East Commonlands is a sprawling grassy plain east of Freeport that serves as the main newbie and travel corridor for the Freeport side of Antonica, and its underground tunnel is the historic hub of all player trading. Creatures range from harmless fire beetles and snakes up to Deathfist orc camps and a roaming high-level griffin.
Getting thereIt borders West Freeport to the east, West Commonlands to the west, Nektulos Forest to the south, and Northern Desert of Ro through a tunnel behind the stone spire in the northwest. Travelers crossing between the Freeport and Neriak or Ro regions almost always pass through here.
EnemiesLow levels fight fire beetles, snakes, and decaying skeletons, while mid levels tackle giant spiders, young kodiaks, pumas, ghouls, and lesser mummies. The signature threat is the Deathfist orc camps with pawns, legionnaires, and centurions that hit hard for their level.

Dangers
The main hazard is the roaming griffin, which is far higher level than most zone residents and hits fast, so newbies should watch the skies. The Deathfist orc camps can also swarm and overwhelm solo players who pull carelessly.
Tips
Use the East Commonlands Tunnel as your trading and gathering point, and hug the roads while watching for the griffin. Groups can farm the Deathfist orc camps efficiently, and the northwest tunnel is the quick route toward North Ro and Freeport.
