There is a small mound of dirt on the ground you have to use, and then defend the NPC from a few mobs as he gets summoned, overall very simple. The mound of dirt is not too easy to spot (at least it took me some time <.<) so look carefully :)

I'd like to point out to anyone still having problems with this quest; there are TWO peat piles, if you pick both quests up together. They are a sort distance away from each other but if you look you will find them.

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.

  • The TorchesTownlong Steppes · Level 25-35

    Until recently, the yaungol shaman would come here to work alongside us. Now, they bend my people to their will. If we refuse, they kill us. Even if we oblige... they kill us. The yaungol mist-shaman's magic flows through his torch. Take his torch away, and he has nothing.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • ArconissTownlong Steppes · Level 25-35

    If I am to fight Jahesh, leader of the yaungol mist-shaman, I must have Arconiss by my side. Arconiss' ferocity is second to none. He rests beneath the mists of the Upper Sumprushes. Find his resting place, and then use these torches to awaken him.
