Leystone's Potential

Leystone's Potential is a quest for level 45. It is step 27 of 42 in the Legion Blacksmithing storyline. The quest's turn-in marker is in Suramar at 30.0, 53.5. It rewards 6,150 experience.

Description

As I'm sure you've deduced, all of the leystone recipes you know can be improved.

By learning to harness leystone's true potential, you can reduce the amount of material you use and still yield an equivalent result. Here, I'll show you.

We'll start, as one does, with the humble bracer. This particular piece of armor benefits from the addition of brimstone runes. See for yourself.

Rewards

You will receive:

Experience6,150 XP

During Dragonflight pre-patch quests were bugged. You have learned required quest crafting spells, but as you opened your spell book the spells did not show up.
I found alternative trough /run scripts.
For this case, I've looked up Wowhead for specific spell IDs and with those I got the spells I needed. By running /run PickupSpell([spell_id]) I got the spell and was able to put it on my action bar.
Down is a list for all required crafts:


  • [spell=184403]/run PickupSpell(184403)

  • [spell=184404]/run PickupSpell(184404)

  • [spell=184405]/run PickupSpell(184405)

  • [spell=184407]/run PickupSpell(184407)
  • ]
  • [spell=184408]/run PickupSpell(184408)
  • ]

Perhaps this helps you as it did for me :)

I don't get this quest. She's asking me to make something with a recipe I haven't been given/found, to reward me with an old recipe I've already got and which no longer gives skill points?

Edit: Ok I see what the problem was - you have to make a pair of 'Chiseled Masterwork Armguards' to complete the quest.

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.

  • Nal'ryssa's TechniqueLevel 45

    Listen, <class>. We need smiths like you to carry on the traditions of the Illidari, should we fail in our crusade against the Legion. You are ready to learn. Bring me materials. Lots of them. When you return, we will have much to discuss.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • The Firmament StoneLevel 45

    When working with felslate and demonsteel, one must use special equipment. Specifically, an anvil hard enough to withstand the energy given off when felslate is hammered. Urael and I no longer possess such an anvil. But your friends, the Highmountain tauren, do.

The storyline at a glance

Legion Blacksmithing has 42 steps, from Strange New Ores to Advanced Quenching.

Maps its steps are placed on (steps per map): Dalaran (16), Highmountain (15), Suramar (8), Val'sharah (3).
