#The blighted creatures found near each node will occasionally drop a [[Blighted Mana Crystal]].  The crystals found on all six creatures are identical and can be handed into the small pyramid in the center of the node.  The nodes originally required 1,000 crystals each. On Monday, August 4th, Turbine set all unfinished pyramids to 750 crystals -- meaning they only needed 250 crystals to complete them.
#Once a node has been filled with crystals, the small floating pyramid in the center will dissappear.  A  Minion of T'thuun unique to that node will then spawn.  When killed, the minion drops a head, for example [[Head of Obsidian Minion]], which grants a unique title (one per server per node).
#A golem will spawn adjacent to pyramid.  The golem wants 10 mana crystals for additional xp.
#Once all six nodes have been completed, all six golems are available for xp for turning in crystals, however all six comprise a single task (handing to any of them advances your turn in count and the reward is the same no matter which one you use). There are no immediately apparent effects for completing all six (the xp for turning in 10 crystals is the same after finishing all six as before).
#The following [[Ancient Powers|event]] saw all nodes on all servers completed and Node Golems in place. This retired the activation portion of the quest and any unclaimed titles will not exist on servers that did not complete all nodes.

Quest Overview

Originally this was a server wide gathering quest that requires the help of everyone to find mana crystals that aid six pyramids raised by Asheron himself. When complete, a minion of T'thuun that guards each node will be exposed. What lies beyond we do not know.

Walk Through

  1. There are six types of Blighted creatures that drop Blighted Mana Crystals. The drop rate is now 100% on all creatures.
  2. Next to each of six nodes is a Node Golem NPC, give your crystals to the golem for an xp reward.

These pyramids must be powered! Certain creatures found in the vicinity of those nodes sometimes bear tiny crystals of concentrated, tainted mana."
