Quest Log

Narrowing Down

Narrowing Down is a quest for level 45. It is step 2 of 3 in the Legion Archaeology storyline. The quest's turn-in marker is in Suramar at 38.2, 90.1. It rewards 6,150 experience and money.

Description

I was right about the nightborne here having objects of great power. I found an ancient text referring to such an object called the Orb of Sciallax.

From what I recall in studying the War of the Ancients, Sciallax was a demon lord who came to Suramar and offered the elves at the time a powerful artifact in return for their servitude to the Legion.

I haven't discovered the exact location yet as to the whereabouts, but perhaps some digging can yield us an answer.

Seems to be about the same droprate as the last quest, by which I mean prepare to have your will to live eaten away for 1-2 hours.

I honestly think they expect people to do these quests a little bit at a time, hence the two weeks thing, but that's not how anyone even semi serious about the game does things. No one wants one more quest cluttering their log and no one wants to make multiple trips to complete a quest.(that's why they force it on us with time gating in the first place) So what we end up with is a really unnecessarily grindy quest that feels like it belongs back in the 2000's.
