Ancient Wardstones

In various places throughout this zone you will find an Ancient Wardstone. Use your Activate Ancient Wardstone Ascended ability to activate the wardstone and summon an NPC (Note: He may already be there if someone else has activated the wardstone recently). Each completion of one of these Daily quests will reward you with a Vile Sourceshard.

For a complete recap of all we know about these artifacts, including locations and quests, see Ancient Wardstone

Following By the Power of the Vigil any other Ancient Wardstone you find can be activated (by either Faction) using the Ascended power. When active an NPC will appear and set up camp, and may be joined by a merchant in Rare Planar Goods.

It has been reported that the Wardstone at Stonecrest Hills must be active and controlled by your faction or the Wardstone Quests cannot be done, even those at other Wardstones.
