TheWoWDBThese drop from the acolytes, which are somewhat rare compared to the other mobs.
One way to find them is to fly around and look for the obelisks or the events (crossed swords with skull on it on your map). Those usually have 1-2 acolytes hanging out.
There are also a few in the chamber underground at Obelisk of the Stars. It's the place you went to destroy idols. /way 64.39, 34.16

I have killed WAY more than 10 mobs and not gotten this item yet. This is infuriating. Tons of other people are farming the same mobs on the same quest and clearly it's not dropping for very many people.

Description
If anyone would know more about the "corruption" the tablet spoke of, it would be the Suntouched that were put in charge of rooting it out. Of course, I doubt they'll be willing to turn over any information voluntarily. Luckily for me, you're a bit of a specialist at brute force investigation, aren't you?
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.
- A Crack in the Armor
The artifacts you helped excavate show the Amathet as a tribe who prided themselves on protecting the works of the titans. This confirms our assumptions, and indicates that something drastic must have happened to them to cause them to damage the very works they swore to protect.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Shared Goals
The decree you found made mention of a plan to defeat the Old Gods. I know that the Amathet aren't likely to work with us toward that goal, but if they have a plan tae take out N'Zoth, it's worthwhile for us tae look at it. The decree mentions the Engine of Ascension.
The storyline at a glance
Mystery of the Amathet has 9 steps, from Eyes on the Amathet to A World Worth Saving.
