- Location of [npc=200697]: The Forbidden Reach /way #2151 64.09, 82.76
- Objective of World Quest: Flood Warning
- The stats & quality of the enemy can be reduced from Legendary > Epic > Rare if you defeat two, sometimes three, [npc=200680]s in the small area around the enemy. This weakening will time out, causing them to regain their previous qualities, and you will need to re-battle the [npc=200680]s to re-weaken [npc=200697] again. It appears that other players can benefit from someone else weakening the enemy, so if you weaken it down to rare it will weaken down to rare for everyone there at the time, too.
- Additional Information: Defeating this enemy in its RARE form will also reward [item=202407] which teaches a pet by the same name: [npc=200772]. You will not receive the pet while defeating the Legendary & Epic versions. However, you can receive credit for the WQ while fighting their Legendary & Epic versions.
