Ark of Harclave
Examine the Ark of Harclave at and you will be granted The Spirit of Harclave, a very strong buff that greatly increases your max health, max power, in-combat regen, and applies a damage shield akin to Brambles. It also decreases your experience gain by 90%. This will also spawn a group of six eternal Tesch Vals around the Ark.
- The buff will not zone with you when you leave the zone. It remains on if you die or evac inside the zone.
Next you need to kill a Zygomyd Spore King, at . Back near the first two fires you will find another wood board at . Use it to build a bridge and cross over the chasm. Do NOT use both boards in the zone, because if you die and revive you will be stuck at the beginning without the first board bridge. It's worth noting that there are multiple heroic encounters in this area. If solo, it pays to pull carefully, even with The Spirit of Harclave buff. If you can, pull way back, there are multiple wandering yellow groups. Low DPS classes can use invis totems or ability with good results.
- If you fall down into the chasm while attempting to cross it, interact with the gear-like elevators located in the southwest. They take you back to the beginning.
Lastly, Rosch Val Gornas must be defeated, at . You will have to build a staircase of crates to reach his ledge. The crates can only be placed a couple times, as they weaken with each move, so build carefully. Once he is dead, click on the throne to complete the quest and be ported back out to Splitpaw Den.
