This is one of the quests in a chain that will grant at it's conclusion an [item=116394] and the toy [item=119001]. This quest is only available if you have built the Brewery (Hearthfire Tavern).

In addition, via this quest line you will get a follower for your garrison - [follower=453.2] (H)/[follower=453.1] (A). This follower is also available from [npc=88635] (H)/[npc=88633] (A) in your garrison for 5000g if you have built a Smuggler's Den and do not intend to change it.

The [item=119001] can only be obtained if you have built the Hearthfire Tavern (Brewery) instead of the Smuggler's Den as your Spires of Arak Outpost. If you have already selected the Smuggler's Den, you must pay 5000g to switch outposts (You can get 1000g back at later, as I've noted at the end of this comment). This can be done by speaking to [npc=81920] (H)/[npc=81929] (A), who will give you the option to pay the fee to switch.

After building the Brewery Outpost, you must complete the following quest line:

  16. No Time to Waste

After this quest line has been completed, you can obtain the quest Not In Your Army (H)/Cleaning House (A), which will grant the [item=119001] toy as a reward.

NOTE: Completing No Time to Waste (H)/No Time to Waste (A) grants [item=116394] as a reward. This can be used to purchase blueprints from [npc=85840] (Warspear)/[npc=85849] (Stormshield). You can get blueprints you don't already have instead of purchasing them with gold.
However, if you already have all the blueprints, purchase any of the following blueprints to vendor for 1000g:


  • [item=116431] (H)

  • [item=107694] (A)

  • [item=109254]

  • [item=111968]

  • [item=111980]

  • [item=111986]

Description

We're in luck, commander. The antidote is relatively easy tae make. I've made a small amount with what I had on me. You should take it tae Kolrigg before it's too late. It'll keep him alive long enough for me tae make more.

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.

  • We Have Him NowSpires of Arak · Level 30-40

    We have Gardul right cornered, commander. Ye have a much better chance against him than me. Take him out, grab the formula from his corpse, and grab as many barrels o' poison as ye can carry. I'll stay here and make sure nae reinforcements come to Gardul's aid.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Peace OfferingSpires of Arak · Level 30-40

    We could really use an ally to trade with, commander. There's an arakkoa outcast living in the middle of a ravager nest northeast of here... do you think he might ally with us? He must have some sort of secret to keeping those ravagers at bay. I have one last crate of my Northshire Port.
