Potential Energy Source

Potential Energy Source is a quest for level 25-30 in Netherstorm. It is step 74 of 103 in the Netherstorm storyline. The quest's turn-in marker is in Netherstorm at 57.6, 86.3. It rewards 4,100 experience and money.

Description

We are not the only ones battling the influx of the mana beings. The blood elves, too, are troubled by them, but I'm not sure why.

Whatever they're involved in over there, they don't seem to be stopping. Instead, I've seen them employ a variety of methods to kill the creatures. The most effective involves magical defenses fueled by some sort of concentrated energy.

Capture some of these energy sources and bring them to me. Don't hesitate to stymie the elves if an opportunity presents itself.

Where to go

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • The Unending InvasionNetherstorm · Level 25-30

    Kael'thas's assault on Kirin'Var began with thundering noise and a bright flash of light in the officer quarters to the northwest. The destruction there was the most severe and after the withdrawal of the blood elves, a strange thing began to happen.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Building a PerimeterNetherstorm · Level 25-30

    We are prepared to try to construct a perimeter around the village using the energy source taken from the blood elves. I can't guarantee that it will work, but we have to attempt it. Otherwise, the mana creatures will surely continue devouring the spirits of the fallen Kirin Tor.
