In the Dunes (Alliance)

In the Dunes is an Alliance-only quest for level 50. It is step 2 of 8 in the Tools of the Trade: The Ub3r-Spanner storyline. The quest's turn-in marker is in Vol'dun at 26.3, 47.4. It rewards 850 experience and money.

Description

This schematic you found is encrypted. My tools are no good on it, not without risking the integrity of the data.

However, I do know a guy who can definitely crack this cookie: Mr. Dataguru Gryzix.

If I remember correctly, he's been vacationing on a beach in Vol'dun since the war broke out. Something about not getting the recognition he deserves.

Anyways, I am sure you can convince him to help you.

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.

  • It's Scrap Work...Level 50

    <name>, I'm glad you stopped by. The Ub3r-Spanner, capable of crafting powerful constructs, and its schematic have been lost for years. Intel tells us that its schematic is located in a locked cache in The Abandoned Junkheap. You'll need to overcharge its electric barrier to gain access.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Sethrak PersuasionLevel 50

    Let me see the schematic... Yeah, yeah, alright. I can help you. I am going to need a few things to power my decoder. I need a way to channel electricity from the air around us.
