This is an interesting trinket, because though it is not obvious at first, it does start an as yet incomplete questline involving the green dragon Eranikus.

Whenever you "use" the trinket, as well as casting the above mentioned poison cloud, you also get rather irrate whispers from Eranikus himself. Pay attention to your chat logs. The messages will pop up there. After he gripes at you for a few times (you might have to use the item several times), he'll mention a friend he has in the Swamp of Sorrows named Itharius.

When you take the trinket to him, he'll give you a new quest, but you'll have to give him the chained essence.

However, not too far after that, when you get to the next questgiver Itharius points you to, the quest dead ends. You lose the trinket, get some gold and exp, and no clue or additional quests to continue the chain.

Tickets sent to the GMs have gotten responses that the quest is working as intended, so it's been commonly accepted that the questline is unfinished. Whether or not it will be completed, though, remains to be seen, as the dragon Eranikus is able to be summoned, fought, and cleansed in the AQ scepter questline, which has nothing to do with this trinket.

This trinket rocks for PvP. Turning it in for an incomplete quest line? Screw that! Wear it and use it. Much more worthwhile than getting nothing.

What are you, an ally?

Looks like the quest line wont be continued anytime soon based on replies from Blizzard in the official forums.

Eranikus has some funny quotes he whispers you when you use the trinket.

1st: "Will the nightmare ever end? I cannot force myself awake!"

2nd: "My soul is not a trinket! Mortal, you must release me from these chains!"

3rd: "My eyes! It burns... it burns..."

At least that's what I got.

Oh, it's such a pain to have to turn this in... I'll miss the amusement I gained as a result of his suffering.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Last one I got before turning it in...

"Torture me no more! Release me, mortal! The Swamp of Sorrows... mortal... please..."

welllll... ok Erankikus! I'll help ya out!

Kommentar von Thottbot

"I see it now! You are one of them! I will rend your soul when I escape!" .... roughly that, anyway.

Used it 20 times or so I think, and haven't used it since!

Kommentar von Thottbot

The quest to turn in the trinket is bugged and you end up just losing the trinket! Read up on the quest before you continue!

Searching for The Essence of Eranikus will bring it up.

Kommentar von Thottbot

I forget it though, its like " It hurts. Help me, help me my old friend -----!"

(Edit --- His old friend is apparently Itharius)

I forget who his old friend anyway but thats it.

Kommentar von Thottbot

this item works, but when its used we get a whisper, and im betting we are gunna be "rended", so the question is, should we keep this and keep pissing off eranikus or show him mercy and release him, and maybe be killed when he says he's gunna kill us, i for 1 wanna piss him off =D

Kommentar von Thottbot

I deals good damage but 15min cooldown is hard to heal.

Where is that quest to continue? Is it still bugged?

Kommentar von Thottbot

I got " Foolish mortal, I will rend your soul in two once I am released!"

45 wonderful seconds of rogue de-stealther goodness.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Today on Uther, there was a server-wide "emote" colored message that said "Eranikus, Tyrant of the Dream, has entered our world." I ran to the bank and pulled out my Chained Essence and used it, and he told me to go to Swamp of Sorrows...hmmm.....interesting....

Kommentar von Thottbot

Shade of Eranikus is in Sunken Temple, but
when you see that global message that means
the REAL Eranikus has been summoned...

The real Eranikus spawns in MOONGLADE
and he is a hardcore boss used in part
of the AQ quest.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Has nobody got "You are an agent of their wicked god, fool. I will see you destroyed!"

Kommentar von Thottbot

I LOVE this trinket! on my 60 pally if its cooled down, i use it on what ever comes twardes me. its murdered vancleef, left hoards of Scarlet crusaders, and really stunk up the place in dire maul. untill the quest is fixed, im NEVER getting rid of it unless the reward is better

Kommentar von Thottbot

The quest is working when i gave both items in it said to go to winterspring for the next part of the quest

Kommentar von Thottbot

It is really useful in PvP, mostly in AV, I use divine shield, run into a group of hordes use the trinket and consecration to make them back off. Then I just change trinket and use it again when cooldown is 0.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Use this in AB while defending the flag. PWNAGE!

It makes all innocent players turn into those disgusting ghouls in Scholomance. You know those, the ones that make priests yell: "GET THE !@#$ out of the fart!" And then the rogue dies and yells "HEAL?" and then the priest yells: "GET OUT OF THE GAS YOU #$%^ing N00B" and then the tank yells: "that's it, I'm out. I'm going back to stratholme"

Think what that might be like in PvP...

Kommentar von Thottbot

OMG this is the best trinket ever, from my name u can prolly tell i'm a druid, but what i do is go to AV, stealth as close to the alli group as i can, then when sum1 finally sees me i come out of stealth in cat form and use dash so i'm going at over 160% speed since i'm feral, and use this trinket on all the healers in the back. after that i usually get pwned, but is hella funny cuz the healers in back don't know if they should heal themselves or the tanks, and the tanks up front are wondering wtf happened to their heals. A LOT of HK's usually follow on my screen. :)

Kommentar von Thottbot

After I read all the comments regarding this item I decided to do a little test. I use the item while been beside another player (not in combat) and see if the poison will affects everybody surrounding me (including myself). The poison didn't affect both of us. Instead, I get hurted by a different source. I say that because when I get attacked with spells and poison and I do not get hurt, the messague resist appears over my picture, but this time when I didn't get hurt the messague dodge appear. I honestly think that the damage deal on the speller is from a different nature, probably Erranikus trying to escape?

Kommentar von Thottbot

Mine said "You are an agent of their wicked god. fool. I will see you destroyed.

Kommentar von Thottbot

I just got this doing a "pity" run through the Sunken Temple, and I love it, how fun is it when your tanking instances or raids in the Dark Portal, one click on the Mr. Angry Pants (Eranikus) and you poison everyone around you.
I have this as a trinket full time, the cooldown bites, but it always comes in handy when ya want that extra AoE!
Thanks Mr. Eranikus, may your soul always be trapped in a green-box-of-fun!

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Apparently the quest series to turn this item and free Eranikus is currently incomplete. Blizzards plans to finish it later. See the comment from Jompa here for details -- https://www.wowhead.com/classic/quest=3556

Personnaly, I still carry it around and use it in some situations. Typical MO: I lay an explosive trap. Fire off a volley at the mobs on my warrior. When the mobs activate the explosive trap, I hit the trinket then Feign Death. As long as FD isn't resisted that does some pretty substantial damage. I also hear it works well when against rogues as it un-stealths them. Bwahahaha!

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Does anyone know if this item would help detect stelth things?

Kommentar von Allakhazam

After talking to the elf you obtain Oathstone of Ysera's Dragonflight that starts a quest

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Yes. Take the trinket to an elf in a cave in the far SW corner of the Swamp of Sorrows (below the lake shaped like a footprint). I don't know what happens after that.

When I use this trinket eranikus whispers something.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

ya i have idea... like on the end of this site http://wow.befunk.com/index.php/Emerald_Dream_speculation
than walk from tanafis graveyard to sos temple and look if you find him there...
or to winterspring/moonglade...

if all go look while dead for him... maby we find him... :)

Kommentar von Allakhazam

So I, and apparently many others as what I gather from thot/allah, vendored this item, before I knew that there was a quest chain which has you hand this in along with an oathstone of ysera. trouble is, once you vendor it, you can't complete what sounds like an otherwise pretty interesting quest chain. even worse still, is that the quest chain is in fact incomplete. so I would suggest not vendoring this just yet, and don't hand it in, as once you hand it in you are out a pretty neat trinket, and for nothing since the quest doesn't go anywhere yet.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

ok everytime its used he says something of being freed, and once inside the temple he said something about being close to freedom and that i need to bring him to an alter or something to free him......anyone got any ideas?

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Does this work after you die? What about after you move away from a target?

I'm thinking about using this for Kamikaze runs in PvP. Lesser invis potion -> Explosive trap -> Activate this trinket. That's about 600 points of damage per target hit. If I manage to do this in a cluster of 8 players, that's 4800 damage. It seems worthwhile when my mana is dry. It's not as good as a mage with instant arcane explosion, but still pretty good.

I guess I'll just have to try it.

Kommentar von bongobg

For those who sold this trinket, you would never ever be able to complete The Essence of Eranikus. I opened a ticket and talked to a GM:

- Me
"So, despite the loss, are you telling me there is not a single way, never ever, to complete the quest The Essence of Eranikus (ID 3374)? From all the hundreds or even thousands of quest all around the whole game, 15 years of history, that one quest 3374 is impossible for me to complete? Never ever ever? Is this really how you've designed it? Everything else could be abandoned, retaken, refarmed and so on, except this one?

Please confirm for me there is absolutely no way to complete this quest."

- GM
"I'm afraid that is the case, this is how things were too 15 years ago when this was part of a our newly launched MMORPG as well."
