You've got some swift feet on you sonny! Thanks for lending a hand with those explosives... I've been waiting to give that invention a good test run for a while! Go ahead and tell Ricket we should be covered on the magnataur front now... my sappers will clean up any of the remaining baddies. Thanks again!

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.

  • A Flawless PlanThe Storm Peaks · Level 25-30

    Hey there! Joining us for the assault I assume? I've got a special task for you... we're going to bring the whole cave down on their heads! Towards the back of their cave, you should find Frostgut's Altar. Sneak up and plant this hardpacked explosive bundle somewhere close to it.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Offering ThanksThe Storm Peaks · Level 25-30

    Ah! Thanks for coming up here, lad. Judging by your wide eyes and shivering hands, I'd venture a guess that you're somewhat new. Sounds like it would be good for you to meet our gracious hosts then! We've got some extra medical supplies...
