Notes
- There is a door in the northern part of this area that will not open. It is not currently known whether ArenaNet will make an area on the other side of this door or what its purpose was.
- This area is a servicable spot to accumulate Sunspear promotion points. By following the perimeter of the map in a clockwise fashion, it is possible to activate Hunts for Hekets, Mandragors, and Corsairs without doing a great deal of fighting beforehand. A Hunt for Plants can be found at the Shrine in the heart of the area, and there is also a Whispers Informant who will give you an Elemental Hunt which, by killing Cracked Mesas and Stone Shard Crags will net a small number of Lightbringer points. There is also a particularly large concentration of Corsairs in the southwestern region of the map. All told, a complete sweep of the area can yield around 600 Sunspear points and around 25 Lightbringer points, in addition to doubled XP for all Hunt creatures and (naturally) loot.
- There is a hostile pride of lvl 5 Lions and Lionesses in the plains located to the far east, beyond the lake. These are the only enemies you need to kill east of the river when vanquishing the zone.
- Preserved Red Iris Flower can be found in this region.
- The area will yield 2.5% towards the explorer title.
- Vanquisher Title: 146-201 foes, depending on how many pop-ups are triggered.
- Follow the path described in the note above for best results. Watch out for the corsair bosses, they can easily wipe your entire team out.
