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.

  • Invoking the SerpentThousand Needles · Level 15-30

    I am familiar with these artifacts. I believe that they were brought here by Magatha Grimtotem herself. But she's not amongst the Grimtotem on Darkcloud Pinnacle. She disappeared right after she arrived, and no one knows where she is now. Maybe we can find out.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Free the PridelingsThousand Needles · Level 15-30

    The trappers are rounding up all of the young wind riders. <name>, will you go out there and free the pridelings?
