Field briefing
Encounter order may vary by version. Use the list as a target checklist rather than a floor-by-floor route.
Before you enter
- Travel to Alcaz Island off Dustwallow Marsh and regroup before entering the prison. Alliance characters carrying The Dragon’s Journal should leave room for Zarla’s Journal.
Recommended party
- Use one tank, one healer and three damage dealers. Decide who needs the prison quest items before the run.
Route & objectives
- The five listed encounters are Overseer Wrex, Tidemistress Ca’zass, Katerina the Cleaner, The Questioner and Blazeroar. Use this as a target checklist, not a floor map.
- Check Ca’zass for the head, The Questioner for Ornate Shackle Key, and Blazeroar for Zarla’s Journal when following the relevant objectives. The key’s drop does not establish that every character needs it to enter.
- The separate named enemy Zarla Ober can award loot. Check the group’s journal objective before leaving the island.
