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.

  • Shared GoalsUldum · Level 50

    The decree you found made mention of a plan to defeat the Old Gods. I know that the Amathet aren't likely to work with us toward that goal, but if they have a plan tae take out N'Zoth, it's worthwhile for us tae look at it. The decree mentions the Engine of Ascension.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • A World Worth SavingUldum · Level 50

    We could not stand against them. Their warriors... wreathed in the sun's flames... They want the forge... to end all... Go... I will... endure...
