Hi, I am currently a level 74 necromancer and I haven't been offered the quest for virulent plague yet. Neither baldur goldpaws or Erik wydrune have it for me. Unfortunately, I can not learn any more death spells until I have it. Can someone please help? I am already into vestrilund so not being far enough isn't the issue.
Actually, your not being far enough into Wintertusk IS the problem. You need to reach Sudriland before you will get The Runedown quest from Erik Wyrdruin.
As a further FYI: In order to get your level 78 pet, be sure you continue questing in Wintertusk up to the point where you reach Nordriland. You must earn your level 58 pet before you can get your Avalon one.
