RewardsVindicator's Stompers, Vindicator's Leather Moccasins, Vindicator's Chain Boots, 4,100 XP

Description

Velen states that if the blood elves have been opening rifts between this island and the Outland, there will be residue or anomalies left in the areas where the portals have been opened. You must search the island for locations that exhibit or display these anomalies. Be warned, {name}; some of these anomalies will be creatures from the void itself. Should you find void anomalies, slay them! Report back to me with any new information that you may find. Begin your search to the north, near the Warp Piston.

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.

  • Truth or FictionBloodmyst Isle · Level 1-30

    I thank you for the timely delivery, <name>. You are turning out to be one of the Hand's better agents. If only we knew who they reported to in Bloodmyst and more importantly, where this sun portal was... They seem to have it tightly guarded - wherever it may be.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • The Cryo-CoreBloodmyst Isle · Level 1-30

    We have others pursuing leads on the sun portals, <name>. I need you to focus on the task at hand. Boros has received new reports of another crash site. What we've since discovered is that the crash site is actually the Exodar's cryo-core.
