Found off a 'Steam Pump Overseer' that guards the drain controls.

Commentaire de 10939

Drain is located at 50,40. Once you get there swim down in the water and you will discover it.

Commentaire de Orik

A Steam Pump Overseer that has a higher drop rate of this item is located east of Coilfang Reservoir.

Had to kill about 20 overseers (after the Naga Claws quest) to get this item. The quest rewards and XP make it worth it. Wish it was automatic though.

Confirm coords 50,40.
Thats good and easy quest :)

Commentaire de Maxwell

You can farm this while on "Balance must be Preserved." Simply use the seed at the same station even after you've completed the quest requirements for that location. The seed will continue to spawn Overseers.

Despite the requirement of level 59, it is not possible to obtain this quest at level 59.

What we did was get my level 59 character to the quest target for "Balance Must Be Preserved" while a level 61 was on said quest. The level 61 had not done the Drain Schematics quest. We spawned the steam pump dude several times until it dropped. The level 61 could see the drop, but I at level 59 could not. We tried all the loot types (free for all, etc) and had it drop each time.

It does drop when you don't have the Balance Must Be Preserved quest. But again, not for a level 59.

There are few Steam Pump Overseers up at a given time, and the respawn rate is fairly long.

The best way to quickly get these schematics is while on the quest "Balance Must Be Preserved" (http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=9720). Every time you use the Iron Vine Seeds (http://www.wowhead.com/?item=24355), a Steam Pump Overseer will spawn. These overseers you force to spawn won't yield experience, but they can drop the Drain Schematics, as well as Naga Claws required for "A Warm Welcome" (http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=9728), and the Unidentified Plant Parts required for "Plants of Zangarmarsh" (http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=9802) and "Identify Plant Parts" (http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=9784).

There's no cooldown on the Ironvine Seeds. Just it will not force a respawn of a Steam Pump Overseer if one is already up that you forcibly spawned. However the one that guards the controls can respawn independently as well.

Yup, Balance Must Be Preserved is definitely the way to do this =p I was killing my fourth Overseer when AV popped, and just as I was resigning to have to come back he dropped the plans.

Ok yes this is farmable... you need the quest "Balance Must Be Preserved" kill the "Steam Pump Overseer" he will be standing in front of pump use that were provide by the quest to finish part of the quest plus it will resummon "Steam Pump Overseer"..kill him again if did not drop.. keep using to resummon him and repeat i did this as a 62 MS warrior took me 22 kills to get it...8% drop

Commentaire de 1Beachcomber

I can confirm that you get zero exp for the Steam Pump Overseer. You can summon him endlessly using the Ironvine Seeds, but get between 10 and 14 silver per kill and some plant parts.

I had a L60 in party in an attempt to get the Drain Schematics quest, but they were not visible. It does look like a person needs to be on the Balance Must Be Preserved quest. Drop rate is still very poor.

Commentaire de Grakkh

Oddly enough on all my three previous chars I got them pretty much like most others, one the first or so overseer kill while on the Balance Must Be Preserved quest. However with my latest char, I had to grind Nagas for a long time to get this to drop, eventually got it off a Slavedriver. Weird. So this just for those who might be getting frustrated with theirs, you just might be having some bad luck even if on the quest.

Commentaire de phoebe81

It should probably be noted that if you want to stand there and summon Overseers using your Ironvine Seeds, you will not receive exp for these spawns. So if it's starting to take a while, it might not be worth the time to just stand there spamming kills and not receiving any exp for it.

Commentaire de 344384

If I've already completed the quest "Balance Must Be Preserved" will it still be able to drop for me?

Commentaire de 457263

I can confirm that you can get this item after completing Balance Must Be Preserved.

I just got the item drop off of a Bloodscale Wavecaller. This was the first Naga I killed after completing and turning in the quest Balance Must Be Preserved.

Commentaire de 560996

I was killing random Nagas and it dropped from second or third kill by Bloodscale Enchantress. I have done the pre-quest before it, so you dont need to be on it for drop.

Commentaire de aberdonian

I can confirm that you do not need to be on Balance must be preserved to have the drain schematics quest start item drop, as I remembered this quest when i had nearly completed questing in Zangarmarsh, and farmed the item, took no more than 10 minutes.

Commentaire de 496243

As far as drops go with patch 3.3.5. you don't need to be on the "Balance Must Be Preserved" Quest to get the schematics but you cen use the Seed during the quest to reaply it on the same drainpipe controls over and over again each time spawning a new Overseer who has the mosts % chance of dropping this quest starter!

Commentaire de 535702

All you need for this item to drop is to be lvl 59 and kill one of the mobs dropping it.

A really great 59 twink ring.

Commentaire de 549001

So this quest (and the item at the end of the chain, that I want) is not available to Horde? (Since Balance-Preserved is an Alliance-only quest.)

Commentaire de 805584

The schematics do drop after turning in Balance Must Be Preserved. I had already turned in the quest but realized I didn't get the schematics so I farmed some Steam Pump Overseers with no success. I actually got the drop off of a Bloodscale Overseer.

Commentaire de 840315

Went to cords 70, 80. Mission was to farm Overseers for drop.

Quest dropped first Overseer kill.

Was on no other quests at the time - was working on Mysteries of the March achievement and was stuck on the last few.

Commentaire de 146544

I did this with my Level 66 Priest-Shadow. Flew on my carpet to about middle of structure in the middle of the lake, stop on its structure. Drank the underwater potion, dove down into middle of it got a "COMPLETE". Turned in. Level up!

Commentaire de Destler

This is a good thing to look for if you are stuck with only a couple quests to go. After you turn in the schematics, the questgiver will tell you to fly to Hellfire. When you get there it counts as another quest, and flying back counts as another quest. So finding these schematics is a bonus 3 quests.

Post-Cata patch 4.3: Unable to believe it myself, but my Quest Completionist add-on told me I was missing this chain and from most of the comments above players originally had to have the L'équilibre doit être préservé to get the drop chance. Then comments said that had changed. So hoping I wasn't wasting time, I headed to the Bloodscale Grounds, and it dropped on the very first Surveillant de la pompe à vapeur.

Had just completed Les mystères du marécage, so confirming as of this patch it IS still obtainable even loooooong after completing L'équilibre doit être préservé. Now I can do the last four quests to clear the zone, thanks to wowhead users like YOU. =^)

Commentaire de nikolakhs7

thx a lot it works:)

Commentaire de rfrisk

Make sure you go towards the entrance to coilfang resoivoir. I swam all around the bottom before I wised up and went to top of drain and got 'complete'

Commentaire de Leafy13

I can confirm that the quest item does still drop even after you have completed the "Balance Must Be Preserved" quest. My level 64 Undead rogue was sitting at 50/52 quests completed in Zangarmarsh. I killed somewhere around 10 Steam Pump Overseers, Bloodscale Overseers, and Bloodscale Wavecallers and the item dropped off of a Bloodscale Overseer. It took around five minutes of farming.

Commentaire de zhins

you can just get the Graines de vignefer from the quest Balance Must Be Preserved, and spam spawn the steam pump overseer to drop the quest item Schéma des drains

Commentaire de dasbaum

Item Schéma des drains can drop after you completed À vol d'oiseau. Meaning, while you are doing quest L'équilibre doit être préservé.

You will usually get this item/quest to drop while doing L'équilibre doit être préservé as the NPCs Surveillant de la pompe à vapeur have the highest droprate. The schematics do drop from other naga as well though, it's a tedious grind.

You can "force spawn" Surveillant de la pompe à vapeur with the quest item Graines de vignefer from the quest L'équilibre doit être préservé. But if you have already completed this and have been unlucky with the droprate, thus did not get the schematics, you can still kill the other naga and the one overseer that always spawns at a pump.

The NPC Surveillant de la pompe à vapeur also does spawn normally. There is one at each pump every ~2-3 min respawn. Fastest way to get the schematic is to either use the Graines de vignefer or fly between pumps in a circle to kill the Surveillant de la pompe à vapeur until you get the schematics.

Macro to check your progress:

/script for k,v in pairs({=9718,=9720})do print(format("%s: %s", k, IsQuestFlaggedCompleted(v) and "\124cff00ff00DONE\124r" or "\124cffff0000NOT DONE\124r")) end

Commentaire de Lilyoptra

I came back to do this quest long after I had completed the previous quest, "Balance Must be Preserved". Was concerned after reading the comments that I would be here awhile before it dropped and, sure enough, multiple kills and no drop. Then I noticed a "!" on the map and hovering it said it was for "Drain Schematics". Went to that area and it dropped off the 1st naga I killed. Hopefully this helps someone like me :).
