Objectives Edit

Use Belysra's Talisman to defeat the Dark Scout.

•  Dark Scout slain

Provided item:  [Belysra's Talisman]

Description Edit

You must have many questions, <name>. And they will be answered in time.

I know why you're here and what you're looking for.

I can't lead you there with the enemy tracking you.

One of Sylvanas's scouts has been following your tracks. You can't lead the Forsaken to the place you seek. Take this talisman and walk along the road just north of here.

Let the ranger lure you to her trap and use the power of the talisman to break free and counterattack.

Progress Edit

Is it done, <name>?

Completion Edit

Well done, <name>. The scout never had a chance.

Rewards Edit

You will receive:

• 3
• 780 XP
• 250 reputation with Gilneas

You will also be able to choose one of the following:

	[Seryl's Robes]		[Hightailing Leggings]
	[Hotfoot Boots]

Notes Edit

Circle around to the north back toward Rygna's Lair. In the middle of the path is an obvious Freezing Trap at ^{[63.8, 81.3]}

. Since there's no way around not getting "trapped", walk right in to it.

On getting frozen:

Dark Scout says: Such easy prey. Sylvanas will be most pleased!

Use Seryl's Talisman to escape before the Dark Scout shoots you!

The Dark Ranger winds up an aimed shot capable of doing 900 damage, which is more than enough to one-shot players at this level. Escape!

How did you--?! It doesn't matter -- I don't need a trap to defeat you.
