This page refers to content introduced in the expansion, Chapter VII: Legacy of the Soulless.

Beginning with Tergothen Bay, mobs may have a ball of energy visible below, around or above their heads. This is the visual clue that they have a buff on them that makes them harder than the unmarked mobs around them. The color of the ball tells you what effect is on the mob. There is also an Effect icon on the mob. Just in case you do not notice the energy ball or the icon, there is a sound that all these enhanced mobs make. Only mobs that display one of these four effects have a chance to drop a Mysterious Bag.

Effect In-game Description/Effects XP/TP  Arduous received damage reduced by half Takes half incoming damage +80%  Empower damage increase Hits you harder +50%  Frenzy attack speed increase Hits you more often +50%  Tenacious increased hit points Takes more damage to kill, hits a little harder +110%

Double Your "Dailies", Double Your Drops! - On all, or very nearly all, of the Daily and Public quests that require Quest Drops from Mobs, if you have both repeatable quests in your Quest Journal at the same time the mobs will drop Double the items, cutting your harvesting time in half! This may be considered a bug or exploit by some, but I like to call it a feature. See Category:Double Drop

Whenever you fight a member of the Inexorable League in this zone, and you are his target, an effect will appear around you, a swirling purple vortex with electricity around the borders. We have never seen an Effect icon appear but have noticed an occasional Stun effect that might be related. We simply do not know for sure. Only the mob's target will be so marked.

Quests

Why do quests, you ask? Because every quest in this zone (except dailies and publics) will (at level 97) give you about 5% XP towards level 98 and 100,197 . That's why.

Much the way it was done in Moorlands of Farsitan, you must progress the questline in The Spirits of Despair quest series to unlock sections of the quests in the Tasuq quest series.
