Description

If you truly wish to see my work then you'll have to go and retrieve it as my shop has been raided of everything I've made. The breastplates of the Black Rook soldiers were one of my greatest accomplishments. They're light, yet strong and offer great mobility Relinquish my cursed brethren of their breastplates and bring them back to me. I will explain the finer points of how I made them upon your return.

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.

  • Between the Hammer...Level 10-45

    <name>, I fear that my spirit will remain bound to this place unless I am made whole again. Long ago, I discovered a cave near the coast behind Black Rook Hold. I explored the cave only to find an abominable creature that attacked me, causing me to drop my hammer as I fled.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • The Knowledge of Black RookLevel 10-45

    You have honored me with your help and now I wish to return those favors to you. On that pedestal there is all my research. Take it with you and learn from it so you may carry on my legacy. Thank you again, <name>.
