    Arcane Legends' level 76 expansion takes us to the distant Arcanite Mountain region and a lush green settlement called "Vardan Valley." This peaceful town is the center of a secretive frontier society's plan to colonize the resource-rich hills and spread their faithful word. Unfortunately these plans have been crushed to a halt by the emergence of a violent subterranean species called "The Mogera." Vardan Valley was decimated in the sudden Mogera attack. Desperate for help, the valley folk have sent an emissary to Brackenridge to recruit help from Arlor's legendary heroes.


    A Letter...

    Check the mailbox in town for a letter from Vardan Valley's emissary "Goody Greensap." She is charged with entreating capable fighters to come to the valley folks' defense - and can be found in the Windmoore Tavern doing just that.


    A Journey...

    Speak with Goody Greensap in the tavern to learn more about Vardan Valley and the perils that the valley folk face at the hands of the Mogera. Then sail to the Arcanite Mountains, hike along the Valley Pass, and stride through the Valley Gates. In the center of Vardan Valley town you will find Goody's itinerant husband, Farmer Greensap: the duly-elected leader of his imperiled commune.


    Beasts from below...

    Your first task will be to investigate the massive sink-hole on the north side of town. Mogera burst from this hole during the attack, taking the villagers by surprise - and taking their lives in wholesale fashion.

    Explore the Mogera Lair. Face the terrors that lie below. Save Vardan Valley!

    Defeat the Mogera in their lair to advance progress toward two (2) cyclical event areas accessible from Vardan Valley town: the Valley Frontier and the Greensap Farm.

    When enough Mogera have been defeated (check the World Map for goal progress) the villagers will attempt to erect new settlements in the Valley Frontier territory. Speak with Olivia Wells, the Valley's chief builder, for more information.

    Travel through the Valley Frontier portal and protect the development from attacking Mogera! You will face multiple waves of powerful enemies and the terrifying "Skul Dozer:" a massive earth-moving machine driven by an evil disembodied Mogera brain!

    The Greensap Farm

    Likewise, when sufficient attack has been sustained against the Mogera the Greensap Farm will become available. Farmer Greensap will provide information about the area's availability and will urge you to harvest all of the ripened resources.

    You will find marauding Mogera attacking the farm resources. If the Mogera succeed, you will not be able to harvest the crop! So... stop them. Preserve and collect as many raw resources as you can. Beware the approach of "Jord Skratch:" a cruel and clever Mogera at the helm of a dangerous power-suit!

    Defeating "Skull Dozer" and "Jord Skratch" will advance a final goal: The Valley Gates Gauntlet!

    The Valley Gates

    On the southeast side of Vardan Valley you will find the Nott named Kwelas Therax standing guard.

    When the Mogera's first-tier bosses (Skull Dozer, Jord Skratch) have suffered a large number of defeats, the Mogera will launch an all-out desperate attack on the valley's most vulnerable zone: the Valley Gates.

    Enter the Valley Gates and repel as many waves of Mogera as you can! Face the villainous "Dred Duggar:" an even more evil Mogera in an even more powerful suit, and send him packing.

    And the gauntlet cyclical map opens after a certain number of total bosses killed in the other 2 maps? Skulldozer and skratch?
