Description

That willful elemental ended many lives that fateful day when he revolted against us. By calling to the lowly murloc to sabotage our rites he subverted our magic and turned it against us.

Show him our thirst for vengeance has not waned! Take these medallions and lay them at the Altar of Tidal Mastery at the bottom of the lake. Aquantion shall immediately answer your summons!

Beware, <race>! Without our magic controlling him, his wrath will be unrestrained. Destroy Aquantion so we may rest!

If you're a mage, you probably want to group with someone or be level 17+. At level 15 or below he resists all your frost spells, so there is no way to kite him or prevent him from beating on you. Very frustrating for solo mages.

Soloed as a lvl14 mage, dampen magic helps tons. Just stayed at max fireball range and spammed it along with Fire Blast whenever it was up, no crits and no Impact procs. Ended up at like 7% hp tho.

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

Forgotten RitualsGhostlands · Level 1-30

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

Attack on Zeb'TelaGhostlands · Level 1-30
Our resources are spread pretty thin here, <class>, so your help is going to be invaluable. The captain has tasked me with overseeing the harassment of the local Shadowpine troll camps. We have a policy of keeping them off balance until the day when we can launch a brutal offensive to wipe them out.
