This world quest is for the COPPER version of the Sabertron

The colored Sabertron rares are required for the achievement Sabertron Assemble, the world quests are always on the same spot and each color is tied to a different quest id, you will spend a lot of time waiting to get the all the different world quests to spawn.

It is always located on the same spot in Stormsong Valley inside a cave at 34.2 32.4. To get the sabertron to spawn you must get into combat with [npc=139334] and be mindful of not killing him before he activates the sabertron, sometimes he just doesn't seem to do it regardless of how much health you take from him, his respawn time is 5 minutes.

The red sabertron is not a world quest and can easily be spawned at any time. The remaining four colors are tied to different world quests that share the same name. In order to help those looking for particular colors here are the colors and quest they are tied to:


  • Red Sabertron is the default choice, no world quest necessary;

  • Orange Sabertron is from the world quest Sabertron (id 51978)

  • Copper Sabertron is from the world quest Sabertron (id 51974)

  • Yellow Sabertron is from the world quest Sabertron (id 51977)

  • Green Sabertron is from the world quest Sabertron (id 51976)

I have taken this weak aura from DenL and modified it as suggested by him using the quest IDs above and the uiMapID 942 taken from this table at wowpedia, although it seems the uiMapID 1198 works just the same. I haven't had the chance to test the aura with a world quest up yet so I am not sure which one of the IDs will work, or if both will.

I have crossposted this into each of the world quests and also on the achievement page to help those looking for this information.

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.
