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.

  • Evacuation OrdersValley of the Four Winds · Level 15-35

  • Unyielding Fists: Trial of BambooValley of the Four Winds · Level 15-35
