Pillars of Oblivion

Pillars of Oblivion is a quest for level 50 in Vale of Eternal Blossoms, added in Battle for Azeroth. It rewards 6,800 experience and money.

Description

In ages past, the black obelisks of the Old Gods would herald the coming of their forces. The dark conjurers among the k'thir and n'raqi would utilize these monuments to establish footholds in our world and usher in more of the Old Gods' minions.

Today, we see these very same obelisks littering the battlefields. So long as they stand, N'Zoth's forces will be without end.

Make sure they do not.

This is a very, very annoying quest. The pillars despawn after one person clicks them, they don't respawn instantly, and they're hard to tell from the non-quest ones at a distance. It's not impossible to do, but given how many people are doing this the day after patch day, the zone does a very good impression of being bugged so they aren't spawning at all. Be prepared for your own side to ninja loot you right, left and center, there's no loyalty here.
