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.

  • Summit of FateThe Hinterlands · Level 10-30

    You have to go to the summit now, <name>. Our warriors won't go past the final gates. They say it's still as a tomb; not a sound, not a breath, not a hint of motion. They think it's a trap, but based on what you've brought me, I'm worried it's something even more sinister.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Hunt the KeeperThe Hinterlands · Level 10-30

    Shadra the spider loa... the venom queen, a spirit of darkness and death! If there's been a sacrifice, they're trying to bring her forth as a last-ditch effort. If the Vilebranch are performing rituals, I'm not going to let them finish. Check the cave behind the altar at the top of Jintha'Alor.
