Kill the totems first as they spawn 3 mini mobs when you kill them and make the guys immune to damage while they are up.

Comment by bueno1

There is an Aldor equivalent to this quest by the same name. It begins and is turned in at the Altar of Sha'tar by Anchorite Ceyla.

Comment by 16971

Confirmed. Kill totems first.

Comment by Daddar

The mobs that spawn from the totems, do not aggro if you are far away enough, nor do they aggro the named if you attack them. If you wait about 20-30 seconds they despawn.

Comment by decker12

For Lakann I didn't even have to kill the totem. He aggroed on me with all 3 totems up and was a quick easy kill, which is good considering the patrolling water elementals.

The earth guy was particularly hard, I got jumped by him, three fire elementals and one of the walking dogs before it was all over. Had to pull out alot of tricks on that one, and by the time the dust settled he'd already respawned...

Comment by Hellvector

Lakann and Ulayru both aggro'd me without killing the totems, not sure if they are currently bugged or if it was just for me.

Comment by 20876

Kill totems first. The totems will spawn 3 adds. You do not have to kill these adds if you are a ranged class as killing a totem does put you in combat. The adds will despawn after a short while and they are not linked, so if you want, you can kill some but not all. After killing the totems, it is possible to pull the named mob without aggro'ing the spawns.

Comment by Fahiel

Easy solo as a holy priest. All mobs are fearable. I'd suggest you clear the area of elementals before starting on the totems/mobs though.

Comment by 16453

Very easy. At each one, i stayed at a distance, shot each totum one at a time, let the spawns die off or kill them. When they're gone, kill named. Of course clear surrounding mobs to prevents adds. They go down very quickly. Some will pull shaman moves on ya. The others go down like a wet paper towel. DId this as lvl 70 Survival Hunter w/pet. co'ords are confirmed.

Comment by Rohall

I would suggest that you clear around each NPC, its too easy to aggro the mobbs around them, though Lakann can be easy to get without clearing, aswell as Haalum.

Comment by 42449

I sent in my felguard to knock down all the totems. As soon as all totems are down and all the spawns have added, hit the named with a seed of corruption and start dpsing it down. When the seed explodes, it'll take out every spawn. Easy as pie.

Comment by Wraath

This is a quest involved in the Black Temple Attunement Chain:

The Black Temple attunement starts at The Altar of the Sha'tar for Aldors, and the Sanctum of the Sun for Scryers. Both are in Shadowmoon Valley.

Aldors start attunement from Anchorite Ceyla (http://www.wowhead.com/?npc=21402) at the Altar of Sha'tar in Shadowmoon Valley:
1. http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=10568 Tablets of Baa'ri
2. http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=10571 Oronu the Elder
3. http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=10574 The Ashtongue Corruptors
4. http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=10575 The Warden's Cage

Scyers start attunement from Arcanist Thelis (http://www.wowhead.com/?npc=21955) at the Sanctum of Stars:
1. http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=10683 Tablets of Baa'ri
2. http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=10684 Oronu the Elder
3. http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=10685 The Ashtongue Corruptors
4. http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=10686 The Warden's Cage

After that, the chain comes together for Aldor and Scryer.

5. http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=10622 Proof of Allegiance
6. http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=10628 Akama
7. http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=10705 Seer Udalo

Seer Udalo is found in the Arcatraz (http://www.wowhead.com/?zone=3846) just before the last boss.

8. http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=10706 A Mysterious Portent
9. http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=10707 The Ata'mal Terrace
10. http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=10708 Akama's Promise

After you finish this chain, you get to pick from some rewards and the chain seems like it ends. It continues however, inside Serpentshrine Cavern (http://www.wowhead.com/?zone=3607) from an NPC called Seer Olum (http://www.wowhead.com/?npc=22820) who you can speak with after killing Fathom-Lord Karathress. He starts the next part of the Black Temple Chain by offering the quest:

1. http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=10944 The Secret Compromised
For this quest you just return to Akama.
2. http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=10946 Ruse of the Ashtongue
In this quest, you must use the costume Akama provides, and kill A'lar in Tempest Keep: The Eye while wearing the Ashtongue Cowl. Attunement for The Eye is a whole different chain.
3. http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=10947 An Artifact From the Past
In this, you need to gain access to The Battle of Mount Hyjal in Caverns of Time, and slay the first boss, Rage Winterchill. Attunement for this involves killing Lady Vashj and Kael'Thas Sunstrider.
4. http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=10948 The Hostage Soul
For this you must speak with A'dal in Shattrath city.
5. http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=10949 Entry into the Black Temple
For this, just speak with the naaru Xi'ri in front of Black Temple.
6. http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=10985 A Distraction for Akama
Unknown what this quest asks of you, most likely you need to defend Xi'ri and make your way into Black Temple. At the end, you become attuned to enter and are granted The Medallion of Karabor (http://www.wowhead.com/?item=32649)

At this point, you are attuned and can enter Black Temple, although the chain continues and you can soon upgrade your medallion. It continues with:

1. http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=10958 Seek Out the Ashtongue
You just need to find Seer Kanai (http://www.wowhead.com/?npc=23158) inside Black Temple.
2. http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=10957 Redemption of the Ashtongue
This involves entering Black Temple, and killing the boss the Shade of Akama (http://www.wowhead.com/?npc=22841).
3. http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=10959 The Fall of the Betrayer
After killing the Shade of Akama and returning to Seer Kanai, he asks one last thing of you. Kill Illidan The Betrayer. After doing so, you are granted the Blessed Medallion of Karabor, an upgraded version of your original medallion, and allows teleportation to the Black Temple.

The mini elementals only have around 600hp quicker to just kill them than to wait

Comment by 95039

You only need to kill 2 totems, and there is only 2 little mobs for each totem

Eykenen's totems spawns 3
Haalum's totems spawns 3

/way Shadowmoon Valley 48 38 Ulyaru
/way Shadowmoon Valley 51 52 Eykenen
/way Shadowmoon Valley 56 73 Haalum

Comment by essmene

If you are high level you need to take care not to kill the NPC´s before all totems finally despawn. On the first attempts I basically one-shotted the NPC´s while the totem was "up" - even though by mechanic they should be immune. It resulted in no-drop.

So just be careful.

If you feel lost and unsure where you are in the chain, use the following copy-paste scripts:

The Aldor
/run local y={568,571,574,575,622,628,705,706,707,708,944,946,947,948,949,985,958,957,959}print"The Aldor:"for i,q in ipairs(y)do q="10"..q print(i,"\124cffffff00\124Hquest:"..q.."\124h\124h\124r",IsQuestFlaggedCompleted(q)and YES or NO)end

The Scryers
/run local y={683,684,685,686,622,628,705,706,707,708,944,946,947,948,949,985,958,957,959}print"The Scryers:"for i,q in ipairs(y)do q="10"..q print(i,"\124cffffff00\124Hquest:"..q.."\124h\124h\124r",IsQuestFlaggedCompleted(q)and YES or NO)end

Simply copy the script and paste in chat. You'll find a lot of text saying Yes/No for each quest in the chain, chronologically. Find the quest that isn't completed and look that up on Wowhead to proceed.

Have fun obtaining your Blessed Medallion of Karabor

The Ashtongue Corruptors

Obtain the four medallion fragments from Haalum, Eykenen, Lakaan and Uylaru and return to Arcanist Thelis at the Sanctum of the Stars in Shadowmoon Valley.

Performing quests for the Scryers will cause your Aldor reputation level to decrease.

	Eykenen's Medallion Fragment (1)
	Haalum's Medallion Fragment (1)
	Lakaan's Medallion Fragment (1)
	Uylaru's Medallion Fragment (1)

Description

According to Akama's letter, four fragments of the medallion were unearthed and given to the Ashtongue Corruptors. These dreaded Broken were once powerful shaman who now defile the very elements they revered.

Haalum, Corruptor of Air, can be found at Netherwing Pass. Eykenen and Uylaru, Corruptors of Earth and Fire, were last seen at the Fel Pits near the Hand of Gul'dan. Lakaan, Corruptor of Water, is rumored to be near Coilskar Point.

Find them and obtain the medallion fragments.
