StorylineZul'Drak, step 38 of 79
Rewards10g 50s, 4,100 XP

Description

Why do I always get the tough tasks to tackle? The Scourge at Kolramas have plague sprayers that are getting dangerously close. You don't want to know what's going to happen if they start heading this way! I've got an idea for how we might bring them down, but first we're going to need something... something from their own creatures. The Hath'ar skimmers can spin a very strong web that we can put to good use. Bring back some of their spinnerets.

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.

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Death to the NecromagiZul'Drak · Level 20-30

    When the trolls brought down Kolramas, it crashed next to us to the southeast. Unfortunately the crash did not destroy all of the Scourge within. Now they're raising our men from the dead and using them against us! This will not be allowed to continue.

After this quest

  • Malas the CorrupterZul'Drak · Level 20-30

    <name>, head back down there! You'll find the leader of Kolramas, Malas the Corrupter, gloating from atop the crashed necropolis. Kill him and bring me his head!
