Objectives

Slay 6 Zan'thik Venomstings in Zan'vess. Use Korven's Experimental Grenade to counter their armor plating.

Zan'thik Amberhusk slain x6

Provided item: [Korven's Experimental Grenades]

Description

The venomsting scorpions on Zan'vess are fed sap from a young age, causing a fascinating mutation in which their natural armor plating becomes infused with amber. Effectively, it's organic [[kyparite , the same substance used in forging most of the empire's weapons and armor.

I think I've found a way to chemically break down kyparite, but it needs testing. Use these grenades on the Zan'thik venomstings and observe the results.

Rewards

You will receive: 19 84 50 2

Progress

The kypari truly are amazing. They color the entire ecosystem around them in ways I had never thought possible.

Completion

The kyparite ignited, did it? Fascinating!

Not exactly what I was hoping for, but it's something.

Gains

Notes

Head southwest off the mainland to Zan'vess. Get started killing mantid. And the named, Vess-Guard Vik'az, who patrols the housing complex center of the island just south of the kypari tree itself. And the kypari worms, looking for [Kyparite Shards]. And looting the Dreadspore Bulbs on the ground, mindful of the Haunts of Fear that may come out or any of the other random debuffs... And killing the Thought-Bound Miners for their [Zan'thik Shackles]. And testing out [Korven's Experimental Grenades] on the Zan'thik Amberhusks on the western side of the island.

Finally, don't forget to kill Kypa'rak and loot the [Massive Kyparite Core] from its corpse, which starts [30-35 Daily] Kypa'rak's Core, the "hidden" daily of Zan'vess.
