How to finish Slay the Goo Save the World in The War Within

Slay the Goo Save the World has four requirements you must meet to complete it. Before that though, you can start this quest by heading to The Maddening Deep while the World Quest is active on your map. You can find it in the deepest zone of Khaz Algar, Azj-Kahet (/way 65, 82).

To meet the first requirement, you need to obtain a minimum of 50 stacks of Unseeming Shift, which is a debuff you can stack up while in The Maddening Deep. This is easily done by standing in the Black Blood liquid that is present all around the area.

Make sure to stand in it long enough to reach 100 stacks for an additional achievement. This will also make the rest of the quest much easier to complete. The next step is to kill a Faceless One, which is a large tentacled creature roaming The Maddening Deep.

Note that they cannot be seen unless you have 50 stacks of Unseeming Shift, which is why that step is important. They are fairly tough, but should not be an issue for you to kill if you’ve been playing The War Within and completing the expansion’s various activities.

Following that objective, you’ll want to next hunt down a Warped Sapling in the area. These look like shadowy monsters and are a bit scarce, but not too difficult to find.

Once more, you’ll want to ensure you have enough Unseeming Shift stacks so you can actually see it. The final objective requires that you slay a powerful Aberrant Deepwalker. These are the largest creatures you can find in the area and are easy to find so long as you have enough Unseeming Shift.

Aberrant Deepwalkers can be soloed, but be sure you’re well-acclimated with your class before attempting to do so, because it is strong enough to be an actual threat to you. Once you’ve felled the beast, you’re all done.
