50K Shards for a quest is too much

The "Shard Times" quest is part of the Broken Shore quest line that is (eventually) part of unlocking flying. It requires farming fifty thousand Nethershards. I hope that's a typo. 5k maybe, but 50k?

At current, 50k shards would buy you 25 relinquished armour tokens... so 25 shots at finally getting a decent legendary. That's a high price for 1500 reputation.

Thanks for the feedback, everyone! The original currency requirement for Nethershards in this quest was temporary until final Nethershard costs and drop rates were determined. The current requirement for this quest is 2500 Nethershards. Also, *spoiler* Khadgar realizes that he was a bit overzealous and at the conclusion of the quest determines he only needs 1. So the player is left with the remaining 2499 to use as they please.

Additionally, some folks are worried that the Legionfall Campaign is going to stop them from flying. It's not! The campaign is not a requirement to unlock flying in 7.2. One of the early versions of the achievement had that as a requirement, but it has since been removed.

Then can we please have a specific list of whats needed for flying,As in whats needed for Part Two after these changes.

Can we see EXACTLY what is in the amended achievement.

Thank you.


You can see this on the PTR right now. It looks like the datamining sites are a bit out of date though.

1. Part 1 completed
2. Explore Broken Shore - Go to every POI
3. Defender of the Broken Isles - Complete Demon Assault (incl. scenario) in each of the 4 zones that have them
4. Reach Revered Rep with Legionfall faction.
