Is this quest time gated? I have been to all quest givers and none have this in Val.
Haven't sighted it yet. Guess we'll see it sometime next Val rotation...

What to do
Description
The domanaar are more entrenched here than we thought and these storms refuse to relent even for a moment. We've finally figured out how to hijack their portal network for short range traversal thanks to your efforts setting up the rift slippers. Now we just need help setting up our portal bridges. Here are four strategic locations, including this outpost, for you to set up the portal bridges. Once active, you'll be able to more swiftly respond to threats as they arise. Time to get to work.
