Description

The kobold mentioned Glintwick, did he? It sounds like she's the driving force behind these gem thieves. I'll bet my beard she's got Ausgazur's last gem! Look for her in the Waterworks and see if she has the final gem. She may also be behind the attack that's happening, so taking her out will help the defenders.

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.

  • Seeking Ausgazur's GemsThe Ringing Deeps · Level 73-75

    So it was kobolds who made off with Ausgazur's gems. I did not realize the Waterworks was under attack. Our timing is lucky for the defenders down below! We must get those jewels back!
