After you take the quest, take the bucket and drop down below the tracks. It will show ore that you can pick up and fill your bucket up. You cannot be mounted for this nor mount after picking it up or you will drop it all.
Over time you will lose stability so you have to use the action button to replenish. Just click once and aim for the third and smallest segment - the sweet spot - and click the button again to stop the bar. This will replenish your stability and make you walk normal again.
To deposit, you have to launch yourself up on the tracks again using an interactable catapult and walk all the way to the end of the tracks (past the quest-giver) and stand near the entrance into the mountain to drop them. There will be a huge yellow arrow there.
Grab the bucket and go down.
Grab ore. Like 5 of them.
Only use the extra action button when it says : Stumbling.
You WILL DROP the ore. Doesn't matter. Walk towards the catapult at coordinates 63.66 62.89Stumbling ? Use the button.
Ore drops on the ground ? Grab it again. And move towards the catapult.
When they drop, they drop as little puddles around you, walk over them to grab the ore again.Once there, use the catapult :
/way 63.66 62.89 CatapultIt moves you up near the bridge.
From there, walk towards the bridge end where a huge yellow arrow is visible, cleaning mobs on route.
Move ore to there :
/way 61.57 62.23 DropOreLocationAt the beginning of the bridge there is smoke : go through it. It will shroud you so you can pass near the mobs without aggroing.
Do NOT mount. Stay on foot at all times.
