Description

Look at this, <name>.

<Harrison holds up the dead scout's goggles.>

I tightened the clamp in the middle and crimped the wires on the edges. They may not be the most comfortable, but they should hold together.

If I've translated your tablets correctly, there's something hidden here - a final piece to our puzzle.

I hope your spectacles hold the key.

Let me know what you find!

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.

  • Be PreparedUldum · Level 30-35

    Every adventurer worth their salt knows never to step foot in a cave, dungeon, crypt or tomb without an ample supply of rope... right? Well, mine was in that wagon full of explosives that you set off. How about searching around here and seeing if you can't find some.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Tipping the BalanceUldum · Level 30-35

    <Harrison grins.> That's it, <name>. The pieces we need are hidden in these statues! They look to be a bit off balance as is. Maybe just a little nudge... I must say, your field work is coming along nicely. If you applied yourself, you could make a fine archaeologist one day.
