Delivering the Message

Delivering the Message is a quest for level 25-30 in Netherstorm. It is step 100 of 103 in the Netherstorm storyline. The quest's turn-in marker is in Netherstorm at 56.8, 38.7. It rewards 1 reputation reward and 4,100 experience.

Description

I'm sending one of my demolitionists out to place the disruption device. Just make sure no harm comes to him as he's placing the disruptor.

Keep him protected! He will not fight back if enemies attack him, as he is only a holographic image, but the image can be destroyed!

Return to me once the job is done.

worst quest ever.

first the bug,

make sure you are standing on the platform that summons the quest giver or else the escort NPC will not show. Tested this numerous times, it only showed up for me while standing on the platform.

Second, the design of the area.

Mobs are tightly packed, here so be careful. the problem with this quest is that there is way too much shit lying on the ground making it confusing to complete. I didn't know which way the npc would turn towards, he would turn right, and then left, making you aggro the mob to the right, not knowing that you don't have to kill it.

Not to mention the distance from the quest area from the nearest rez point, way to go blizz on keeping me logged in for an extra 12 minutes to run to my corpse.

Third, GG Bliz.

trying to add lore to this quest makes it really stupid. Not only to i have to deal with summoning the quest giver in a dangerous area, but the summoned NPC escort is just as stupid, i mean there are maybe 4 types of soloable quests in this game, why would you have to make this one any different by adding a summonable NPC in an aggroable area ?

I give you 1/10 for effort, worst quest ever.

By the way if your a mage, use mage armor its hella easier

As others have said, make sure you've got the area to the south cleared before you accept this quest, because he WILL chain-pull the entire thing. By the time I killed the first two, he'd aggroed three more and I was at half-health.

And yes, after accepting the quest you get a 10-min debuff before you can try again.

Only thing worse than an escort quest, is an escort quest with a NPC that doesn't even bother to pause on his route and had a 10-minute cooldown.

Worst quest in netherstorm, IMO.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • S-A-B-O-T-A-G-ENetherstorm · Level 25-30

    We must destroy the machinery that is making these nexus-stalker aberrations possible. To strike at their proto-accelerator would be futile as it is an ethereal creation. We must instead destroy the manaforge energy tube that they are using as a conduit.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Recipe for DestructionNetherstorm · Level 25-30

    Atop Manaforge Ultris lies the tear in the nether that Void Lord Dimensius came through. That tear provides Dimensius with a link to the Void, rendering him immune to physical harm.

The storyline at a glance

Netherstorm has 103 steps, from Distraction at Manaforge B'naar to Dimensius the All-Devouring.

Maps its steps are placed on (steps per map): Netherstorm (98), Shattrath City (4), Terokkar Forest (1).
