Use this link. Make your puzzle a 5x5, and hit edit. On the website, LIGHT the ones that are not lit on your screen (backwards). Then hit solve.

The puzzle has 1's in all the places it wants you to click, I started from the top row and worked my way to the right on each row. Full credit goes to my guild member Tweety who watched me sit through this for an hour while I kept getting stuck.

A late realization, but if your UI is obscuring parts of the field, you can hide it, but still see the playing field of this puzzle, as it's not part of the UI. The default keybind for that is [inline-code]Ctrl+Z[/inline-code] (or [inline-code]Command+Z[/inline-code] on Apple) and to turn it off, hit the keybind again, or use [inline-code]Escape[/inline-code].

That is every comment on this page.

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.
