As you approach, make sure to keep an eye out for the [npc=82951] fleeing futilely from [npc=82933]'s giant laser, yelling "Run for your lives! It's too strong!" :p
edit: links
I hated killing this mob since he was giving Shattered Hand a run for their money.

Outpost Building Assembly Notes, 16g 98s, 5,450 XPDescription
The laser should be good to go once we get it set up, there's just one more thing I need. There's a spore walker that hunts on the delta just southeast from here. It has an apparatus on its face that can fire a powerful laser - way more powerful than what we have hooked up. I want it. We'll be mining faster than you can imagine once we get that bad boy hooked up!

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.
- I See Dead Arakkoa
I've got a strange problem and I'm hoping you might be able to help. I don't know who else could help, to be honest. My workers keep saying they're seeing the ghost of the arakkoa that used to head up this place.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Safety Measures
The batteries I lost in the bog have really ticked off the wild creatures. It's going to be impossible to remove them without fighting through who knows what. If you're up for it, why don't you 'take care' of any critters you come across?
