This is a pretty terrible quest and I wish I could skip it. But you don't get Poco back as an assistant until you do it and I need him atm. Not friendly for an alt that is not that well equipped. I know having secured flying you can jump around a bit. But still have to fight elites to get the sigils, and in his trance, Pocopoc doesn't help you anymore either. Costing me a fortune in equipment repair after res sickness. No I could NOT find my body ever, I think I was inside the rocks as I was on the spot it said it was, but there was no offer to resurrect.
Truly HORRIBLE questline

Who thought this would make a fun quest?

You need 180 energy to finish the quest, but your bar only holds 100... If you die, you have to walk 200 yards back. Peaceful mobs randomly turn into aggressive mobs then spawn more mobs right on top of you.

This quest further proves Blizzard doesn't think people play video games for fun.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Pop Goes the Devourer!Zereth Mortis · Level 60

    Once... they had purpose. Made for balance. But now... shifted, altered. Disharmonious. They rend the pattern. It cannot continue. Elimination is the only recourse.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Between a Rock & a RockZereth Mortis · Level 60

    <Piles of rock are scattered around the area. The devourers have done enough damage to obscure the cypher you seek. Perhaps one of the nearby servitors could be made to clear the rubble.>
