Quest Log

Ghost Busting (Alliance)

Ghost Busting is an Alliance-only quest for level 10-60. The quest's turn-in marker is in Tiragarde Sound at 74.4, 21.2.

Description

I hate to ask this of you, but are you available for some more grunt work? I'd do it myself, but this seems beyond my capabilities.

Remember how I told you we use star moss to allow those no longer living to join us for a special day?

Yeah, well, sometimes once they show up, they don't want to leave. There is a spirit on the other side that is lashing out, harming those it should be protecting.

Take this smoldering star moss and cleanse the area until you find the offender and help them move on.

Rewards

You will receive:

Spell: Herbalism Technique: Star Moss (Rank 3)Teaches you how to gather star moss more effectively.

Ghost Busting quest can be started in Boralus Harbor from [npc=136096] herbalism trainer.
I was able to take it after ~55-75 level of profession skill.

Go to windrider and turn left (take the stairs down)

Move strait till you see the harbour and turn right

You need to enter first house after the gates.
Entrance is from water side of the house
You can see wooden stairs. Take them and turn right.
Use [item=159833] inside the house.
