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.

  • The WitchqueenHighmountain · Level 10-45

    The time has come to assault High Crawliac, the Witchqueen. You should know that one does not become queen of the harpies through kindness. This creature has killed, betrayed, and tormented countless tauren, harpies, kobolds, and anything else she had to in order to secure her position as queen.

After this quest

Taken from a quest that requires this one.

  • Battle of Snowblind MesaHighmountain · Level 10-45

    Your timing is fortunate. Our forces at Snowblind Mesa report seeing the Underking above ground. What is more, he is lightly guarded, and has the hammer with him. Thanks to your efforts, we can meet them in battle. Meet us at Snowblind Mesa and let us take the fight to Dargrul together.
