Tips and Misc
- Bring an underwater action item if you can. You can swim to pockets of air, but it tends to make you fall behind.
- Most of the pockets of air are marked on your map when you find them
- Like other quest chains in the Forgotten Realms, this final quest features most of the enemies you have faced before on the same map.
- The Wood Woads are orange named, but still love to spam Earthquake.
- There are fewer Vine Stalkers, but many more Will-o-Wisps.
- The Corrupted Dryads and Druids are plain yellow named mobs. The Dryads have no trees this time.
- The only breakables are on top of the cliff near the Ranger Kuldail Ukien.
- The final fight is with the Druid Halsaime.
- He is a very powerful druid, and is human in the first part of the fight.
- Like any druid, he can cast healing spells on himself.
- He will rapidly cast spells like Earthquake, Call Lightning, and Firestorm many times in a row in human form.
- At 50% health he transforms into a black wolf form, and at 25% he transforms into a Black Bear. Both times he summons mobs.
- He is quickly regenerating at wild form. To make him human again, kill all spawned mobs. If you run around, sometimes mobs will get stuck behind trees/rocks. Halsaime will NOT take further damage until the mobs are dead!
- The mobs on Heroic Normal were all the previous yellow named mobs you had faced. Dryad, Druid, Bears, and Wisps.
