you get 1000 rep with Rajani, so that's a pretty good reason to do it. And 1,500 AP.
Why would I want to do the quest line? What's in it for me?

Description
You found this on a member of the swarm? It seeps with corruption... and with power. We could be faced with a serious threat if the rest of the mantid's amber is similarly corrupted. Far to the west in the Dread Wastes lies Kor'vess, a large kypari tree that provides the swarm with most of its amber. From there, we can determine just how much of their stores have been infused with the energy of the Old Gods. I will meet you closer to the tree.

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.
- Reflections in Amber
<A viscous dark ooze drips from this large chunk of amber. Attempting to wipe it off is futile, as the ooze is seemingly created by the amber itself. As you hold it, unintelligible whispers fill the back of your mind. The Shado-Pan will surely want to examine it.>
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Crippling the Hive
The mantid here are working feverishly to harvest amber from the tree. Perhaps killing a pawful of them will slow their efforts.
The storyline at a glance
The Mantid Threat has 9 steps, from Reflections in Amber to The Mantid Threat.
Maps its steps are placed on (steps per map): Dread Wastes (5), Vale of Eternal Blossoms (3), Vale of Eternal Blossoms (1).
