Quest Log

Aid from the Explorers' League

Aid from the Explorers' League is an Alliance-only quest for level 25-30 in The Storm Peaks. It is step 51 of 113 in The Storm Peaks storyline. The quest's turn-in marker is in The Storm Peaks at 29.4, 73.8. It rewards 1 reputation reward, 525 experience and money.

Description

Interesting. I don't see any locking mechanisms on the shell. That suggests to me that it may take more than just finding the other piece to combine the keystone.

Take the shell back to the expedition leader, Lagnus, at Frosthold. Once he gets over his awe, he should be able to glean what the core looks like based on the shell, and maybe they can get the Frost Dwarves to help find it.

I'm going to see if I can find out how to combine the two pieces. We'll catch up once we've both made some progress.

I made an account specifically for this issue since maybe putting this out here will someday help me and/or others with similar problems out.
I've finished the Norgannon's shell quest, flew all the way to the quest marker on the map and... Nothing.... There's no quest, no Brann Bronzebeard and the charged disk is gone from inventory.
I've tried reloading the UI, logged in and out of the game, I've flown from Frosthold, to Grom'arsh crash site and even back to the NPC's at Snowdrift plains multiple times now and nothing. When I sent a support ticket I got a generic response that I had to finish Norgannon's shell which I already had so no help there.
It's the last part of the quest chain in storm peaks and I REALLY don't want to do it all over again on another character but it looks like i'll have to...
If I find a solution I will post it here.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • The Iron ColossusThe Storm Peaks · Level 25-30

    We have failed to prevent the completion of the iron colossus, <name>, which means we have no choice but to face it in battle. Bruor has devised a plan to exploit the colossus' only weakness. No matter how tough the colossus' armor is, it is still vulnerable to a jormungar's acid.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • The Frostborn KingThe Storm Peaks · Level 25-30

    Definitely... I can see exactly what the core must look like. If any of the frostborn have seen it, they'll be sure to recognize the description. There's no time to waste, let's get straight to business. Go talk to King Stormheart and request his aid...
