For credit for this, you need to go to the Valdrakken Treasury Hoard (bank) at 59.16, 54.81 and click on the Storage Chest, the Roasted Ram (inn) and click on the Goblet at 47.0, 47.74, and the Artisans Market at 34.66, 61.19 and click on the Consortium Ledger. Note that clicking each item begins a cast/channel that you need to complete, dont just click and run, or you'll have to go back/do it again, so wait for the channel to complete. Completing this quest in conjunction with Nowhere To Hide is ideal as the Primalist Infiltrators needed for that quest will spawn nearby after you click each item.

Description

The Primalists have been spewing their propaganda among the citizens of Valdrakken. Our enemies are too wily to say anything in the presence of my Scalesworn, but perhaps you might be able to get close enough to eavesdrop on their conversations. I have marked locations on your map for further investigation. You may want to visit the Transmogrifier to see about changing your look to avoid any suspicion. Take this enchanted stone, as long as you have it on hand we will be able to communicate.

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.

  • Nowhere to HideThaldraszus · Level 40-70

    Welcome to Valdrakken, <race>. The climate in the city has been a bit warm of late, and I do not mean the weather. The Primalists are skulking about, fomenting dissent among the citizens of our city. Our foes are crafty.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Southern ExposureThaldraszus · Level 40-70

    Based on your discoveries I suspect the Primalists are attacking Commander Eranog's Garrison at South Hold. But, my Scalesworn cannot leave the city as that would be exactly what the Primalists are hoping for. I need your help again, <name>.
