In Need of Supplies

A thick layer of dust and cobwebs covers the floor and walls of the excavation. It seems less like a new project than one recently resumed.

Objectives

• Deliver the supplies to Derward
• Kill enough monsters to establish a safe route for future supplies - 30 total

What to Expect

• Gather your party before venturing forth mechanics

Tips and Misc

• No piking - all party members must be present at the end to finish the quest.
  • Derward: "Before we can continue, we must make sure everyone can make it safely to this point."
  • Derward will say the same thing if 30 monsters have not yet been killed. Everyone must gather at Derward after that quota is met.
• Useful elemental buffs:
  • Acid
  • Fire
• You do not need to explore the whole map - there are more than enough enemies to complete the quest if you follow the path straight down to Derward (by pushing "left" at every intersection).
• There are several glass spiders and glass spider queens - if not dealt with, they can quickly raise the alert level on you with their hatched eggs.
• The western portion of the map, beyond Derward, is blocked off (for the this quest).

Bonus XP

• Aggression bonus: 26 or more monsters killed +10% Bonus.( ♣44 ♦78 ♥82 ♠86 )
• Onslaught bonus: 34 or more monsters killed +15% Bonus.( ♣67 ♦117 ♥123 ♠129 )
• Conquest bonus: 41 or more monsters killed +25% Bonus.( ♣111 ♦195 ♥205 ♠215 )

Notes: To get the Onslaught or Conquest bonus, you'll need to explore the side caverns as well, and kill virtually everything in the quest.

Loot

• Chests: None
• Collectables: None
• NPC rewards: None, until after completing the third quest in the Western Excavation.
