Quest Log

Taking Inspiration

Taking Inspiration is a quest for level 10-45. It is step 14 of 33 in the Legion Tailoring storyline. The quest's turn-in marker is in Dalaran at 35.5, 34.9. It rewards 6,150 experience.

Description

I wish I had more patterns to share, but my notebook was lost along with my shop. We'll need to come up with some patterns on our own.

I've been thinking about the leather breeches that the Stormheim vrykul wear. They're certainly much thicker and heavier than anything we could sew, but their embellishing runework is quite impressive.

If I had a few pairs, perhaps I could re-imagine this runework on a more... refined garment.

Rewards

You will receive:

Spell: Silkweave Pantaloons

If you're doing the 106 tailoring quests without having quested in Stormheim before:

Start and finish the starting quest for Stormheim from your Scouting Map.

Get to the flight point at Forsaken Foothold by taking the elevator just south of where you spawn. Pick up Stormforged Grapple Launcher while you're there.

Follow the road to the southeast for a bit, then ride to the flight point at Stormtorn Foothills. An Enchanting Home is on the way if you're an enchanter.

Jump down to kill the [npc=110981]s. They're pretty spread out and the drop rate isn't great, some form of water walking helps to speed things up.

Get to 57,47 (south-eastern part of the harbor subzone, there's a tower that also shows up on the map).

Look for Grapple Points (either on the mountain or in the tower) to get to the roof of the tower and up the cliff.

Get the flight point and kill [npc=93066] or other Vrykul at the marked area. Done.

Alternatively, you can follow the road from Forsaken Foothold to Cullen's Post, take the bridge between Cullen's Post and Valdisdall and do the quests the other way around.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

Where's Lyndras Again?Level 10-45
Oh dear. He had just promised you that he wouldn't wander off, and then he did it again! I'm starting to think that this Lyndras character might be a bit too impetuous for my tastes. Please, go find him, before he gets into any more trouble.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

The Right ColorLevel 10-45
Your assistance, <name>, if you have a moment. I've been attempting to reproduce a pattern for footwear that I spotted a while back, but I'm having trouble getting the right color for my dye. Our black dye is too dark, our blue dye is too bright, and mixing the two doesn't look right.
