You must be the {class} that so impressed Exarch Hataaru. Can you help? The Elodor Dig just behind me is overrun by strange stone creatures. These so-called goren actually devour minerals, metabolize them, and grow crystalline structures from their arms and back. Like most of the wildlife on this world, they completely baffle us. Please slay as many as you can and gather their crystal scales for me. You'll be protecting our earthworkers and aiding our research at the same time.
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.
- Hataaru, the Artificer
I will also need you to call upon Exarch Hataaru. I understand you were helping him with our defenses at the gate. Hataaru is our Chief Artificer - he understands our technology better than any other and has been working tirelessly to recreate the glory of the civilization we left behind.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Exarch Maladaar
The council is almost assembled: Othaar, myself, Hataaru and Naielle are ready. Only Exarch Maladaar remains. He has not been himself since he returned from his capture at the hands of the Iron Horde... but Vindicator Maraad was able to track him down.

The Exarch Council has 18 steps, from Migrant Workers to Supply Drop.
