What does this information mean? This instance gives you the choice of a Heroic version also. There are no lockout timers for this zone. You may re-enter over and over as many times as you like, until the door vanishes and you must find it again. The outside of the door will be guarded by a single tainted scorpion (38).

The entrance moves around the Defiled Forest . Known locations are:

• Southeast of Titan's Tower ( -136, -28, -245 ) /waypoint -136, -28, -245
• South of Titan's Tower ( 17, 11, -296 ) /waypoint 17, 11, -296
• Halfway up Titan's Tower on the northeast side ( -47, 23, -373 ) /waypoint -47, 23, -373

Encounters Edit

  • This is the only roamer, and also the only mob all of the rest are social with. Wait till he gets near the B on the map and body pull him at least to the A. If you spell or arrow pull him from anywhere else all or most of the rest will join him.

Named Edit

Seems to be random whether you get a named, or none. In 20 runs I have seen all three of them, but never more than one per instance.

• Drizta the Tainted (39)
• Lady Andiza (40)
• Lord Zinbaltik (40)
