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.

  • Improvised AmmunitionTownlong Steppes · Level 25-35

    I've got another job for you. The dragon cannons we depend on to keep the thicker swathes of mantid back are running low on ammo. The camp's cannoneers developed an improvised explosive that's made from the globe seeds down the western ridge.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • In the Wrong HandsTownlong Steppes · Level 25-35

    Look... um... this is really embarrassing. I set down my sword for like ONE SECOND to gather some orbs, and a big sprite sprung out of nowhere, snatched it, and bounded off down the western gap. I can't go back to camp without it. Losing your weapon is a sure way to get kicked out of the Shado-Pan.
