What to do

StorylineZangarmarsh, step 2 of 64
RewardsVolatile Healing Potion, 10g 50s, 5,150 XP

Description

While the druids from the expedition have made themselves busy studying plants and researching the lakes, I've made it my business to deal with the hostiles in the area. Ever since we set foot in Zangarmarsh, the naga have launched lethal attacks against us without warning. We've done our best to keep them at bay, but our resources are limited. I want you to go to the various naga strongholds in Zangarmarsh and show them that we're not to be crossed. Bring me their claws as proof of your victories.

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.

  • Disturbance at Umbrafen LakeZangarmarsh · Level 10-30

    We came to Outland expecting to find small pockets of life. What we discovered in Zangarmarsh was a lush environment with a thriving ecosystem. Our initial assessment of the area was deceiving, however.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • As the Crow FliesZangarmarsh · Level 10-30

    We must determine how widespread the naga's activity truly is and react accordingly. Exploring each body of water in Zangarmarsh could be a lengthy undertaking. If you allow me to, I will use my magic to mold your shape to one more suited to scouting the marsh.

Zangarmarsh has 64 steps, from Disturbance at Umbrafen Lake to Message to the Daggerfen.
