Seems to be glitched. I was able to accept the quest, and got to the giant pillar where u run on the runes and bounce. Well, I fell off and couldn't figure out how to restart the event. I deleted the quest from my log in an attempt to restart the quest. Now the npc isn't giving the quest out anymore. I am currently at the base camp where the quest was recieved. If someone could help that would be appreciated. because currently he doesn't have any quests.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Trouble Under FootAzshara · Level 5-30

    Look at you. Doing errands. Quite responsible of you. You're moving up up up, you are... up up! There be demons ahead! Demons of many unpleasant kinds. Demons that would quite like your innards! Legash demons of a southeasternly heading! But do not worry.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Watch Your StepAzshara · Level 5-30

    This is somewhat simple and somewhat not simple. All the way up there are Energy Conduits. Rather like this one right here one might say! Indeed, I do say. Now for you. You must use my jump pads to ascend the pinnacle, and you must touch all of the conduits you see along the way.
