Description

Listen, {name}. I don't have a lot of time to talk here. These guys are excavating relics from this site and taking pieces of ancient technology that we need! I need you to check their crates for pieces of an ancient activation device. The officers should have the codes you'll need to open them. Hurry! We can't let them load this stuff into their planes!

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.

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • I've Got This GuyUldum · Level 30-35

    Good timing, <name>. Seems I'm not the only one interested in these obelisks, and these fellas aren't inclined to compare notes... I think I can handle this guy. Maybe you could take care of a few of his friends before they make their way over here?

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • IgnitionUldum · Level 30-35

    This guy just won't go down! You're doin' great, kid. Only one thing left to do. According to my research, there should be a titan statue down below. Use the device to activate it, then break it down. If my theory is correct, that statue holds the key to reactivating this obelisk.
