The Sun Gate

The Sun Gate is an Alliance-only quest for level 1-30 in Bloodmyst Isle. It is step 26 of 38 in the Bloodmyst Isle storyline. The quest's turn-in marker is in Bloodmyst Isle at 55.5, 55.4. It rewards 1 reputation reward and 4,100 experience. Completing it counts toward 1 achievement.

Description

Thanks to you and the work you did, my scouts were able to find the sun gate. The elves keep the portal location mobile so that they can move it at a moment's notice. That's why the site you investigated was empty.

The strength of such a system is also its greatest weakness. The sun gate is stabilized by portal controllers. If we can take down the controllers, the portal will be ours to destroy. The current sun gate location can be found west of here, south of the Vector Coil. Find it and destroy it!

Sometimes if you destroy all four controllers you're still unable to click the portal hovering over the lake. This happened to me, just wait until all four controllers respawn and repeat until you can select the portal.

    Don't accept this assignment if you value your life. You see that gigantic power core jutting out of the mountain side over yonder? Whoever takes on this burden will need to fight their way through that mountain, battling an army of Sunhawks while protecting me as I rig the core up for demolition.

After this quest
