Objective by objective
- Collect Nixx's Signed Pledge item #11270
The quest's own structured objectives. How many of each you need is set by the game when you accept it, so it is not stored here – the sentence above is the quest's own wording.
The quest giver's words
Goblin engineering is about practical uses for high profit and higher explosive power! Our schemata allow us to make powerful bombs and mighty weaponry; the manual you read covered this.
The manual also covered our ages old oath of secrecy on our schemata. Once you become a goblin engineer, that's that. There is no access to gnome engineering at all.
If you still want to become a goblin engineer, sign this document pledging life-long secrecy and speak with me again. Think about it carefully, <name>.
Progress
If you've signed the document and are ready to hand it to me, then that is that. You've been told that this is a one way trip. If you're ready, then hop on board!
Completion
Welcome aboard, Goblin Engineer <name>! You soon will have access to the most powerful engineering schemata anywhere on Azeroth.
Now that you have committed yourself to the pursuit of this knowledge, it is time to examine your goblin-oriented engineering work. From there, we'll help you build a plan to maximize your goblin engineering talents!

What players recorded
Everything below this line is a different kind of knowledge from everything above it. Above: what the quest is, the same on every realm. Below: what actually happened when people played it, uploaded by them, with the number of runs printed against every figure. It is an observation, not a fact about the quest.
Nobody has completed this quest with telemetry on yet, so there is no timing. Everything below is drawn straight from the 0 recorded attempts the hub has.
How precise this guide is
Early guide Built from 0 runs by 0 players – low confidence. Every upload of this quest sharpens it: the hotspots tighten, the order and the timings settle, and the parts below unlock as the sample grows.
- Where to go – pick-up, objectives and hand-in needs one recorded run not yet
- Typical time and objective order – median and middle half needs 3 completed runs (now 0) not yet
- Tips – what most players do needs 5 runs (now 0) not yet
- Where players die – death hotspots on the map needs 5 characters from at least 2 different people (now 0 from 0) not yet

The route
An early route: drawn from the first runs and sharper with every upload. Pick-up, hand-in and the objective hotspots are where the quest is, so they are shown from the first run.
Map coordinates are the addon's own 0–1 zone coordinates (Tanaris), origin top-left, x to the right and y downward. Drag the zone map to pan, ctrl/⌘ + scroll or the buttons to zoom; the grid lines are tenths of the zone.
