Category:Antharia Zoo

Many rare and exotic animals were collected long in the past by the great councils of antharia before it sank into the ocean. They were moved into a large zoo which was used to protect them for centuries from any threat. Until recently the zoo was off-limits to outsiders as a way to prevent any harm from coming to the animals. Things have changed and the council now feels it is time to open it's gates and let foreign visitors pay to view the species and thereby maintain the zoo's ever rising maintenance costs. For a small fee anyone can now come view the birds and fish and forest dwelling creatures long since thought to be extinct. Only one species has been seen outside of this menagerie in recent times, but never has anyone seen such a marvelous example of what the varans were before nearly all of them died on the surface. Specially trained staff try to care for and feed the animals a very strict diet. They do their best to insure no visitors disturb the zoo's exhibits. Souvenirs are also sold for children out of the zookeepers cabin located within the zoo past the glacial aquarium.

Adventuring

While the tourists in this area are excellent xp for solo or duo from levels 35-43, the other mobs found behind the locked cages are generally hero level and aggressive, particularly the fish in the aquarium. You cannot flee from these, and they are corpse eaters, so if you have the pass door spell avoid accidentally walking north into their area. The best xp is found in the southern cage with the rats and lions (avg. 600-700xp solo in late 30s), but these hit hard on lowmort groups.
