TheWoWDBGood to know that Archimonde once considered violence, color matching, and obstacle courses to be suitable tests of intelligence.

I think Archimonde put the sass-level a bit too high on this robot.
Activate a Gatekeeper ...... and wait.

Description
It was a good thing we sought two sources of energy. Even with the conduits active, the construct has not stirred. It has likely been inactive a long while. Perhaps as long as Eredath has floated above Argus. What a long, lonely vigil it must have been. <Y'mera is silent for a moment as she peers at the construct.> Go ahead and jostle it a little. That combined with one last burst of magic ought to do the trick.
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.
- Invasive Species
We should seek out an alternate source of energy just in case I am wrong about the conduits. Luckily enough, I think I know where we can find one. The panthara native to Argus are solitary creatures, but it seems whatever magic the Wakeners possessed has drawn them here in great numbers.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Gatekeeper's Challenge: Tenacity
My master Archimonde was not known for his willingness to suffer indecision. He preferred to teach by rewarding frustration with more frustration-- punishment with more punishment. Absolute conviction was required to succeed under him.
