They are in crates scattered around the same level of Voltarus that the quest giver is on

You will get a warning if your disguise is about to fail, in which you have 8 or so seconds to get to a safe spot (usually around a corner or something) to redo the disguise

Opening a box does not instantly break the disguise, and mine only failed once for the duration of the quest.

Description

Blight crystals?! What could this scumbag Drakuru be up to? Clearly, he's working on something significant. Continue to do his bidding and perhaps once he's more familiar with you he'll reveal his plans. In the meantime, we need to have a look at these crystals. While you're in Voltarus, try to get some samples of the harvested crystals when no one's looking. Be alert! Handling those crystals can trigger your disguise to fail.

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.

  • So Far, So BadZul'Drak · Level 20-30

    Everything you've reported is consistent with what we know. Learning of Drakuru and earning his trust will lay the groundwork for your future missions. Return to him and do as he says. Do whatever you must to appear sincere, <name>. A great deal is riding upon your performance.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • SabotageZul'Drak · Level 20-30

    While we're working to discover the purpose of these crystals, we need you back in Voltarus doing Drakuru's bidding. Every task you perform successfully gets you closer to him, and brings us that much nearer to knowing his mind. While you're there, I have another mission for you.
