been trying to figure this out.

I completed "Six Hundred Feet Under", along with the entire "Zaralek Caverns" campaign in dragonflight, and STILL have not unlocked world quests for Loamm Niffen.

Sent in a ticket, but i'm not sure if there is anything they can do. Has anyone had the same issue?

Description

That was just a taste of the niffen lifestyle. There's still far more to Loamm and even more from Zaralek Cavern. Continue exploring while you pursue the fiery monster, and let its scents continue to amaze you! For now, Ebyssian asked that I send you his way. Seems your companions are planning what to do next.

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.

  • Orientation: Loamm NiffenZaralek Cavern · Level 36-80

    I'm impressed. Elder Honeypelt speaks highly of you--and that's rare! Your friends Ebyssian and Emberthal admittedly made similar impressions with us after we caught their scent. They told me of your hunt for the fiery monster that's invaded Zaralek from the uplands.

After this quest

Taken from a quest that requires this one.

  • Slime Time LiveZaralek Cavern · Level 36-80

    <name>, if I could grab your ear again, my dear? Since making it back to Loamm, I've noticed that some of our incense pots have gone missing. Incense is what we use to mark our trade routes, and find our way back to Loamm. It's very important that we replace the missing incense as soon as possible.

  • Expedition EffervestaZaralek Cavern · Level 36-80

    My daughter's gone missing--we have to find her! As High Redolence, I may be the next target. <name>, will you come with me? I can still smell her, faintly. She has to still be in Loamm somewhere. We have to hurry!
