YOU HAD ONE JOB KHADGAR

Comment by thirdrail

Don't be like me and disenchant the reward from this quest. You need it for the next quest: Create Your Own Strength. Had to use an item restore to get it back.

At the completion of this quest, Jaina rewards you with your choice of 1 of the 3 items sold by Artisan Itanu / Finder Palta.

According to Snagrat, the drops from these consumables are actually random and irrelevant to your specialization.

The appearance of these pieces of gear are the 8.2 benthic sets: Shirakess Benthic Cloth Armor, Fathomstalker Benthic Leather Armor, Azsh'ari Stormsurger Benthic Mail Armor, and Zanj'ir Scaleguard Benthic Plate Armor. You can view them in in-game dressing room with these codes:

Cloth:

For those like me trying to figure out what pieces to buy for alts, this quest rewards a choice of hands, legs, or feet.

Comment by Shadowcake

Trying to complete this on my rogue, I watch the cut scene, but the objective remains unchecked, even tried abandoning the quest a few times

Comment by dakota3

If like me, you completed A Way Home and then left Nazjatar only to come back later to find no follow on quests, read on.
The next quest in the Nazjatar campaign Scouting the Palace, is gated behind the quest Essential Empowerment that you picked up from Magni Bronzebeard to go and speak to Mother.
If like me you abandoned the quest, thinking it wasn't relevant to Nazjatar, you are mistaken.
You will need to follow through with completing the short questline with Mother, to be able to then come back to Nazjatar to continue the quests with Lady Jaina Proudmoore.
Once you've done that you will be able to continue to unlock the remainder of the Nazjatar quests with Lady Jaina Proudmoore, beginning with Scouting the Palace.

Rewards are Benthic Gauntlets (hands), Treads, or Leggings each lvl 385.

Comment by Eillesthis

Also opens up: The Lost Shaman

Comment by Fiamma

I couldn't turn in this quest, the UI wouldn't let me click a reward so I couldn't complete it.
After reloading, relogging, changing characters, restarting the game... I found a Mechagon quest in my log. I abandoned that quest, and immediately I could select a reward and turn it in.

Technically we're supposed to do this quest before we can get to Mechagon, so I guess that's why? Hopefully this helps someone on their alt :)

Scouting the Palace

Speak with Lady Jaina Proudmoore to observe the scouting party.

	Vision witnessed (1)

Description

We cannot hide here forever, <name>. Azshara must be dealt with.

It would be an act of folly to assault her palace without knowing what defenses she has in place. I dispatched a scouting team while you were gone, but they have not reported back.

I'm getting concerned, <name>. Let me know when you're ready and I'll perform a ritual to see what has happened to our scouts.
