Radiant Phoenix Moth
Druid Gastoc asked that I kill the forest wraith in the Valley of the Watcher and gather some radiant phoenix moths for a friend of his to study.


Quick Walkthrough[edit]

  1. Talk to Druid Gastoc.
  2. (Optional) Speak to Druid Calysa.
  3. Go to the Valley of the Watcher.
  4. Defeat Timbershade.
  5. Gather 3 Radiant Phoenix Moths.
  6. Return to Druid Gastoc.

Detailed Walkthrough[edit]

Speak to Druid Gastoc in Vastyr. He will task you with going to the Valley of the Watcher, killing the Forest Wraith named Timbershade, and gather 3 Radiant Phoenix Moths. Before leaving Vastyr, you may speak to Druid Calysa for additional information about your task.

The quickest way to get there is through the Llanshara Wayshrine. Follow the dirt path north, going across the vine-tree-root bridge over the lava. Continue heading northwest over the cooled lava bridge, underneath the stone arch, until you get to the Valley.

After you defeat Timbershade, you need to gather 3 Radiant Phoenix Moths. The first can be found fluttering in the northeast part of the Valley. From here, exit the Valley through the southern path. The next moth will be flying near the base of a large, thick tree. From this one, head directly south. The third moth is behind two Stranglers in an alcove.

Once you have gathered the 3 moths, return to Druid Gastoc in Vastyr for your reward.

Notes
* Any text displayed in angle brackets (e.g., <Alias=LocationHold>) is dynamically set by the game and will be filled in with the appropriate word(s) when seen in game.
  • Not all Journal Entries may appear in your journal; which entries appear and which entries do not depends on the manner in which the quest is done.
  • Stages are not always in order of progress. This is usually the case with quests that have multiple possible outcomes or quests where certain tasks may be done in any order. Some stages may therefore repeat objectives seen in other stages.
