We need more puzzles like this haha. Harder ones too, this one is usually way too easy at least the first 2 stages.
Easy puzzle after you tag the crystal. Do it at busy time and other players have already killed the baddies around it.

Step 2 of 2. Chain order is read from the prerequisite data in the current retail client build, so it reflects what the game requires, not a curated storyline.

Taken from the quest's prerequisites.
- Impossible Odds
By the titans... The Coreway appears completely destroyed! It will take years, perhaps centuries, to remove the rubble and repair the damage the nerubians did to its inner structure, much less traverse to the world's core. More than that with the Stonebound gone...

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.
