If you're wondering why you can't turn in the quest even though the icon to do so appears on your map, you actually have to:
- follow the blue smoke line down and to your left, then into the post office;
- talk to the friendly NPC and fight the mobs
Then you can turn in the quest.

Where to go

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Lost Lines of DefenseK'aresh · Level 80

    This is not a good day! Not at all. My whole shipment of barrier projectors was ransacked! Most of them are gone, and it seems whatever the culprits didn't take, they destroyed. These barrier projectors are essential for securing the wild places on K'aresh, and even the city of Tazavesh.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Barriers to EntryK'aresh · Level 80

    Those barrier projectors we recovered? We need them now. Place them at key points to reinforce the city shield and block more portals from forming. Move swiftly, <name>. This may be our only chance to stop the Shadowguard from flooding in.
