The Warden's Pawn (Horde)

The Warden's Pawn is a Horde-only quest for level 15-30 in Badlands. It is step 32 of 53 in the Badlands storyline. The quest's turn-in marker is in Badlands at 50.2, 54.3. It rewards 3,100 experience.

Description

One of the few items of worth that we managed to loot from these ruins is this small jade statue.

We believe it to be a key of some sort, but we're unable to determine what it opens. As such, it is useless to me.

Perhaps you'll have some better luck with it.

Just move one of the side pieces - North, East, South or West, doesn't matter - into the middle.

Then keep rotating all the other pieces around in a "circle" - clockwise or counter-clockwise, doesn't matter - until they're in position. You're basically just rotating the lot of them halfway around the "circle".

Once they're rotated into position you can then move the first piece back out of the centre and it'll slot into its position & complete the puzzle.

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.

  • It's Not About History, It's About PowerBadlands · Level 15-30

    The Explorers' League may have a yeoman's knowledge of the actual act of digging. What they lack, however, is the good sense to USE the artifacts that they dig up. They stow their treasures in stagnant museums instead of using these items of power for their true purpose. The dwarves are fools.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • The Sentinel's PawnBadlands · Level 15-30

    We found this small red statue on the corpse of one of those Explorers' League archaeologists. Sadly, it wasn't us who killed him. The local wildlife had already taken care of that. The statue is well-crafted, but apparently bereft of magical power.
