The "Sha'tari Skyguard" are an air wing of the [[Sha'tar]] of [[Shattrath City]], defending the capital from attackers in the hills as well as battling against the arakkoa of Terokk in the peaks of Skettis. The Skyguard has two outposts, one in the northern reaches of the Skethyl Mountains and one near [[Ogri'la]]. Players start out at neutral standing with the Skyguard.

==Rewards==
  
−
Exalted reputation yields the availability of [[Nether ray (mount)|nether ray mounts]]. These are epic [[mount]]s, so players will need [[Artisan]] [[riding|riding skill]] in order to accept/complete them. Note: Unlike the daily [[Netherwing]] quests to obtain a [[Netherwing Drake (mount)|nether drake mount]], you only need [[Expert]] riding skill to do the Sha'tari Skyguard quests, however, having an Epic Flying mount will make some of the daily quests much easier.
  
−  
−
Faction NPCs will give compliments when {{reputation|revered}} players are nearby. Take note that since patch 2.3 players get a 10% faction discount for being {{reputation|honored}} with the Skyguard, a 15% discount at {{reputation|revered}}, and a 20% discount at {{reputation|exalted}}. This means that an {{reputation|exalted}} player will only have to pay {{cost|160}} for the mount and not {{cost|200}}.

===Detailed===
  
−
Players are introduced to the Sha'tari Skyguard by speaking with [[Yuula|Yuula {{Title|Recruitment Officer}}]], found next to {{npc||Nutral|Flight Master}} in [[Shattrath City]]. Yuula gives a quest that has the player kill any 20 Gordunni Ogres in the [[Barrier Hills]] above Shattrath City. Once complete, she asks the player to deliver a package to [[Sky Sergeant Doryn]] at [[Blackwind Landing]], north of [[Skettis]], to open up the once-daily {{Quest|Fires Over Skettis}} bombing run quest.
  
−  
−
Also at Blackwind Landing, [[Skyguard Handler Deesak]] has players kill 10 Warp Stalkers within Skettis so a Nether Ray in your possession can be fed. He also indicates the availability of a direct flightpath between Blackwind Landing and the Skyguard base in [[Blade's Edge Mountains]]. The flight path becomes available at {{reputation|honored}}. It is a flight on a random colored nether ray to just north of [[Ogri'la]].
  
−  
−
There is also a soloable daily escort quest offered by a [[Skyguard Prisoner]] found in one of three cages atop the trees in Skettis. Two of them are located up north on the east and west sides of the lake. The third is southeast of the lake in [[Lower Veil Shil'ak]], near a large tree that is marked on the map. The platform the cage spawns at is a covered platform connected by one hanging bridge to another tree with an open, uncovered platform. A [[Skyguard Prisoner]] respawns at any of the three locations right when the prisoner from a previous escort completes and/or despawns. The reward for it is {{Cost|9|10|}}.
  
−  
−
===Terokk chain===
  
−
{{main|Terokk's Downfall quest chain}}
  
−
[[Severin|Severin {{Title|Skyguard Medic}}]] initiates the main questline for the Sha'tari Skyguard which has the player collect 6 {{item|Shadow Dust}} to create an {{item|Elixir of Shadows}} for [[Sky Commander Adaris]]. After the initial quest, players may continue to turn in a 6 Shadow Dust for another Elixir of Shadows and 150 reputation with the Skyguard. The elixir gives a 20 minute buff (which lasts through death) that enables the player to see the shadow arakkoa of Skettis, which is necessary for several quests.
  
−  
−
Adaris has players kill three Talonpriests: [[Talonpriest Ishaal|Ishaal]], [[Talonpriest Skizzik|Skizzik]], and [[Talonpriest Zellek|Zellek]]. Talonpriest Ishaal drops the quest item {{item|Ishaal's Almanac}}, lootable by everyone in the party, that initiates the next part of the chain. Like the Time-Lost arakkoa, the Talonpriests require the player to have the Elixir of Shadows buff to be able to see them.
  
−  
−
The almanac dropped by Talonpriest Ishaal is turned in to Adaris. He sends players to the [[Lower City]] arakkoa and then back to Adaris. At this point, [[Hazzik]], the captive Arakkoa next to Adaris, whispers the player for their attention. He has players collect his package from his former home in [[Upper Veil Ala'rak]] to acquire a {{item|Shabby Arakkoa Disguise}} in order to buy a book from [[Sahaak|Sahaak {{Title|Keeper of Scrolls}}]] in [[Terokk's Rest]].
  
−  
−
Once Hazzik has the book, he starts the group quest {{Quest|Adversarial Blood}}. The quest requires at least 40 {{item|Time-Lost Scroll}}s, which drop from the Time-Lost Arakkoa. For every 10 scrolls, the player can summon and kill one of the 4 required quest mobs.
  
−
:''This quest originally required the player to collect a dropped quest item off each boss. As each boss only dropped one item per kill for the group, the repeatable group quest required significant grinding so all players could gather enough scrolls and complete the quest. However, since each player received rep for killing the arroka, turning in Shadow Dust for Elixirs, killing time-lost arroka, and killing the bosses, the significant investment in time was rewarded with a considerable amount of rep.''
  
−  
−
On completion of Adversarial Blood, Hazzik gives the player a [[Time-Lost Offering]], used to summon [[Terokk]] at Terokk's Rest, the island in the middle of Blackwind Lake. Adaris will also give the quest {{Quest|Terokk's Downfall}}, which has the player kill Terokk. It is recommended to have 5 people (or more outside the party to help) as acquiring the Time-Lost Offering is a significant investment and it is consumed by the summoning. Terokk hits moderately hard, cleaves, and does an AOE Shadowbolt. At approximately 25%, he will become immune to all damage. The Skyguard will begin to drop blue smoke flares, followed by firebombs, onto the island. Terokk must be led to the flames to remove his shield and make him damageable. However, he will also enrage and hit substantially harder. When Terokk is dead, the player may return to Adaris and complete the quest.
  
−  
−
Adversarial Blood can be repeated by turning in the required quest items to Hazzik for another [[Time-Lost Offering]]. Even if one player uses their Time-Lost Offering and fails, another party member can use theirs and everyone can get credit for the kill. As of the current patch (3.3), Hazzik rewards two [[Time-Lost Offering]] on the initial turn-in.
  
−  
−
===Bash'ir Landing Raid===
  
−
{{main|Bash'ir Landing Raid}}
  
−
Once every two hours, a group of Skyguard will launch an attack from the Skyguard base at Ogri'la to Bash'ir Landing. Once the attack is underway, several Skyguard NPCs will engage the mobs at Bash'ir landing, and a series of NPC vendors will appear. The items provided by the vendors increase in quality as the attack is maintained, until eventually the entire area is wiped out by a large number of elite attackers.
  
−  
−
==How long will it take?==
  
−
Doing nothing but the repeatable daily quests, it will take you 37 days to max out your Skyguard reputation from {{reputation|Friendly}}. To speed things up, it's a good idea to do the other quests when possible. It is possible to get 27,000 Skyguard reputation in about 13 hours. Farm all of the mobs in Skettis, turn in the repeatable shadow elixir quest and once under the effects of the elixir, farm the time-lost mobs for time-lost scrolls, used to summon some mini-bosses around the area. Once these bosses are killed, you can turn in their claws/beaks for 350 rep, and you will be given a time-lost offering, this is used to summon Terokk, who when killed gives you 500 rep. Complete this process over and over again and you will have roughly 2k+ rep/hr.

Just as several quotes are references to ''[[w:Top Gun|Top Gun]]'', at the [[Skyguard Outpost]] landing pad the Skyguard Navigator above the pad keeps drinking from a mug. She will occasionally walk over to the ledge overlooking the pad. As she stands there, a trio of Skyguard Scouts will fly right above her head, startling her:
  
−
: {{text|emote|Skyguard Navigator spills her beverage.}}
  
−
: {{text|yell|Skyguard Navigator|SKYGUARD SCOUT!!}}
  
−
: {{text|emote|Skyguard Navigator cleans up the mess while muttering curses about the Skyguard hotshot pilots.}}
