How to Get the Surge of Light Rune
As of Phase 6, all runes and skill books can be purchased from Rune Brokers in starting zones and major cities for 1 copper a piece. Each of these vendors is simply named “Rune Broker” and can be easily spotted by their purple glow, lurking very close to where new characters enter the game. You can see all of their locations in our guide below.
Original Discovery Method
This rune requires killing one of the three ghosts present in Swamp of Sorrows, Stranglethorn Vale, and Tanaris. The ghost is called Echo of a Lost Soul, and it will have the buff Protected by Shadows, making it immune to most damage types. These ghosts only spawn between 9 PM and 6 AM server time.
Currently known locations:
- Tanaris, at (52, 29), at the Gadgetzan Graveyard.
- Swamp of Sorrows, at (50, 60), near the Stonard Graveyard.
- Stranglethorn Vale, near Ruins of Aboraz, at (30, 73).
- The Hinterlands, at the graveyard near the coast (73, 68).
The ghost is level 1, has very little health, and will not be hostile even when attacked. To release it, you’ll need to attack it with either Arcane or Holy damage. Arcane damage seems to be more effective, while you may need to cast several Holy spells to do the job. Holy Fire, Penance, and Smite all work, as do the night elf Starshards and a wand that does Arcane damage. You could also have a Druid or a Mage hit it with one of their Arcane spells.
When you’ve released the ghost, loot it to receive your Prophecy of the Lost Tribe. You’ll need to have two different Priest Meditations active in order to use the item and learn the rune.
