Cracks in Time

Cracks in Time is a quest for level 40-70 in Thaldraszus. It is step 12 of 15 in the Time Management storyline. The quest's turn-in marker is in Thaldraszus at 59.6, 81.7. It rewards 1 reputation reward, 9,500 experience and money.

Description

When the temple locked down, the Wardens got sealed up with the temple doors. We need to pop that stasis bubble to get them out! Unfortunately, that'll need a fully empowered Timewalker staff...

I know! You can drain the crystals here on the platforms! That should power up your staff enough.

They have their own stasis fields, so just yank them out and absorb their energy with your staff.

And don't feel bad if they shatter--the power is still there, even if it's in pieces!

Where to go

    I'm so glad you're here! I need you to stabilize the situation here on the platforms while Dante and Zera help me hold our infinite dragon friend in place. The temple's security measures locked Eternus in a stasis bubble when she tried to take control of our Oathstone.

After this quest

  • Quelling CausalitiesThaldraszus · Level 40-70
