Description

The crafters, artisans, and explorers of the Dragonscale Expedition are ill-suited to the vigors of battle. But not you and I, {name}. Here in the Dragon Isles, let us use that strength to protect those who can't protect themselves. Clear out the elementals encroaching from the north, so that the expedition can focus on their noble pursuits.

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.
