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.

  • This Calls for a SpecialistLevel 1-90

    Lubbins is doing lots better now, but I think he still needs some more help. A little bit ago I met a super smart Dragonscale Expedition explorer named Haniko who works with proto-drakes all the time. She's a pet trainer, too. I bet she could help Lubbins more!

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • A Friend for LubbinsLevel 1-90

    Like we talked about, Lubbins needs two things: a buddy and a battle. I think we can get him both at the same time. This area is a prime mating ground for Shyflys. If you look around a bit, you're sure to find a bunch. Remember, you need to weaken it before you can capture it with your trap.
