Primalist Directive

Primalist Directive is a quest for level 10-80 in Emerald Dream. It is step 4 of 9 in the Ice and Fire storyline. The quest's turn-in marker is in Emerald Dream at 39.6, 22.9. It rewards 9,500 experience and money.

Description

Terro was another one of Vyranoth's claws. He never wanted to attack the Dream, and some of the Primalists who served him may feel the same. See if you can convince them to join our side.

I can put a mark of Vyranoth on you so Terro's troops will not attack you... right away.

No, you're not doing it wrong. This quest REALLY is that annoying, and will take WAY more than five tries to persuade the primalists.

Edit: abhorsen1988 makes an excellent point: Talk to them while mounted on your regular flying mount, fly up if they turn aggo.

Hop on your static flying mount, you can talk to them while flying in the air. If they aggro, just fly up out of range and they'll reset back to friendly and you can talk to them again. Just rinse and repeat and you'll have all 5 done in a minute.

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Best Laid PlansEmerald Dream · Level 10-80

    Fyrakk may be brash, but he is not a fool. If we are to save the Dream, we must undermine his plans as quickly as possible. At their core, the Primalists are unorganized. Infiltrate their camp and search for any clues or information.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Finding TerroEmerald Dream · Level 10-80

    I had no idea my old guard would be willing to return to my side. I am... I am happy to see them. When I chose to go to Alexstrasza, I told no one. I simply left. But we must learn more about Fyrakk's plan before pursuing personal matters. Let us see what else Buri can tell us.
