For some reason quest is not available anymore its either linked with reputation or something like that, i have also noticed that lots of quests in Ghostlands are now linked with reputation with Tranquilien and i couldn't get lots of them till i got Honored/Friendly with them

Edit : it becomes avaiable after finishing Attack on Zeb'Tela

He's very tough for the level. In addition to his Lightning Bolt (~75 damage) and Shrink (curse, -6 str -6 sta) abilities he will also occasionally cast an instant-cast Chain Lightning for 100+ damage. He has loads of hit points, and while it's doable, I wouldn't really recommend trying him solo.

Where to go

Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

  • A Little Dash of SeasoningGhostlands · Level 1-30

    I'm on loan to the Farstriders in an attempt to help with their troll difficulties. I believe that I have a solution to their problem. At my disposal are a number of potent poisons. The trolls, as you know, are living creatures and therefore must eat. If we combine my poison with their food...
