Description

This is probably as under-control as this situation is going to get. Let's do this, {name}. I need someone to light the fuse on those bombs and it looks like you're the one to do it.

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.

  • Establishing SuperiorityIcecrown · Level 25-30

    We've one shot at dealing some damage to this place -- let's make sure we get it right. We've acquired potent, Scourge-made, saronite bombs. But we must secure this area before we can set them off. We're going to need to get the Scourge defenses under control quickly, before reinforcements arrive.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • A Short FuseIcecrown · Level 25-30

    As you light the fuse, you notice that it is consumed by fire far quicker than you would expect. The bombs are about to go off and your best chance at surviving is to lean towards the pit and hope the fall doesn't kill you.
