Description

WARNING FOR MAC USERS: The zone files for Jaggedpine Forest are bugged, and will instant crash the Mac client in certain regions of the zone. So far most reports are up on the zone wall and along hill tops - maybe elevation related? Source: Forum discussion

Jaggedpine Forest was once the tranquil sanctuary of people devoted to the god Karana, and nobody travelled from there to the outside or back. Lately, however, gnolls have started moving between here and the area north of Qeynos.

Dangers

The potmeids are highly aggressive and powerful, and roam the area near the river. They are also immune to root/snare type spells. They also have an extensive underwater tunnel area underneath the river to the east. Although most of it is completely underwater, there are air pockets throughout in case your spell runs out.

Darkpaw gnoll oracles in the evil gnoll caverns can see through all invisibility spells. There is also a large pit trap in there that leads you to a much deeper place if you fall into it. You'll hit it if you enter the caves and then keep to the right.

Benefits

The zone is outdoors, and has a large number of animals to hunt. Although hunting them will hurt your faction, if you have special animal abilities and aren't worried about faction it can be a great place to hunt them down. This is especially true for druids and rangers, although I would make sure you don't worship Karana first, because it could cause problems in the future.

There are banks and merchants in the human town and also the good gnoll caverns.

Travelling To and From Jaggedpine Forest

You can enter the Jaggedpine Forest through a teleporter located deep in the bear caves in Surefall Glade. There is also a teleporter located in the bottom of Blackburrrow.
