Our Chance to Strike

Our Chance to Strike is a quest for level 75-90 in Azj-Kahet. It is step 1 of 7 in the To Kill a Queen storyline, the opening step. It rewards 1,300 experience and money.

Description

<The child-like spider presents you with a sealed scroll. The sealed letter bears the markings of the Vizier.>

The balance of power is shifting in Azj-Kahet. The Queen grows more unstable by the day and I fear we must act before our opportunity to stop her slips from our grasp.

Meet me at the Royal Apothecary when you receive this letter.

This quest is offered by NPC Webster, who has two locations: one in Dornogal at /way 31.6 62.8/ and one in the City of Threads near the raid entrance at /way 39.52, 65.29.

Edit: If you cannot find Webster at these locations it's because you need to complete the first chapter of the max level campaign before the quest becomes available. Talk to Moira, look through the telescope, set up your faction's embassy, and he'll be available.

If you've completed the campaign on your main and are trying to get to the quest on your fresh level 80 alt, you have to do the following.

1) Skip the level up campaign with Brann
I believe you'll be given a quest to talk to Brann "Something on the Horizon" when you reach level 80.
/way 47.40 44.40
Something on the Horizon

After you've completed that Brann should have the chat options:
"I'd like to join the reinforcements.
<Skip the level-up campaign>"

then

"I'll join the reinforcements.
<Skip the level-up campaign and begin the max-level campaign.>"

2) He should then give you the quest "A Time to Come Together"
A Time to Come Together
(It showed as both a purple warband quest or as a normal quest for me on my alts)

It will have you do a chain of Campaign quests:
The Fleet Arrives
Embassies and Envoys
There's Alway Another Secret
Preparing for the Unknown
Urban Odyssey

3) Webster should now appear with this quest
/way 31.60 63
