Even though I've maxed out the console with 7 Uncontaminated Void Samples, this quest is still available and rewards another one (also a bit of gold). Might as well do it if you are planning on completing WQs in Voidstorm I guess.

be better if it gave 1k rep once maxed out with samples
its only 6 items, and the last one is a mount, not a real value in resetting for a zone buff. Just finish it.

What to do
Description
No rest for the researchers, as they say. As much as I would love to go traipsing around this blasted voidscape, I need to remain at this post. But you! You can be our eyes and ears in the abyss. Go and explore the Voidstorm, maybe we can find some additional samples to feed into the console.
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.
Objective areaIn-game waypoint: /way #2405 52.6 72.9
Coordinates
- Objective areaVoidstorm 52.6, 72.9
/way #2405 52.6 72.9
Map coordinates of the pins above. An area the client draws as a shape is given by the centre of its points.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the quest's prerequisites.
- Researching the Storm
The urgent nature of our mission to these lands should not preclude us from embarking on new and meaningful research. Long have my people studied the void, and any opportunity to break new ground must be seized. Our scouts have been finding peculiar void manifestations throughout Voidstorm.
