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.

  • Boom or BlightAzj-Kahet · Level 78-80

    This place is infested with cave borers. They pose a threat to the great roots that stretch through this place. Yes, the tree provides sustenance for many living things, but this is not some small band of bugs nibbling on a leaf. This is a blight.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Heeeelllp!!!Azj-Kahet · Level 78-80

    Hey! You! Get me down! Away from these worms! Please! I'll pay you! I'll even owe you one! Heck, I'll gladly sell out any cartel member you need dirt on! Just get me down! Also, don't walk too much. They can hear your footsteps. Move from rock to rock if you don't want a swarm coming after you.
