Description

We were hauling batteries to the excavation site and I crashed my freakin' car! My sister didn't even look back. I took the turn a little fast, so what? It happens! Point is, the batteries went flying everywhere and I'm in no condition to lift them out. So what do you say? Wanna help me out?

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.

Best Deals AnywhereSpires of Arak · Level 30-40
Commander, two goblin smugglers - Mixxy and Trixxy Weldblast - came through here recently and went off towards the bog to the east. They had drilling equipment but weren't carrying any weapons, sir.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

Back on TrackSpires of Arak · Level 30-40
You're a lifesaver, I'll tell you what. Say, how about you go on ahead to the excavation site and let my sister know I'm on my way. I'll get everything neat and tidy and go get a new cart to lug these over.
