For years the Raveneye Clan has sold rare pearls to House Kundarak, but now their home is under attack. Repel the invasion by battling the denizens of a vast and dangerous swamp, then take the fight to the enemy's underwater base in a climactic finale!
Sahuagin have attacked the Red Fens, virtually wiping out the Drow clan that lives in the swamp.
The Red Fens mapLoading screen
This is a level 9 Wilderness Adventure Area, allowing characters from levels 6 through 13 for full XP gain. Exceeding the maximum character level requirement will reduce XP gain from Rare Encounter / Slayer / Explorer quests.
Within the wilderness are a chain of 4 Level 9 quests (Epic Level 21).
You can get to The Red Fens by talking to Ormar the Caravan Master in southwest House Kundarak.
Note that the entrance to the final quest, Into the Deep, (which unlocks after the other 3 missions) does not appear on the in-game map, as it is accessed via an NPC, Ta Prin, found in the far north of the area.
The Red Fens is the source of some very good mid-level two-part gear sets. Each of these items can be upgraded into a ML 20 epic item via Epic Crafting.
Each time you complete a quest, you will find named items from the quest end reward (NPC in the adventure area.) It appears to be randomly selected from the pool for that quest. For example Fathom the Depths seems to always list 2 named items from the 4 possible for that mission. (This is an update to a previous behaviour from 2012.)
Completing a quest three times (regardless of difficulty) offers a complete selection of the named rewards for that quest. Upgrading an item to epic requires a single ingredient which is guaranteed to drop in the end chest of any of the quests, making this some of the most accessible epic gear in the game (items purchased with Eveningstar Commendations are perhaps easier to obtain, but the enchantments are weak and outdated.)

There are approximately 157 (range 153-162) monsters in each instance of the wilderness, requiring a minimum of 48 instances to complete the 7,500 creature slayer objective.
Each Rare Encounter is worth 600 XP, with a bonus of 3,600 XP for defeating all of them. These are random encounters: it may take several retries to get them to spawn.
