Description

A hat and some smooth talking won't get us in to Freehold this time, so I'm thinking explosives. And I'm thinking we steal them from Ashvane. Fair's fair, right? She takes something from Lady Katherine, we take some Azerite empowered grenades from Ashvane. Okay, so it's not really the same, but you get where I'm going with this. Head over to Ashvane's Foundry. Grab the biggest Azerite Grenades you can get your hands on. While you do that I'm going to get us some air support.

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.

  • A Local GuideLevel 50

    I've spent a lot of time as a guest of the Harbormaster and I've come to understand a few things about Flynn Fairwind. If anyone can quickly help you to sort out any clues in Freehold, it will be him. Flynn's been doing work for Cyrus and can be found in the Harbormaster's office.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • The Keys to Success in FreeholdLevel 50

    I've been known to be a betting man, and I'd place good odds on the information we need being in Harlan Sweete's Strongbox. This would be far too valuable to put anywhere else. I bet they haven't even moved the chest. The problem is the security features.

The Pride of Kul Tiras has 24 steps, from What You May Regret to Thros, the Blighted Lands.
