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.

  • The ForsakenGhostlands · Level 1-30

    I know it seems strange, but the Forsaken are here to help. You should speak with their leader, High Executor Mavren. He's in the tower on the west side of town. And, <class>, when you're done talking with him return to me; I have something dire that needs to be dealt with immediately!

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Suncrown VillageGhostlands · Level 1-30

    We're surrounded here, <class>. The outlying villages have all been overrun by the Scourge! You must head northeast to Suncrown Village immediately and deal with the Nerubian Scourge menace. You can't miss them - they're spider-like creatures. There's no time to waste....
