Post 9.0 patch - Something I finally figured out after looking at various quests in the chain - Gazing Into Oblivion the next quest is a level 45 quest because it rewards armor. You can do every other quest before that as a level 10 or higher, but to go any further, you have to hit level 45. So if you can't find the next quest in the chain, it probably hasn't been unlocked.

That is every comment on this page.

Requirements

Read from the Blizzard quest API.

Description

Creating the anchor will require more power than our soul shards will be able to provide. Dreadscar's troops are capable of amassing a large amount of soul shards when they defeat enemies while on missions. Once we have enough, I can harvest the supply and use them to craft the anchor.

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.

  • Black Rook Hold: An Unclaimed SoulLevel 45

    In order to create the anchor, we'll need to link something of Shinfel's to an unclaimed soul. The soul will act like a beacon, guiding Shinfel through the Twisting Nether, and back to Dreadscar Rift. Shinfel's staff should provide us with the link we need, but the soul will be a bit harder to find.
