How to start Save the Mourning Snakes
Speak with Junah near Dragon Statue Plaza at the Virga Island Pagan Village on or after 08/19. After singing to the islanders, they opened up to her a bit by mentioning that monsters have been raiding tombs just off the coast. She’ll then ask for you in exchange for telling you the songstress’s secrets. After agreeing, she’ll say the area is called the Orbwise Path.
Save the Mourning Snakes Guide
Gather Intel
Travel to Golden Deer Hearth in the Virga Island Pagan Village and speak with the Talkative Mustari informant there. Purchase the “Bird Monster in Orbwise Path” intel to learn about the Kokasadors there. They have a skill that repels non-magic attacks but are weak to fire. They can also attack with ice attacks that inflict Frostbite.
Travel to Orbwise Path
Return to the Gauntlet Runner and then use the Round Table to travel to the Orbwise Path. It will take most of the day to get there.
Defeat the Kokasadors
To reach the Kokasadors, you’ll want to follow the first area of the Orbwise Path clockwise to find a set of stairs leading you down to the lower area. From there, keep going clockwise to reach the door to the boss’s chamber.

Boss Fight
The Kokasadors is a Level 42 Bird Monster that is weak to fire and repels dark. It will use single-target ice and electric attacks on individual party members or an AOE dark attack that can hit everyone. It also likes to cast Terakarn on itself, repelling Slash, Pierce, and Strike attacks.
Once its head gets low, it will use its Peck of Death attack, targeting any ally not with the Rakukaja buff, instantly killing them. Our strategy for this fight was to hit it with fire using the Wizard as our main damage dealer. We also put Medi on Junah to help with healing as needed.
Kokasadors Attacks
- Thunderstirke Thrust – single-target electric attack
- Blizzaton – single-target ice attack
- Tetrakarn – Erects a barrier repelling Slash/Pierce/Strike attacks
- Mammudodyne – AOE Dark attack
- Peck of Death – One-Hit KO
Rewards
You’ll be rewarded with points in Imagination for completing this quest.
