Description

What "riches" are they mining out of the earth? Could this deep digging be related to my visions? Surely these goblins would not find value in something like Black Blood. We must get a closer look. Together we will gain insight into their operation.

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.

  • Hostile Work EnvironmentThe Ringing Deeps · Level 80

    Bigger and more dangerous than Opportunity Point? These south mines sound real bad, even if ya have a high tolerance for bad working conditions. But what are they mining? Something here is worth big money. We'll need to check it out. I'll head past the big Darkfuse camp with Renzik, stealth mode.
