== Encounter and location boundaries ==
See [[Excavation Site: Wetlands#Historical client encounter names|the existing client-versus-guide comparison]]. The historical client name row is different evidence from a required encounter route. This new original creature identity and quest connection do not establish a fourth mandatory boss, an event trigger, exact position or a combat sequence.

Unversioned creature-page comments mix outside and inside sightings; no coordinate, route or outdoor quest-credit rule is imported from them. The original body does not establish combat level, health, faction or current spawn conditions here.
