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.

  • Move the MountainTwilight Highlands · Level 30-35

    If the Twilight Gate is to fall, we must get Skullcrusher the Mountain out of there! Before they left, I saw to it that your Kor'kron assassins took some explosives hidden in a Twilight's Hammer crate. By now, they will have planted them on the steps leading up to the upper portion of the Citadel.

After this quest

  • Four Heads are Better than NoneTwilight Highlands · Level 30-35

    Now while the attack upon the Twilight Gate is launched, there is one last loose end to tie up: Za'brox and Beeble'phod, the disciples of Cho'gall. Intelligence has placed them within the Den of the Disciples, a small ogre cave at the southwest corner of the Twilight Gate.
