If you are willing to rid the world of Salhadaar, I will give you the disruptor.

Warning to warriors: Salhadaar's Stasis ability clears all buffs and auras, including your stance. You are put into "no stance", and your toolbar switches to the "no stance" toolbar. You probably have never seen this toolbar, so it's probably going to be blank. So you're tanking along, when suddenly your ENTIRE TOOLBAR VANISHES. Fun, eh? Just hit one of your stance buttons and all will be well.

After killing all the adds around the pillars..start the event by cutting off his energy shield supplies using the quest item.

Whoever does the last gets the initial aggro.

Kite him down into the canyon just to the southeast of the platue he starts on. Ensure you keep your backs towards the inside of the continent cause his knockback ( which is un-interruptable) could potentially knock you off the island. When he gets to 50-60% he spawns several adds. Allow the main tank to maintain the aggro on the boss and kill of the adds. Adds down..kill the boss. Besides the knockback he also does stasis on a <random target?> . Only lasts a few seconds.

  • Delivering the MessageNetherstorm · Level 25-30

    I'm sending one of my demolitionists out to place the disruption device. Just make sure no harm comes to him as he's placing the disruptor. Keep him protected! He will not fight back if enemies attack him, as he is only a holographic image, but the image can be destroyed!

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Recipe for DestructionNetherstorm · Level 25-30

    Atop Manaforge Ultris lies the tear in the nether that Void Lord Dimensius came through. That tear provides Dimensius with a link to the Void, rendering him immune to physical harm.
