I did this quest today and I noticed that using the item on the glowflies I only took credit for one each time instead of all. when I used it at a specific group that I had already collected but respawned, it didn't give me any credit. There are around 19 groups of glowflies but you need 25 to finish the quest. I relogged and I could collect the groups of glowflies that I had collected previously. I don't know why this happened because I have done this quest noumerous times with other toons in the past and you could get credit for all the glowflies of the group. So if you find yourself stuck like me , just relog.

If you can't right click the glowflies and feel confused, you probably did the World Quest version of this quest before you did the actual quest. You can't right click in the actual quest, instead you need to use Glowfly Bottle from you inventory to collect the flies.

RewardsAlluring Glowfly Lantern, Gilded Lilypad, 25g 74s, 8,150 XP

Description

Long ago when the trolls began listening to the whispering darkness, I instilled portions of my power into the totems that surround my lair. I need that power now. In the swamps north of here are glowflies. Their magical essence will aid me in drawing the stored power from the totems. Collect them and return. Then you will see what I was capable of at the height of my strength.

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 True Loa FeastNazmir · Level 20-60

    The blood troll attacks have not stopped until now. They have weakened me significantly and I need to get my strength back. My followers used to bring me offerings of meat from the nearby lands. Go and bring back a mighty feast.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Totemic RestorationNazmir · Level 20-60

    I am fed and my body is prepared. I can now be instilled with my power of old and for a time will be immune to their blood curses and leeching powers. Use the magic of the glowflies to channel my power from the totems into me. Soon you will see me restored.
