Tips and Misc
You enter into a misty forest. A dead body lies beside a wagon with a note that you can read.
- Walking into patches of mist will teleport your character to a random other misty location within the quest. You will also suffer a negative 2 levels.
- Death Ward will stop the level drain; Deathblock has no effect.
- A will-o-wisp will try to lead you to the left of the path to a small graveyard, where you'll promptly be ambushed by numerous other will-o-wisps.
- The number of will-o-wisps that spawn roughly doubles every difficulty level. On elite, they can easily take out your entire party.
- If you decide not to fight the will-o-wisp at the graveyard, they will later spawn at the end fight with the first will-o-wisp (at least on hard and elite).
- You can meet a revenant fighting some wolves, if you indicate that you do not serve Strahd or claim to don't know who Strahd is, you can follow him. He'll lead you to a safe shrine and assist you if you talk to him. However, if you claim to serve Strahd he will attack you and you will lose the Shrine.
- To gain his assistance, talk to the revenant after the shrine appears and choose the two options that imply you're going to attack Strahd right away. He will then offer to fight with you.
- Several large packs of wolves are hiding in the forest.
- When you near the gate, a Scarecrow boss attacks. If you go up the path away from the gate, several other scarecrows and scarecrow bosses will also attack.
- You have to defeat all of the scarecrows (and other mobs that spawn at the end fight) to complete the optional and get the end chest. The wolf pack optional, however, is not needed for the chest.
- Clicking on the gate completes the quest AND immediately teleports you to The Land of Barovia. Loot the chest in advance.
- You can find a Vistani wagon that has lost a wheel. Several Vistani are nearby. You can speak to their Elder for some story information.
Bonus XP
- Aggression bonus: 15 or more monsters killed +10% Bonus.( ♣69 ♦121 ♥127 ♠133 )
- Onslaught bonus: 30 or more monsters killed +15% Bonus.( ♣104 ♦182 ♥191 ♠200 )
- Conquest bonus: 45 or more monsters killed +25% Bonus.( ♣173 ♦304 ♥318 ♠333 )
- Notes: For conquest on Elite at least 4 additional wolf packs must be killed.
Loot
- Chests: 1
- You must complete the Defeat All the Scarecrows optional before clicking on the gate to receive this chest. It can drop named loot, and appears near the exit gate once the last scarecrow is defeated.
NPC end rewards
