I completed this quest some time ago. At the time I did not have cooking ( I believe I was leveling).

How is one supposed to get the quest reward?

Surely I am not the only one who hadnt picked up and gotten cooking leveled before finishing zones?

Cannot submit a ticket ( we don't help with that).

Have posted on the forums as "support" advises, but posting here in case someone recognises/had the same issue.

Thank you !

Description

I would ask one last thing of you. I've heard quite a few of the fungarians mention their leader, Gomphusta. It seems he's behind the uptick in their violence and the reason they're stealing the seeds. While you're in the cave, find him and take him out. Without Gomphusta pulling the strings, the other fungarians will be thrown into chaos and won't be able to organize ambushes as well.

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.

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Gathering GlowshroomsHarandar · Level 83-88

    Ru'gar used to tell me about how he'd sneak into the nearby cave to harvest glowshrooms. They seemed to be integral to the development of the tla'tak seeds he was cultivating. Will you collect some of the mushrooms within?
