Something to note - This quest can bug out sometimes, leaving you unable to turn it in. Don't be in a raid group (Garrison/realm hop...?) while you're doing it - it will be a guaranteed bug. You won't be able to turn the quest in at all, which is something fairly easy to overlook, but important.

Hope this clears up any issues regarding the bug.

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.

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Garrison Campaign: Seismic MattersLevel 40

    One of our junior surveyors has been harassing me about unusual seismic activity. I find it hard to believe that we accidentally built on some kind of fault line - we triple checked! Can you have a word with him?

After this quest

  • These Look Familiar...Level 40

    So what is the Iron Horde doing with Dark Iron technology? I know who ta ask! Thaelin Darkanvil is a genius engineer from the Dark Iron clan who's been helping us here on Draenor. You may have already met him in yer travels, eh?
