I don't get it. You're supposed to talk to Yotnar and he's supposed to give you some kind of blessing. He tells you to "Hold aloft your weapon and receive a gift from the Titans".

I was expecting some kind of buff, but nothing.

The Blessing of the Watchers gives different rewards to different classes/specs' LOOT SPECIALIZATION, so if you want different choices of rewards, change your loot specialization (by right clicking your character's unit frame) before handing it in.

The exact details of the items varies by spec, so on my feral druid, you get a choice of [item=132780] that offers more energy regen from Tiger's Fury for a faster play style, or [item=132791] that offered 7% increased damage from Rake. Frost mages, among others, can choose between the same two items, but the details of how it changes their abilities would be different, since they don't have Tiger's Fury or Rake.

I had a bug on one character that didn't give me either of the options it showed for some reason, it just gave me the [item=141398] which you get in addition to the choice. It may have had to do with an auto quest hand-in addon.

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.
