Rare spawns can reward equipment, quest items and unusual hunter pets. Use the zone sections below to find each encounter and see what is worth collecting.

Reading the maps: numbers match the entries in each section. Repeated numbers show alternative search points for the same creature. Rares may move around these areas; a marker does not guarantee a spawn or a drop.

Respawns and hunting tips

• No universal timer: respawns differ, and a dependable schedule is not confirmed for these encounters.
• Mystmane: players report long waits; treat them as experiences, not a countdown.
• Check the whole search area: some creatures patrol or use several locations.
• Keep questing between checks and bring help for elites.
• Hunters: use our Hunter Pets guide for pet families and taming.
