Requirements

ClassDemon Hunter

Read from the Blizzard quest API.

Description

Yes, those devastators must be silenced, but there's also a great deal more to be done. Despite the odds, we're counting on you. The Brood Queen's primary leaders are in control of the volcano. They must be killed. We must smash the Legion and do anything else necessary to achieve absolute victory.

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.

Coordinates

Turn-inMardum, the Shattered Abyss 60.5, 44.8/way #672 60.5 44.8
Objective area (centre of the marked area)Mardum, the Shattered Abyss 65.0, 30.0/way #672 65.0 30.0

Objective areaMardum, the Shattered Abyss 60.6, 44.9/way #672 60.6 44.9

Map coordinates of the pins above. An area the client draws as a shape is given by the centre of its points.

Getting there

From the turn-in, the objective areas lie:

Objective areaabout 400 yards north-east
Objective areaabout 670 yards east
Objective areaabout 450 yards south-east

Straight-line distances in yards between the quest’s own map markers (QuestPOI) and the client’s flight-point positions (TaxiNodes); flight paths and terrain are not modelled.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

Stop the BombardmentLevel 8-45
Jace's wards are not going to hold out much longer. We need someone to go out there and make sure those Legion devastators are destroyed. <Kayn pointedly looks at you with his spectrally-enhanced vision.>

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

Into the Foul CrecheLevel 8-45
One of the demons that I interrogated revealed a particularly juicy bit of information. Apparently, there's an imp mother in the volcano that scribes Legion secrets. Kor'vas has gone out to find that demon and bring those secrets back for us.
