Description

We're ready to set up the laser, but we're going to need more firepower to cut through this stuff.

The Ebon Hunter stalks the delta just southeast from here. It has an apparatus on its face that can fire a laser way stronger than what we have hooked up.

We need that.

You should go get it while we set up the laser.

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.

  • I See Dead ArakkoaSpires of Arak · Level 30-40

    Say, while you're here would you mind helping me out with a major problem? The workers keep saying that they're seeing the ghost of the head arakkoa that used to be here. I don't believe it for a second but could you take my Ghostogrifier 12000 to her body and check?

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Safety MeasuresSpires of Arak · Level 30-40

    As it turns out, the resonance frequency of the batteries has really upset the local wildlife. I... I think one of the boars looked at me and licked its lips just a moment ago. I'll make it worth your time if you just... get rid of anything you come across down there.
