[90] What's Going On (Heroic)
Category: Unknown
To Start: See below.

The two adventurer quests from the Velious Transportation Event share this name. One takes place at the Great Divide Dragon Ring and the other at the Eastern Wastes Wizard Spires.

  • Dragon Ring - In Great Divide at -5, -344, 40
  • Wizard Spires - In Eastern Wastes at -934, -334, 2375

Gninja shared some more insight on how this event will play out:

The event has three stages. Stage 1: tokens spawn at fairly slow rate and low end heroic mobs spawn during the attacks. Stage 2: number of tokens spawning doubles and high end heroic encounters spawn during the attacks. Stage 3: Final epic encounter attacks and tokens again double. Once the epic encounter is defeated the event is considered complete but the tokens continue to spawn around the areas at stage 3 rate.

If you're not getting quest credit for the battle quests, not engaging in the named encounter is likely the issue:

The quest will only update if you actively engage the final named at the end of the event waves. That named is what stops the NPCs from keeping spawning. One thing I was seeing people do was standing near the spawn points where the creatures spawn and engaing and killing them very quickly this might leave some not getting update as they will not have an opportunity to get on the hate list.

Dragon Ring

This quest will automatically be offered when you approach the dragon ring in the Great Divide. If you decline or want to pick it up again after completing it speak to Baradin Frostbane, who wanders around the ring.

Once the quest event starts waves of heroic Rime will attack the dragon ring. The objective is to keep as many construction workers as you can alive during the attacks. The attack should end with a named Rime officer accompanied by several other Rime.

If no one is present or those who are attempting the quest fail, all of the construction workers will be slain and the Rime will overrun the dragon ring for about 30 minutes. The revive spot for the ring is in a safe spot behind it but the zone griffon, progress crystal, errand quest and reward merchant will all be within aggro range.

Moving too far away from the dragon ring will cause this quest to drop out of your journal.

Wizard Spire

This quest will automatically be offered when you approach the wizard spires in Eastern Wastes. If you decline or want to pick it up again after completing it speak to Researcher Kirat at -924, -333, 2338 .

Once the quest event starts waves of heroic Ry'Gorr will attack the spires. The objective is to keep as many researchers as you can alive during the attacks. The attack should end with Warglord Gerituk accompanied by several Ry'Gorr Lackies.

If no one is present or those who are attempting the quest fail, all of the researchers will be slain and the orcs will overrun the wizard spires for about 30 minutes. The revive spot for the spires should be in a safe spot and the reward merchant and errand quest giver are safe if you approach them from the side.

Moving too far away from the spires will cause this quest to drop out of your journal.

Rewards

The reward for completing either quest is the same.
