Best method I've discovered (unfortunately requires flying):


  1. Find a secluded spot on a ledge or somewhere high up where there is not a lot of ground to cover and no mobs.

  2. Stay on your flying mount.

  3. [item=178554] (don't forget to dismiss your other construct if you have one).

  4. Use [spell=314037].

  5. Immediately fly straight up for about 5 seconds.

  6. Fly straight back down using "x" (or your hotkey for "sit/move down").

The shiny should be right there within a few feet, if not directly underneath you. No need to dismount as [npc=161270] will reappear with about 3 seconds left on your cooldown.

Any of the high ramparts without NPCs work well, since they don't have ground clutter and they box Chordy into a smaller area.

Personally I fly to Charred Ramparts, go through Hole in the Wall, and follow the stairs up to: /way #1525 39.07 44.22 Luckydo Finding Spot

There's no NPCs here. Position yourself near the parasol on the ledge, use [spell=314037], loot the salvage, move back to the parasol, repeat. By using [spell=314037] near the ledge, you're shrinking the usable area for him and so you don't have to chase him as much.

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.

Taken from the quest's prerequisites.

  • Build-A-BominationLevel 60

    We need to get to work, every soul here needs a body. We have the parts to build a body for Chordy. Chordy is a great scavenger, rebuilding him could allow us to find more construct parts easier. Would you help me to rebuild him?
