Quest Text
It's obvious! The bloodspore moths are the entities responsible for pollination on these plains. It must be something that happens within the moth's internal system that acts as a catalyst for this pollen to work. It's all starting to make sense now, {name}. That's why the kobolds don't kill the moths and instead go to great lengths to protect them! Those stupid little rats have it all figured out! Well we'll just have to get our own moth pollen! What do you say? Fetch me some in the name of science?
Plan the run before you travel
Borean Tundra belongs to the Wrath of the Lich King archive. Start with its campaign track if this record is unavailable or the next step is missing.
Check the exact quest giver and turn-in records above first. Use this page's community comments for phase changes, cave entrances, spawn timing, and corrections from the live game.
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.
Objectives and map pin
Blizzard's public API publishes a quest's text and rewards but not its objectives, its own level, whether it can be shared, or any map coordinate. Nobody has synced quest 11717 yet, so there is nothing to show here rather than a guess. Running the WowGodSync addon while you play contributes those fields for everyone.
Check it in game
Quest completion is stored per character on Blizzard's side and is not in the public API, so paste this in your chat box and it prints true or false for “Pollen from the Source” on the character you are logged into.
/run print(C_QuestLog.IsQuestFlaggedCompleted(11717))/run print(C_QuestLog.IsQuestFlaggedCompletedOnAccount(11717))A false also comes back for a quest id the client does not know, so it means “not recorded as complete” rather than proof the quest exists on your account.
