Objectives Edit

Obtain 5 Crystal Vials, 5 Arcane Powder, and 5 Blood Nettle.

•  [Crystal Vial] (5)
•  [Arcane Powder] (5)
•  [Blood Nettle] (5)

DescriptionEdit

So someone else hired you to retrieve this crate? I don't like the sound of that.

That crate's contents belong in the care of the Reliquary. The items it holds are very powerful and very dangerous.

We have to find the meeting that Dran set up between the thief and the collector, but first, we'll need to protect ourselves from the effects of handling that crate.

Buy some arcane powder from a reagent merchant, get vials from an alchemy merchant, and pick some blood nettle in the Valley of Wisdom^{[42, 39]}

.

ProgressEdit

Did you get all the ingredients?

CompletionEdit

Let's see what I can remember from the alchemy lessons of my youth. If it explodes, I've done something wrong.

This concoction should protect us from the worst effects of carrying or handling the crate.

Rewards Edit

You will receive:

• 250 reputation with Orgrimmar

NotesEdit

• For the Arcane Power, go right next door to the Salvage (to the right) and talk to Magenius.
• For the Vials, go one building further over, to Yelmak's Alchemy and Potions^{[55.6, 46.6]}
  

  
  , and speak with Kor'geld.
• Those with  [Herbalism] can track the Blood Nettle on their minimaps.
