This area is generally the starting place for all characters, and features a sparse amount of enemies to allow new players to level easily. There are areas in which enemies are much stronger than new players (level 13 or higher), however, they are limited, and the monsters are for squadmissions, which a squad of low level characters can take out the higher level mobs.
There's also a high level instance in Wilderness called Guardian Prominence which is guarded by a couple of level 35 Thrax. However, you will not have to deal with this instance until you reach Plateau (around level 30-35), so stay away from the entrance or you will most likely get killed.
According to AFS Intelligence reports, the northern “Wilderness” region of Concordia holds several key Eloh artifacts. These artifacts seem to hold value to Bane forces and have been linked to their increased presence in the area. Currently, these artifacts are being guarded by the Foreans, but the AFS is stepping up its own security measures.
Primary priority for the region is to gather Eloh technology. Secondary priority is to eliminate any Bane targets of opportunity. Due to the challenges faced bringing the Foreans into the AFS, Command HQ believes this is a good opportunity to make it clear to them that they made the right decision by joining us in combating the Bane.
