What to do

Bring Pestlezugg's Un'Goro Report to Zilzibin Drumlore in Orgrimmar.

The quest giver's words

My recent findings and the knowledge we have gained here today needs to reach hands that can quite possibly do something with it. As resourceful as we are here in Gadgetzan, we can't do this alone.

Take my latest report back to Zilzibin Drumlore in Orgrimmar; he's still in his place on the upper part of the Drag, is he not? He's got friends who are high within the Horde; if we can get them involved in this <name>, then we just might make it out of this alive.

Progress

They are fools, <name>! They cannot even think to look around them for a greater threat; their irrational hatred of the Alliance will be our undoing. I do not know how much more proof I can give them of the silithid threat short of dropping them in one of the hives so they can see for themselves!

I'm sorry, you bring news for my attention?

Completion

While I genuinely appreciate this, I am not sure what good it will do us. The Horde ignores threats from any source other than the Alliance. While Thrall himself might take action were the facts presented to him, he is beset on all sides by conflicting advice. These fools would have us chase our own imaginary tails were they to think it might catch the Alliance unawares!

You have seen the threat yourself, <name>. We must remain committed to defeating the silithid!

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.
