You receive the first card from the wandering elite mobs in the upper level outside of the instance.

Place that card in the card reader outside of the instance. (Run over to the west and get Techbot's brain while you're here).

Each card reader gives you the card needed for the next reader.

The remaining card readers are located inside the instance.

These are all of the translated messages from the five punch cards as well as all the machines:

Anyone know what the binary on the machines translates to? It's obviously ASCII given that it's 8 bits per segment and each starts with 0 but I don't want to do all that work for this :P

Kommentar von Thottbot

Question about the quest... Is it necessary to hold on to the old punch cards to complete the quest? My bank is breaking at the seams for slots :/

where can i get the white punch card? coz ive searched everywhere n still couldnt get the punch card... ^^

Kommentar von Thottbot

Hmm, I got the white and yellow card but where do i find blue and red card?
Having some serious problems with that :/.

Kommentar von Thottbot

where is the prismatic card ?

Kommentar von Thottbot

Does anyone know if we need all 4 cards to get the final card? I haven't found that written anywhere, even on that very cool map Dudes mentions above. My bank is breaking and I wondered if I could get rid of the old cards and save just the most recent aquisition, the Red card.

Kommentar von Thottbot

The white punch card (the first one) drops off the Addled Lepers (non-elite) that are outside the instance, by Techbot. They do NOT drop off the elite mobs (Caverndeep Invaders, etc). I know because I have been killing those elite mobs for the past hour for experience and such.

On a side note, Robo-mechanical guts DO drop off those elite mobs outside the instance. Not a great drop rate, but good to know if you like to solo quests as much as possible like me.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Those maps are awesome...they explain everything. and ignore what the guy said about the last card, it's in the engineering lab...best way to describe it. You need the most recent card to activate the machine, so you should be ok just keepng the last one you got to finish the quest. so, first card drops off the non-elite mobs outside the instance, then you have to go to the machine that is in the same room(near techbot, straight ahead when you come down the tunnel into the train depot) and it gives you the next card. then the next machine is outside the clean room, then the next machine is up a ramp when you get to the groups of gnomes around flying machines. you go up the ramp and fight the Electrocutioner 6000, he's guarding the machine. Then the last machine is in the engineering lab, as i already said. Have fun!

Kommentar von Thottbot

Do I need the prismatic punch card to get the schematics from the punch card machines? I got it off a mob in the backdoor hall, the one you need the workshop key to acess, and its what I need to turn in. Do I need it to get the engineering schematics from the punch card machines?

Kommentar von Thottbot

Ok I have completed this quest and handed it in. For some reason I still have all the punch cards minus the one that gets handed in. Is it safe to throw these old cards out now? I don't see any need for them at all and I can't sell them or trade them. It just takes up slots

Kommentar von Thottbot

what do i do i do with the Cards after were done with the quest . its a stupid question. but are the card unless after, or would we need them for later on?

Kommentar von Thottbot

--EDIT--
Lower cards are useless once data rescue is finished.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Now i have white, yellow, blue, and red punchcards, BUT now what and how the heck do i get the prismatic card?

Kommentar von Allakhazam

The binary code on the punch cards translates, through ASCII, into more proof of the immense sense of humor of the programmers.

White Punch Card
SUPER CRITICAL TRIPLE-ENCODED DATA CARD
Thrall and Jaina sitting in a tree, K-I-S-S-I-N-G

Yellow Punch Card
ULTRA VITAL DATA! SECURITY RATING 5122!
If you can read this, you're standing too close

Blue Punch Card
DO NOT LET THIS INFORMATION INTO ENEMY HANDS!
The gnome king wears night elf underwear

Red Punch Card
SECURITY RATING 10^10000 SUPER SENSITIVE DATA!
Help! I'm trapped in a binary punch card factory!

Prismatic Punch Card
THE SECURITY RATING OF THIS CARD SO HIGH THAT IT IS PENDING THE INVENTION OF A NEW NUMBER TO DESCRIBE IT!

Hello,
I've finished this quest. But all 4 cards which are necessary to get the prismatic punchcard remained in my inventory.

They are soulbound and as far as i understand they have no other use.

What do i do with them? Simply throw away?

Kommentar von Allakhazam

can i do this Q if i am lvl 10 ?

Kommentar von Allakhazam

how do you combin the cards to make the prismatic card?

Kommentar von Allakhazam

C machines were in Dormatory I believe, and D was near electrocutioner 6000

Kommentar von Allakhazam

What's the deal with these punchcards?

Are they Alliance only or Horde only or both?

Are they for engineers or any profession/class can use them and get the quest?

Kommentar von Allakhazam

The last key is at the north of the techbo, but that is only if you have the key to the "back door", Techbot is located near the first punch card machine-A (To the west of the machines) and those machines are straight from the first ramp when one enter gnomeregan. The Machine-B is inside the instance to the left after the ramp, after entering the instance, head left at the split, go straight pass another T junction, then take a left(usually there are 3 mobs there), right after take a right down the stairs, one will find a shelter there, with the machine-B and the 5200 machines. I am still looking for the C machines

Kommentar von Allakhazam

where is the machine for the last key..i read on another site that it was north of the techbot...but where is the techbot?

White Punch Card is a drop from pretty much anything outside of the instance, as far as I can tell. 3005-A is just outside the workshop door, where you find Techbot. 3005-B is just outside of the Clean Zone (just below that, between there and the pit with the slimes and horrors.)

3005-D is in the Engineering Labs just before the Leper King's area ...

FINALLY found Punchograph 3005-C! Based on the Electocutioner tip and the fact that 3005-D is in the Engineering bay, we searched one of the two places in GNR that I haven't memorized in my now frequent explorations - one of the off-shoot tunnels from the main hub (the hub you enter from the 1st instance portal)leads to the Launch Bay, and high atop the platform in the very center is the Electrocutioner and the fabled Punchograph 3005-C. The mob also drops the Workshop Key, which is sad because I already had that and yet didn't remember that there WAS a launch bay ...

Thanks!

*Avril - you can get the plans if you are horde, read on.*

Loot the White Punch Card from the NPCs in Gnomeregan, inside or outside the instance.

Take the White Punch Card to the Matrix Punchograph 3005-A that is located to the north of both the elevator or the transporter.

You will get the Yellow Punch Card.

Take the Yellow Punch Card to the Matrix Punchograph 3005-B that is located in the bottom of the Dormitories.

You will get a Blue Punch Card.
If you are an Engineer and managed to get a 'Security BETA Access Card' to drop, you will also get the 'Plans: Minor Discombobulator'.

Take the Blue Punch Card to the Matrix Punchograph 3005-C that is located at the top of the Launch Bay on the platform.

You will get a Red Punch Card.

Take the Red Punch Card to the Matrix Punchograph 3005-D that is located at the bottom of the platform in the Engineering Labs.

You will get a Prismatic Punch Card.
If you are an Engineer and managed to get a 'Security DELTA Access Card' to drop, you will also get the 'Plans: Discombobulator Ray'.

Take the cards back to Ironforge to complete the quest.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I have all the punchcards but how do i get the prismatic punch card?

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I cant do this if im horde can I? I heard there was an engineering recipie reward for this and I would like to get my hands on it ><.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Read all about the cards, went along to pick'm up,
found out at Teminal D, that the last card i get is supposed to be delievered in Ironforge......
to end a Q there. VERY disapointing, as I am a Horde !
I will now throw away everything concerning Gnomeregan and never think of that place again !
BTW. Got 2 Gnomish "Plans":
Minor Discombobulator'.
Discombobulator Ray'. Yepeeeeeeeeeee.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Red Card is found on a circular platform Where th eElectrocutioner Mech is. I think it is in the Engineering area.

Kommentar von PPSF

Run into Gnomeregan, take the elevator down, follow the tunnel until it turns north, and follow the tunnel north until it opens into a large, open room:

/way Dun Morogh 21.8 33.5 Entrance to the First Key Card Room

Kill the addled lepers until you get your White Punch Card, and take it to the north side of the room to the Punchograph 3005-A there so that you don't have to fight through elite troggs to get your Yellow Punch Card.

/way Dun Morogh 22.03 30.96 Easy Access 3005-A Punchograph

Kommentar von stakkels

White Punch Card - Drops randomly from a mob outside the instance.
Yellow Punch Card - Use an "A" machine near Techbot (Outside the instance)
Blue Punch Card - Use the "B" machine just past the Clean Room (Inside)
Red Punch Card - Use the "C" machine on Electrocutioner 6000's Platform (Inside)
Prismatic Punch Card - Use the "D" machine below Crowd Pummeler 9-60 (Inside)

Kommentar von colorless

Is it possible to do in SoD? There is no Matrix Punchograph on the Electrocutioner 6000's Platform right now.

Kommentar von Deathisi

If you drop the quest does the stay in your bags?

Als wir aus Gnomeregan flohen, haben wir so viele Daten zurückgelassen! Lebenswichtige Informationen!

Ich brauche die Daten auf einer Prismalochkarte aus einem Matrix-Prägographen 3005-D, einem Hochsicherheitsterminal, tief in Gnomeregan. Ihr müsst auf dieses Terminal zugreifen, aber dafür braucht Ihr die Zugangsberechtigung ... und um die zu erhalten, müsst Ihr erst Zugang zu den Terminals niedrigerer Sicherheitsstufen - Modelle A, B und C - haben. DAFÜR wiederum braucht Ihr Sicherheitslochkarten, angefangen mit einer weißen ... Und wir haben alle Lochkarten in der Stadt vergessen.

Das ist eine Katastrophe! Könnt Ihr helfen?
