QuestFloodedDepths

A Templar with the Dweller of the Deep.

Talk to Tarkleigh to start the quest after completing Breaking Some Eggs.

Tarkleigh: So you opened the tidal passage and lived to tell the tale? Forgive me if I don't seem over the moon about it. I was running down a wounded rhoa one night's eve, when I glimpsed something in that watery cave behind the mists of the falls. Looked a bit like one of those sand spitters, but the size of a bloody ox.

I reckon it'll be nesting down in the flooded depths, somewhere below that submerged tunnel. If you're going that way then do us a favour. Take this and go spill the old shield crab's guts... before it gets hungry and comes looking for us.

Quest Notification Kill the Dweller of the Deep.

Tarkleigh has asked you to dispatch the Dweller of the Deep, a giant crab lurking in the depths below the Submerged Passage.


Enter the Flooded Depths from the Lower Submerged Passage and kill the Deep Dweller.

Quest Notification Talk to Tarkleigh for your reward

You have killed the Dweller of the Deep. Talk to Tarkleigh for your reward.

Tarkleigh: You managed to kill a Grandaddy Crab? A pity you couldn't lug it up out of the caves for us. Could have made quite the chowder out of it.

No matter. We've got one less reason to fear the dark, and I've got one more thing to thank you for.
