Echo Three

Echo Three is a quest for level 15-30 in Winterspring. It is step 44 of 54 in the Winterspring storyline. The quest's turn-in marker is in Winterspring at 67.0, 55.1. It rewards 4,100 experience and money.

Description

A lot of goblins have been going missing out there in Ice Thistle Hills. I was almost one of them!

I had the idea to set up a sensor to tell us when the yeti were getting close to Everlook. Of course, it's not working either. There's yeti all over the hills and I haven't heard a peep from it.

Would you mind checking on it for me? It might still be fixable. Echo Three's set up to the southeast on the edge of Ice Thistle Hills. Don't ask what happened to Echo One and Two.

Quest is a reference to Star Wars - Episode Five - The Empire Strikes Back. Luke is caught by a Wampa and wakes in a cave hanging upside down. Also Echo Three was the callsign of Luke Skywalker while acting as a scout prior to the Battle of Hoth.

"Echo three to Echo seven; Han ol' buddy, do ya read me?"
-Luke Skywalker, Star Wars Episode V

This quest made me sooooo happy. The nerd inside me was just flippin' out during the next part.

Was anyone else like "Where's my lightsaber in the snow below me, and why am I not trying to force-pull it?"

A+, Blizzard, well done.

Echo Three is a box that is sitting right outside the yeti cave. When you interact with the box, it teleports you into the depths of the cave. You will be hanging upside down in a chunk of ice. A "raid warning" will appear telling you to chop the ice to free yourself. When you do, you drop to the floor and there is a huge yeti named Icewhomp who you have to kill.

I did this quest on my warlock, and when I freed myself from teh ice, my pet was gone and I had to resummon (don't know if other pet classes have the same issue).

After killing Icewhomp, don't dawdle in the center of the room, because he respawns very quickly.

  • The Perfect HornsWinterspring · Level 15-30

    I can't make a yeti without horns! I've been looking for what seems like forever for the perfect set of horns... and no horn I find is good enough! But just the other day I saw the biggest yeti in Winterspring. I named him Icewhomp. His horns are the ones I've been looking for!

After this quest

    It's all ready, <name>! Now, I told my friend Legacki that I have a surprise for her. This is where you come in! I'm going to give you my mechanical yeti, and you'll get the honor of using it to surprise her. She's just on the other side of Everlook, near the inn.
