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.

  • All That SkittersThe Hinterlands · Level 10-30

    A moment if you're going up there, <class>... I've got a few brokers quite interested in potent toxins. I couldn't help but notice the spiders scurrying around near here... not giant ones, about the size of your hand. The skitterlings are a hue I've never seen before in this area.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Death to the VilebranchThe Hinterlands · Level 10-30

    We won't give them a chance to react. You must re-enter Jintha'Alor and charge all the way to the upper tiers. The Vilebranch berserkers and shadowcasters are dangerous enemies, <name>. When the others see their bodies thrown across the walls, they'll know we mean business.
