Thought I'd put it here that the Felspore Bog Lords are in a section that isn't specified on the map as being 'quest objective territory' - around 34.6 77.1 on the map - there's a patch of mushrooms there, which stand out.

If you are a [class=9] the first thing you should do is Subjugate Demon on a [npc=41470]. They cast [spell=38742] which reduces resistances by 200 and increases all damage by 60%... basically you dot it up and your new pet casts this and they pretty much insta-die.

Too bad you're mostly through the zone before you read this, because I would suggest riding over there early in Blasted Lands to enslave this badboy.

Description

The Reliquary is focused on the acquisition and preservation of magical artifacts. Our particular excursion is focused on the demonic artifacts that are hidden in what used to be the Tainted Scar. A worgen druid has taken residence in the scar and is coaxing a forest to grow. He seems to be failing, however, as the area is still infested with demons. Anyhow, his forest stands in the way of our excursion, as do these demons. Slay the tainted ones, then return to me so we might deal with the druid.

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.

  • The Downfall of Marl WormthornBlasted Lands · Level 15-30

    When word gets out about what we've done... there's no saying what the citizens of Surwich will do. They cling so closely to Wormthorn's dream... ...but still, it must be done. Take the demoniac vessel and use it on Marl Wormthorn to pull him from his trance. Return to me when he is no more.

After this quest

  • How Best to ProceedBlasted Lands · Level 15-30

    Your demon-slaying down there bought our scouts enough time to get a good look at that druid. My intelligence tells me that his name is Marl Wormthorn... a rogue Gilnean druid of substantial power.
