Description

We of the Royal Apothecaries have synthesized many nuanced plagues in recent years, in keeping with our agreement with the Desolate Council not to... overdo it. But when it comes to rooting out Scarlet assailants, there really is nothing like the classic. The original plague that exists -- mostly -- only in the diseased tissue of surviving descendants. Go, gather up samples from this marvelous wildlife and bring them to me. I can put them to greater use.

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.

To the SepulcherLevel 50-90
Faranell and Velonara already went to the Sepulcher to work on a piece of our plan. We can hold the wall for now with just a few deathguards and dark rangers, but we need someone who can hit the Scarlets where they are. Preferably without losing more of our own.
