Description

Looks like we made it in unnoticed. Skaggit's crew can set up shop on that beach, but we gotta make sure it's safe for 'em to land first. Let's do a quick flyover to scout out how we're going to crack this place wide open. That town up on the hill looks promising...

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.

  • To Mechagon!Mechagon · Level 10-60

    Whatever's waiting for us on the shores of Mechagon, we're going to be ready for it with this crew. I don't hold any misconceptions about how that crazy king is going to welcome us. Guns blazin', I'm sure. So we're going in quietly on this submarine. Low profile'll keep us all safe.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • We Come in Peace... and ProfitMechagon · Level 10-60

    King Mechagon won't be happy we're on his island. But a cruel king like that is gonna have enemies. You and I know that better than most, yeah? While Skaggit and the crew get our foothold dug in here, you and I are gonna find some potential allies to shield us from King Mechagon's wrath.
