Balance of Elements

Balance of Elements is a quest for level 10-45 in Highmountain. It is step 11 of 13 in the Rivermane Tribe storyline. The quest's turn-in marker is in Highmountain at 38.4, 61.2. It rewards 1 reputation reward, 6,150 experience and money.

Description

The drogbar place their foul crystals in our cave to absorb the magic within, and then they collect them when they are saturated with power.

We must recover the crystals so the magic might dissipate and be suffused back into the waters, or else the drogbar will find ways to corrupt the magic to their own purposes.
