A charred corpse in Taupezu Azzida's lair
Taupezu Azzida, a Mantikora in the Sever, poisons its prey. The Saraathu Tong wants to study the Mantikora's victims to make an antidote out of the venom. They want the Mantikora killed so no one can use the venom to harm mortals.


Quick Walkthrough[edit]

  1. Talk to Vaveli Indavel.
  2. (Optional) Talk to Verdam Sedri.
  3. Go to The Abomination Cradle.
  4. Gather Charred Skin Sample from poisoned corpses.
  5. Kill the mantikora Taupezu Azzida.
  6. Return to Vaveli Indavel in Fargrave City District.

Detailed Walkthrough[edit]

After starting the quest, head to the Abomination Cradle in eastern Deadlands. The Annihilarch's Summit Wayshrine is the closest and to the southwest of the location. When Taupezu Azzida has spawned, you and your allies can fight and defeat the Mantikora.

The second part of the quest is to gather three Charred Skin Samples. Once you have done both things, head back to Vaveli Indavel in Fargrave City District:

"You came back? I'm impressed. Or, I will be if you actually did it. So tell me, adventurer, is it finished?"
I killed Mantikora and brought back some samples.
"Verdam will be relieved to know you've dealt with the Mantikora problem. I'll just … let one of the apprentices know that I have the samples and this matter will be settled.
As promised, here's your reward."

Notes
* Any text displayed in angle brackets (e.g., <Alias=LocationHold>) is dynamically set by the game and will be filled in with the appropriate word(s) when seen in game.
  • Not all Journal Entries may appear in your journal; which entries appear and which entries do not depends on the manner in which the quest is done.
  • Stages are not always in order of progress. This is usually the case with quests that have multiple possible outcomes or quests where certain tasks may be done in any order. Some stages may therefore repeat objectives seen in other stages.
