What to do

StorylineBurning Steppes, step 21 of 82

Description

We're headed to Chiselgrip, right in the center of these steppes. We'll rendezvous with the Thorium Brotherhood there, as well as with my father. Are you familiar with the Brotherhood? Those dark iron dwarves have helped me out more than once. We may need their help again. We'll pass through Black Tooth Hovel on our way there. What do you say we kill a few of the Blackrock while we travel? I'm getting a little restless here in this camp.

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.

  • Return to AriokBurning Steppes · Level 15-30

    Well I suppose I'm done with you here. I'll go shoo those other warlocks out when I build up the courage. Here, don't forget those supplies.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • A Needle in a HellholeBurning Steppes · Level 15-30

    You and I can't take on an army, <name>. They'll overwhelm us. That's why we've got to stick to Troteman's plan. The next part of the plan is going to require a bit of subtlety... something that I'm not terribly good at. That's where you come in.
