The items you are looking for have the appearance of tiny thorium veins and are scattered throughout Kolramas, the large fallen necropolis that is southeast of Captain Rupert. Keep an eye out for tealish items on the floor - they can be very easy to miss due to their size.

Description

We know that Kolramas, the crashed necropolis to the southeast, was carrying a large amount of an ore known as saronite when the trolls shot it down. My scouts tell me that much of the saronite is strewn about within the innards of that thing. Eitrigg and his friends back at The Argent Stand want a bunch of the stuff so that they can study it. I want you to head in there and see if you can collect enough for them.

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.

  • A Tangled SkeinZul'Drak · Level 20-30

    There! One tangled skein thrower ready and waiting for you to take those plague sprayers down. You just aim and let loose. The webbing should foul up their hover spells long enough to cause them to crash to the ground just like Kolramas. Kind of poetic. I like that!

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Lab WorkZul'Drak · Level 20-30

    I assume by your interruption that you wish to be numbered among those I am considering for apprenticeship. A worthy aspiration... Should I someday choose to accept your petition, I must be confident that you can find your way around my laboratory.
