Elixir of Agony is the first quest in a Horde quest chain in Hillsbrad Foothills. In this quest, players must gather toxic mushrooms for Apothecary Lydon to use in his research for creating a new plague.
The Mudsnout Blossoms are large mushrooms growing in Nethander Stead. They are protected by Mudsnoutgnolls, but it is possible to avoid many mobs with careful harvesting.
Description
Another day, another elixir to be made. If it were up to me, I'd just let the pathetic humans and Scourge fight it out. They seem bent on killing each other as is.
Alas, our Dark Lady wants to help speed up the process a tad so why not pass these morbid days by spreading a little death and disease across the land?
Here's the plan, <name>: you go out to Nethander Stead, south of Tarren Mill and east of the river and Southshore. Collect for me 6 Mudsnout Blossoms from the field for my next elixir.
