Kommentar von Hoazl

Diese Quest ist Teil der Operation Gnomeregan.

Sie beginnt mit der Quest Eine Frage der Gnomenehre, die man in der Tüftlerstadt in Eisenschmiede bei Hochtüftler Mekkadrill starten kann.

Teile dieser Questreihe können bereits mit Level 1 gestartet werden. Der letzten beiden Quests jedoch benötigen mindestens Level 75. Die letzte Quest schließlich gibt als Belohnung die Heldentat Operation Gnomeregan..

Die gesamte Questreihe besteht aus:
Eine Frage der Gnomenehre
Grundbefehle
Rein und Raus
Ein Schritt nach vorn...
Feuer drücken
Am Rande der Schächte
Die Rede vorbereiten
Worte zur Übermittlung

Weiter geht's erst mit Level 75:
Wortübermittlung
Operation Gnomeregan

Als Belohnung für die Schlussquest gibt es, neben dem bereits erwähnten Erfolg, auch noch das Item Tuch von Gnomeregan. Meiner Meinung nach viel lustiger (und auch für Charaktere unter Stufe 75 zu erreichen) ist die Questbelohnung von Worte zur Übermittlung: Stolz von Gnomeregan. Dieses Item verwandelt euch für 30 Minuten in einen Gnom.

Two weeks after Gnomer is retaken, at the suggestion of a few key Night Elves, the King decides that testing a new form of power station is a great way to secure the new power base.

Two and a half weeks later, green ooze starts to appear around the edges of the city

Three weeks later, They're back in Ironforge again.

Bound to be a very epic ending. If you look at the chain you'll be motivating gnomes, using high tech battle machines, and flying an airplane around Ironforge, what more could you ask for?

Kommentar von 258919

Don't look so smug! I know what you're thinking, but Gnomeregan-5 was merely a set back. Did you honestly believe I would trust the future to some weak, irradiated lepers? Oh no, they were merely an instrument, a stepping stone to a much larger plan! It has all led to this, and this time, you will not interfere!

Kommentar von Jihnad

Übermantel von Gnomeregan Possibly a clue to what item we may receive.

About time the gnomes get their city back from the like the level 35 elite mob

Kommentar von Quilan

(@ Amrun) *starts B5 music* It was the dawn of the 3rd age of Gnome-kind, 10 yrs after the Trogg-Gnome war. The Gnomeregan Project was a dream given form a place were gnomes and others could work out their diffrences peacfuly, given the port-of-call "Home away from home" for diplomats, entrepenuers and wanderers. Gnomes and others wraped in 2,500,000 tons of spinning metal, all alone in the cold. It can be a dangerous place, but its our last best hope for peace. This is the story of the last of the Gnomeregan cities, the year is 2010, the name of the place is Gnomeregan-5.

Thermapluggg should have the title Leper Khan.

High Tinker Mekkatorque says: Whuh-oh! Lapforge, beam us back, quickly!
As the Irradiator 3000 explodes, the party is teleported to Tinker Town.

thats the end of the script of the quest, i believe. i find it funny how they made a Star Trek reference through "Beam us back" and the name "Lapforge", instead of "Laforge" from star trek TNG

im just bored so im commenting on that,

Kommentar von JalanBax

Have I missed this event? Or is it only on the PTR at the moment?

Kommentar von 48903

Is there a level minimum to get the end quest?

Kommentar von 237281

Total payout for the questline just under 100 gold. Not bad at all for someone who's been stuck doing dailies to raise cash.

Kommentar von 458613

So a few quick and simple suggestions to quickly and easily complete this quest:

Stay with the King.
Stay with the King.
Stay with the King.
STAY WITH THE KING!

Three times we had to deal with folks who either ran into gnomer before the tankbusters were done or ran into gnomer before the tunnel boss was done.

The King ended up glitching and just sitting there and then reset.

With 20 or so or us behind enemy lines.

Said enemy lines were highly antagonized elite gnomes.

It hurt.....

So please.....for the kittens....stay with the King.

Kommentar von 156551

Admiral Ackbar: "Take evasive action. Green Group, stay close to holding sector MD-7."
Crewman: "Admiral, we have enemy ships in sector 47!"
Ackbar: "It's a trap!"

Kommentar von error10

This quest can be completed while in a raid group. Not that you'll NEED one...

Kommentar von Spring

Although it may be inferred from previous comments:

The King's buff seems to have a radius. Do not stray from him too far or you lose the buff, much like in the retaking of the Undercity.

Make no mistake: These may be gnomes and troggs, but they hit hard.

Kommentar von 363646

I have a question about this quest. when you accept the quest and trying to reach your goal, but unfortunately it get bugged and you aborted the quest, so you can retake the quest again. where do you need to go to get the quest again?

Kommentar von Lysergicius

To clarify, you're not required to be wearing the Gnome disguise to do this quest, or receive the buffs.

Kommentar von Kaemalux

Besides staying with the King, DO NOT enter tunnels while you are killing mobs after the spawn of Thermaplug: you could bug the event. It happened just 5 mins to us because of stupid rushing kids...

Kommentar von 368187

This is a phased event. So if you want to take screenshots or record a video etc, Do it before you turn in the quest.

Kommentar von MrFix3

Note that the quests in this questline count towards Loremaster of Eastern Kingdoms

Kommentar von Azmodanrom

what is the minimum level to take this quest?
at level 42 High Tinker would not give me this quest. (i;ve done all the other quests related to this event)

Kommentar von 433468

i just done this here today from 10 minutes ago and it was just so funny as ive already seen the video in here so i knew everything how to do and it all best time. ty blizzard, fast make some more =D!

Kommentar von Popolo

When the bomb goes off at the end of the quest, there is a reference to the movie "Aliens" when the planet was about to blow up.

"Attention. Emergency. You now have 10 minutes to reach minimum safe distance"

Kommentar von Bombkirby

Any one know the emote macro thing that one would type in the chat bar to hear the awesome Gnomeregan event music?

Kommentar von Pixie

I was really disappointed in this quest. Having done the Horde event the day before, I was really looking forward to something of a similar magnitude. Instead... it just seemed to be a glorified escort quest, where you run the risk of bugging it if you even try to help Mekkatorque, and you don't actually achieve what you set out to do (reclaim Gnomer).

Given the lead-up quests, I think Blizzard could've done a much better job if they'd given us a chance to jump into the battle tanks (which we trained in and helped test), and we could somehow use them to shut down the radiation device - then defeat Thermaplugg ourselves.

At the end of the quest, Mekkatorque says that Thermaplugg is scared and retreating (or something to that effect), but I didn't get a sense of that at all.

Kommentar von Gambolputty

This final quest does not count for Loremaster of Eastern Kingdoms. The previous quests does.

Kommentar von 436173

I have very mixed feelings about this whole event. Yeah, it was a funny and easy diversion for 45 minutes or so, and it did add a neat layer of old-world story to get you into the mindset for Cataclysm.

However, the ending was a major letdown. There's no challenge, you accomplish nothing, and you get no reward (the only real reward is Gnomergan Pride, which you get several steps before the final event). The cape is completely pointless now (once they removed the overdrape feature originally planned for it).

The final event is ripped straight from the amazingly epic Wrathgate quest line, yet it fails to live up to that storyline in every way.

You don't even gain any reputation with Gnomergan Exiles, which makes absolutely no sense given the context of the story.

All in all, a pretty poor advertisement for Cataclysm IMO.

Kommentar von xoddie

FYI, You don't have to participate in killing the mobs at all. By the time i did this on my 5th toon, I just mounted up and auto-followed a random person and walked away from the computer. When I came back, I was back in IF with a completed quest.

Kommentar von solvematic

A stupid question - does any change occur after you finish the quest chain (on the life servers)?
Because I didn't notice any :(

Kommentar von GQSmoooth

Freakin horrible. Pretty impossible to complete as there are so many bugs in the quest. Tried it by myself, not passing the King once and it still glitched out. Pretty fail Blizz... Excited to see how many bugs and glitches Cata will have.

Kommentar von Kaitech

Anyone reckon the name of the quest could be a distant reference to the Dragonforce song Operation Ground and Pound? They do sound slightly similiar..

Kommentar von sweboy99

This is beta testing at is finest. This event was tested several months ago on the PTR (3.3.5 or earlier I think), and they must have gotten a lot of feedback on these events. Yet they release the very same event with the very same bugs. Sometimes I don't know what they are doing...

Kommentar von MarkusF

Oh and just a warning: it is unlikely, but you CAN die. The 'doc' buf can wear of you teh doc gets out of sight. It happend to me before we enterred the tunels on the open field battles. I was completely anware and suddenly in 2 strikes I was dead. Quick ress and run was no problem to continue and complete as normal.

So that is a second reason to stay close :-)

Kommentar von Sargeant

ended up not being as epic as i thought we kinda diddnt take it back, plus it got nuked again, the trolls on the other hand had no problem at all

Kommentar von ograymic

It seems that the possible answer to it not bugging is to not dps as fast, I noticed on my last two runs we took out the waves before the next spawned and it bugged, This time I didn't dps as much to let the waves spawn and it finished just fine.
This is just a theory though, try it and report back.

Kommentar von coolderka

wish had that healers like "Doc" Cogspin on my raid yesterday... ;)

Kommentar von 568686

Just spent about 15-20 mins doing the quest with no other players present, following the king around to clear the surface and then go into the tunnels. Parachute down, get to the plague area room, waves of infected gnomes come, kill them. King and gnome npcs reset and stand there doing nothing......... for minutes and minutes....... then despawn and the quest updates vanish........ no way to get back up........ quest screwed........ lots of time completely wasted...... enjoy your hearth out! Try again next time and maybe you won't get screwed then! MAYBE!......... (not likely)

Honestly that's sad and disappointing. Fail on blizzard's part.

Kommentar von 436603

ITS A TRAP!

Kommentar von gmagnus

Any word on how long this will last?

Kommentar von saber20

Velen should have a similar quest called: Operation: Black Temple. The draenei should take back what is rightfully theirs! :D

Kommentar von Calabra

FIXING THE BUG PROBLEM

I wrote to the GM on my Hunter (Stonetemple - Madoran). The GM told me that they were aware of the problem and were trying to find a solution. However, I should try the following. I did and it worked for me.

1. Abandon the quest.

2. Place all quest items that you have in your bags into your backpack. (I removed them all from my backpack and placed them in the bank; with the exception of the item that turns you into a gnome for the event. That I placed in my backpack.)

3. Go to the quest giver (you will need to ride your mount to him, since it is the King of the Gnomes) and get the quest again.

4. As soon as you get the quest don the gnome suit you are given and wait for the operation to begin. You may be the only one doing it, thus wait your 6 minutes for the operation to start.

On a side note, you don't want to bug the operation again. Therefore, remember to stay behind the King at all times and follow his instructions. You don't want to get ahead of him in the operation.

Good luck and have a great time.

This happened to me too, something bugged and i lost track of the king...

Just go back to the starting point (which I couldn't find quickly) or go near the first battle at the airstrip, u should see the counter at the top of your screen counting to start time of next battle. When they attacked the airstrip just follow with them and your back in.

As stated previously -- Stay with the King! I set focus on him to help keep an eye on him. You virtually can't get killed thanks to the Doc's buff, and u don't need to lift a finger to help - just follow the King. (But that gets boring so kill something...)

When the king gets to the elevator (not working) and jumps into the shaft, his parachute opens. You will have one too, don't try to find one to put on, just jump and one magically opens for you. Rest is cake walk.

Follow up quest is /script DEFAULT_CHAT_FRAME:AddMessage("\124cffffff00\124Hquest:2927:27\124h\124h\124r"); from Gnoarn beside gear in Tinkertown - kinda lame...

Kommentar von omojito

This quest is just messed up I stayed with the king at all times and had it bug multiple times. The horde version has none of these problems. I've never had it freeze once. I've died and had to run back and no problems.

Can you still do this quest now that 4.0.1 has hit?
