Flow Control

Flow Control is a quest for level 45 in Suramar. It is step 4 of 8 in the A Change of Seasons storyline. The quest's turn-in marker is in Suramar at 37.1, 46.5. It rewards 1 reward item, 1 reputation reward, 6,150 experience and money.

Description

If all goes as planned, the manastorm will cause the leyline to flare up, sending a great surge of energy through the arcway.

In order for the surge to reach Shal'Aran, we must seal off any outlets along the way. If we miss even one, the mission fails - and hundreds of people will be vaporized by the energy blow off.

Thalyssra had better be sure about this tree.

I battled to find Midnight Court: Stay with the middle canal until you find a pagoda on the right with stairs on the side of it (57.7, 60.9). Go up the stairs, turn right and do an immediate U-turn onto the bridge that crosses the canal (58.3, 59.3). Go around the structure in front of you and the outlet is there (59.8, 59.3). If you battle with the mobs, consider corpse running - get as close to the outlet before dying, run from the graveyard to your corpse, watch out for mobs, resurrect and immediately close the outlet before being killed again. Enjoy!

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Ephemeral Manastorm ProjectorSuramar · Level 45

    Oculeth's theory is sound. Reckless, but sound. A small warp-field could trap and excite ambient mana in the conduit, thus creating a manastorm similar to when the arcan'dor fell out of balance. I can build a device to generate the warp-field, but I need materials.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Bring Home the BeaconSuramar · Level 45

    The conduit we need is in the Arcway, and security in the Arcway has doubled since your last visit. Our only reasonable option is to teleport your strike team directly in. This is a long-range teleport to a non-anchored destination. In other words, it will be hard.

The storyline at a glance

A Change of Seasons has 8 steps, from A Change of Seasons to Arluin's Request.
