This quest causes my World of Warcraft to crash. Anyone else having this problem?

Commento di Visil

You can choose one of three buffs from the great spirits as a resultant of this quest. these are:

Thistlebear gives a 10% Reduction in damage taken
Moonstalker gives a 10% haste bonus, and
Stag gives a 10% increased movement speed

Please bear in mind these effects are only active in the Darkshore region.

The essence to use is in front of the quest giver. After activation the surroundings will become blur and you will see the three spirit around you with an exclamation mark. You will have to choose on of them.

With this quest you can earn 'the Seeker' title with any character with the quest.. if you keep repeating the spirit quests.

It would appear that the quest Twice Removed is a prerequisite for this quest if you are a rouge, warrior or druid. I, as a druid, was not able to do this quest until completing Twice Removed. The quest is obtainable from Seraphine, who is standing next to Karithus.

there is a little blue ribix cube thing where the incense should be for me!

Commento di Liri

Spirit of the Stag
I am the caretaker for my kind, leading not through force, but through wisdom and swift action. Wisdom is what carries us into the deeper forest when danger beckons and swiftness is what leaves our enemies basking in our absence.

In this wisdom, I see through to your true intentions, and I know that you are deserving of my blessing, the blessing of my swiftness. It can be your, but know that the other spirits will not welcome you once you proceed - consider this carefully before accepting my boon.

Commento di Liri

Spirit of the Moonstalker
i share these forest willingly, accepting night elf kind into my home, and on occasion calling them friend. Though they have been tainted greatly in recent memory, I can see in you the same strength, honor, and spirit that first endeared them to me.

If you place value in the ferocity necessary to overcome all odds, then I am willing to call you my champion. Know that if you side with my kind, the other spirits will not accept you, so consider your choice wisely.

Commento di Liri

Spirit of Thistle Bear
For countless ages I have walked these forests and lived in these mountains. Through snow and fire, I have watched civilizations crumble and nature press on. Now, the very earth turns against us, and it becomes apparent that we must fight if our legacy is to continue.

Your heart is true, and I would chose you as our champion. If you value the thick hide and resilience of my kind, then accept my boon. Know the other spirits will not accept you once this choice is made, so chose wisely.

Commento di 222504

Does the movement speed bonus stack with any others? Including mounts?

Commento di 734088

I have confirmed the movement speed increase does not stack with others.

To everyone having trouble seeing the incense, there is a bug in the game that was introduced in patch 4.0 which causes some models, textures, and sounds to be flagged as "expansion-only" meaning even if you have the expansions installed, you will be unable to see them when playing on an account without whichever expansion the object is flagged for. This was most noticeable during the Cataclysm launch event as many of the objects there appeared all green to players on classic accounts, but it was too late for Blizzard to fix it.

They're aware of the problem, but haven't released a patch to fix it yet. Imo, Blizzard got greedy with the patch and wanted to be sure players couldn't somehow use an addon or script command to see material that was supposed to be reserved for expansions. The result was a great many objects being invisible to players who should be allowed to see them.

TLDR; if you can't see any incense, just click the checkered cube.

At the level you're doing the quests in this zone, your best choice is probably the Stag 10% run speed buff. You'll get back and forth from quest locations faster, plus as stated earlier, the speed buff will return any time you're on-foot in Darkshore, regardless of your level.

When you're in your mid-teens, due to your level and relative DPS, the percentages from the other buffs won't make much of a difference.

It’s a hard to notice smokey bowel BETWEEN Grimclaw & Keeper Karithus.

Obviously, Click the smokey bowel to summon the three animal spirits & pick the animal spirit with the attribute you prefer.

Commento di thewcloner

It is fairly safe to say that the haste buff is probably best. especially if your a caster of any sorts. if your melee then speed might be better. also as others have said the movement speed buff may be more helpful for faster questing. I know myself i was already over level 17 when i got this far so not far from mount anyway.

I just did this quest and got the stag, +10% speed,and it does stack with Wargen's dark flight. 110% speed before and 154% after(40% of 110)

For some reason, for me the Blessing of the Thistle Bear is not always working. Yesterday it worked just fine, but today all of the grizzled thistle bears are red again. D: Does anyone know why? Do I have to do something in order to activate it? And yes, I am in Darkshore still.

Chose the Moonstalker's blessing just because am a huge fan of Feline species.

I had a hard time seeing the incense mentioned. It's like a tiny little checkerboard cube on the ground in front of Keeper Karithus. This cube is smaller than one of his hooves so it is very, very easy to overlook. A few sparkles would certainly have helped.

Commento di doomboot

as of today 10/30/11 stag buff does NOT stack with druid Feral Swiftness or any forms, worthless for druids, BUT it does stack with Night Elf racial Elusiveness in Stealth for Rogues

Commento di mgramlic

The Stag movement speed buff does stack with Worgen Darkflight racial.

140% without Stag buff
154% with Stag buff

You can get 3 completed quests towards Darkshore Quests if you complete one animal spirit, then abandon the quest, and repeat.

So I just wanted to bring all the information gathered here in one post:

First off, the quest item that you need to right click is sitting at the questgiver's feet.

Second, you can only choose ONE of the three spirits. Here are the benefits of each spirit.
Stag - Grants 10% increase with movement speed (does not stack with druid forms with increased speed, does stack with Darkflight and Nightstalker), Become friendly with all Stags in Darkshore (there are very few stags in the area now)
Moonstalker - Grants 10% increase in haste, Become friendly with all Moonstalker (cats) in the area (mainly in the southern area)
Bear - Grants 10% Damage reduction, Become friendly with all bears in the area (everywhere)

Third, bear in mind that once chosen that the buff will persist even after you level past this area, but only in Darkshore, and you will not get a second chance at choosing.

My Opinions:
If you want to level quickly, choose BEAR. You actually travel a lot in Darkshore by Nightsaber provided by the Nightsaber Riders. There are far more bears in the Darkshore than any other creature. Plus the less damage will help in case that involves getting hit by a large group of mobs.
If you ever foresee yourself need to gather herbs from this area, or fish... or whatever else you can do here.... and you really don't care about the buffs, STAG will by your best choice. While there are little stags in Darkshore itself the increased movement speed will help out when running around and gathering nearby herbs or dig sites.
If your a druid or you can care less about speed and armor, then MOONSTALKER is your choice. Haste increases all extremely important stats.
I will say this however: On PvP realms it should be noted that Horde may use Darkshore to get to Darnassus or as a refuge from a failed attempt on Darnassus. Thus making Moonstalker's effect a lot more wanting since it's usable at a higher level. Bear would also help in this case as well.

My choice, ironically, is Moonstalker. As a hunter on a PvP realm, that is high enough level to make this quest green, I really could care less about where mobs are. But the haste rating will help quickly killing my opponents. Every bit counts, and no one has confirmed that the Stag buff stacks with Aspect of the Cheetah.

Final note: Please don't vote mine down if you feel like it's repetitive (it's supposed to be just a place where to find ALL the information gathered) or if you disagree with what I'm saying, unless you feel that I am totally wrong about a mechanic of something. If that is the case please state why as a reply.
