Ourobore Caves is an area in the Harathi Hinterlands. Inside this vast natural cave system a large group of skritt have established a scratch called Skyshine Scratch.[1] This cavern winds deeper into the hillside. At its end resides the scratch's veteran leadership who are guarding their treasure.

Notes[edit]

  • On some of the buildings and ledges are skritt who may appear as allies or ambient creatures.
  • To get the Splendid Chest, head north from Grey Gritta's Waypoint into Ourobore Caves. Always going uphill, bear slightly-left a short distance then slightly-right a short distance then left again in almost a complete circle until you see several Veteran Skritt guarding the Splendid Chest.

Trivia[edit]

  • This shape, along with the name of the cave, references the Ouroboros, an ancient symbol visualised as a snake eating its own tail.
