If we push through, we may find shelter up ahead.

HERE'S HOW TO DO THE QUEST EASY WITH JUST ONE BUTTON:

1. Stay in the bubble at all times. Ignore all the regular mobs that are running towards the bubble attacking it, they are irrelevant to the quest (if you stay inside that is, go outside the bubble they kill you :) )

2. Look for the guys attacking the bubble from a distance with a pinkish ranged spell. They will be 4-5 of them at a time. No need to run outside and try to kill them, just target and hit them with your ranged attack or spell from inside the bubble, they will drop their attack and become regular mobs (running towards the bubble). So after you hit them once ignore them and target the next one.

3. That's all! There are two attack waves, so just stay inside, target and hit each special mob once (about 8-10 of them altogether), and the quest continues and finishes by itself.

took a few wipes to figure out, was nothing to it after :)

  • Trail of EchoesSuramar · Level 45

    The Nightborne could prove powerful allies against the Legion. We must aid this Thalyssra if we can. We should be able to find her by tracking her magical echoes, the same way I found her distress call. I can teleport you near the location where she recorded that message.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • The Nightborne PactSuramar · Level 45

    <Thalyssra winces and holds her abdomen.> Ngh... I can ignore this wound no longer. Help me patch this up. I will explain everything.
