Cryptograms and Keys

Cryptograms and Keys is a quest for level 60 in Korthia, added in Shadowlands. It rewards 1 reputation reward.

Description

The repositories of knowledge within Korthia have layers of security--for very good reasons.

Each vault requires cryptographs in order to decode and disable the barriers. They are, for lack of a better term, the keys to every secret.

Search outside the Vault for cryptographs stolen by the Mawsworn and return them to me. I will keep them, and the secrets they protect, safe.

To unlock this daily quest giver, you must complete 4/9 chapters in the Chains of Domination campaign, which unfortunately requires that character to complete a Covenant Campaign. It's a pretty big time investment (took me about 2 hours) from the basic Korthia skip on my alt.

That is every comment on this page.

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.
