Back to Him
A verified Blizzard quest record. Use the archive brief, rewards, and linked research to finish it without losing your place.
What To Do
Complete the quest objective shown in your tracker, then return to the turn-in NPC.
Quest Text
Even with Humility's Guard in hand, if you are to convince Athanos to join the Path of Ascension once more then you must prove yourself a worthy adversary. Enter the ring and wield the spear against him. Even with its power you cannot hope to defeat him, but it should be able to parry his mighty stomp. Thwart his assault for long enough, and he will surely allow you to capture his memory.
Plan the run before you travel
Check the quest area, faction, and level range before you travel. If this quest is part of a chain, finish nearby campaign quests in the same zone first.
Open the Wowhead page for coordinates, NPC spawn comments, cave entrances, and player-submitted route notes. WoW-God links out instead of copying community comments.
No group size is listed by Blizzard, so this is usually soloable unless the objective text says otherwise.
Pin the quest in-game, enable objective outlines, then use the exact-title references in the archive for NPC or object coordinates. Add a correction below if the live game differs from this record.
