Lakkari Tar Pits

Last wiki revision 2021-12-19

The Lakkari Tar Pits are lakes of thick, foul-smelling black tar pits found in northern Un'Goro Crater, just below Marshal's Refuge. Flowers, Tarblossoms grow at the bottom of these pits, which have gone unnoticed for a long time. Tar beasts live in the area among several giant bones of creatures that got stuck here.

The only creatures that remain around the Lakkari Tar Pits are those that get stuck in its grip and scavengers looking for easy prey. The bones of hundreds of beasts jut out from the surface of the tar strewn across the shore.

  • Tar Beast
  • Tar Creeper
  • Tar Lurker
  • Tar Lord
  • Gormashh

In the north central area of Un'Goro, in the area of sparsest tree cover, lie these curious lakes of black tar. Creatures that venture too close get stuck and perish in the dark depths. The bones of perhaps thousands of reptiles and other beasts lie strewn about the place, some of them ancient.

  • During the Fourth War, the spirit of Torcali passed through the area.
  • Prior to the Cataclysm, swimming in these tar pits had no effect, it was like swimming in normal water. However, now swimming in the tar pits puts a slowing debuff on players, making it actually feel like swimming through something thicker than normal water.
  • This debuff makes players swim at 20% speed.
