Worthy of note : if, for whatever reason, you have not completed these Kor'ik quests before reaching revered, it's possible to end up in a situation where you do the revered quest, and .... **** SPOILER ALERT ****.... you assassinate Kor'ik as it's revealed he's a traitor. Leaving you with no turn in NPC for these quests, he'll be gone from the cave too ---> in that case, you can abandon the quests and obtain slightly altered versions of them, with different ID's, from the NPC whom helps you on that revered chain, Zar'ik !

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.

  • Extending Our CoverageDread Wastes · Level 30-35

    The Klaxxi'va hear another paragon. His cries are weak and lost in darkness. The signal must be strengthened. There is a tower in Amberglow Hollow that has been silent for many years. It must sing; the Klaxxi demand it! This time I will go with you. You will help me repair it.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Better With AgeDread Wastes · Level 30-35

    It is a crime to harvest the young trees, but a much bigger crime to waste the amber. Young amber is not as strong, but the Klaxxi need it to continue the fight. We will bring them more and they will sing my praises! Gather the young amber. We will store it until it is aged and can be consumed.
