need to defeat a group consisting of Elder Naga Warriors, Elder Naga Archers, and Elder Naga Ritualists. Although they are not bosses, they seem to share the base double damage trait common to all Factions bosses. As such, they are highly dangerous and should approached with caution. Since most of the damage they inflict comes from attacks, any defensive skills that will cause these to miss can be a great asset. Taking out the Elder Naga Ritualists should be done first, because of heavy AoE damage cause of Ancestor's Rage.
