Practical Magic

Practical Magic is a quest for level 90. It is step 2 of 6 in the Astalor's Temptations storyline. It rewards 6,850 experience and money.

Description

While you've been out pursuing targets, I've been developing various applications for anguish.

The power these raw emotions contain is unfathomable. For now, our applications might seem quaint, but given enough time, I'm certain my discoveries will further Silvermoon's aims.

Let me show you. Take the crystalline vessel and meet me below.

I was so LOST finding this guy. Thanks to Bluewow on his video, I was able to see it. BUT, for those like me who only first looked at comments. In his main room where you accept the Prey , there is one open doorway and one blocked doorway by curtain. The doorway blocked by curtain is what you need to go through.

To find him, start in Murder Row. The entrance to the "Prey" building has two large red 'prey' stones by the door, it's facing the Meeting Stone for the Murder Row dungeon.
/way 55.0, 63.4

Inside when facing the Hunt Table, go left through the red-curtain door and down the ramp.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • One Hero's PreyLevel 90

    Again, we sin'dorei find our city under assault. And again, it is up to the finer minds among us to come to Silvermoon's aid. Mortal anguish, it seems, is a powerful reflection of the soul. When contained and manipulated, anguish acts as a form of magic that we can wield to protect this great city.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Dark MendingLevel 90

    So far, anguish has been invaluable in bolstering our forces. Our weaponry and golems are all the more hardy and potent thanks to this newfound power. I've also been developing ways to shape anguish into robust enchantments that can strengthen us elves. Meet me downstairs.

The storyline at a glance

Astalor's Temptations has 6 steps, from One Hero's Prey to The Sheep or the Wolf.
