Description

Apexis technology is fascinating, isn't it? Machines powered by solar energy. Energy which itself has been imbued with magic! Simply brilliant! Ah, but there's always a catch. And I think you may have found it. Bring the interface device back to Veil Terokk, will you? I'll be along shortly with the Apexis cores. If my theory is right, we may be able to turn the Adherents' own weapon against them!

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.
