==Unique Aspects & Loot in Despair==
* [[Recipe: Potion of the Master Death Mage]] - Despair is the only zone in which this recipe drops. It drops as loot from [[Elrin Nayer]] (a boss lich).
* [[Recipe: Potion of the Stalking Cat]] - Despair is the only zone in which this recipe drops. It drops as loot from the [[Elves]]. Note that a more potent version of this recipe ([[Recipe: Potion of the Stalking Cat, Aether]]) drops as loot in the [[Breach]].
* [[Recipe: Iron Studded Strip of Leather]] - drops as loot from Liches and Skeletons in Despair.
* [[Wax Cylinder - Halls of Despair]] - only drops in this zone. Confirmed drops have come from [[Elrin Nayer]] (a boss [[Lich]]).
* [[Black Dragon]] - this is one of only 3 zones where the black dragon spawns (the other places are [[Southern Grunvald Barrens]] and [[Plains Encounter]]).
* Puzzles that must be solved in order to pass deeper into Despair.
::: {{#spoiler:show=Spoiler: Opening the Outer Gate|hide=Opening the Outer Gate|When you get to the plateau where the gate is, face the gate, then run to the left until you fall off a cliff into some water. At one end of the water, there is a [[Spider]] nest. You have to kill all of the spider waves (the final wave includes a [[Ferocious Warp Spider]]). Killing the final wave of spiders will open the gate. Swim back into the water and click on the vine to get back up the cliff. Then run back to the gate. If you wait too long after you kill the final spider wave, the door will close...so run up there pronto!}}
