For those who don't want to watch a youtube video - when you have the whelplings, you get a vehicle style button above your action bars to click and point at the pillars. Took me a second to see the whelpling button

Description

Much better. I knew I could count on you, my friend. Allow me to return the favor. I know how you can destroy the large mana collector pylons. We shall save your dragon yet! The pylons only work against ground targets, yet they're defenseless from above. Send your whelplings at them, my friend. The whelplings can fly where we cannot. Trust me.

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.

  • Leyline AbuseAzsuna · Level 10-45

    These monsters are pulling mana directly out of the ground. This explains why not even my mana pools can dull my pain. I worry about my brood. Without the power of the ley lines, we are nothing. At this rate, I may not even be able to help you with your Tidestone.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • The Nightborne PrinceAzsuna · Level 10-45

    <Senegos is focused.> I sense it now. In the ruined building, to the east. One of these cretins must have tapped deep into the ley line. I suspect he will be heavily defended, <name>. Once again, the well-being of my brood is in your hands.
