WHERE & HOW TO FARM

Where to farm

Start with Sorrel in Amberfell; the quest leads through Havenhythe to Shuruk-Ba and the Crimson Throne.

Heralds of Crimson is the main progression gate for Havenhythe Part II’s eastern content and the Ghrazi Blood Knights. It begins with Sorrel in Amberfell and leads through the region toward Shuruk-Ba. Prepare your skill levels and supplies before starting, especially for the dangerous high-level Strigoi on the approach. The quest is a one-time unlock; after completion, use the newly opened activities and boss as separate repeatable goals.

GET STARTED

How to farm

Before you go

  • Members access and completion of Secrets of Amberfell.
  • 51 Crafting, 55 Herblore, 65 Mining and 60 Smithing.
  • Combat supplies suitable for dangerous high-level enemies on the Shuruk-Ba approach.
  1. Confirm Secrets of Amberfell and all listed skill thresholds are complete.
  2. Speak to Sorrel in Amberfell to begin Heralds of Crimson.
  3. Follow the quest stages through Havenhythe, completing each objective before moving on.
  4. Prepare at Linbog Village bank before the dangerous Shuruk-Ba approach.
  5. Engage the high-level Strigoi cautiously and keep supplies ready for magic attacks.
  6. Continue through the story objectives to the Crimson Throne.
  7. Complete the quest and verify full Havenhythe and boss access.

Farming tips

  • Bank and prepare at Linbog Village before the dangerous approach.
  • The quest unlocks access; it does not replace the separate preparation needed for the duo endgame fight.

Repeat, collect and use

The quest is a one-time progression unlock. Repeatable Havenhythe activities and boss encounters become available after completion.

Common mistakes

  • Starting below a skill gate: meet all listed levels before beginning.
  • Approaching Shuruk-Ba without supplies: prepare at the bank before entering the dangerous section.
  • Assuming quest completion completes boss farming: form a duo and prepare separately for the encounter.

When to stop or switch

Stop when the quest is complete and full access is confirmed; then choose a specific activity or boss goal rather than repeating quest stages.
