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.

  • Retaliation CoordinationLevel 50

    Master Shaw deployed a number of Alliance spies near a base the Horde have made in Stormsong Valley. When our spies stopped checking in, he took Kelsey Steelspark and went to investigate. Now Master Shaw is the one who hasn't checked in.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Reassembly RequiredLevel 50

    Master Shaw wanted me to rebuild the listening posts the Horde destroyed when they started to clear the area in preparation for whatever they are planning. I managed to salvage most of the parts for one, but I'm missing a few.

The storyline at a glance

The Gathering Storm has 9 steps, from Spy Versus Spy to A Gathering of Foes.
