Getting this factory up and running will be a challenge, but I think we'll figure out something. Let's head back to Gundargaz and consult with a friend of ours. His mind will be a big help to us here.

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.

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Factory ReconThe Ringing Deeps · Level 80

    ZZ-01-47 should be able to make its way in there without drawing too much attention. But be careful! These goblins are hungry for raw materials. If they spot our bot, they won't show it mercy.

  • A Plan Comes TogetherThe Ringing Deeps · Level 80

    We have our work cut out for us, <name>. But I think, with Dagran's help, we can break this down and tackle it piece by piece. Why don't you take us through what we've learned so far.
