What is Luminous Dust? Where can I find Mothkeeper Wew’tam?

Many of us are currently exploring the new Midnight questing zones, and while questing around Harandar you may have noticed it has a significant moth problem. These flittering critters can be interacted with, and when you catch one it grants you a single Luminous Dust.

Okay, great. Now what?

Finding Glowing Moths

The Glowing Moths are grouped into three tranches, with each tranch having two unlocks: when you can pick them up, then when you can see them on your map. Both are linked to your renown with the Hara’ti. Each moth can be collected once, and they are peppered around the zone everywhere. There are 120 in total. The moths will hide under leaves, inside hollow logs, in caves, on top of rises, etc… so look around and keep your eyes peeled.
