Description

{name}, I hear you've been over to that large green planet in the sky already. Swarming with demons too, I hear. I was thinking maybe we could put together another wormhole generator for it. Make it easier to zip around the planet. Problem is we need to get readings on the landscape, and I'd go, but uh... well I need to stay here and run the shop. Can't leave it to these bozos to handle. Here, take this and get some readings for me, will ya?

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.

  • A Harsh MistressLevel 45

    So there I was thinkin' about how to get everyone ready for movin' around Argul or whatever it's called, since I figure its gravity is different than ours, and I come up with a design for a device you slip onto your shoes, or hooves or whatever you're wearin' down there.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • The Wrench CallsLevel 45

    <name>, Didi the Wrench is looking for you back in Dalaran. You might want to see what she's working on. Pretty fancy stuff from what I heard.
