Zone Information
A forest-themed zone with some lore about the Menders, a successor to the Zigur faction. This is an optional zone outside the main plot of the Embers of Rage campaign.
Forest floor
The first level of this zone is on the floor of the forest, with corridors between rows of trees and clearings. The entrance is always in the south of the map. The exit to the next level is a huge primal tree in a clearing, which can be climbed up (a prompt will automatically appear when stepping on the tree). Treants will spawn out of the trees from time to time, similar to the Sludgenest in the Age of Ascendancy campaign. Treants spawned in this manner do not provide XP, but can still drop loot. This can be useful if the player needs to farm for equipment or tinkering ingredients, since lone treants are usually much easier to handle than patrols on the world map. The level of the treant spawns will gradually increase over time.
Canopy
The second level is in the canopy of a tree, where five Crystallized Primal Roots are spread out among the branches. These bosses drop the primal core ingredient, which is required for certain tinkering recipes. There are no obstructions to line of sight on this level, so players must be careful about drawing too much attention from enemies. The walls and empty space between the branches will allow projectiles and spells to travel over them, but will block movement (except for levitating characters) and area of effect attacks. To return to the previous level, the player can return to the middle of the level and climb back down the tree trunk to the ground (by manually changing level).
If the player kills all five Crystallized Primal Roots without killing any uncorrupted treants, they will earn the achievement Mender. Uncorrupted treants are called "treant", corrupted treants are called "crystalbark". Both kinds can spawn normally, awaken from the trees on level 1, or be summoned by the Crystallized Primal Roots.
