don't know if anybody else couldn't find the coordinates but basically at the camp where you get the quest turn around and look on the otherside of the road, then run into the wood a little. it will look like there's another camp, the thing your looking for is in there

What to do

StorylineNetherstorm, step 83 of 103
Rewards10g 50s, 2,050 XP

Description

Wherever the Consortium establishes a presence, we bring our eco-dome technology. The fields allow us to work in a controlled and life-sustaining atmosphere since we often find ourselves in hostile environments. Netherstorm's volatile conditions and creatures have begun to destroy the equipment that sustains our domes, especially the generator east of here. I've started a diagnostic there in hopes of understanding what can be done to combat the damage. Would you collect the results and bring them to me?

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.

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Capturing the KeystoneNetherstorm · Level 25-30

    It doesn't surprise me that Kael'thas has put the key to this ward in the hands of someone like Commander Sarannis. Prince Kael'thas is a great many things, but he is no simpleton. In order to break this curse once and for all, you must enter Tempest Keep and claim the keystone.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Deal With the SaboteursNetherstorm · Level 25-30

    In searching the area for clues about the damage to our equipment, I've seen pieces of the shield generators at the bottom of the small lake to the north. I'm not sure why the crocolisks have taken an interest in the equipment, but we have to put a stop to this problem.
