Boar’s Back is a northern forest region of Vale Sangora, west of Svartrau.

Why it matters

  • Pearly and Precious — the Sanzhana side quest (branching from Yawning Burrow) is set here.
  • Boar’s Back Tower — at Shrike’s Crag, west of Svartrau, one of the 11 Scouting Towers. Its chest holds the Potent Blood Manual + Duelist’s Pendant (epic amulet) — the highest-value non-city tower reward in the game.

The tower climbs only at night (Shadowstep + Planeshift) and costs no time segments. Given its reward, it is the single best tower to prioritize if you are short on night time — the full tower list and the 30-day timer guide both cover the trade-offs. Region context: world guide.
