Quest Log

Death Comes From On High

Death Comes From On High is a quest for level 8-30. It is step 6 of 58 in The Scarlet Enclave storyline. The quest's turn-in marker is in Plaguelands: The Scarlet Enclave at 51.4, 35.2. It rewards 6,200 experience.

Description

Towering above this platform is the eye of Acherus. From it you will call forth a probe that you will then use to analyze Scarlet Crusade fortifications at New Avalon. The eye has a host of powers that should make the acquisition of this data simple.

Use the eye's siphon to analyze the forge, town hall, hold, and chapel. The eye's control mechanisms are located on either side of this platform. Waste no more time, <name>.

The Scourge will have this place. The Lich King commands it!

Where to go

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • The Eye Of AcherusLevel 8-30

    Behold, Acherus, the grand citadel of death! It has no equal in this world! Not even the mighty Naxxramas could withstand a direct assault from the Ebon Hold. Looming above the face of the necropolis is the all-seeing eye of Acherus.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • The Might Of The ScourgeLevel 8-30

    Listen well, death knight, for I give to you the words that will start a war. My final judgment has been passed: Death. To. All. None shall stand so boldly against the might of the Scourge without reprisal! As you have served me well in your first task, so too shall you serve me in your next task.
