Rain of Fear Information & Guides: An Overview | Group Progression & Task List | Raid Progression | Visible Armor



This task is the first in a series of four. It is a shared task (1-6 players) that begins with Gevani Willowsprite (map) in Evantil, the Vile Oak. He's found at -590, 3, 2. This is at the base of the tree, just west of the ramp that leads upwards from the ground level.

Pre-Requisites:
- Level 85
- No tasks

You say, 'Hail, Gevani Willowsprite'

Gevani Willowsprite says 'Nature cries out to me. This land has become corrupted. The pain this land is feeling saddens me to my very core. You must help me find a way to [cleanse] the evil that has taken hold here!'

You say, 'Cleanse the evil?'

Gevani Willowsprite says 'When a fragment of the fear shard struck this area, this vile oak grew from the tainted land. In turn, it continues to spawn fear and evil, corrupting all creatures that dwell here. I am getting ahead of myself however. Let's start with something simple. I would like for you to help me with an [experiment].'

You say, 'Experiment?'

Gevani Willowsprite says 'The [seeds] of the fear fruit that the vile oak produces can grow into a myriad of various, fear-tainted creatures. Should we plant some seeds into some of the various fungus patches that grow about, I wonder what effect, if any, that a blessed mixture of fungus food would have on the seeds.'

You say, 'Seeds?'

Gevani Willowsprite says 'Collect some fear fruit seeds from any of the creatures that inhabit this area and plant them in the various patches of fungus in the wilderness outside of the tree. Once the seeds have been planted, add this [blessed fungus food] mixture to the fungus patch. The fungus food should greatly accelerate the germination of the seeds, and hopefully the blessing placed upon the fungus food will produce a normal, healthy fungus man. If you somehow misplace your fungus food just let me [know] and I can give you some more.'

You receive 8x "Blessed Fungus Food".

You have been assigned the task 'Fun with Fungus'.

A druid named Gevani Willowsprite would like for you to perform an experiment for him to see how corrupted the lands surrounding Evantil, the Vile Oak, have become.

    This fungus patch (map) is found in the southernmost tip of the gorge at about -1575, 420, -30. This triggers the spawn of a hearty fungus man. If u die / evac and mobs despawn, you go back to Gevani Willowsprite, say "know" which gets your more Blessed Fungus Food.

    Gevani Willowsprite says 'The results you report are interesting and most disconcerting. I have underestimated the extent to which the taint of fear has taken hold in this land. I must meditate about this and see what else we can try. Before I forget, do you think you could look for my adventuring companion, Tally? She has a knack for getting into trouble and I haven't seen her lately.'

    If you read the script, he tells you that you can come back if you have any troubles. just hail him and say "reset" to get more seeds, and he resets it for you.

    It seems so. Once they despawn it does not seem possible to respawn them. You can get extra seeds and extra fungus, but giving them to the smelly patch of fungus does nothing.
    easy task
