This quest is so vague and confusing. Here is what you need to do to get the Bolt of Brimstone-soaked Silkweave


  • Talk to Alard Schmied in the blacksmithing shop to get Alard's Brimstone Shavings

  • Go back to the Tailoring shop, get Tanithria's green dye from the shelf

  • Click on the green dye tub under the shelf and you will be prompted to put the mats in to make the bolt of cloth.
  • Click the tub again to dye the cloth; it will finish the process and add it to your quest items (not physically in your bag)

At this point you just pick up the other items needed and use Tanithria's finishing table to make the lining and outer layer, and finally the Masterwork Silkweave Bracers.

Note: The Runic Catgut can be purchased from Lalla Brightweave there in the Tailoring shop.

Happy Crafting!

Description

Okay, done mourning! Let's look through his stuff. <Tanithria takes a moment to leaf through Lyndras' journal. Her eyes open wide.> Our friend has been keeping secrets from us. Look at this! Every single one of the recipes he's taught us can be improved. Let's start simple, with some bracers. I can supply most of the materials, but you'll have to talk to Alard Schmied in the blacksmithing shop to get this powdered brimstone.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Assault on Violet Hold: Into the HoldLevel 45

    With Lyndras being locked up in Violet Hold, you feel responsible for him and must discover the truth behind his actions. Perhaps if you were able to speak with him, you could find a way to have him released from the hold and put back into your custody.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • The Path to Suramar CityLevel 45

    I recall Lyndras mentioning a guild of tailors within Suramar City. Perhaps they could further our understanding of how to utilize this new cloth. Unfortunately from what I've heard, they've sided with the demons and anyone opposed to them is to be killed on sight.
