If Lorna Crowley disappears when you try to spar with her, it's due to a phasing bug.

I wasn't able to spar with until I completed Cities in Dust, which is part of a long quest chain. Once I completed that last quest, then I was able to spar with her. It's a 57 long quest chain so it's going to take some time.

Description

It's always good to see someone with your history continue to speak to us old dogs, {name}. Eitrigg and I have been talking about legacy recently. Did you know we both fought with the Valarjar against the Legion? Interesting how long histories can intertwine. But our real legacy is our children. I wonder if you would have time to check in with them both. While you're there, make sure they're keeping their skills sharp.

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.

  • The Fragrance of the DunesArcantina · Level 83-90

    I miss the smell of the desert. It is the fragrance of freedom in a wild land. I would love to refresh that scent memory. While you're there, grab something from the caravans. This place could use some nomad personality. Maybe hop over to Shatterstone Harbor and get something for the big guy.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Moments in a MugArcantina · Level 83-90

    A man who knows his way around a drink deserves the finest brew. I have just the thing in mind for my friend, Flynn. The ingredients I need are within my family's brewery in the Valley of Four Winds.
