Follow Magatha to take the portal to Thousand Needles.
That zone is phased, so if you will try to leave quest are, you run "normal" TN zone.
But if you come back, you get phased area again.

Description

I know I am not well liked here, and my Grimtotem and I were not invited to join you and your shaman here. However, I come to you with a proposition. The Legion is attacking my home. I've lost possession of some things that are... dear to me, and I have nowhere else to turn to. It pains me to ask... but I request your aid. If you help, I offer my people in service against the Legion.

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.

  • A "Humble" RequestLevel 45

    <class>t, we've received a... visitor. She orders entry, but the guards will not let her pass without approval. Please head up to the overlook as soon as you are able.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Snakes and StonesLevel 45

    When the demons attacked, they captured two very powerful possessions of mine: my companion Arikara and the Doomstone. While death matters not to Arikara, the Legion surely has ulterior plans for him. And the Doomstone... such an artifact of power belongs in my hands, not theirs.

The storyline at a glance

The Elemental Lords IV has 14 steps, from A "Humble" Request to Champion: Magatha Grimtotem.
