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.

  • Poisoned CropsHighmountain · Level 10-45

    After driving us from the farmland and infesting our crops with insects, the drogbar placed wicked totems that further poison our harvest. I can only hope that if you destroy them, we'll be able to heal the land using Jale's water magic. Thank you for coming to help us, <name>.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • The Flow of the RiverHighmountain · Level 10-45

    We can leave Farmer Maya in charge of the farmland now that the greatest threat has been reduced. But we aren't out of hot water just yet, <name>. The fisheries are just as important as our fields, and they are in even greater danger than the farm if what Angler Creel says is true.
