The terrible, terrible damage mentioned by Williden is a reference to a Starcraft II demonstration match, where Dustin Browder, Starcraft II game designer, is a narrator. It is also the god mode cheat in Starcraft II.

Description

Welcome. I'm Williden Marshal, and my sister and I run this expedition of explorers and scientists. You have a moment? I don't like the look of those elementals on that volcano, {class}. We have too much equipment, too many notes... one crazed elemental could streak its way through our camp and do terrible, terrible damage. Show them that their new neighbors aren't to be trifled with. And bring back the ash that they leave behind... we might as well do a little science while we're at it.

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.

  • Crystals of PowerUn'Goro Crater · Level 15-30

    I'm sure you've noticed 'em, <name>. They're everywhere! What am I talking about? Why, the crystals, of course! The crystals... They're all over the crater. Most people ignore them, but I have a strange feeling that they hold power within them.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Finding the SourceUn'Goro Crater · Level 15-30

    I created a thermometer to take readings of the temperatures at the volcano, and I'd like to find the hottest lava flows. It gives the measurements in degrees Kraklenheit! Here, take it, and take readings of the temperatures at the ridge whenever you see a hot spot!
