This ends the quest chain started with Broken Circle (which is gotten by the talent [order-advancement=1902])

You get absolutely zero indication that these Jiro set themselves outside of [npc=177958] cave area (why they setup here and just stand around who knows....)

Here you have the vendor [npc=183962] who sells a bunch of stuff including the all important [item=188793] which increases the cyphers you find by 50%

Sadly you also get zero rep for this entire chain, which also seems stupid.

A temporary solution that worked for me for those checking out this thread: I joined a group for the world boss so it phased me to a different realm, left the group so it phased me back to my realm, and talked to the Jiro IMMEDIATELY as I phased in (helps to be standing right next to the Jiro when you do this). This allowed me to choose the dialogue option to start the quest. Hope this helps :)

Description

I have spoken to other jiro. Our orb can create a dampening field. It should close the rifts and stop new ones from forming. It must be done where the Maw magic is strongest. Between the giant chains. The power released by the orb will draw devourers. You and I must defend the orb until the field is set. I will escort the others. Meet us at the rift when you are ready.

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.

  • Mawsteel, Maw ProblemsZereth Mortis · Level 60

    Zereth Mortis is sacred. Rifts should not form here. Something creates them. The metal you found has Maw magic. Devourers use it to make rifts. This is how they skirt our protections. Mawsteel shards are strewn across the area. Take these shards. Throw them off our cliffs.

Jiro to Hero has 10 steps, from Broken Circle to Jiro to Hero.
