This quest was so confusing. You have to pick up each of the quests from each of the Blood Elves.
For Farstrider Recommendation - You need to complete A Test of the Hunt -> Kill Enchroaching Lynx & Invasive Lynx in the nearby area.
For Blood Knight Recommendation - You need to complete A Test of Blood -> Duel Jesthenis Sunstriker on the top of the tower.
For Magister Recommendation - You need to complete A Test of the Arcane -> Charge the staff at /way 42.06, 20.28
Go to 42,20 and charge the staff

What to do
Description
I'm trying to figure out what career path to follow, but I keep second-guessing myself. The Farstriders, the Blood Knights, the Magisters... they all seem so incredible that I can't decide. I was hoping if I spoke to each and earned a recommendation, I might finally understand where I'm meant to be. Would you help me?
