"gated behind the 7th Legion reputation" which is 3000 points of progress into Honored. Happy grinding to get the Golden Opportunity quest started.

Blood in the Water needs 7500 points into Honored to start.

Description

I must confess my disappointment that we were not able to bring an end to Gallywix's greedy reign today. But I blame no one but myself, and will report the same to the High Commander. Your performance was exemplary, just as I expected. I hope the Alliance will not lose faith in the void elves because of this. We have much to offer. When you're ready, I will open a final Void portal to take us back to Boralus.

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.

  • We Have Him CorneredLevel 50

    Did you hear Gallywix barking orders to his servants and thugs? Still concerned with frivolities as we edge ever closer. He feels safe in his petulant palace of profits. He should not. Even here, we will strike down Trade Prince Gallywix. For the Alliance!

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Operation: CutpurseLevel 50

    It is time to reconvene for our next mission, though Shandris and I disagree on what exactly that should entail. Meet us on the Wind's Redemption.
