Description

<Harrison grins.>

That's it, <name>. The pieces we need are hidden in these statues!

They look to be a bit off balance as is. Maybe just a little nudge...

I must say, your field work is coming along nicely. If you applied yourself, you could make a fine archaeologist one day.

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.

  • By the Light of the StarsUldum · Level 30-35

    Look at this, <name>. <Harrison holds up the dead scout's goggles.> I tightened the clamp in the middle and crimped the wires on the edges. They may not be the most comfortable, but they should hold together.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • After the FallUldum · Level 30-35

    Aww, that was nothin', really. Those statues were teetering as it was - just needed a little push is all. How about you go and sort through that rubble? I've got a feeling we're close to getting this all sorted out.
