Retrieve 10 Obsidium Meteorites.

•  [Obsidium Meteorite] (10)

Description

Have you seen those fireballs falling out of the sky? I saw one crash in the fields to the north, and the rock that landed was made of pure Living Obsidium!

I can use the material to craft ultra-sturdy heat proof armor and weapons for our troops. Can you bring me a lode?

Go to the Magma Springs

^{[43, 49]}

and touch one of the magnetic stones. Just watch where you're standing when the rain of fire hits, and gather up the rocks before they crumble from the impact.

Rewards

You will receive:

• 16 54
• 2  [Mark of the World Tree]
• 69400 XP
• 250 reputation with Guardians of Hyjal

Notes

• Just as the quest text says, find one of the Magnetic Stones jutting from the ground. They will look like stalagmites. Interact with it and note the dark patches of ground that suddenly spawn around it. This is where the meteors will land, and when they hit, they do have a knockback effect and do some minor damage.
• Gather the obsidium meteorites that have fallen to the ground. There are a random number, and they have a tendency to despawn fairly quickly. It appears you can use the same Magnetic Stone more than once.

Media

One of the Magnetic Stones.

The Stone summoning fiery meteors.

Now to collect your Obsidium Meteorites!
