The quest giver's words
Let me be the first to welcome you aboard, Junior Technician 3rd Grade <name>!
We're building my masterpiece out here - the X-52 Nether-Rocket!
But first we need to get all of the parts and fuel for it. That's where you come in.
To start, I need crystals - LOTS of crystals - for the rocket's Etherlithium Engine Matrix. The draenei had crystals coming out of their ears!
So head north to the Ruins of Enkaat and get them for me! Nevermind all of the draenei ghosts.
Progress
Does it look like the X-52 Nether-Rocket is ready for liftoff? Am I cruising the Twisting Nether in the comfort of my command chair? Exploiting strange new worlds? Seeking out new technology and business opportunities? Boldly going where no goblin has gone before?
No!
So, I hope you have those crystals that I sent you after.
Completion
Gah! Those look rough. Maybe we can use them in the tertiary engine manifold chamber?
Still, a good job Junior Technician 3rd Grade! You'll make 2nd Grade in no time.
Category: Netherstorm.
What you need

By character level
Level Experience Share 67–73 12,000 100% 74 9,600 80% 75 7,200 60% 76 4,800 40% 77 2,400 20% 78–89 1,200 10% 90 none 72s more money The game pays the full figure up to five levels above the quest, then 20 % less for each level more, down to a tenth, and none at the level cap. A bonus of your own (a guild perk, a holiday) comes on top.
The listed figures and the players here disagree, so both are shown rather than one picked.
- Experience: players were paid 10% more than the 12,000 listed. An experience bonus (heirlooms, a guild perk) pays more; a character well above the quest's level earns less.

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 2 recorded attempts the hub has.
How precise this guide is
Early guide Built from 2 runs by 1 player – 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 available
- 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 2) not yet
- Where players die – death hotspots on the map needs 5 characters from at least 2 different people (now 1 from 1) not yet

Based on 0 completed runs. Computed on this page; the analyser has not published this quest 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 (Netherstorm), 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.
