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.

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • They Took Our GnomesAshenvale · Level 10-30

    The gnome explosives squad we requested from Tinker Town arrived last week. Just in time to face an assault by the Horde. We lost a lot of soldiers that day. Most of the gnome team was taken as well. Now we're neck deep in Horde, Silverwind Refuge has been lost and we're down a dozen gnomes.

After this quest

    So these night elves send out a desperate call for help to us, goes something like this: <Gnombus changes the pitch of his voice to sound like a woman.> "Please come help us! The big, mean Horde has goblins! Oh, we can't handle goblins!
