Description

Dwarves are dumb. Don't they know that if you dig a deep hole you are going to have goren attack?

If you are going to go into that iron fort you better kill a bunch of goren otherwise they are going to chew the walls enough to cause a cave-in.

I would do it myself but I'm still stuffed from all that fruit the botani made me eat.

This is 2nd part of the cookie "start to finish" the Putting the Gore in Gorgrond, In the land of Giants and The Iron Approach.

The cookie quest start is A Heavy Helping Hand, you will get [Quest 35233] with this quest.

NOTE: there is a gold Bag @ 43.4,92.4; right of you if facing out of building, above the pulley system apparatus. (had to reload to see it, saw it with Handynotes addon).

You go to the bottom of the "hole" and your NPC will join you when you collect the item to far right (assuming you've cleared the other quest on way down). WAIT for NPC to come down and join you.

It will send you into a solo Scenario. AFTER scenario everyone leaves you (don't hearth), there is a Flight Point behind you if you died during scenario you rezed there. Fly back to Highpass and BOOM you're done.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • DoomshotGorgrond · Level 15-40

    This ominously large explosive appears to be ammunition for the primary cannon that the Bastion is built around. The loading assembly must be on a lower floor, but this ammo did not make it that far.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Will of the GenesaurGorgrond · Level 15-40

    I am pretty sure those dwarves took the artifact in that iron fort there. Are you going to go get it?
