Objective by objective
- Kill or interact with Gnomebot Pounder NPC #35203
- Kill or interact with Gnome Engineer NPC #35334
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
Now Mr. D just needs an angel to help him navigate. Will you be that angel, <mister/miss>? With you helping we can go out into the crag and kill bunches and bunches of Alliance! Waddya say? Come on, <mister/miss>! PRETTY PLEASE WITH SUGAR ON TOP?
If we kill enough Alliance Mr. Krom'gar will buy us all ice cream!
Completion
< Overlord Krom'gar coughs.>
I am - perhaps for the first time in my life - at a loss for words.
I am really not sure where Clarissa even came from...

By character level
Level Experience Share 24–32 3,300 100% 33 2,650 80% 34 2,000 60% 35 1,300 40% 36 650 20% 37–89 330 10% 90 none 19s 80c 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 3,300 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.
This guide rests on 2 completed runs. That is enough to show where people went and not enough to trust the timings – treat them as one player's evening.
How precise this guide is
Early guide Built from 2 runs by 2 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 available
- Typical time and objective order – median and middle half needs 3 completed runs (now 2) 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 2 from 2) not yet
Timings
Based on 2 completed runs. Published by the analyser – low confidence.
Same 2 runs; mean 7 min 51 s.
Counting every recorded attempt, finished or not.
4 tracked kills, typically 3,630 XP, done around level 27.
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 (Stonetalon Mountains), 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.
