Description

The time has come. The Wild Hunt has driven the Drust back to their stronghold at the edge of Ardenweald. Their scouts report that Gorak Zhar herself is among them.

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.
