The Snows of Northrend – In 20 steps

The Snows of Northrend

Introduction
This guide is an guide on how to complete “The Snows of Northrend” Achievement,
it lists all quests and explains how to do them, I have also tried to use the same color coding and formatting as Jame uses in his leveling guide because people find it’s easier to do it the way people are familiar with.

Okay then we are almost ready to start, just one last thing:
Credit to those who deserves it.
– Brune For helping me with spelling corrections and formating of the guide.
– Jame For making this guide possible at all;) and for the help.
– All who post feedback/comments here:)

“Note: Last bits of formatiing of headlines etc. will come within the next few days, I have set the guide back to finished so it should be readable”

And here we go!:)

The Guide

1. Where in the World is Hemet Nesingwary?
Archmage Pentarus in Krasus’ Landing in Dalaran offers this quest at level 76.
Once you’ve got the quest, and are ready to leave Dalaran, talk to Archmage Pentarus and he will teleport you to Scholar Basin close to a guy named Monte Muzzleshot (39,58), Deliver the quest to him and get the follow up [Welcome to Sholazar Basin].

2. Welcome to Sholazar Basin
Travel east to Nessingwary Base Camp and deliver the quest to Hemet Nesingwary(27,58)

3. The Camp
There are three quests in the camp, get all of them:
[It Could Be Anywhere!] From Chad.
[Venture Co. Misadventure] from Debaar.
[Need an Engine, Take an Engine] from Weslex Quickwrench to the east of the camp.

Note: The ring for [It Could Be Anywhere!] the ring can drop from ANY mob in the zone so just keep the quest and hand it in when you get it.

4.Need an Engine, Take an Engine
Travel back towards where the guy in the parachute was, in the same area you should see a crashed plane, and in front of it is the [Flying Machine Engine] (38,56) loot it and return to Weslex Quickwrench
turn in the quest and get the follow-up [Have a Part, Give a Part]

5. Have a Part, Give a Part
Go to Swindlegrin’s Dig(32,47) to the north/northeast, it’s right on the north side of The Suntouched Pillar.
Go around here and kill Venture Co. Ruffians and Excavators and pick up [Venture Co. Spare Parts] from the ground,while looking for Engineer Helice(35,47) standing in the middle of the digsite, she gives the quest [Engineering a Disaster]
If she’s not here it means someone else is escorting her, she’ll probably be back in a few minutes. Take her quest and escort her to safety, after that go back to the digsite and do what you need to complete the two quests, then return to the Nesingwary Base Camp.
