Twilight Cultist Camps

There are four places to find Twilight Cultists: Twilight's Run Cave, Twilight Outpost, Twilight Post, and Twilight Base Camp.

These mobs can drop Encrypted Twilight Text and pieces of the Twilight Cultist Armor: Twilight Cultist Robe, Twilight Cultist Mantle, Twilight Cultist Cowl. This is personal loot.

Good news on the armor: each piece now stacks! When you summon an elemental at the Windstone, you only lose one armor buff instead of all three as well.

Gathering Supplies

Event History

On this day, many years ago, a hero by the name of Kalahad rang the Scarab Gong, opening the gates to Ahn'Qiraj and beginning a war the likes of which Kalimdor had never seen.



Today we celebrate the heroics of those past adventurers by returning to Silithus and walking in their footsteps.



What's more: this is a competition between the Horde and Alliance. Whichever group can earn more credits over the next 24 hours earns the right to fly their flag next to the gong for the rest of the year.



How can I help the war effort?



Disrupt the Twilight's Hammer camps, and strike at their Abyssal High Council!



Slay the mighty silithid colossi that dwell in each of the three large silithid hives.



Gather silithyst, a valuable red spice, for our faction.



Venture into Ahn'Qiraj itself and deal with the qiraji and old god menaces that dwell inside!



Even adventurers that prefer not to fight can participate by donating war supplies, in the form of meat, to our cause.



Why are the items you sell so expensive?



Yes, both the Medallion of Station and the Ring of Lordship are expensive - far too expensive for any one person to purchase on their own.



I suggest you team up with other adventurers and select a champion. Only one medallion or ring is required to summon the high-ranking members of the Abyssal Council - but many heroes will be required to defeat them.



Good luck.
