The Kharidian Desert is an expansive region located south of the nations of Misthalin and Morytania. The desert becomes a dangerous region south of the Shantay Pass, requiring a player to drink from waterskins or other sources of water to avoid dehydration. The player will automatically drink every 90 seconds if they have a waterskin with charges in their inventory; the time between drinks can be extended by wearing heat-resistant gear. Failing to drink will cause the player to periodically lose hitpoints. Within the boundaries of towns, players are immune to the desert heat and do not need to drink.
Players may quickly travel to certain locations by using magic carpet rides, though some destinations are unavailable until certain quests have been completed.
This region also has its own achievement diary that was released on 5 March 2015, along with many other diaries.
