What to do
Description
This isn't a temple anymore--it's an abattoir. They tear souls from captives to power their rituals. Right now, they're pouring stolen energy into our machine. I think I know why. With the modifications we made, overloading the device with arcane energy will create a massive feedback loop. It'll disrupt our technomancy across K'aresh. The eco-domes will fail. Tazavesh will be defenseless. We'll be just another feast for the Naakroans. If you can disrupt their rituals, it will buy us time.
Where to go
Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Stranger on the Steps
Please! We have to stop the Naakroans. Three of us were sent by cartel Om to install a research machine. It was only meant to help study extinct plants. At first, the Wastelanders were polite, even curious--until we tried to leave. They forced us to modify the machine.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Only Hunger Remains
They think Xal'atath has returned for them--that their worship will be rewarded. They'll consume everything to prove their devotion to her. We came here for peace--to rebuild our shattered home. We have to protect the future, <name>. It's all we have left.
