Spoiler Alert: This quest is designed to fail - so don't worry too much about what you are doing here.

The major steps are:


  2. Set up Defenses - The arrows on the ground indicate the attack vectors of the nerubians. Use buttons 1-3 to place sticky stuff and bombs where the arrows are.

  4. Speak to Baelgrim and mount the Stormrook.

  6. Attack the nerubians - Push 1 or 2 to fire on the ones on the ground. Push 3 when you get attacked in the air.

  8. Wait for Zirix to appear. Attack Zirix, then watch the cutscene.

Description

The nerubians will strike out in anger and pride--which is exactly what we want. They will swarm the meadery soon, seeking to punish us for attacking their burrow. We will hold them here on the ground while you take to the skies. When Zirix appears to command his army, we will light the fuses. Wenbrandt scrounged together some supplies we can use to corral the nerubians. Set them up quickly, and then we will get you on a stormrook. Go!

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Poking the Spider NestIsle of Dorn · Level 70-73

    The meadery is evacuated and the explosives are primed. It is time to bait the nerubians into our trap. Your compatriot is by the nerubian burrow north of here. She told me her directive is to keep watch over it in case the nerubians make a move before we are ready.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Return to the CorewayIsle of Dorn · Level 70-73

    We dealt a heavy blow to the nerubians. But Baelgrim... <Adelgonn pauses to compose herself.> He was infuriatingly rigid and we argued ceaselessly, but in the end... he was a defender of our people--all of them. Baelgrim sacrificed himself to vouchsafe the Isle of Dorn from the nerubians.
