If you dont want to farm anymore (like myself) innkeeper Caretaker Caryn (left of the equipment crafting area) sells Supplies for the Path for 5 Medallions of Service which contains a lot of every material you need for the crafting.

The first one I opened contained:
Elysian Feathersх19
Champion's Peltх15
Nightforged Steelх19
Calloused Boneх19

To complete the quest you need to craft [item=180579] via Ascension Crafting menu.
[item=180579] recipe required two different materials: 4x [item=180477] and 2x [item=180478].
[item=180477] drop by any flying creatures and [item=180478] drop by beasts (it's a rare drop).
Best choice to farm from are [npc=157761]s, there are few can be found around 43.0 56.6 coordinates.

Description

I can aid you in crafting many pieces of equipment for your soulbinds. Though they may only equip one at a time, each piece grants a new ability that they may not have without it. This time you must source your own materials from around the Shadowlands. When you have collected them, return to me and we can create the footpads!

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.
