Description

We cannot falter in our crusade against this corruption, <name>.

It is our duty as heroes. As herbalists.

As hero-balists.

Slaying simple satyrs will not do. We must attack their leaders. Bring this fallen herb to Shala'nir, in the northeast. Find Tur'xoran's summoning stone, and place this herb in front of it. Then... rip off his head.

Do it for the plants.

Beware, this guy is seriously bugged.

If you die to him (like I did, thinking I could solo it after the earlier comment), he will not despawn. If you try to go back and get to your corpse, he'll re-aggro on you, even in your spirit form which he stands at and spams his yelling. I tried logging out, running away, everything I could think of. Finally I took the rez sickness at the spirit healer... and he started chasing me THERE. I ran. A hunter picked him up not knowing what was going on, and I tried to come back and help her... she ran and I died. At THAT spirit healer, he checkmated me... I was dead, he was there, and there wasn't anything I could do.

I was writing a ticket for help when another hunter came along and pulled him. I rezzed, switched specs, and started healing his pets. With that, we managed to get him down. I couldn't adequately thank the hunter, as he was the other faction.

So... go into this prepared.

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.
