Description
Ah, you seek a recommendation from a Magister, do you? Very well... but first, you must prove your understanding of the arcane. Go to the nearby crystals we have for training, extract their energy, and channel it into this staff. Show me that you can harness the arcane, and I will see you worthy of my recommendation. Should you fail, don't bother returning. My time is too valuable for such trivial matters.
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 Test of Blood
Ah, you seek a Blood Knight's recommendation, do you? In that case, you'll need to prove your worth... against me. Only those with true strength and honor may join our ranks! Prepare yourself. This won't be a simple challenge, but if you can best me, I'll gladly offer my recommendation!
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- How to Train Your Protege
I did everything they asked--the trials, the lessons--and they all said I did well... but I still don't know where I truly belong. Each path felt right in its own way, and now my heart feels pulled in three directions. Please... could you help me decide?
