I died during this quest to a rare inside the (semi-instanced?) building. My ghost spawned outside, but there's no way back to my corpse and no NPC to rezz me. No idea where the next nearest graveyard is, and character unstuck doesn't move me anywhere else. EDIT: fixed this by flying out to sea and dying of fatigue (as a ghost) and spawning at a spirit healer in a different location. Still a pretty bad bug though

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.

  • Obsidian OathstoneThe Waking Shores · Level 10-70

    When Neltharion became the Earth-Warder, he swore an oath to protect this world, <name>. To safeguard the deep places of the earth and, with his flight, to serve as Azeroth's defenders. The Obsidian Oathstone represents that promise.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Forging a New FutureThe Waking Shores · Level 10-70

    The forge of the Earth-Warder is the most powerful of all the dragon forges in existence. Our ancestors used it to create the strongest weapons and armor to defend Azeroth. Within the hearth of that forge is the power necessary to reform the shattered fragments of the Oathstone.
