Objectives
Examine 6 Engraved Vrykul Shields in Skold-Ashil.
- Examine Engraved Shields (6)
Description
Our goal lies within that vault, <class>. I don't have time to explain in detail - just know that it is vital to the Forsaken that we succeed.
The shieldmaidens have proven tenacious in their defense, but I believe there may be another way in. A chosen few of their order are allowed entrance, and I need you to find out how.
In the town I have seen intricately engraved shields which I believe are passed down from these champions. The scenes they depict may be the key to passing into the vault.
Rewards
You will receive: 15 40 (at level 100)
Completion
I hope that you bring me some good news, <class>.
For both of our sake.
Gains
- 15,050 XP
