The summoning circle is a pain to find if you don't know where to go here are some directions:

Go down the spiral hallway leading down right behind Gakin.

Go down the first set of stairs and then take a right.

Go down the second flight of steps and take another right going right around the corner.

Go down the third set of steps and take a left.

in the middle of that hallway area there is a 4th set of steps take a left and you will see a glowing emblem on the floor, that is the summoning place.

Click on the choker and a voidwalker will be spawned. You can use your imp to fight it. It was easier than any other level 10 mob I have come across

Yeah, I feel like a moron as well. But hey, good directions and it was found and I'm summoning my void without incident now. Yay!

Comment by Thottbot

I guesse Im pretty lucky :P found it right away :D

Comment by Thottbot

Thnx for exact directions, it's really easy to miss that left turn. And i do feel stupid now. :P

Comment by Thottbot

Not easy to find. Tried the directions 4 times, and finally. But its true:

Go down the spiral stairs and down the flight of stairs. Then turn right, right, right, left, and in the MIDDLE of the corridor you turn left, and there the room with some purple circle in the middle, is!

Good luck, he was easy to beat though^^

I keep missing this each time. The directions confused me a bit, they're correct, but I hardly spotted that I was IN a corridor before I'd walked past the spot where you need to turn left. If you get to a 'dead end' with two rooms almost adjacent to eachother, between them there will be a stair down.

Comment by Thottbot

Thanks for the help with finding the circle.For those of you having problems take the stairs behind Gakin and just work your way down. As for the pet question I used my imp to fight the VW.

Comment by Thottbot

When playing a druid i wandered into this place and was like " cool name i wonder where these stairs go..." so i just wandered around and found the damn thing! Its not that hard just wander around... its not a crime to walk.

Comment by Thottbot

Is is inside the room, behind the guy that gives you the q. A spiral down... and follow the other directions :)

Comment by Thottbot

its a pain in the ass to find that darn circle

why did they hid this so well?

Comment by Thottbot

how do i get the soul shard someone told me to kill something and do drain soul right when it dies and i didn't get the soul shard i tried like 50 times do i have to get a soul bag? or do i have to some how summon the viod walker again and use drain soul on it instead?

Comment by Thottbot

i can found the circle but i cant summon it! theres a girl standing in the middle of it, dno if she is the prob. the summon bar goes all the way to the end but nothing happens! wat should i do? is that a bug?

Comment by Thottbot

You must use the Soul drain.It's your skill.If you didn't learned it, you would learn it from your trainer. Then you must go to the monster and use Soul drain. After the time you will have a soul shard in your backpack.

GG Blizzard.........GG...........

Comment by Thottbot

ok if you want a soul shard the easiest way to do it is when your fighting and ur enemy's health is most of the way down click on drain soul because you'll only get a soul shard if they die while your channeling.

also could they have made that damn summoning circle any harder to find? i ended up stumbling on to it by pure accident.

Comment by Thottbot

Soul shards are gained after using Drain Soul and having the enemy die. However the enemy MUST give you either Reputation or Experience, so you cant just do it to anything.

Comment by Allakhazam

There was another Warlock at the circle when I got down there who died while trying to beat the VW and since the previous poster also seemed to have trouble I thought I might mention something.

The guy who I watched die fighting the VW didn't have his imp out. He was trying to take it all alone which I guess might be possible but I don't see why anyone would care to do it.

I had my imp out and on aggressive and let him take the first few hits while I got off my DoTs and curse. I then used a rank two Shadow Bolt to draw the aggro off the imp and the fight was over by the time I got off the second Shadow Bolt.

Looking at the amount of health I had left it wasn't really necessary to have the imp take any damage (especially with a healthstone in case of emergency). With the added damage coming from the imp the fight was rather quick and pain free. Much easier than getting the choker for the quest that leads up to this one.

The summoning circle is a few flights of stairs down from where the quest was given. When i got to the summoning circle there was a big purple abstract design on the floor, and a lady standing in the corner. When i summoned the VW i cast corruption, imiolate, and shadow bolt and had my imp on aggresive. I took most dmg but didnt even get down to half health. There was no need for healthstone. Overall an easy fight.

Comment by Allakhazam

The voidwalker is very easy, even as lv 10. Heres what you do:
1) summon imp on agressive
2) spawn voidwaker
3) while imp fights it, cast your imolate and the otehr curse that rots his hp away since imolate and the other DOT spell stack.
4) cast fear on the voidwalker so he cowers in the corner of the room.
5) continus having you and your imp blast it till its a pile of mush.

This battle was much easier than getting the choker, and I think I only git hit once, if that.

Comment by Allakhazam

1
First, remember to summon the imp, and eventually set it to agressive so that it attacks the voidwalker automatically

2
Cast curse of Agony, Corruption, and immolate. Now, you can of course fear him if he's bringing your HP down.

3
Still not dead? Cast shadowbolts.

You should have over 50% of your total HP after defeating the voidwalker, even on lvl 10

Comment by Allakhazam

wut lvl is he?

Comment by Allakhazam

As it says use all the spells where it takes damage off over time. I didnt even get hit onece, but my imp died.

Comment by Allakhazam

if you are a horde player where to you get the voidwalker? is it in stormwind for the horde to?
it might be good to know before i become lvl 10 ;D

Comment by Allakhazam

I've killed him 3 times now and I'm not getting credit. I tried with and without the imp and its getting very annoying

Comment by Allakhazam

Comment by Allakhazam

Just wanted to add in the way to the circle:

Take the sloping walkway to the first steps. At the bottom of the first set of steps take a right, and go down the set of steps there. At the bottom of that set, turn left, and immediately turn left again for another set of steps. Don't go to the steps at the end of the room.

The circle is in the middle of the room at the bottom of those steps.

Comment by Allakhazam

Where is the area where you fight VW?

Comment by Allakhazam

He is really really easy to kill.

Comment by Allakhazam

Is there a trick to killing the summoned Voidwalker?

It keeps killing me, and the corpse retrieval journey is becoming a pain in the posterior?

Comment by Allakhazam

if you think its hard, so party.
we was 2 warlocks that didnt find the summon-area, so we got eskorted by a high level, and i was done whit the quest before my first shadow-bolt :-)

(the summonarea is just deeper down in the house where you found the quest)

Comment by Allakhazam

Well being a lvl 10 warlock yet to fight him i can only guess. But my strategy would be before hand gather some soul shards. Then make some healthstones and also maybe get some small healing potions. Cast rank 2 Demon Skin, possibly use one of your items that give +stats over time. Then go into battle, use Corruption, Immolation, and the Curse of Agony. From there physically attack him, use Shadow Bolt and reapply DoT spells as they wear off. Im not sure how this will fair but it sounds fine and dandy.

Comment by Allakhazam

The woman's name (she is near the circle) is Acolyte Porena. You can search her to help find the circle.

Summoning Circle is further down.

The Binding

Using the Bloodstone Choker, summon and subdue a voidwalker, then return the Bloodstone Choker to Gakin the Darkbinder in Stormwind.

	Summoned Voidwalker slain (1)
	Bloodstone Choker (Provided) (1)

Description

By retrieving my choker and besting Surena, you've proven that you're at least as capable as she was.

With that said, I can tell you're direly in need of training. You can manage the flows of magic, yes, but being a warlock is much more than that.

I will show you how to command a voidwalker, but before I can, you must call one forth at a summoning circle and subdue it using whatever weapons--physical and magical--you have at your disposal. Use the magic of this choker at the summoning circle below.
