Objectives

Get the Sceptre of Light and then return it to Azore Aldamort at the tower in Ethel Rethor.

Description

The Burning Blade in Thunder Axe Fortress to the east is rumored to have acquired the Sceptre of Light from the Naga. Legend tells that the sceptre is able to sink entire cities under the great seas. The Burning Blade must not be allowed to possess such power.

To that end, you must retrieve the sceptre yourself! It is held by a Burning Blade seer, who studies the sceptre from atop one of the Thunder Axe watchtowers.

Progress

Do you have the Sceptre of Light?

Completion

The elusive Sceptre of Light! Your acquisition of it has removed a grave threat to the world. Well done, priest, well done.

When you walk through the gates of Thunder Axe Fortress, there's a watchtower immediately to your left. The seer is in the room at the top of the tower.

Everyone else has been really helpful here---just go inside the gate to the left and up the tower to the very top. Everyone is level 31-33. There was a chest at the top as well when I went there.

You can sneak out by jumping over the fence off the middle level.

1. Enter main gate at 56, 30
2. make a left
3. Go up free standing tower killing mobs on the way
4. When you get to the top, solo pull the outter two guards if any
5. Go through the opening of the tower on top and kill the seer and his buddy
6. Loot the seer

Note - this quest causes confusion because you can't see the guys in the top of the tower. Anotherwords you can't target through them, so many don't realize they are actually in there.

You get this quest from Azore Aldamort, 38, 27 in Desolace.

Go to Thunder Axe Fortress in Desolace to get the sceptre.
Enter the fort and go left. DO NOT go into the main building.
Go up the left watch tower (open, stick-built structure). There was an Augur at the base, a Felsworn on the 2nd level, and two Felsworns on the edge of the top level. Then inside there was an Augur with the Seer.

My main problem was I didn't go up the tower far enough. Once you go up one level, there is a ramp on the outside of the structure that will allow you to go up to the top. Keep climbing until you find the seer. Seer is always there and always drops the sceptre.

Enter Ethel Rethor, in northwestern Desolace. Walk up to the big tower. Take a look off the ledge to your right and you'll see another ledge, with a table and some little columns at its end. Jump down there and Azore Aldamort is there.

Jumping isn't necessary, but I can't really describe how to find the path up to him - not enough landmarks. Take note of how to get there without jumping, once you get there.

Enter the fort. Swing left, you'll see a watch tower. Dont get the watch tower confused with the adjacent building-NOT the building. Usually there's an Augur at the base, a Felsworn on the second level, and two Felsworns on the edge of the top level. Inside there's usually an Augur accompanying the Seer, so expect two.

I did this with my 33 Priest. I Mind Controlled the Augur (2 lvls below the seer), and pumped out as many spells as i could before it wore off, rinse and repeat until the Seer almost killed Augur. Finished Augur with Smite, two Mind Blasts later Seer was dead too.

Case anyone was wondering, in the adjacent building theres a lvl 36 Burning Blade Night Elf, named like Tyranis or somethin. Believe hes used in a quest here.

Tyranis is part of a quest called Search for Tyranis, which is part of a chain of quests starting with Vahlarriel's Search, which you can pick up from Vahlarriel Demonslayer at Nijel's Point. This quest is only for the Alliance.

You need to enter the fortress through the main gate (56,30).
Sceptre of Light drops of a Seer on top of the 1st watch tower to the left past the gates.

The first time I did this the seer didn't drop the item two times, then I abadoned and took the quest again and he dropped it. Unbugged chance is 100% I believe.

Is there any reason why I would not be able to get this quest? I'm a 33 Undead Mage....and a friend of mine was able to get it with no problem. Instead of the speech bubble icon, when I hovered over the NPC i got the sword attack icon. I'm puzzled - anyone else have this happen?

This is just a guess, but it may be because you're undead. The Argent Dawn don't like Undead much, and the quest giver is a member of the Argent Dawn

No, I'm undead and the Argent Dawn never had a Problem with me...

Probably they want us to do all the dirty work, before they burn us to ashes... - Or they realized, (unlike maaany Players) that the Forsaken are NOT the Scourge.

Another reason might be that you're in a Raid broup. People who do a lot of raiding complain that they can't get the quests listed here, and the reason for that is that they're grouped. To quote the loading screen, "You can't advance quests (other than raid quests) while in a raid group." "Advance" apparently means "accept" as well. Drop group and try again before petitioning a GM.

I have been to all the watchtowers in the fortress and cannot locate the seer. Does anyone know which one he spawns at and if he is a random spawn?
