If you are wondering why Margrave Gharmal is unattackable it is because you will need to clear out the two mobs that spawn individually (kill one then the other spawns). Once you kill both then the cinematic will play defeating Margrave Gharmal and leading to the follow-up quest Take Heart.

If you are experiencing issues because the cinematic didn't display (sometimes addons auto-cancel cinematics) and can't do anything you will need to log out and back in order for the quest to register as complete and be able to turn in.

While trying to do this quest, after killing the second NPC sent for you to kill, I was unable to do anything. Couldn't move, and I was apparently pacified, though with no visible debuff causing this. I tried a /reload to fix it, which didn't help, but logging out and back in again set the quest as ready to be turned in, and I was able to move around as normal.

What to do

StorylineRighteous Retribution, step 17 of 20

Description

Draka stands ready to unleash the power of the Zerekriss upon Gharmal. We need only buy her time to focus its weapon. What we do now, we do for all of us. Bastion and Maldraxxus have both lost many to these fiends. He will not be defeated easily, but united our forces will finally bring him to justice!

Where to go

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.

  • The End is NowMaldraxxus · Level 60

    Our forces have control of the House of Constructs, thanks to your intervention. Now, all that remains is the fall of the instigator themselves--Margrave Gharmal. This battle has been long in the making, <name>. I am at your side without hesitation. Let us go to this monster.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Take HeartLevel 60

    Mograine and I spoke at length when he visited Bastion. He suggested that should we manage to kill Gharmal, his heart could be used to empower the Crest of Ascension. The Margrave bears the power to shape form in ways few beings can.
