Quest Log

Tapping the Leylines

Tapping the Leylines is a quest for level 45 in Suramar. It is step 1 of 3 in the Feeding Shal'Aran storyline, the opening step. The quest's turn-in marker is in Suramar at 43.4, 38.7. It rewards 1 reputation reward, 6,150 experience and money.

Description

The arcways were built to tap into the magical leylines beneath Suramar. As we learned to subsist on the Nightwell, the old facilities fell out of use.

This chamber is clearly receiving power from elsewhere.

There is only a trickle now, but if you can direct more leyline energy here it will help to sustain us.

The closest source is to the north, near Anora Hollow.

    This station has fallen into disrepair. The circuit is broken, and to mend it we must recharge the seals in the central chamber. Both a high potency current and low potency current are needed for each seal. Direct the currents to point at the same seal, then engage the seal. Me? I shall supervise.
