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.
