Description

As you have probably figured out, Black Blood exposure is bad for your health. And that's a problem for our operation. We can't keep replacin' our workers. It's expensive, and it ain't ethical. So! What's the solution? Replacin' our workers with my fully-automated bots. These beauties don't get affected by Black Blood exposure. They just dig and haul--precision, efficiency, an' no more sick workers! I just need more scrap to patch 'em up. You in?

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.
