Description

My father is waiting for us to the east. Before we head out though, we need to gather some more supplies. This time, you'll be taking it from a warlock by the name of Gorzeeki Wildeyes. You'll probably find him to the northwest, near the Altar of Storms. Tell him he's going to help us out. We need the sand, the cider, and the orb. He'll know what it means.

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.

  • Mud HunterBurning Steppes · Level 15-30

    Hope you're not afraid of getting dirty. Judging by the looks of you, that won't be a problem. To the north, at the lava's edge, you'll find piles of dark mud. I need it. It'd be best if you didn't ask questions, and focused your efforts on following orders, <name>.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Warlocks Have the Neatest StuffBurning Steppes · Level 15-30

    Keeshan said he needs supplies? I've got plenty of supplies! Problem is, those warlocks have kicked me out of my home, and they're not letting me back in. <Gorzeeki sizes you up.> You might be able to get in, though.
