When you speak to Tock, he will provide the following analysis:

Metallic specimen of foreign origin detected.

Beginning analysis ...

Specimen identified as an alloy of saronite and iron.

The ore used in this sample originated deep within the crust of Azeroth and was recently unearthed.

The saronite in this sample is nearly pure. Ores like this do not occur naturally on the surface of Azeroth.

This ore can only have been created by a powerful, malevolent force. Attempting to access databanks for more information ...

Access denied?

Further information can only be accessed from the archives within Ulduar, by order of Keeper Loken.

But one thing is for certain: this plate's size, thickness, and bolt holes point to a use as armor for a colossal structure.

Directive completed. Returning to standby mode.

He's so short =X be careful not to miss him like I did, he's underneath the anvil on the right

Comment by aoeu

Holy smack! Attendant Tock can jump at least 5 times his own height! =O

If you leave the "inn" where you excepted the quest, take a right and fallow the mountain side, you'll hit the workshop.

Comment by 696034

Just to add a more recent post really. Just to some up the above posts:

As above, out of Bouldercrag's refuge. Jump on ya mount. Follow the mountain to the right staying close to the face of it. Also go up slightly as u could fly under the workshop without seeing it :-p. 1st stone structure u come to.

If still on mount when u go into the workshop, advisable to run along the floor. U can't miss him as he has bright green letters above his head. (only guy stood up in there!). Located next to the anvil on the right.

After having done this quest at least a dozen times over the years on various alts, I learned today (quite by accident) that seemingly, you do not have to talk to Attendant Tock to complete the quest. It would seem just standing near him does the trick. I had to go afk right after I left my toon next to Tock. I did not interact with Tock in any way. When I returned a minute later, the quest was complete.

i made i playthrough of this quest if anyone wish to see how to do it :)

Attendant Tock may be based on Tik-Tok from Return to Oz, whom Dorothy had called "Tok." In the 1985 film Tok had a similar appearance to Attendant Tock.

The Armor's Secrets

Take the Dark Armor Plate to Mimir's Workshop and ask Attendant Tock to examine it. When you're finished, return to Bruor Ironbane at Bouldercrag's Refuge.

	Armor plate investigated (1)
	Dark Armor Plate (Provided) (1)

Description

The presence of that armor plate is disorienting, but we need to find out all we can from it. It could be part of one of Valduran's schemes.

He's dedicated an extraordinary amount of effort to mining, refining, smithing, and testing this metal.

To the east, along the northern mountain face, is a building called Mimir's Workshop. It hasn't been used in quite some time, but if we're lucky, some of its attendants are still functional. Take your armor plate there and learn what you can from it.
