A More Challenging Career quest is located in Drustvar Anyport on Kul Tiras Isle at 19.80 44.57 .
It's a part of [spell=265852] quest line to obtain [spell=253357].
To complete the quest collect 20 [item=161082] from any platinum ore node, you'll get more from rich nodes.
Bring [item=161082] to Myra Cabot in Bolarus.
You can use Enchant Gloves - Kul Tiran Mining to speed up ore gathering.I think that the best place to farm Platinum is Stormsong Valley
