The Drowned Lantern, and the Bog Matron rebuilt

The Bog Matron, rebuilt

• A lair of her own. Climb over the boulder at the end of the causeway in the Drowned Lantern, into a flooded cavern. Once the quest is done, fight her as often as you like.
• No blade can reach her. She sits out in deep water. Bring a bow: she soaks up spells as well.
• A mid-game boss, level 69, and built like a player, as Hrask is. Learn what each pose means, and don't stand close.
• Her drops: big bones every time, and separate rolls each kill for fen herbs, runes, gems, healing potions, gloomfish and lightshards.
• Rare: Matron's hexwood staff (Sorcery 60), stronger than the elderwood staff. Hrask is weak to light spells.
• Rare: Puddle, a bog hag the size of a cat, in a puddle of her very own.
• Already have a hexwood staff? It's been reworked with her, and now needs Sorcery 60.

The Drowned Lantern, reworked

The story is exactly the same. Everything around it has been redone.

• Now a mid-game quest. Combat level 45, Archery 45, Foraging 15 and 8 quest points to start; combat 55 and Archery 55 recommended (you'll be warned).
• Bigger rewards: 3 quest points, 7,500 coins, 20,000 Lightkeeping XP, 20,000 Archery XP, 10,000 Foraging XP, 10,000 Alchemy XP and 5 healing potions.
• The Keeper's log is found in the flooded halls now, not dropped.
• Lost the Sunshard? It no longer sends you back through the story. One in your bank, go and fetch it; one gone for good comes back from her pool.
• The Drowned Lantern is much brighter.
• Already part-way through? Your progress has been reset, once. Speak to Morwen in the Duskfen to start again.
• Already finished it? It stays finished, and you get the XP the new rewards add: 17,000 Lightkeeping, 20,000 Archery, 7,500 Foraging and 8,000 Alchemy.

Everything else

• On a phone held upright, lists scroll by touch again: skills, quests, the bank, settings and chat.
• A monster's tooltip now shows what it resists.
