Exact quest requirements
Prerequisite: Idols from the Buffer
- 14 × Glitchfin Snapper slain — kill objective
Quest text: Aldric says those idols are Null-make — which means the glitchfin are hauling the marsh's old deletion up out of the deep one armful at a time. I will not have it washing onto my causeway. Go back to the Glitchfin Shallows and break the dredging for good: 14 more snappers.
