Description

Within the Hall of Chains lie more constructs that are nearly complete. As we speak, the Margrave's forces work fervently to graft the last pieces of flesh to their horrific visages. If they are allowed to finish their work, then the destruction we have wrought thus far will make little difference in the final conflict. Our flank will be overrun by a fresh wave of horrors, and the day will be lost. That must not come to pass. Destroy any of these abominations you encounter.

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.

  • Burn Before ReadingMaldraxxus · Level 60

    The scroll you recovered details all manner of horrific ways to 'integrate' fallen kyrian into Gharmal's constructs. It is also incomplete. There must be more of these among Stitchflesh's remaining followers.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Trouble on the Western FrontMaldraxxus · Level 60

    The Ashbringer and your fellow Maldraxxi need reinforcements at the western gate. They are barely holding on! Xandria and my kin will reinforce our position here and push forward towards Gharmal. We must make haste to Mograine--without both flanks, we cannot hope to achieve victory.
