This quest blocks the entire questchain for engineers in Legion. Nobody on my realm has the recipe for this food, and it is tied to those random cooking work orders. I have 770/800 skill thanks to gunpowder charges and i can't even get gunshoes. I wish they required some easier to get foods instead of one of the rare ones right off the bat.

EDIT: wow that was fast, Blizzard sneaky patched it 8h after my post, now instead of a Hearty Feast it requires 20 of Big Gamy Ribs, Wildfowl Egg, Highmountain Salmon and Black Barracuda

To craft Reaves Module: Snack Distribution Mode you have to obtain following materials:


  1. 80 x Felslate

  2. 20 x Big Gamy Ribs

  3. 20 x Wildfowl Egg

  4. 20 x Highmountain Salmon

  5. 20 x Black Barracuda


To craft Reaves Battery you have to obtain 5 x Felslate. Summon Reaves and then use Reaves Module: Snack Distribution Mode to switch it in to Snack Distribution Mode. Also, if you will eat, you'll get a buff.

After the quest you'll learn how to craft:

This quest was the biggest blocker for engineering on beta.
You had to craft Reaves Module: Snack Distribution Mode = 5x[item=133578] for this.
TheHearty Feast recipe is Nomi's Test Kitchen discovery.

Now you need to bring food and not feast


Here is my main [spell=201700] post.
You can find more info about the profession there.

Modular Modifications quest video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=59UDLPfrot0

So at this point you are probably thinking what is [spell=201593] and how it works.
First of all you dont need any skill. Everything can be done on 1 engineering skill.


  1. Craft Reaves Battery

  2. Use the battary and it will summon [npc=102950]

  3. Initially he is not usefull, but you can install several modules on him
    Here is compiled info about all the modules => [spell=201700]

    Similar to [spell=201562] but gives 225 versatility

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uvHn4Sl9LrA

    How modes work:

    • Craft some module once

    • Install it by speaking with [npc=102950]

    • Now you can activate it every time you summon the [npc=102950]

    • Can activate only one mode per Reaves Battery use
      But Reaves Battery has short CD








Full quest chain under the spoiler.
You can see how far you are in the storyline.

SpoilerRight now wowhead doesn't have all the quests. Engineering was so heavily gated, that no one really tested it on Beta. I'll update links after wowhead DB update

Description

Now that we got this baby running, let's give it some cool abilities. When I was fixing Reaves up, I installed a module port onto his motherboard. This will allow us to upload anything we want. I'll teach you one of my module designs and you install it on Reaves.

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.

  • Always the Last ThingLevel 10-45

    Well, I've worked out all the kinks. Added a few nuts and bolts, and fitted a new housing for the power core. Problem is, none of the batteries I have here seem to work. I think we're gonna have to fashion somethin' new together. I'm gonna need your help, <name>.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • It's Not Rocket ScienceLevel 10-45

    <name>, I need you to help me track down Flintlocke again. I sent him to Stormheim to gather some materials for an invention of mine and he hasn't been back for days. I'm not worried about Flintlocke, but I DO fear for Stormheim. See if you can find him!
