Quest Bugged if you complete it after the tower quests...

Ticket filed:
Quest: Kill Then, Of Course
- no NPC to turn the quest in to.
( I finished all of the tower stuff and jumped out of the tower for the quest )
after that I finished the quest named above and have no NPC to turn it into, I checked the tower, the room you can port to, and outside the tower.

Description

These mindless monstrosities hail from the farthest reaches of the Shadowlands. The anima drought has fueled their relentless hunger, driving them to seek new sources. Their presence here is inconvenient, to put it mildly. They tear at the land searching for any anima they can find. We must thin their numbers and buy time to safeguard the knowledge locked within the Sepulcher. Exactly the sort of work you're accustomed to, yes?

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.

  • Repeat After MeMaldraxxus · Level 10-54

    The Primus placed guardians in the area around the Sepulcher to protect the knowledge within. Each embodied the virtues of one of the five houses. To gain entrance, you must prove yourself worthy by besting these protectors. Seek out the rune stones that represent the houses of Maldraxxus.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • SlaylinesMaldraxxus · Level 10-54

    Gaining entrance to the Sepulcher is no easy feat, <name>! Not only were guardians put in place, but an elaborate magical lock was created to seal the door. To open the way, the two obelisks which control the lock must be fed anima.
