What to do

StorylineSouthern Barrens, step 36 of 89
Rewards10g 50s, 4,100 XP

Description

Based on what you've brought me, I think we may have a solution. I've imbued the lashvine seeds with healing energies. Simple contact with these should imbue the creatures here with enough energy to force out the corrupted influence. Go and attempt to heal the mutated raptors and plainstriders by sprinkling the seeds on them, and report the results back to me.

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.

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Lashvine SeedsSouthern Barrens · Level 10-30

    There's got to be a way to cure these poor creatures without having to take their lives. I have an idea, but I'll need your help, <class>. The lashvine plants that roam here hold seeds full of the primal energy of this place.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • To Harvest ChaosSouthern Barrens · Level 10-30

    If I have truly sown chaos, it is time for reaping. The lumbering outgrowths of plant life shamble through the imbued stream here, <name>. They are a direct manifestation of the unstable forces mutating this area.
