RewardsIvy-Weave Bracers, Herb-Stained Gauntlets, Shimmerweed Boots, 4,100 XP

Description

I'm on a quest to make the perfect stout. I know I can do it -- brewing's in my blood. I just need to find the right recipe... The Frostmane trolls grow a plant, shimmerweed, up on Shimmer Ridge to the northwest. They use it in their strange, tribal rituals. We haven't found much use for it, but it has a unique taste... and I want to experiment with it in my brews! Obtaining the shimmerweed will be dangerous, but I'll pay well for any you can "borrow" from the baskets in the troll village.

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.
