Description
Couldn't help overhearing. Not to brag, but goblins are specialists in the field of rampaging robots. If that golem's as unstable as Danagh says, it'll be leaking all sorts of energy. Take this, run a few scans, and you'll find it. Oh, and be careful. Animals tend to go a little cuckoo when you power this thing on. No charge--a murderous golem's bad for business. And I kinda feel bad making you work just to find a dead guy.
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.
- Duty of Care
The golem is unstable. I doubt it can travel far. We will track it, but haste failed me once already. Arbauch showed true devotion to the machines--we will follow his example. Repairs must come first. Machine systems are delicate. We must activate the backup before the failure can cascade.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Decommissioning Darkness
Decommissioning a machine is a rare necessity. It must be done with care and regret. We put much of ourselves into our work. To destroy it is to destroy a part of ourselves. In doing so, we admit our failure to protect the Titans' work. But where stone rebels against stone, we must stand firm.
