Description
We have always left the Deadtalkers alone. For so long, they were just responsible for maintaining the sacred burial grounds of the yaungol tribes.
Now, though, they are practicing dark magic, defiling the corpses of their former clanmates...
I know not where the learned those dark magics, or why they no longer treat their dead with respect, but we do not have time to find out.
We need to stop them.
Rewards
You will receive:
- 19 84 50 2
- 236000 XP
- +250 reputation with Shado-Pan
Progress
Have you defeated the Deadtalkers?
Completion
By conspiring to use these dark magics, the Deadtalkers have given up their rights to protection. Your actions should deter them from their current course, I hope.
Notes
Pick up [25-35 Daily] Assault Fire Camp Gai-Cho, [25-35 Daily] The Enemy of My Enemy... Is Still My Enemy!, and [25-35 Daily] Spirit Dust before heading out. Don't forget to grab an NPC helper, either!
Circle around the Underbough to the northwest to reach Deadtalker's Plateau. Deadtalker Corpsedefilers are walking around with seven Defiled Spirits around them, with a total combined health pool of 1.3 million. Try to crowd-controll the deadtalker and AoE down the group—the ghosts merely have ~110,000 health each. Be wary of the elite Deadtalker Crushers wandering around! It takes four 
[Ancient Spirit Dust] for each set of Defiled Yaungol Remains, so keep that in mind.
Once Deadtalker's Plateau and Spirit Dust are both complete, turn them in and pick up [25-35 Daily] Uruk! from the companion. Uruk is on the northwest part of the plateau overlooking the Westersea. A yaungol, Uruk has the following abilities:
- Shadow Bolt 40 yd range — Hurls a bolt of dark magic at an enemy, inflicting Shadow damage. 3 sec cast. Hits for ~40-43,000 Shadow.
- Call of the Keening Spirits 40 yd range — 4 sec cast. (20 sec cooldown)
Kill him, then keep heading north to the Gai-Cho Battlefield and Fire Camp Gai-Cho. Skip the battlefield itself and head up to the fire camp to start killing yaungol and looting 
[Highly Explosive Yaungol Oil] Barrels. Only ten barrels can be carried at a time, so gather a bunch, go out and kill the units on the battlefield, then repeat. Don't kill all of the yaungol on the mesa before killing the combatants down below.
