The cave (at given waypoint /way -4227 -2089) is crawling with various different types of rancor and is a very useful place in which to complete the Champion Rancor Killer slayer collection.

Conversation with Rancor Handler Izaryx[]

Rancor Handler Izaryx

Rancor Handler Izaryx

Rancor Handler Izaryx: So the Mysterious Rubina has spoken for you, eh? Impressive. I hear you did some work for her during which you killed some rancor?
PC: Yes, mutant rancor.
Rancor Handler Izaryx: I need you to hunt some of these abominations.
PC: What is the problem with mutant rancor?
Rancor Handler Izaryx: Other than their appearance, do you know the real difference between the true rancor and the mutations?
PC: I'm not sure.
Rancor Handler Izaryx: The rancor is actually a quite intelligent creature with mothers communicating to teach their young. In fact, I believe that they could eventually be taught to use weapons and wear armor!
PC: Unbelievable.
Rancor Handler Izaryx: Yet true. These mutations, however, are mentally unstable and highly aggressive. They corrupt the breeding of the true rancor and degenerate the favorable qualities of the entire species.
PC: So that is why they are hunted?
Rancor Handler Izaryx: It is. Now it seems that the numbers of these abominations are on the rise.
PC: Do you have any idea why?
Rancor Handler Izaryx: Not really, but Clan scouts have located a cave that often seems to be guarded by a particularly large rancor. The aura of the cave is... unsettling.
PC: So you would like me to see what's going on in that cave and help reduce the number of mutated rancor?
Rancor Handler Izaryx: Correct. Many, if not all, of the true rancor in this cave likely carry the seeds of mutation. If they must also be slain, that is acceptable.
PC: No problem.
Rancor Handler Izaryx: Collect some blood from the mutations you slay for me to study.

PC: Yes, mutant rancor.

PC: What is the problem with mutant rancor?
Fath H'ray: Other than their appearance, do you know the real difference between the true rancor and the mutations?
PC: I'm not sure.
Fath H'ray: The rancor is actually a quite intelligent creature with mothers communicating to teach their young. In fact, I believe that they could eventually be taught to use weapons and wear armor!
PC: Unbelievable.
Fath H'ray: Yet true. These mutations, however, are mentally unstable and highly aggressive. They are too stupid to respond to the whip and cannot be broken.
PC: So that is why they are hunted?
Fath H'ray: It is. Now it seems that the numbers of these abominations are on the rise.
PC: Do you have any idea why?
Fath H'ray: Not really, but Clan scouts have located a cave that often seems to be guarded by a particularly large rancor. The aura of that cave is savage and bestial.
PC: So you would like me to see what's going on in that cave and elimate mutated rancors?
Fath H'ray: Correct. Many, if not all, of the true rancor in this cave likely carry the seeds of mutation. If they must also be slain, that is acceptable.
PC: No problem.
Fath H'ray: Collect some blood from the mutations you slay for me to study.

Go to the Mutant Rancor Cave.

/way -4227 26 -2089 Rancor Cave;

Collect Blood Samples from Mutant Rancor[]

Comparing some mutant rancor blood samples with the mutant rancor teeth you already gathered should help to determine the cause of the increase in mutation.

The cave is full of normal rancors and mutant rancors. You must collect three blood samples by killing the many mutant rancors that you find inside. They will not always drop them. Mutant rancors are CL 89 elites with special buffs; they are a tough fight.

Return to Izaryx / Return to Fath H'ray[]

Take the blood samples you've gathered back to Izaryx the Rancor Handler. / Take the blood samples you've gathered back to Fath H'ray the Mistress of the Rancor.

Conversation with Rancor Handler Izaryx[]

Rancor Handler Izaryx: You have the blood samples?
PC: I do.
Rancor Handler Izaryx: Excellent. Let me compare these with the teeth you provided earlier and see what can be seen.
PC: You: Can you pinpoint their origin?
Rancor Handler Izaryx: Yes, with the aid of Arch Witch Azzenaj, I was able to. Go there and find the source of the mutations.

Conversation with Fath H'ray[]

Fath H'ray: You have the blood samples?
PC: I do.
Fath H'ray: Excellent. Let me compare these with the teeth you provided earlier and see what can be seen.
