Arachnophobia

Kill Besseleth and bring Besseleth's Fang to Maggran at Sun Rock Retreat.
Besseleth's Fang

Description

Warning: Proceed into Sishir Canyon west of here at your own risk.

Besseleth and her eight-legged children of the forest have claimed this canyon as their webbed lair.

Maggran Earthbinder in Sun Rock Retreat has placed a bounty on Besseleth. Slay her and bring proof of your killing to Maggran; there you will receive your reward for disposing this eight-legged menace.

Reward

You can choose one of these awards:
Claystone Shortsword
Clear Crystal Rod

Progress

Besseleth is a ruthless predator... I fear for those that travel Webwinder Path at night. It's then that she and her children prey upon innocent travelers. I myself fell prey to her two-foot fang of death, but luckily I was able to fend her off and get to safety. I would give anything to see that monster destroyed.

Completion

Good hunting, <name>! Besseleth is an old predator in these parts... I will miss her not. Take this reward as a token for being the forest champion.

<Maggran rubs the wound caused by Besseleth.>

Perhaps now many more will travel to Sun Rock Retreat without fearing what lurks in the dark.

Gains

Upon completion of quests, get:
  • 165 experience (9 90 at max. level)
  • 250 Reputation with Thunder Bluff

coords are 53,72

The elite is bigger and a red color so it's easy to distinguish it...

A healer will be needed if you wanna do this quest at lvl 20-24ish as the spider will have much more hp than you...

He has decent DPS and can poison so be prepared.

I solo-ed as a lvl 20 BE pally

the normal (non-elite) spiders nearby drop a small venom sac occasionally. These can be made into anti-venom by a trained first-aider, which proves rather useful in this fight. Particularly when alone

Was able to do it as a lvl20 lock with my Voidy. Had to use a Healthstone and a Health pot. When she snares the voidy fear her.

Be advised that Besseleth has a very small pursuit radius and will disengage (and thus heal) if you accidentally draw her too far away from where she hangs out.

From where you got the quest, go to the west up a hill and you will see little green spider-type enemies, if you look on the clear other side, you will see a bigger red spider, that is who you have to kill and loot.

When you enter the area, stay on the right side. Up a little hill is Besseleth. Not too difficult. Found it with two mobs, but they weren't very aggro. Pulled one at a time.
