If you haven't played a Discipline Priest since 2004, you'll find things very different now, as I did, in the process of dying. It may be more efficient than Holy but it sure is hard to heal yourself (as opposed to the tank, I guess). Or maybe I just misread the Owner's Manual. Save time and trouble by switching back to any spec you'd like and you'll get the job done quicker and easier. This goes for the rest of the quest series, too.

Where to go

Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • A New ThreatLevel 10-45

    If you seek the Nexus, I would warn not to rush headlong. There are strange happenings in Coldarra, and it would be best to gather some information before proceeding. During my last visit to the Dragonblight, I sensed unusual energies from the Azure Dragonshrine.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Eyes of the DragonLevel 10-45

    You should travel at once to Coldarra in Borean Tundra, <name>. There, I would recommend you scout out a few key locations and report back to me. I know the area well, and should be able to tell you how to proceed. Make haste!

Other quests with this name

This one: Priest · Level 10-45.
