Deactivating the Spire

Deactivating the Spire is a Horde-only quest for level 1-30 in Eversong Woods (Burning Crusade). It is step 25 of 35 in the Eversong Woods storyline. The quest's turn-in marker is in Eversong Woods at 67.8, 56.5. It rewards 1 reputation reward and 3,100 experience.

Description

As you may know, Magister Duskwither sent me back here to shut down the power sources that feed the Spire. There are three of them, each located in a different place inside.

Unfortunately, I appear to be too late, and Duskwither Spire has been overrun with strange, magical creatures. While I haven't the expertise to accomplish this task, surely a <class>, such as yourself, could do so easily?

The location stated above is not right. You have to move a little forward and kill the mobs because you have to take the stairs. And THERE is the Translocation Orb that will take you to the first Power Source to deactivate. Location for that Translocation Orb is 68:51 ( I am standing on it).

Once you got translocated, you kill the mobs around the First Power of Source; then you climb the stairs to the Second One and once more up the stairs for the Third and last one. Then you take the Translocation Orb behind the Third Power Source and that will take you back to the first Translocation Orb.

(The Translocation Orb stated above (55:44) is located in Silvermoon City and will take you to Undercity.)

    The Amani and the sin'dorei have a long history of mutual dislike and open hostility. That doesn't prevent me from appreciating a fellow craftsman's work, <name>. I've come across pieces of Amani weaponry and I must admit I'm impressed by the quality of their work.
