What to do
Speak to the Image of Archmage Xylem at the base of the Arcane Pinnacle.
The quest giver's words
This is so exciting! What's exciting you might ask? Well THIS is of course!
Time to trial... time for YOU to trial. So many challenges to overcome, so much learning to be done. You learning about trials. Me learning about you.
So now, off you go. To my Arcane Pinnacle. I will meet you there of course, because I'm quite everywhere.
Completion
Here so soon! Lovely trip I hope. Not too nauseous or anything?
There will be much running and much jumping, so a settled stomach is of great practicality.

By character level
Level Experience Share 15–23 1,000 100% 24 800 80% 25 600 60% 26 400 40% 27 200 20% 28–89 100 10% 90 none 6s more money The game pays the full figure up to five levels above the quest, then 20 % less for each level more, down to a tenth, and none at the level cap. A bonus of your own (a guild perk, a holiday) comes on top.
The listed figures and the players here disagree, so both are shown rather than one picked.
- Experience: players were paid 10% more than the 1,000 listed. An experience bonus (heirlooms, a guild perk) pays more; a character well above the quest's level earns less.

What players recorded
Everything below this line is a different kind of knowledge from everything above it. Above: what the quest is, the same on every realm. Below: what actually happened when people played it, uploaded by them, with the number of runs printed against every figure. It is an observation, not a fact about the quest.
This guide rests on 1 completed run. That is enough to show where people went and not enough to trust the timings – treat them as one player's evening.
How precise this guide is
Early guide Built from 1 run by 1 player – low confidence. Every upload of this quest sharpens it: the hotspots tighten, the order and the timings settle, and the parts below unlock as the sample grows.
- Where to go – pick-up, objectives and hand-in available
- Typical time and objective order – median and middle half needs 3 completed runs (now 1) not yet
- Tips – what most players do needs 5 runs (now 1) not yet
- Where players die – death hotspots on the map needs 5 characters from at least 2 different people (now 1 from 1) not yet
Timings
Based on 1 completed run. Published by the analyser – low confidence.
Same 1 run; mean 31 s.
Counting every recorded attempt, finished or not.
0 tracked kills, typically 1,100 XP, done around level 21.
The route
An early route: drawn from the first runs and sharper with every upload. Pick-up, hand-in and the objective hotspots are where the quest is, so they are shown from the first run.
Map coordinates are the addon's own 0–1 zone coordinates (Azshara), origin top-left, x to the right and y downward. Drag the zone map to pan, ctrl/⌘ + scroll or the buttons to zoom; the grid lines are tenths of the zone.

Objectives, in the order players do them
No objective progress has been uploaded for this quest yet. Once somebody plays it with the addon on, the objectives and their hotspots appear here automatically.
Tips
No tips yet – they need a handful of runs before they say anything true.
