How to use Beasts of Khorinis IV

Beasts of Khorinis IV is in Shrat's hidden hut deep in the swamp. Bring the volume to Cavalorn, confirm the shark-skin lesson, then collect two Swampshark chitin plates and one skin; one Swamp Shark can provide the listed set if the skill is active.

Best use

Open the Swamp Camp map, reach Shrat's hidden hut, and take the volume before hunting.

Safe move

Save before entering the deep swamp, keep the volume for Cavalorn, and check the trophy lesson before killing the Swamp Shark you plan to use for the hand-in.

Avoid this mistake

A Swamp Shark is a serious fight for an early or hybrid build. Do not enter the swamp only for materials if your save lacks healing, space to retreat, or the required lesson.

Plan with it, confirm in your save Save before entering the deep swamp, keep the volume for Cavalorn, and check the trophy lesson before killing the Swamp Shark you plan to use for the hand-in.

Volume IV swamp route

Players planning a deep Swamp Camp detour and needing the full Swamp Shark material set.

  1. Use the Swamp Camp map and follow the deep-swamp route to Shrat's hidden hut.
  2. Take Beasts of Khorinis IV to Cavalorn and confirm the shark-skin lesson.
  3. Find a Swamp Shark, collect two chitin plates and one skin, and keep all three materials.
  4. Return to Cavalorn and check the hand-in dialogue before selling or crafting the trophies.

Save before the hidden-hut approach and before the Swamp Shark fight; the deep swamp is a costly route to repeat.

Deep Swamp Preparation

Volume IV is a compact book-to-hunt route, but both ends are easy to underestimate: Shrat's hut is hidden deep in the swamp and the matching beast is much tougher than ordinary wildlife. Plan the hut, trainer, and fight as one trip.
