Description

Kerchunk said you guys was working on getting that mechaspider running again. Well I'm not gonna let you have all the fun! That rusty old thing's gonna need a lot of grease to get moving again. So I jury-rigged a special Grease Trap to help you gather grease from the slimes nearby.

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.
