Description
Ared used to always teach me that the purity of the metal is key. If the metal isn't pure it will crack under stress and be of no use to anyone. For the artillery tower to function I'll need to make metal as pure as my master would, and for that I need a strong flux. The dust from crushed iridium geodes would work in a pinch, but we need to find some first. They tend to congregate underground, so check out the mine in Kuuro's Claim nearby.
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.
- Out of Jovite
Ared and I came this way because we needed a good supply of metal to build his designs and some of the best metal is the jovite that comes from the mine in Kuuro's Claim. In order to supply the artillery tower I'm going to need this metal.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Gas Guzzlers
To complete my master's designs and to stock up the artillery tower we need to use an exotic resource, namely goren gut gas. The nearby mine at Kuuro's Claim just came down with an infestation of the things. Could you collect a few samples for me? The stuff is concentrated, so only a few are needed.
