What To Do

Complete the quest objective shown in your tracker in Shadowmoon Valley, then return to the turn-in NPC.

Quest Text

We cannot permit the Legion to carry out its plan to destroy Wildhammer Stronghold on their march to the Black Temple. There's only one way to stop them, {name}. You must create an explosive large enough to destroy the Legion's entire stockpile of infernals at the hold. The Fetid Pool near Legion Hold holds an old fel reaver power core you could use as the base of your device. Search the other wreckage near the fel reaver for armor plating we might be able to make a casing from.

Archive context

Shadowmoon Valley belongs to the Warlords of Draenor archive. Start with its campaign track if this record is unavailable or the next step is missing.

Stuck?

Check the exact quest giver and turn-in records above first. Use this page's community comments for phase changes, cave entrances, spawn timing, and corrections from the live game.

Group size

No group size is listed by Blizzard, so this is usually soloable unless the objective text says otherwise.

Use the evidence

Pin the quest in-game, enable objective outlines, then use the exact-title references in the archive for NPC or object coordinates. Add a correction below if the live game differs from this record.

Field notes

Objectives and map pin

Blizzard's public API publishes a quest's text and rewards but not its objectives, its own level, whether it can be shared, or any map coordinate. Nobody has synced quest 10572 yet, so there is nothing to show here rather than a guess. Running the WowGodSync addon while you play contributes those fields for everyone.

Have I done this?

Check it in game

Quest completion is stored per character on Blizzard's side and is not in the public API, so paste this in your chat box and it prints true or false for “Setting Up the Bomb” on the character you are logged into.

Completion check
/run print(C_QuestLog.IsQuestFlaggedCompleted(10572))
Warband-wide check (11.0+)
/run print(C_QuestLog.IsQuestFlaggedCompletedOnAccount(10572))

A false also comes back for a quest id the client does not know, so it means “not recorded as complete” rather than proof the quest exists on your account.
