Unchecked Growth

Collect 12 Replicating Essence.

• Replicating Essence (12)

This growth energy is highly unusual. I would like to know more about how it affects the local automa.

Harvest replicating essence from deceased automa in the Catalyst Gardens.

Bring it back to me for study.

You will receive:

• 8,150 XP
• Emblem of Renown

Do you have the replicating essence?

Hmm... it replicates rapidly until it kills the host.

This is more of a curse than a gift!

The Replicating Essence is looted from the dead Overloaded Protectors throughout the Gardens. Looting an Essence causes the Protector's corpse to disintegrate.

• As the general flies toward the Catalyst, automa on the ground come to life and start firing at him. He manages to dodge several projectiles, but one hits him and sends him crashing into the pool at the center of the Gardens. Back at the ramp, Nadjia, the Maw Walker, and Tactician Sakaa prepare for combat. Draven gets to his feet and prepares to fight as well.
