Rewards

Spore-Soaked Leggings,

Girdle of Bolete Explosion,

Cloak of Fungal Growth, 13g 74s, 4,800 XP

Description

The fungal behemoths that surround us have succumbed to a weakness very similar to that that affects your kind. Their skin has grown soft. They no longer belong with the stone. Kill them. We do not wish to see this infection spread.

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.

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

DoomshroomsDeepholm · Level 30-35
The rift to your world has poisoned our home. Corrupted it. Polluted it. This expanse festers and grows. It becomes difficult to even see the purity of the rock beneath this filth. If you are here to lend your aid, then go about cleansing this overgrowth.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

Familiar IntrudersDeepholm · Level 30-35
Fleshling. Some of your kind skitter among the rocks. Too cowardly to approach, too swift to be crushed. If you wish my favor, deal with them. I tire of these games.
