Reward details

Reputation: The Klaxxi +130

These Mantid Elders are untouched by the corruption and insanity that has overtaken the remainder of the Mantid Swarm. They seek to work with the races of Pandaria to restore their Queen to glory.

Reputation group: Mists of Pandaria.

Other quests in Dread Wastes that reward The Klaxxi reputation: Psycho Mantid (+250), Preserved in Amber (+500), Wakening Sickness (+250), The Klaxxi Council (+250), Kunchong Treats (+130), Fires and Fears of Old (+500).

Currency: Lesser Charm of Good Fortune x 2

Possession of the Lesser Charms of Good Fortune will result in great happiness and the eventual conversion into Warforged Seals, which allow players to risk a coin to receive a bonus reward from raid encounters.

Item facts are the current retail client’s (ItemSparse); the specialisations for a pick-one item are the ones the Blizzard quest API lists; faction and currency text is the client’s own. Lowest listed price = the US commodity auction house now.

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.
