[edit] Usage
You'll start out by taking the quest from Scoutmaster Arne at the first PoI (Point of Interest, marked by the white numbers (refer to the map I've made to the right on this page)). From there you will slowly make your way over to the first SF (Shadow Form, marked by the green numbers). From there, cast Shadow Form immediately followed by either Dark Escape or Storm Chaser. Before Shadow Form runs out (which should be 24 seconds after you cast it) get to the first RH (Regen Health, marked by the red numbers). Regen your health with Troll Unguent and Shadow Refuge (not at the same time) and start to make your way to the second SF. On your way to the second SF, at PoI 2, you might notice two red dots on your compass running across your route. Just wait at PoI 2 until they pass and then continue on to SF 2. Continue this pattern till you reach RH 4. Now, it's not really rare that a group of Undergrowth and Stone Kirins will pass by at the third PoI so be careful and watch your aggro circle! They will make their way up the stairs and will be out of your hair soon. :) Also, you may need to climb a few steps of the same stairs to reach the quest star but you won't be in any enemy's aggro circle. Slowly continue on with the same pattern being careful not to aggro everything in your path. :) Now you'll reach RH point 8 and the final PoI! Congrats! Claim your 400 Kurzick faction, 150 gold, and 2K XP!
[edit] Notes
Aggro is your enemy. For the love of God, do your best not to aggro anything when you're not running from a Shadow Form point to a Regen Health spot! :)
