Enchanted Coral (old) (6)

Description

Take a look around you. The ruins and beaches are overrun with spitelash. Recently, the wretched creatures have learned to recognize the rare components indigenous to Azshara. Specifically, I speak of enchanted coral—they are drawn to it by reasons unknown to me. Now there is little coral left in the bay, and it is vital to my research. I need you to separate some enchanted coral from the spitelash sirens and bring it to me.

Reward

You will receive:75

Progress

The spitelash sirens are surprisingly adept mages. Not as adept as you, I hope?

Completion

This is a superb specimen of coral, <name>. Your skills are unquestionably precise and deadly. Do not think your efforts have gone unnoticed. Perhaps you are worthy of a true test of your skill...

Gains

Upon completion of this quest you will gain:

5100 XP (or 30 at level 70)

Quest progression

Patch changes

Patch 1.7.0 (2005-09-13): Added.

-== The Tribe as Faction ==
+{{Elinks-quest|8252}}
-I'm friendly with the zandalar tribe, and i surely got 100 rep for each High Priest and 100 for gahz'ranka.
-Also for the "Bijou for Zanza" i have gotten 75 rep for destroying the bijou, 150 for delivering the quest, and 3xhonor token from it(1 from bijou, 1 from quest, 1 in mail)
-So i'm not sure if it matters what current faction status u have, but the info in the article is either incorrect or incomplete
-LowRise: At Neutral I too got 150 rep and an honor token for "A Bijou for Zanza," plus another honor token in the mail from Vinchaxa maybe a day later (in addition to the 75 rep and honor token from destroying the Bijou in the course of the quest).  I've updated the page.
-Lukian: How much reputation does killing Jin'do give? I'll update tomorrow if someone doesn't beat me!
-==Zandalar individuals==
-What are individuals from this tribe called? In the article, both Zandalari and Zandalarian are used. [[User:Rolandius|Rolandius]] [[Image:Paladin.gif|25px]] <small>([[User talk:Rolandius|<span title="Rolandius's Talk">talk</span>]] - [[Special:Contributions/Rolandius|<span title="Rolandius's Contributions">contr</span>]])</small> 14:19, 7 January 2009 (UTC)
-:I would guess Zandalari. It would fit with other troll tribe names, such as Amani, Gurubashi, Drakkari, Hakkari and so on. You never see any trolls referred to as Gurubashians for example. {{User:Jormungand01/sig}} 15:56, 7 January 2009 (UTC)
-== In WotLK? ==
-There are a few Zandalar NPCs up in Zul'Drak. Should we put down a note or something about their slight presence in Zul'Drak? [[User:Toran Wildpaw of the Frenzyheart|Toran Wildpaw of the Frenzyheart]] ([[User talk:Toran Wildpaw of the Frenzyheart|talk]]) 16:25, 14 March 2009 (UTC)
-:I was thinking about the categorization of said trolls in [[Zim'Torga]]. They are a part of the Zandalar tribe, but not part of the in-game faction. Should a distinction be made? Especially with [[Zandalar]] possibly being in the next expansion.--{{User:Sandwichman2448/Sig}} 02:38, 10 July 2009 (UTC)
-== Previous Sacrifices? ==
-"This is the third time trolls have sacrificed their gods and stolen their power, previously in Zul'Gurub and Zul'Aman."
-Correct me if I'm wrong, but in ZG the champions/avatars of the gods were corrupted and mind controlled, not the gods killed. And in ZA I dont recall them killing their gods either, just being avatars like in ZG. In fact, the summoning of the ZA gods in Zim'Torga indicates they are still alive doesnt it?
-I mean, yes the avatars of the Drakkari gods did the sacrificing, but that doesnt mean you need to kill your god to be an avatar. The ZG avatars were sent to ZG by the Zandalar Tribe IIRC, and they were sent *because* they were avatars of their gods. Surely the Zandalar wouldn't have associated with them if they had to sacrifice their gods to become such?
-==Crest==
-Seriously. That crest is from the [[Cult of the Damned]], not Zandalar trolls.--[[User:Lon-ami|Lon-ami]] ([[User talk:Lon-ami|talk]]) 19:50, 10 July 2009 (UTC)
-:I knew it looked familiar... if that colored version was in the proper category I would have seen it =(. But thats Bliz for ya... putting a crest on a page completely unrelated to it... {{User:Coobra/Sig4}} 19:55, 10 July 2009 (UTC)
-::Also, Sons of the Storm has it named "Cult of the Damned crest" or something like that {{=P}}.--[[User:Lon-ami|Lon-ami]] ([[User talk:Lon-ami|talk]]) 20:07, 10 July 2009 (UTC)
-::What do you mean, Coobra? I don't see the Cult crest on Blizzard's Zandalar page... -- [[User:Dark T Zeratul|Dark T Zeratul]] ([[User talk:Dark T Zeratul|talk]]) 21:36, 10 July 2009 (UTC)
-:::It's in [[Dark Factions]]. [[User:Benitoperezgaldos|Benitoperezgaldos]] ([[User talk:Benitoperezgaldos|talk]]) 21:39, 10 July 2009 (UTC)
-::::''Dark Factions'' actually uses that crest for the cover of the book and to seperate most of the sections from each other. In essence, there are multiple places in the book with that crest. This one just happened to be tricky in that it looked like it was being connected to the Zandalar tribe if you didn't take a macro perspective of the book.

-== Naming ==
-Much like all the other [[:Category:Factions|factions]] specifically named in WoW, this should be capped as well... which is why it was moved to [[Zandalar Tribe]]. {{User:Coobra/Sig4}} 00:17, 18 July 2009 (UTC)
-:I'm not sure but maybe we should split the article into two: one for the faction and one for the tribe. This way the faction would be capitalized and the tribe will be lower case. [[User:Benitoperezgaldos|Benitoperezgaldos]] ([[User talk:Benitoperezgaldos|talk]]) 02:58, 18 July 2009 (UTC)
-::That might be a good option... considering they'll most likely make an appearance in their next expansion and this article will grow too large requiring a split anyway with STV quests and such, and whatever they do in the next... thats of course if they continue to use the same reputation/faction name. They could change it like they did with CC to CE in BC, that way players can't start at exalted with them. {{User:Coobra/Sig4}} 03:03, 18 July 2009 (UTC)
-==Split==
-I think we should split this article between the faction and the tribe, just because, for example, there are a lot of members that aren't from the faction.--[[User:Lon-ami|Lon-ami]] ([[User talk:Lon-ami|talk]]) 10:40, 29 July 2009 (UTC)
-==Potent Potables==
-The reputation chart shows this as a repeatable quest that rewards 50 rep. I did this quest today and don't remember getting any rep from it. Can anyone else confirm? I don't want to edit it and be wrong. [[User:Gilmoreja|Gilmoreja]] ([[User talk:Gilmoreja|talk]]) 09:56, October 8, 2010 (UTC)
-:If the comments on WoWhead are correct, then the reputation reward was removed for this quest in patch 3.0.9. {{User:Coobra/Sig4}} 20:09, October 8, 2010 (UTC)
-== Status in Cataclysm and CM's response ==
-The plot thickens, with Zarhym putting in his 2 bronze coins. I felt it didn't fit in the main page, so I've posted it in the discussion area instead:

-That seems like a stretch to raise a concern. It seems like you're conceding that this type of political strife happens all the time in real life, but because we're talking about fantasy fiction, you're afforded an opportunity to suspect us of writing a convenient story advancement for trolls.
-Sure, you worked with the Zandalari in the past. To say that they were true allies of the Horde and Alliance though is to not understand their history very much. Couple the fact that they believe in their racial superiority with the collapsing of nearly every known troll civilization, then add an earth-shattering event driving all political forces into a panicked state, and... you have completely unpredictable outcomes. So whether or not you're happy that your leadership is now openly at odds with the Zandalari, I don't think you can adequately call "foul" on the story. Troll history runs so deep and is so complicated that you can't just say, "yea, but I don't think the Zandalari would do that."}}</blockquote>
