Quest text

A tiny voice crackles from deep within the machine.

"Wizbang here! The next Buzzbox is north of Auberdine, on the beach

So, that Buzzbox is number 411 and it needs 3 Thresher Eyes for its repairs. They're just off the coast! The darkshore threshers... *Hic*... Sorry about that...

Just like last time, when you give the Buzzbox the goods, it'll spit out your reward. *Hic*... What? No, I'm fine!"

Progress · As 1 player saw it in build 70009

Buzzbox 827 sits with an eerie silence. A single flashing light indicates that it needs 6 Crawler Legs to be placed in its holding box.

Completion · As 1 player saw it in build 70009

As you place the Crawler Legs inside the machine, you hear gears begin to grind. Judging from the banging sounds coming from the Buzzbox, you believe the Crawler Legs are being put in their proper place. Soon the machine begins to hum, and you hear a tiny voice calling out from within.

"Hello? Uhh... Hello! You fixed it! This is Wizbang by the way! Thanks a lot... Hey, you wouldn't want to fix another one, would ya?"
