Description

With all these cinderbrew kegs here, this meadery would burn hotter than the Forgegrounds if they were all ignited. I surmise that's why Wenbrandt's kegs are made out of stout and strong ironwood--they do not break or catch fire easily. Luckily, we can start a reaction from the inside if we lead fuses into each of them. Those ropes the workers left around should work in a pinch.

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.

  • To the MeaderyIsle of Dorn · Level 70-73

    Your archer friend is right. We must eliminate Zirix and his forces if the Coreway is to remain safe. Let us head to the Cinderbrew Meadery at once.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Evacuation AreaIsle of Dorn · Level 70-73

    Look, you can blow up my life's work if it is our only choice, but I will not put my workers in danger. This was the path we all chose, but I won't have them sacrifice themselves to fire or nerubians for it. Tell them that I said they need to get out of here immediately.
