Mobs you have to kill located just north from Ryanna, through small valley.
Better pull them together and use powerfull aoe.

Description

Of course I will help you! Although to be honest, I am not certain where a new arcane shield generator can be found these days. So many of our craftspeople have been executed... I will think on it. Would you mind helping me as well? I have been observing a nearby group of Felborne for some time. Their activities have become increasingly brazen of late. I think it's time to teach them how it feels to be violently suppressed.

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 Nightborne ApprenticeLevel 45

    I would be happy to introduce you to my new apprentice if you do not mind traveling a bit. She is currently in the field keeping an eye on an enclave of Felborne resistance fighters who have sworn loyalty to the Legion.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Keymaster OrlisLevel 45

    The Felborne insurgents appear to be guarding a teleporter pad within the glade ahead. I wonder where it leads? It is probably safe to assume that we'll need to kill Keymaster Orlis in order to gain access.
