Description

Unfortunately, I have no idea how to access any information within this core. But I know someone who does. Head over to "Like Clockwork", the engineering shop three doors down from here. Timofey Oshenko owes me a favor. He should be able to extract the memory out of the core.

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.

  • Hatecoil HammerworkLevel 10-45

    There may be a way to jump-start our research into leystone. I've heard reports of naga camps down in Azsuna. If they've been in Azsuna for long enough, their smiths have certainly started experimenting with leystone themselves. Be on the lookout for some leystone armor on the naga...

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Chicken ScratchLevel 10-45

    I think I have just the thing to extract the information from this core for you. <Timofey loads the core into the hopper of a clearly goblin-made machine, then covers his ears.> You may wish to avert your eyes, blacksmith.
