Ace: I don't know about you, but if he was going out with my ex, I'd do something about it.
Quest Objective: Slay Chip
This made me chuckle.You know, 'cause he was obviously implying that you should brutally murder him.
He totally got a broken heart icon above his head and asked how I could do this to him. When my *male* goblin killed him. And people say Blizzard doesn't allow players that kind of flexibility.

Description
Dude! You're never going to guess who's out on the oil platform to the north. <Ace shakes head in disbelief.> Chip's out there, and he's working for the Trade Prince. That traitor's now working for the other team. But worse, I heard he's got something goin' on with Candy Cane! I don't know about you, but if he was shmoozin' up to my former definitely-real girlfriend, I'd do something about 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.
- The Fastest Way to His Heart
Oh, man! You're never going to guess who's out on the oil platform to the north. <Izzy shakes her head sadly at you.> Chip's out there, and he's working for the Trade Prince. That cold-hearted snake dropped you like a bad habit and now he's working for the other team.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Release the Valves
We have to stop Trade Prince Gallywix's oil supply and bring his machines to a grinding halt. We're going to need you to go out to the KTC Oil Platform and release the valves to overload the coolant system. After you do that, head to the platform control panel on the platform and set it to blow.
