Bloodblight Swamp

RuneScape: Dragonwilds guide · gathering sap and summoning General Velgar ✓ Checked against sources

Bloodblight Swamp is a hazardous, toxic wetland in the Ghornfell region corrupted by poisonous mist and tainted water. Explorers come here during the Dragon Slayer quest to gather Bloodwood Sap from a colossal tree within the southern Garou stronghold. This gathered sap serves as an essential crafting material for the Challenge Horn, which is placed at the Dragonkin Altar at Velgar's Rise to summon General Velgar.
