Description

Okay! Using the spare parts you've found for me, I've got a framework roughed out for my versatile new assault vehicle. All I need now is a compact power supply.

I've noticed that the indigenous wildlife here packs quite the punch, electrostatically speaking. Can you hunt down Thunderheads near the base here and get me an intact electrogizard? It might take a few kills to find a usable gland.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Powder PlaySouthern Barrens · Level 10-30

    Our shipments of saltpeter from Dustwallow have been held up, which means we can't manufacture our own gunpowder here. But I can retrofit our armaments to use goblin Blast-O powder. It's unstable, dangerous, toxic to the skin, and harmful if swallowed... but I think I can make it work!

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Claim the BattlescarSouthern Barrens · Level 10-30

    The Horde has fought us to a standstill from their stronghold west of here. The fighting continues, even as the land breaks open under our feet. Someone's got to break the stalemate! I need you to venture into the Battlescar and help my men crush the Horde opposition there.
