Fun with Fungus

Use the Shimmershrooms to safely gather 12 Volatile Spores.

• Volatile Spore x12

It is our mission as rangari to explore and understand this world. Around you is the Umbrafen. Many draenei lost their lives when we first discovered this place. The volatile spores burst whenever anyone approaches.

But we watched... and we learned.

Around the swamp you'll notice "Shimmershrooms," distinguished by their orange glowcaps. Their dust will make you invisible to the volatile spores. Grab the spores - gently! - and bring them to me.

We will forge this savage world into a weapon.

You will receive:

Remember, unless you are covered in shimmershroom dust, the spores will explode as you get near.

Careful with those... hand them here. Wonderful!

I will have my rangari bury these around the perimeter of Elodor. If the Shadowmoon orcs attack us again, they are in for a nasty surprise!

Draenor is a hostile world, but if we can take the time to learn and understand it, we can turn it to our advantage.

I will finish up here and meet with the Exarch Council shortly. I will be sure to back your proposal.

If Hataaru's quest was done first, Exarch Akama will be here:

• 13850 XP
• +250 Council of Exarchs reputation

Pick up The Sting from Rangari Chel before heading out.

Don't kill the Volatile Spores without having clicked on an orange Shimmerspore mushroom in the Umbrafen. Stay mounted! After interacting with the mushroom, the spores are friendly for 30 seconds. Quickly run around and gather up spores.

At the northern end of the Umbrafen, keep an eye out for Ba'ruun, rare elite fungal giant. It drops Ba'ruun's Bountiful Bloom and 10-20x Garrison Resources.

After completion of this quest and Shut 'er Down, Exarch Akama offers Exarch Maladaar (quest).
