At level 30, Shamans can begin a class quest chain in WoW Forever that leads to a powerful weapon reward. The route starts after the Wind Totem quest, sends you into Razorfen Kraul, then across four open-world zones for Twisted Totems before ending with an elemental encounter in Thousand Needles and a final turn-in in Alterac Mountains.
This guide follows the main route only: where the chain begins, which four Totem stacks you need, the recent farming improvements, how Heed My Call works, and where to finish the quest for your final reward.
The chain becomes available at level 30 after the Wind Totem quest. The main route moves through Elemental Aid, Storm, Earth, and Fire, Heed My Call, and finally The Tempest's Weapons.
Do not begin the four-zone Totem farm before Storm, Earth, and Fire is active, or the required quest items will not count toward the chain.
The main quest route has four important stages: clear Razorfen Kraul, collect the four Totem stacks, complete the Thousand Needles encounter, and bring the final quest item to Bath'rah.
After the Wind Totem quest, continue with Elemental Aid. Enter Razorfen Kraul and defeat the final boss, Charlga Razorflank. Loot the quest information from the boss to move the chain forward.
Storm, Earth, and Fire requires 20 quest items in total: 5 Fire, 5 Earth, 5 Air, and 5 Water Totems. Each type comes from a different zone.
| Quest Item | Amount | Zone |
|---|---|---|
| Twisted Water Totem | 5 | Dustwallow Marsh |
| Twisted Air Totem | 5 | Desolace |
| Twisted Earth Totem | 5 | Swamp of Sorrows |
| Twisted Fire Totem | 5 | Badlands |
The Totem farm was made easier in a recent beta update. Required creatures respawn faster and the Totem drop rate was increased. Maraudine Scouts can now drop Twisted Air Totems, Ongeku can drop a Twisted Earth Totem, and Murdaloc can drop a Twisted Fire Totem. Twisted Fire Totems can also come from Dustbelcher ogres across Badlands.
Finish all four stacks at 5/5 before leaving the farming route. Missing even one Totem means another long trip across Azeroth.
After collecting all 20 Twisted Totems, Heed My Call sends you to the steam pools in Thousand Needles. Use the corrupted Totems there and prepare for waves of Elemental and Quilltusk enemies, including level 40 elite opposition.
Complete the encounter and obtain the Eye of the Tempest. The Eye was changed to multi-drop, allowing multiple eligible Shamans to receive it from the encounter.
The final step sends you to Bath'rah the Windwatcher in Alterac Mountains at approximately /way 80.4 66.8. Bring the Eye of the Tempest to Bath'rah and complete The Tempest's Weapons to claim your reward.
The final quest lets you choose one of three weapons. Elementalist's Guard is listed as an additional reward alongside the weapon choice.
| Reward | How It Is Received |
|---|---|
| Lightning's Grasp | Choose one weapon |
| Tidebringer's Claw | Choose one weapon |
| Rage of the Storm | Choose one weapon |
| Elementalist's Guard | Additional reward |
Choose the weapon that best matches the build you are currently playing. The quest reward screen shows all three weapon options before you complete the turn-in.
