Bronze Tube in WoW Forever: where to buy, craft and use it
Quest 174 needs one Bronze Tube. Here is the nearest Classic vendor lead, the documented Forever recipe and where to look if stock is missing.

Where to get a Bronze Tube for Look to the Stars (quest 174)?
Start in Darkshire, Duskwood. The Forever client quest reference for Look to the Stars (#174) lists 1 Bronze Tube (item 4371) for Viktori Prism'Antras, near 79.8 / 48.0. This is an Alliance quest (level 25; available from level 20 in the reference). It is documented in a Forever client quest record, not verified as completed in live gameplay.
Nearest Classic vendor lead: Herble Baubbletump — Duskwood 77.0 / 48.0, close to the quest giver in Darkshire. His Bronze Tube sale and small stock are historical Classic references; availability in WoW Forever is unconfirmed. Check him while doing the quest, but do not assume he will have the item. If he is out of stock, consult all 16 Classic-reference sellers in our interactive map or ask an engineer to make one.
How do you craft a Bronze Tube in WoW Forever?
Forever-labelled Engineering spell 3938 lists 2 Bronze Bars (item 2841) + 1 Weak Flux (2880), a Blacksmith Hammer and an anvil. The spell page lists Engineering 105; a separate Forever recipe index displays a yellow skill threshold of 105. The colour threshold alone does not prove trainer access in live Forever.
Output quantity is disputed: Wowhead Forever displays 2 Bronze Tubes from the spell, whereas the other Forever-labelled recipe index says 1. Our interactive Engineering recipe therefore keeps the yield unconfirmed; do not count on a fixed quantity until a dated gameplay capture resolves it.

What if a vendor does not have a Bronze Tube?
Classic catalogue data lists limited supply with a maximum reference stock of 2 and a historical price of 8 silver. Neither number is a current Forever inventory, confirmed shop price or guaranteed respawn timer. Check another vendor, craft the part, or prepare it before visiting Darkshire rather than waiting for an assumed restock interval.
Sources and limits
The Forever quest 174 snapshot documents the item requirement; the Forever Engineering spell and independent recipe index document materials but disagree about output. Vendor positions, price and stock come from Classic references and our NPC catalogue. None verifies current live-server availability. How we rate sources.
