This quest chain unlocks a very nice dagger for higher level instances if you are a caster DPS and you are trying to replace your old weapon and haven't had the chance yet.

[item=65830]

To unlock this quest chain you will need to first take the seed quest from Phaoris in the main building then complete a cluster of any of the prophet quest chains such as this one : The Prophet Hadassi after which you can go back to Phaoris and then speak with the guy outside [npc=47959]. Once you accept his quest The High Commander's Vote, you can then speak with the high commander Kamses and get this quest line.

Description

They say a chain is only as strong as its weakest link. I subscribe to that theory and expand upon it. Rather than removing that weak link, one must... strengthen it. The other links will step up their performance out of fear of they themselves becoming the weakest link. In my army's case, our weak link has a name. Salhet. You'll find him training near the bottom of those stairs. Start him off with something easy. The hyenas on the hills to the west, perhaps.

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.

  • The High Commander's VoteUldum · Level 30-35

    If we're to pass a resolution for war, the high council's vote needs to be unanimous. I'm certain High Commander Kamses will give us his vote once he hears about what happened at Orsis. Please speak to him in Ramkahen and make sure that's the case. I must make preparations in case our plan fails.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Shaping UpUldum · Level 30-35

    High Commander Kamses has a special mission for me? Wait... don't tell me. It's hyenas again, right? Very well, I shall do my best. Meet with me at the Sunwatcher's Ridge. I won't disappoint you.
