Objective by objective
- Kill or interact with Westguard Cannon Credit Trigger East NPC #23957
- Kill or interact with Westguard Cannon Credit Trigger West NPC #23972
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
We should be able to kill our way back to our guns. Unfortunately, visibility is less than desirable so you will have to mark our targets from the ground.
Take these smoke flares with you and use them to mark the locations of the cannons along the northern wall in the Derelict Strand, west of here, where the Alliance are holding out.
Let Lyana know as soon as the way is clear for the ground troops. We can take care of ourselves over here.
Progress
The cannons, <name>. Is someone going to take care of them?
Completion
Excellent. I will signal our ground troops to make their move.

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 (Howling Fjord), 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.
