Effectively impossible to finish on lower population servers. You collect the mines, but the final part is a bomb run along the pier to the end, which is guarded by defenders shooting freeze bombs lasting 3 seconds with a 1 second CD. There are not enough NPC attackers to clear these, so you end up frozen continually. Going via the water seems to work until you get to the last spot on the pier where you can climb on to it, then you have the same problem of too many defenders. You can go all the way to the target underwater, but the explosion doesn't affect it and you end up respawned back at the other end of the pier again.
Yet another crap design for a mission in BFA from Blizz, well done.

As a horde, I had another quest overlapping this quest and couldn't figure out where the azurite tank was to blow up with the mines. Head down to the end of the dock. He's parked there, just waiting to die.

Comment by Plautus

Objective is at the end of the pier, near where you become a mine. Avoid the mobs that you can. Use the "deploy a mine to deal with a threat" ability for the mobs you can't avoid who freeze you. Easily solo'd on a low pop server with nobody else around.

For step 3 of the quest - as TheHund mentions, go to the end of the dock to blow up the azerite tank with button 3. If you get frozen as you go down there by the infantry, use button 2 to send out one of your 5 crawler mines to destroy them. You can still blow up the tank if you only have your own mine left.

Anyone still alive who thinks Blizzard actually tests this stuff needs to do this quest...

First, it's not even on the map correctly. I looked all over to find these stupid mines, just ignore the map.
Second, try and get the mines to the tank without being attacked by the mobs. Sometimes you can target them and destroy sometimes you can't (no idea why). And then it will just arbitrarily set you back to the beginning, no idea why.
Third, just try and find the tank. It's clear at the end of the pier. Ignore the other tanks along the way.

The mines that need to be *repaired* are at various locations around the base of the pyramid at 76, 25.

Once 5 mines are repaired by interacting with them use the controller at 76.3, 25 to control an individual mine.

You will need to pilot it to the far end of the dock at 80, 15 where the Azerite War Machine is at. Ignore any Invading Siege Machines. It is a typical alliance siege machine with its own name. Once there use the #3 button to detonate the mine.

The trek to the far end of the dock has a few encounters with mages that will freeze you in place. Use the #2 button to send other mines to blow them up so that you stop getting frozen. The #1 button can be used to gain a burst of speed.

Comment by Yotingo

For some reason, the mines don't want to target or attack any of the mobs except the mages that freeze you. So you're better off using your speed boost to run past any others. Try to avoid combat entirely by going past the mobs that already engaged in combat with other NPCs.

For the final stage of This Gang of Mine, the Azerite War Machine can be found at /way 82.75 14.18.

Precise coordinates for TomTom users are:

/way Nazmir 82.75 14.18 Azerite War Machine - use button 3 and escape this awful quest

Comment by Tsume

I never had any problems with this quest until 8.2. Now, the non-frost mage mobs can aggro onto the controllable crawler, which would be fine, except it causes your "gang" of following crawler mines to slow to a crawl. What then happens is I get to a frost mage and have to sit frozen for a full minute while waiting for the crawler mines to catch up before they respond to the kill command. My crawler also managed to die near the end to something.

Comment by Nekrotik

To clarify, there's only one Azerite War Machine that counts. It's the one at the very end of the dock. Ignore the other tanks near it that look almost like it. Blowing them up won't give you credit for the quest.

Location of the Remote Mine Controls: /way Nazmir 76.40 25

Comment by Xexji

What a terrible quest design. Either the random mobs that aggro you shouldn't daze your mine, or they shouldn't aggro you at all in the first place.

Comment by solitha

Looks like a lot of frustration and misunderstanding here. Let's see if I can help clarify things.

Step one: Assemble the gang. Five glitching crawler bots need to be found and clicked on to repair them. As they are often moving erratically, the best way to do this is to target them and spam a keybound "Interact" as they come into range.

Step two: Use the Remote Mine Controls. It puts you into a vehicle interface as a sixth crawler mine. You have three buttons: a speed boost, an attack order for your gang, and a self-destruct.

Step three: Your mission is to reach the far end of the dock to blow up a particular Alliance tank with your self-destruct.

Obstacle 1: Random NPCs. They chase you, daze you, and damage you. Use your speed boost to best effect to try to avoid them, but it won't break the daze. You can avoid a lot of them by going alongside the dock instead of directly down it.

Obstacle 2: 7th Legion Frostguards. First one, then one more, then a pair. If you get within a large radius of them, they will repeatedly freeze you in place for several seconds. Your gang to the rescue! Use your second button when you see a Frostguard, and one of the gang will go forward to blow him/her up. You don't need to select the target; the crawlers know what to do.

Obstacle 3: Gebish Togglebot. He will throw a bot-scrambler at you; it stuns and does damage. That's what the last member of your gang is for; use your second button, and it will go chase Togglebot around so you can get by.

Lastly is finding the correct tank and using your self-destruct. It should have a quest objective outline on it, but it can be a little hard to tell with the blue/gold color scheme. There are three tanks; two to the right, and one by itself. You're going for the single one.

If at any point you fail, you'll be back at the controls to start over with whatever of your gang was left. Don't worry, whatever the gang took care of the first time is still taken care of. Just go back straight down the dock.
