This guy spawns in the short tunnel running south from the southernmost point on the eastern spiral (obvious what I mean if you take a quick look at a map). Close to the Projection of Power. It's also hands down the best raw XP spot I have found in OoW so far; I went from 67 to 70 without moving more than a few yards from that point.

Cadavor Fonidan himself is a random spawn at the end of that tunnel; all the mobs around here are on a 15 minute timer, including him or his placeholder (which can be an Elite Kyv or an Elite Ukun). A lightning guy also spawns and roams in that tunnel, and in the main spiral there are four Huvuls that spawn just to the west, and four Dragorns that spawn just to the east, all of which can be pulled without even moving. Just further east are four more Huvuls. This gives a total of 14 mobs to kill in every 15 minute cycle without having to move anywhere at all - and of course, being at a dead end and being about as far from the zonein as you can get, there is nothing in the way of passing traffic to interfere with your killing.

Cadavor Fonidan himself dropped all rune types other than Glowing for us over the course of those levels. His spawn rate is approximately one in three, and his rune drop rate is approximately one in two. His other loots are the Bloodrunner Belt (Lucy number 70262) and Shimmering Feran Hide Leggings (Lucy number 70272).

A Discording Enchainer. Level 69-70
A Discordling Taskfiend. Level 69-70.
A Dragorn Battlemaster. Level 70.
A Dragorn Sentinel. Level 69-70.
A Huvul Commander. Level 69-70.
A Huvul Strategist. Level 69-70.
A Lightning Warrior. Level 69-70.
An Elit3e Kyv Hunter. Level 68-70.
An Elite Noc Cleaver. Level 68-70.
An Elite Ukun Deathfang. Level 68-70.

That's all the trash I've seen. None of the names are capitalised but makes it easier to read.

There's some Projections around the place, Projection of Tactics is already listed but there's more. Projection of... Arcana/Body/Mind/Power/Realms. They're red cons to all so far so at least level 71. Not sure what they're for or even if they're attackable.

Stilled Lightning Warrior. Level 70. No idea what he drops or if he's for a quest or something.

Aneuk Tyrannist. Red con, 71+.

Pashia Clouddancer. Level 70.

Battlemaster Denik. Level 71+.

Pessessed Brute. Level 70.

Will post loot if we kill any of them!

There are six "Projections", which are lightning-model NPCs: Projection of Body, Arcana, Tactics, Soul, Mind and one other whose name I forget, despite being camped within a few yards of him last night for five hours!

Each of these gives at least two trials; one for a single group and one for a force of 18 to 54 people.

We've only tried one of the single group trials so far; the Weaponry trial from the Projection of Body. We zoned in to a two-room trial area. The zone-in room is empty, and the second room contains another lightning-model NPC on a platform surrounded by five dormant mobs.

On telling the NPC we were ready, the first of the five mobs awakened. It soon became apparent that we had 15 minutes to kill all five. Each of the five is susceptible to particular forms of weapons; the first was slashing, and the second blunt. Sadly in the fifteen minutes we only got to the second of the five mobs, despite being a group of very solidly Time/Qvic geared folks. We didn't have an absolutely ideal group makeup, and we didn't come prepared with an array of different weapons, but even so I was surprised how far we fell short of winning this trial. Mob DPS was not a serious consideration; this trial is a test of DPS with different weapon skills, we were never in danger of any deaths.

On failing, we left the trial and were locked out of that trial and five others for a couple of hours. It seems that a failure in the one group trial locks you out of all the other one group trials from the other five Projection NPCs. I would expect the same to be true of the raid trials; the lockout timer will almost certainly affect all six of the raid trials.

The purpose of the trials is not entirely clear, but it seems likely it would be related to access to the one and only keyed zone in OoW, Citadel of Anguish.

The other zone line in here leads to Riftseekers Sanctum, which has a level 69 requirement to zone in.

You enter this zone from Wall of Slaughter, it is not instanced (at least not at this time). There do appear to be a few ways to enter instanced zones from here, I do not know exactly how at this time, but did see some zone line like places that you are not able to zone directly into.
