What to do

StorylinePinchwhistle Gearworks, step 7 of 14

Description

Uncle Krixel's a tough one but he won't be going anywhere on foot with his leg broken. He has a flying machine he brought from Azeroth that can fly us out of here. Problem is, the engine's busted. I'll need some parts to fix the thing. My car's wasted but those broken shredders just outside of town should have what we need. We don't have time to break them down by hand so just use this rocket launcher and blow 'em apart. Anything that survives the blast should be strong enough to use on the engine.

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.

  • Skimming Off the TopSpires of Arak · Level 30-40

    That flying machine is our ticket out of here but its fuel tank is bone dry! We're right next to the oil fields but with the infected out there we don't have time to run a line up here so we need to improvise.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • SporicideSpires of Arak · Level 30-40

    It's revolting, absolutely disgusting, infuriating even! I'm talking about seeing those spore creatures walking around Pinchwhistle Point. While I'm working on the machine here how about you go out and kill off some of those spore creatures?
