RewardsRuined Conservatory Emblem, 40g 44s, 6,150 XP

Description

It seems you are not so easily deterred. Very well. Your deeds qualify you to seek the Sigil. To be clear, I am only permitting you to move on. This does not guarantee your success. The greatest of your challenges lies before you. You must go to the Praetorium and face Archimonde himself. Only by defeating the master of the Conservatory will you be worthy of the Sigil. Few have overcome this obstacle. I hope he does not make too much of a mess of you.

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.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Gatekeeper's Challenge: MasteryEredath · Level 45

    Archimonde was an individual consumed by the pursuit of power. Only those who could match his lust would fare well under his tutelage. You will fight what remains of Archimonde's greatest pupils. These three once held such power in their own disciplines that the Conservatory remembers them now.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • The Sigil of AwakeningEredath · Level 45

    This relic is too powerful to keep it out in the open. We must return to the Vindicaar at once. The Prophet will know what to do. I did want to thank you, <name>. Without you this would not be possible. Quoram would have ensured I never got near the Sigil.
