Dialogue[edit]

During event
Surging Current: Damned creatures! Off with you!
Surging Current: Damned elementals! Off with you!
Once the rod is repaired
Surging Current: Good, good.
Event success
Surging Current: Well done. But our work continues. Collect yourselves for a moment.
Surging Current: Then comes the hard part.

Notes[edit]

The Weather Conductor achievement is currently bugged as once it fails on a specific map instance, it will not reset for future events unless the event itself fails. Your best bet for that achievement is thus to join a fresh map instance and participate to the first event of that instance - see this forum post for a full walkthrough.
