Wilderness Adventure Areas, introduced with Module 4, make the older wilderness areas interesting by having ongoing quests within them, as well as add new wilderness areas. Unlike regular quests, you can leave the wilderness areas and not lose any advancement. In fact, it will be necessary to leave and re-enter these Wilderness Areas to hope for the appearance of the rare encounters.
Wilderness Adventure Areas typically have three quests:
- Rare Encounters - finding mini-bosses in the Area. These appear in fixed places, but might require multiple attempts for them to appear.
- Slayer - killing large numbers of the Area's denizens. Each area has a specific number of Slayer levels to attain, each increasing level granting increasing XPs.
- Explorer - finding points of interest in the Area, usually broken up between Lore and Dungeon Entrances.
Each Wilderness Adventure Area has a level rating, as well as a range of levels for which characters can earn experience. The character's level doesn't affect the amount of XP, unlike regular quests, but having any character in the party that is outside of the Area's level range penalizes all party members' XP earned for the quests.
