I tried this multiple times until it worked. I figured out that you had to stay right until the end of his little speech. He then shockwaves you and knocks you back far, that is when you get credit. If you're behind him or run off after reading him the proclomation you will not get credit.

How do i get this quest i've done half a dozen in deepholm and cannot find this quest yet, do i need a certain level or is it further down the quests list til i get it? I'm level 82 right now.

Could someone please map out the rep quest chain? What are the key quests? Are we wasting rep by doing extraneous quests that might better be performed after unlocking rep? There seem to be very few quests available at any one time? Is there a phasing issue in this zone? Therazane rep is key to any raider, the information about the rep quest-chain is important.

"Take dis proclamation to him and read it aloud on behalf of da Earthen Ring. I know it be a bit of a stretch to think words will settle dis, but we have to try. Be cautious."

These Earthen Ring fellas are such liberals!

Comment by 452017

good word of advice when reading the proclamation don't have your back towards the ravine or drop offs he punted me over the river through the woods and into a nice place for me to die

Am I the only one that got stomped exactly right so I landed by the questgiver?

Comment by 861734

If you are a druid, then you should be able to pop into bird form while you're flying to prevent damage.

Comment by 863539

ok so i just completed the middle fragment, yet i have no quests available. I went to the earthcaller people/trolls/ and they don't have anything for me. Last thing i did was dropped a quest in ogrimar. i have 70 quests done in deepholm so far....what's going on?

Comment by Sanryo

Me: Choose your next words carefully,Boden. They may be your last as the imposer.

*Boden roars*

Me: Madman! You're a madman!

Boden: Pillar Fragments? You'll find plenty over there.

Me: No being, flesh or stone, no being threatens a messenger!

Boden: You bring the crowns and heads of conquered kings to my city steps. You insult my queen. You threaten my people with slavery and death! Oh, I've chosen my words carefully, mortal. Perhaps you should have done the same!

Me:This is blasphemy! This is madness!

Boden: Madness...? THIS. IS. DEEPHOLM! *Punt*

sorry couldn't resist...

Comment by neogia

If you wait out his speech and jump right when he says "foot" ("...underneath my stone -foot-."), you can get some pretty impressive air. You can drop the quest and re-acquire it from the quest giver not too far away to toy around with this. Also, when he punts you, you're moving at an incredible 1285% movement speed. I think this might be the fastest you can move in the game (apart from instant travel like blink, shadowstep).

Extra points: try to have him land you right on the quest giver.

IMPORTANT INFO:

The World Pillar didn't made it to live.
Wrath of the Fungalmancer is indeed needed for Glop, Son of Glop to be aviable.
Underground Economy is used to get to Jadefang read comments on NPC for more info.

Comment by Mousa

Now thats what I call a knockback!

Comment by Aros

<Name> says: Boden the Imposing. I come on behalf of the Earthen Ring. We wish your kind no harm. We seek to repair the rift between our worlds. Why do you attack us?
Boden the Imposing yells: Hah! Did you mistake me for Diamant, <race>? Or perhaps some other whimpering, compliant stone trogg who cares?
Boden the Imposing yells: If you seek peace, relinquish the World Pillar and leave Deepholm. This is our realm. Your only welcome here shall be found underneath my stone foot.

Imposing Confrontation

Read the Earthen Ring Proclamation to Boden the Imposing.

	Seek Peace with Boden the Imposing (1)

Provided item:

	Earthen Ring Proclamation (1)

Description

Have ya seen the looming giant in the distance to the northeast? Dat is Boden the Imposing, one of Therazane the Stonemother's Stone Lords.

We be knowin' little of da Stone Lords, but Boden is not known ta be very level-headed. Sadly, he seems to be da one leadin' dis assault, so he's the one we must be confrontin'.

Take dis proclamation to him and read it aloud on behalf of da Earthen Ring. I know it be a bit of a stretch to think words will settle dis, but we have to try. Be cautious.
