What to do
Description
This is going to take a while, but I'm sure we'll beat them back. You're more good to Thousand Needles elsewhere. We have reports that the gnomes and goblins out on the flooded salt flats somehow survived on a giant barge! Rendow is on the dock. She'll get you a boat to go there. Mind helping us out a little on your way to her?
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.
