Now, you'll find her in the Monastery graveyard raising our dead as zombies! We cannot abide this defilement! If you are truly our ally, you will help us destroy her." NPC Quest Dialog After InitiatingĪkara: "Blood Raven fought valiantly against Diablo in the catacombs beneath Tristram.She was never quite the same afterwards. Blood Raven, one of our finest captains in the battle against Diablo at Tristram, was also one of the first to be corrupted by Andariel.

Once Blood Raven has been defeated, her death animation, which most quest bosses have, will kill any remaining undead monsters in the cemetery itself but not those in the perimeter of the zone. Blood Raven can be found within the cemetery gates, surrounded by her army of Zombies and skeletons in fact, she will continue to raise the dead as you battle her, so kill her as quickly as you can. Blood Raven moves around quite fast while shooting arrows and flame arrows at you, so a weapon or charm that adds cold damage will prove very useful here, since it will slow her down, thus making her easier to attack. This will ensure that there will be fewer creatures trying to surround and attack you while you take on Blood Raven in the center of the cemetery. Once there, you may want to kill all the skeletons, zombies, and hungry dead found at the outer edges of the Burial Grounds (outside the cemetery gates). To find Blood Raven, you must travel to the Burial Grounds, located just off of the Cold Plains.
Your mission is to defeat Blood Raven, which will, in turn, earn you Kashya's respect. She will inform you that a corrupted Rogue named Blood Raven has been raising the dead as zombies and she must be stopped. This quest will become available after completing the Den of Evil, and can be activated by talking to Kashya.
