Erud's Crossing is a small forested island in the sea between Odus and Antonica, serving as a stop on the ferry route and a hunting ground for a wide mix of wildlife, undead sailors, and casters. Monster levels span a broad range, with common newbie fauna near the docks and much tougher creatures wandering the interior. Will o' wisps make the island a popular spot for farming lightstones.
Getting thereThe island is reached by boat, with ferries running from Erudin and from Qeynos, and the docks travel along the shore before arriving. A zone line on the island leads to Kerra Island for those crossing to the Kerran homeland.
EnemiesExpect beetles, spiders, snakes, will o' wisps, island madmen, vampire bats, sharks and piranhas in the water, plus zombie and skeleton sailors that can spawn in overwhelming numbers.

Dangers
The island has few safe edges and no friendly guards, so there is little escape if a fight goes bad. Mobs assist heavily: killing beetles can anger Kerrans and spawn island madmen, spiders coordinate across the island, and zombie sailors can spawn en masse into deadly swarms.
Tips
Will o' wisps give strong experience and drop lightstones and greater lightstones that sell well, making them a prime farming target. Pull carefully to open ground and watch for unpredictable adds given the small landmass.
