Ascalon's Eastern Frontier was once a lush green land of rolling hills. Now, as with the rest of Ascalon, it is a blasted piece of barren land littered with ruins. Large sections of the once great wall lie broken and breached in several places as the Charr make their presence felt, establishing a foothold in the northeast. Aside from the Charr, the Grawl appear to have flourished as well, having a heavy presence to the northwest. Further south, the broken land has become a haven for Devourers waiting to ambush unsuspecting prey.

Getting there[edit]

This area lies to the east of Frontier Gate and the Ruins of Surmia mission outpost. Several secondary quests of the Ascalon region take place here.

Dialogue[edit]

Once, intro to Caravan in Trouble.

Cynn: You left?
Caravan Guard: Y...yes.
Cynn: In the middle of a fight, you just ran off?
Caravan Guard: There were storm riders everywhere! I could've been killed!
Mhenlo: What happened to the others? The merchant and the other guards?
Caravan Guard: I don't know. I...didn't look back.
Mhenlo: Balthazar does not look kindly upon cowards.
Cynn: Neither do I.
Mhenlo: That'll be enough Cynn. This man will have to explain himself and his actions when he reaches the Mists.

Notes[edit]

Bug Bug.Occasionally a group of Grawl might spawn inside a rock on one of the cliff faces between Surmia and Frontier Gate, preventing you from retrieving their drops.
Bug Bug.There is a cliff just east of Ruins of Surmia that does not clip correctly, allowing you to slide down.

Trivia[edit]

  • According to a list on Guild Wars Guru, which seems to list various beta locations, this zone was previously called The Shift.[1]
