Spawns at 40.72. Level 68 non-elite. Just use the dust to summon him in the center of the circle.

Comment by janopdm

Ekkorash the Inquisitor spawns when you use the Conjuring Powder near the brazier located at 40.9, 72.5.

The same chick that you kill in this quest dropped the quest item for http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=10265 as well.

Comment by Mdj71

After completing this questline the staff is still in my inventory, can i safely destroy it?

Comment by cheekeemonkee

Wondering if this quest is bugged. Each of the 3 times I tried I sprinkled the powder on the brazier and killed Ekkorash--only to find no loot on her. I tried re-logging but this didn't fix the issue.

Comment by Ankari

I tried this quest this morning. I summoned and killed this devil chick 12 times and she did not drop the staff. In fact she did not drop anything at all.

Both this quest and the Consortium Crystal Collection quests are bugged.

Comment by 39249

I had no problems getting the item but she also drops Arklon Crystal Artifact for another quest, even though it tells you to kill someone else.

Comment by 38869

While you're here, you can do Invaluable Asset Zapping, http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=10203, and Consortium Crystal Collection, http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=10265

When you destroyed the item, is there a way to reclaim it?

Comment by Valustria

Do you ever lose the staff, or can you keep it indefinitely?

I have completed the "Malevolent Remnants" quest chain and the staff is still in my inventory; I'm not sure if I need it for anything anymore, or if I can safely destroy it. Is it worth holding onto other than to spawn the image of the Archmage for silly things like screen shots?

Comment by 401088

If you have a flying mount just drop down near it once its clear, use the powder, she appears, kill her, mount and fly....real easy didn't have to kill anything but her and she was an easy kill.

Comment by 327123

Used powder, killed her, looted... No staff?

Comment by BunBun

dont forget Bessy the ghostcow dont in Kirin'Var village. and when youve escorted the cow to thadell you ought to see a quest from archmage vargoth too on minimap. =) hope that helps (EDIT: he might give u a dungeon quest... and those dont count. only those that are delivered/completed to the person right at the dungeon "door" counts...)

Comment by Caglock

The brazier should have smoke coming out in the middle, and be surrounded by a series of short walls that can resemble a circle.

Ekkorash is extremely easy. I soloed her as a level 67 Destruction warlock in about 5 seconds.

Comment by 924646

Its true if yer on a gryph watch yer minimap and drop into the middle of the circle hit the summon dust. She appears immediatley so dont dawdle. Easy for me a 68 NE Warrior. It took all of 10 seconds to KIA get my gryph back n split w/no prob from the mobs. Good to pop yer adds tho!

Comment by rwaarts

I got rid off the staff before ending the quest-line.
You can request a new staff from Ravandwyr..

Comment by digger6

Still in game as of 6.1.

Even though it says you receive the staff when completing The Archmage's Staff, the staff doesn't physically appear in your bags until you complete Curse of the Violet Tower.

The Archmage's Staff http://youtu.be/i1o_zTFMnK4

Comment by Syanah

Very simple quest. Soloed as a level 67 brewmaster monk. Didn't even need to use Touch Of Death. Not elite, for flying you don't need to clear the others.
Also, if you picked up the quest Consortium Crystal Artifact, Pentatharon is also very close. Level 69, not elite, 5,166 health.

Comment by WoWGnGP

I made i playthrough of this quest if anyone wish to see how to do it :)

The Archmage's Staff

Retrieve Archmage Vargoth's Staff from Ekkorash the Inquisitor and bring it to Ravandwyr in Area 52. To bring Ekkorash out of hiding, sprinkle the Conjuring Powder on the brazier in the center of the ruins.

	Archmage Vargoth's Staff (1)
	Conjuring Powder (Provided) (1)
	Inquisitor's Crest - Bottom Half (1)
	Inquisitor's Crest - Top Half (1)

Description

Allow me to introduce myself, <class>.

I am Ravandwyr, apprentice to the Archmage Vargoth.

My master is... indisposed, shall we say. I am here on a matter of great importance.

The Arklon Ruins southeast of the city are a hotbed of Burning Legion activity. Their purpose in the ruins concerns neither me nor my master, but their leader, Ekkorash, possesses the archmage's staff.

This conjuring powder will allow you to draw the demon out of hiding. Sprinkle it on the brazier at the center of the ruins.
