NOTES:
Spire of Blood requires you to go up, into the building. When you are walking up the Spire, you will come to a doorway that leads down, with two staircases leading up to either side. Go up either way and then into the upper level of the building to receive credit.

Spire of Decay & Spire of Pain require you to go into the building. Just go straight in.

Description

Sage Aeire has finished the shroud. Take it with you and travel to the Temple City of En'kilah. Don the cloak within the city's bounds to hide yourself from most of the Scourge there. This will be our best opportunity to gather information about the enemy's fortifications and leaders. While wearing the cloak, scout the three large spires on the grounds of the city. While the shroud will shield you from most of the Scourge, the En'kilah abominations will be able to find you if you get too close.

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.

  • The Bad EarthBorean Tundra · Level 10-30

    By curing the hides with the blighted earth outside the Temple City, Sage Aeire believes she can create a cloak which will cause most of the Scourge minions to ignore your presence. You should blend right in, she says. She'd best be correct.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • The Fall of Taunka'le VillageBorean Tundra · Level 10-30

    We are lost, <name>. This place has been our home for many generations, but it is no longer safe. There remains only death... Death and a memory of what used to be. I have called for the evacuation of Taunka'le.
