Je ne trouve pas "L'autel" pour lancer le départ de cette épreuve.

This is a great and fun quest, once you run through the big portal you'll see a large amount of shadow portals surrounding the area, with runes on the ground and a crystal to start the event.

The goal is, once you activate the event, to "lure" the Shadows into the runes, it's fairly easy as they will pursue you in a direct line.

The crystal will pulse out a shadow on the ground that will then rush to a portal, this lets you know a Shade will spawn from that portal and begin chasing you. Expect to have about two to three shades up at a time chasing you. Never forget to look behind and to the sides, as they love to flank you.

Once a shade runs into a rune, both will disappear and give you a buff. Once your buff reaches 20 stacks, the quest will complete. The runes take a few seconds to respawn, but there is a sufficiently large amount of them in the area so you shouldn't have any problems completing this one.

As a last note, some shades do seem to chase a lot faster than others, so always try to keep a rune lined up with every shade that spawns.

The 'circle shadow' generates from under your character feet and it shoots out to the portal, so the closer you are to the portal the faster the shades will come.

The best to do this is to stay by the starting crystal as it gives you the longest distance from the portals and allow you more time to position yourself

check out my video below for the example.

Either this quest is a little buggy or something.
I lead some of the mobs right on top of the circles and they go right in the middle and it doesn't kill them.

If there's someone already doing this when you arrive at the platform, wait until they're done -- it's difficult to discern which are your shadows and which are theirs. >.>

Commentaire de Wezzy

It's worth posting that if you're having trouble, you can kill ones that get too close and it won't affect your counter, as long as you make sure to lead some onto the runes, too.

Helps a lot if you're just going for the achievement ( Le châtiment par l'Ombre ) as it isn't timed and you just need to lead 20 onto runes without being damaged

Commentaire de havilah

Does anyone else get a glitch where the altar does not appear so you cannot begin the event? I'm thinking that it may have something to do with me entering the portal in travel form.

I opened a ticket with a GM and they basically said "Thankyou for adding to our bank of knowledge" without giving me any information whatsoever on how to fix it.

Commentaire de Anathelia

Something to note for people trying to do the achievement: Your achievement is not linked to the quest. If you do take a hit, but manage to get say, 6 or 7 trapped after that before you complete it, you can actually start it over again and get the other 13 the second time around.

If you're really wanting to cheat it... you can jump through the portal, then port back and start it over every 4-5, before they start spawning faster. It's the lazy way of it... but you can do it.

Commentaire de DreamMkr

If the portal is gone and ya cant get through to start the quest, just click the orb for the type of portal ya wanna go through and it will open the portal for ya.

Commentaire de 707214

Unfortunately, if you're like me, and you fell off the cliff while trying to do this challenge.. There is no easy way back up. You have to run all the way to the Northern part of the zone, and swim to the Arcane Pinnacle, then jump up around to get back.

Commentaire de fordman7795

The way I did this was start the event and mount up. Once the ghosts start chasing you, head to the front near where they spawn and sit there on your mount. Let them keep spawning until you have around 20 beating on you. Then take off on your mount in circles until they blow up. First pack i got 14 in one portal then finished off the couple stragglers.

Commentaire de hoopy

Tip to warlocks (and i assume any class with pet)
Just summon your voidwalker and put it on aggressive, then you can almost just stand still and wait. Voidy will kill all that get too close, and the far ones go into portals = achievement done.

Havent tested but i would think this works with all pets.

Bugged for me, look: http://img259.imageshack.us/img259/9805/issues.png

I've had a few run straight over the runes without anything happening.

Quite annoying really, its not like they were just clipping them, they went straight though the middle.

Commentaire de 731137

I cannot find the altar anywhere when I go to the trial of the shadow. I don't see anything to click on. could it be a glitch?

Commentaire de FlyvendeHest

I had the beforementioned issue for many weeks, checking back occasionally to see if it was fixed or not. Abandoning etc didnt work for me. Today I solved it: I upgraded my account from Burning Crusade to Cataclysm (probably would have worked with WOTLK as well - I remember reading that somewhere)

The issue for me was that actually, my client was updated all the way to cataclysm, but as my account was only BC, it reverted the two config-files in the /WTF dir. So, there it is - solved!

... and I got to see Azuregos :)

Commentaire de 751120

Easy...I zoomed the camera all the way out, and just ran forward and back, forward and back...camera out so you can see if they are running up on you from behind :D

Commentaire de 512409

If you have a flying mount and are trying for the achievement Glutton For Shadowy Punishment (for some reason the link didn't work)
Activate the quest at the altar, which is a floating pillar.

Mount, do not fly yet.

Wait for shadows to enter, some of the paths to you will require them to walk over traps.

If they get to close, fly. They will break off combat and return to their entrance.

Land, and repeat until you have your 20.

Note, the Mage Mana Shield, while it prevents damage, it does not prevent the shadows from reseting your counter to 0 if they touch you.

It feels like cheating, but I could not get above 6/20 until I tried this.

Note also that the count will survive returning through the portal, and if the quest times out, you can get off your mount and restart it.

Note III, the achievement is totally seperate from the quest and can be done after finishing the quest, which only requires 20 shadows, not 20 shadows without damage or touch.

This is how you do it perfectly and get the achievement youtube.com/watch?v=N9FmFcMWDHo

Commentaire de lovkyne

Probably a bug, when I came to the place to do this quest, there was said to touch the altar to start-but there wasn't any altar.

EDIT: they fixed it ^^

Commentaire de 776309

i have the same issue as lovkyne accessed the location through the portal when i got there i was told to start the quest by touching the altar but the altar is not there.

Commentaire de 777314

Also , you can't get Quêtes d'Azshara if this quest isn't working

Commentaire de 933764

Summon your mount right after you touch the alter if you have one. Also I agree with Hoopy if you are a warlock getting your void walker helps keep the shadows away if they dont get hit by a ruin.

Commentaire de GibbleFenwick

There are a few things confusing about this quest.

1) The portal to the quest location doesn't work as normal. And the quest text is misleading.
It's not enough to simply click on the Shadow Portal Stone.
It also doesn't help running through the big round portal doorway nearby. (Something that often works for similar portals.)
No, you have to right click the stone, then right click the portal.

2) You don't hand in this quest where you pick it up, but instead where you do the quest.
It should be easy enough to notice the question mark over the Image of Xylem at the shadow platform when the quest is complete.
But at least one commenter missed that.

TIPS:
* There's an associated achievement. Even if you complete the quest, you can carry on until you also complete the achievement. (Alliance can only do the achievement, they don't get the quest.)
* If you're going for the achievement and are tracking the achievement to monitor progress, be aware that the Questie tracker doesn't always refresh in real-time. I opted to temporarily disable the Questie tracker and used the blizzard one. ymmv
* Mounting up can help, but really isn't necessary.
* Zoom your camera as far out as you can to show as much of the platform as possible.
* Pay attention to the shadow at your feet flying towards shadowy doorways. It gives you advance notice of where the next shadow will come from to aid your positioning.
