not to be confused with the Depth Charge (item), an explosive in Delves

Mysterious Mining robots are suddenly everywhere underground, and it's up to you to uncover their plans and liberate a plucky little companion: the Minerbot Qubesley!
 

Depth Charge is an event which features 9 Golden Thread quests, having the players search for and rescue a Minerbot Qubesly.

It started in April 18, 2017 and lasted through May 2.

During the event, Steambot Drones will spawn in the Cursed Vale, Haunted Isles and Dragonfire Peaks biomes, Steambot Overseers spawn in the High Lands and Fae Forest biomes, and Gigas Minerbots spawn in the Dragonfire Peaks biome; killing these is required to progress through the quests, but they do not grant any unique items.

Completing the quests will award the player the event-specific Minerbot Qubesly ally.

Double Experience PotionDouble Experience Potion
Defeat Miners in Haunted Isles Caves  The voice continues, happily oblivious to your needs, 'Oh! I hear spooky noises. And the lapping waves of the Drowned Worlds. And the echo of caves.

Defeat Steambot Overseers in the High Lands  'I'm in a Steambot Overseer! Right below the brain-bucket. I'm sure of it! You're in the Cursed Skylands anyways, right?

Acquire Infinium  'Those miners were up all night looking for some kind of sun shard. It never dawned on them where to find them though. We'll find out what they were up to in no time.
