Since I can breathe underwater by now, there’s no challenge to this. This quest was notable for a very long - and not that eventful - underwater swimming sequence. Having tracked the evil druid back to his grove, I have to put an end to him. Er, my druid was in another zone.Īnd that zone is found in “The Druid’s Curse,” the final quest of this chain. It was quite the frantic fight before I won… and found out that my princess was in another castle. These nasty brutes are tough to put down, and the final fight pit me against about six of them and a giant den mother. Mobs pop out of crooks, and twice I fell into hidden spike traps.īut the worst was the BARS. Everything in here is a little too tight with not much room to backpedal or strafe. This quest does a great job portraying a claustrophobic forest environment. I think I’m going to kill a lot of nature tonight. In any case, a Harper shows up and mentions that the previous homeowner brought some artifact home from the King’s Forest, so that’s where we are off to next!ĭDO has its beautiful moments more often than you’d think, and I found myself instantly enchanted with the thick woods of “Thorn and Paw.” Deep into the King’s Forest, I’m tracking down a druid responsible for this plant corruption.

I like how in DDO if you’re battling a dryad, it’s absolutely essential take out her tree, too. The search through the house - a very linear progression that twists and turns - leads to the cellar and a secret room, where a dryad is revealed to be the source of the corruption.

“Thick murky green” is the light palette of the day, with every room strangled by plants and infested with vine horrors, wood woads, and even wolves. Moving on to “Overgrowth,” I’m assigned the mission of investigating the overgrown home of the previous quest’s boss.

It was a close thing, but at 26 health and zero seconds remaining, I popped back to full strength, healed myself, and got to revengin’. All I could do was run and outwait the timer while mobs whittled down my health. The worst part was when one boss struck me with a four-and-a-half-minute weakness affliction, during which I couldn’t fire my crossbow, use any spells, or drink any potions. I think I may have accidentally put this on epic rather than heroic mode, eh? This quest proved incredibly tough, with CR26 bosses giving me a run for my money. In “Outbreak,” I investigated the healing center and found it infested with leafy growth and green zombies.

This one starts with a strange outbreak sweeping through a local hospital. It’s time for a new Forgotten Realms quest series! Next up is the four-parter Song of Druid’s Deep.
