Description
Let me see the schematic... Yeah, yeah, alright. I can help you. I am going to need a few things to power my decoder. I need a way to channel electricity from the air around us. What better than to steal...I mean borrow some lightning rods from the sethrak that have been trying to steal my tech for weeks now! I'm sure you'll have to do some "convincing", but you seem like a pretty convincing {race}.
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.
- In the Dunes
This schematic you found is encrypted. My tools are no good on it, not without risking the integrity of the data. However, I do know a guy who can definitely crack this cookie: Mr. Dataguru Gryzix. If I remember correctly, he's been vacationing on a beach in Vol'dun since the war broke out.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Mechanical Liberation
Since you successfully interrupted my nap, my defenses are obviously lacking to say the least. That's because the sethrak, in addition to stealing my gadgets and gizmos, stole my mechs! Those morons don't even have the keys! <Gryzix laughs> Here, take my keys and get my mechs back.
