Description

We've got trouble down in the Kaja'mine again, boss. The tunneling worms have returned and they're literally eating away at the Kajaro Trading Company's profits! Kaja'mite mining is down, which is negatively impacting our production of Kaja'Cola! I tried calling the exterminator, but he's fled with the last payment we made to him. Do you think you could head into the three mines and take care of it? I'd help but I still haven't attended the cartel-mandated fighter training seminar.

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.

  • Taking Care of BusinessKezan · Level 1-20

    With all of the troubles down in the Kaja'mine, Foreman Dampwick's been going crazy trying to find you. He said something about some 'defiant trolls'. The kaja'mite that our trolls are mining is critical ingredient in Kaja'Cola.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Good Help is Hard to FindKezan · Level 1-20

    I've failed! I tried to meet our Kaja'Cola quotas, but you know troll slaves these days. Good help is hard to find! I think your personal touch is called for. Go show 'em what happens to slackers. If all else fails, a shock from the battery on your Goblin All-In-1-Der Belt should do the trick.
