The Saga of the Wanton Maw

The Saga of the Wanton Maw Questline has 9 quests.
The Saga starts in Meridian or Sanctum, and takes you through a few of the Mathosian zones.

Although the first quest can be picked up at level 50, I recommend you wait until you are at least level 65 to start, then you will be able to complete all the quests solo.
Most of the quests can be done without mentoring down.

The questline rewards ‘Breath of Maelforge’, the ‘Keko’ pet, and some fire themed weapon skins.

The questline is the same for Defiant and Guardian characters. However the NPC where you pick up each quest will be different! Because of this, the wording of the quest text may be slightly different too.

Historic

The Saga of the Wanton Maw was released during a one-off World Event that ran from the 19th of April to the 24th of May 2012. This event was to celebration the opening of the Infernal Dawn raid.
The event had 3 main phases. You could earn currency by doing daily quests. The currency was used to buy various items, including: The Nebula and Tindrel mounts, Flame effects for weapons and your character, and some level 50 lesser essences.
The currencies were called ‘Molten Gold Ingot’, ‘Inscribed Sourcestone’, and ‘Crystalline Rage’.
