Description

These here Argent Dawn people commissioned ol' Smokey to do a little demolition work for 'em. Smokey's mammy ain't raised no dummy. When gold coin is slapped on the table, Smokey's services are available. That's my motto!

Now I'd be willing to split the commission with you if you're willing to do a little legwork. Here's the deal: I'm going to head over to Plaguewood and mark the buildings we need destroyed. You gather the components for the bombs. Meet back here when you've got everything. Deal?

Reward

Also, you get: 1 75

Progress

Trust ol' Smokey, <race>. The reward will be worth it. These Argent Dawn folk don't mess around when it comes to payment.

Completion

I can pay you half up front and half when the job is done.

Gains

Upon completion of quests, get:
  • 620 experience (37 20 at max. level)

Osacron has this slightly wrong. Hi-Explosive Bombs are created in batches of four so only two batches need to be crafted, reducing the materials required considerably.

I have the items. But when I spoke to the NPC the Complete Quest button is gray. Do I need to goto Plaquewood and destroy the marked buildings 1st?

Beserk1's list is very nearly accurate, just over by 2 coarse stones I belive... But here it's down so you can look at your options on the auction house.

Thorium Bars
Thorium Ore (2) OR Thorium Bar (2)

Golden Rod
Gold Ore (1) OR Gold Bar (1)
Coarse Grinding Stone (2)

Hi-Explosive Bombs (makes 4 per batch, so crafted twice) plus Unstable Triggers
Mithril Casings (4) OR Mithril Bar (12) OR Mithril Ore (12)
Solid Blasting Powder (4) OR Solid Stone (8)
Unstable Triggers (10) OR the following list:

Unstable Triggers
Mithril Bar (10) OR Mithril Ore (10)
Mageweave Cloth (10)
Solid Blasting Powder (10) OR Solid Stone (20)

A note on the Unstable Triggers... You'll need 8 to turn in, plus 2 to make the bombs.

That should be it.

No rep given on this quest chain (meaning even the next quest as well)
