Freezing the Pipes

Freezing the Pipes is a quest for level 15-30 in Thousand Needles. It is step 56 of 107 in the Thousand Needles storyline. The quest's turn-in marker is in Thousand Needles at 69.9, 85.2. It rewards 4,100 experience and money.

Description

It's time to break out the I-Scream Cryocannon!

We lifted the tech from the frost cannons on the river boats. If it's one thing that we gnomes are good at, it's miniaturization by way of making everything else that much bigger!

I need you to take the cannon down there into the cave and freeze the pipes we setup in the walls. That'll jumpstart them.

  • We All Scream for Ice Cream... and then Die!Thousand Needles · Level 15-30

    Don't get me wrong... I'm cheerful on the outside, but inside I'm just terribly torn to pieces. All of my friends and employees are dead. Could you do me a favor? Would you swim down there and attach the tug's tow hook to my dead employees? I'll reel them in.

After this quest

  • That Smart One's Gotta GoThousand Needles · Level 15-30

    There's some kind of smart brain bug in the back of the cave. It's in charge of all of the silithid down there. My ice cream is melting! How am I supposed to launch my ice cream empire, and save my inventory, if that thing's in there?!
