Durotar quest guide

[Bossman4]

Another Guide.

Your Place In The World
The first quest you get is from Kaltunk who is standing right in front you next to the fire. He wants you to talk to Gornek who is at the mouth of the cave to your left. You will also see a yellow dot on your mini-map showing you his location. Click on him to finish the quest.

Cutting Teeth
This next quest you get from Grull Hawkwind has you getting 10 mountain cougar pelts. Also he will have a quest to deliver a note to your class trainer after you complete the first quest so do that now before you go on with this quest.

Gornek seems to not think very highly of you and wants you to kill 10 mottled boars. The boars are all around the area and are levels 1 and 2. Kill the ten you need then return to Gornek for a reward of either Soft Wool Boots (cloth, feet, 7 armor) or Battleworn Leather Gloves (leather, hands, 21 armor).

Sting Of The Scorpid
After finishing The Hunt Continues this quest will popup automatically. Grull Hawkwind wants you to kill battleboars and gather 8 battleboar snouts and flanks.

Gornek thinks you did ok with the boars so now he sends you after 10 Scorpid Worker tails to make the antidote for their poison and to show your prowess in battle. As you walk out of the cave head to the fire then go to your left. Go past the impossible high ground then turn left again when you can and you will end up in an area full of Scorpid Workers that are level 3. The Scorpid Worker tails you need are a random drop from these. They can hit you with weak poison that does 1 nature damage every 3 seconds and lasts for 12 seconds for a total of 4 nature damage, no big deal. Gather the 10 Scorpid Tails and head back to Gornek for a reward of either Soft Wool Belt (cloth, waist, 6 armor) or Battle Worn Cape (Back, 5 armor).

Sarkoth Part 1
This quest is given to you by Chief Hawkwind who is in the tent behind Grull Hawkwind.

If you looked around the area when you were killing Scorpid Workers you might have seen a guy under a tree. This is Hana'Zua. He attacked a Scorpid named Sarkoth and is now poisoned by him. He wants you to go kill Sarkoth to uphold his honor. You will find Sarkoth to your left as you face Hana'Zua and the tree he is under. You will see a path into the hills, follow it and Sarkoth will be to your right just as the land flattens out. Sarkoth is a level 4 Scorpid and should not be a problem to kill. He is marked red meaning unlike the beasts with the yellow names you fought before he will attack you when you get close. Bring Sarkoth's Mangled Claw back to Hana'Zua.

Sarkoth Part 2
After you take Sarkoth's Mangled Claw back to Hana'Zua he will tell you he can't make it back to The Den and will ask you to tell Gornek of his plight. You remember Gornek is at the mouth of the cave next to the fire right? Then head to him and finish this up. Gornek will tell you he will send help and will reward you with either a Soft Wool Vest (Cloth, Chest, 10 armor) or Battleworn Chain Leggings (Mail, legs, 58 armor).

Calgar's Cactus Apple Surprise
If you look to the left just as you the cave you will see an area with three orcs and a big pot with bubbling greenish stuff, umm yummy. Talk to the one named Calgar and he will tell you how hot it is and how he can make his Cactus Apple surprise that will cool you off, you just need to get the apples. Head out past the fire and make a left and you will see the cactus. When you come to one that turns your pointer into a yellow gear you have found a cactus apple. Click and wait a moment then move on to the next. After gathering all 10 head back to Calgar to get 50 copper and 10 Cactus Apple surprise that will restore 61 health over 18 seconds and if you eat it for 10 seconds it will give you +2 to stamina and spirit for 15 minutes.

Lazy Peons
If you walk out of the cave past the fire and the little graveyard to the right you will run into Foreman Thazz'ril. He wants you to keep the peons working so he give you his blackjack to beat the peons who are sleeping on the job. The peons are around the hills at the edges of the area. Target the ones on their backs with the green Z's above their heads. Left click them to target them then right click on the blackjack to beat them. After getting 5 of them back to work head back to Foreman Thazz'ril.

Thazz'ril's Pick


After turning in the Lazy Peons quest this quest will automatically pop up. Thazz'ril left his pick behind in a cave and now he can't get it because monsters are in the cave now.....wimp. It's up to you to get it. As you are facing him head left until you reach the cave. When you see the Vile Familiars your close to the cave. In the cave you will find Vile Familiar's and Felstalkers level 3 and 4. Head in and go past the first turn off to the right and go into to second right hand turn off. You will find Thazz'ril's pick in this area next to a pool of water. If you get lost just follow the water in the cave to its source the pick is right next to it. Head back to Thazz'ril for a reward of 1 silver 50 copper.

Vile Familiar's
You get this quest from Zureetha Fargaze who is next to the Warrior and Hunter trainers. She tells you a group called The Burning Blade has moved into the valley. She wants you to get started on the removal of The Burning Blade by killing 12 Vile Familiar's. If you just did the quest Thazz'ril's Pick you know there area where they are at, if not it's to the northeast. Vile Familiar's are level 3 and 4. After killing the 12 head back to get a reward of a Primitive Club (main-hand, mace, 2.1 dps), Primitive Hand Blade (one-hand, dagger, 2.1 dps), Primitive Hatchet (main-hand, axe, 2.0 dps), or a Primitive Walking Stick (two-hand, staff, 2.6 dps)

Burning Blade Medallion
After getting your reward for the quest Vile Familiar's this quest will pop up. Zureetha Fargaze wants you to go into the cave with the Vile Familiars and get the Burning Blade Medallion. Just head to the cave take the first right inside the cave and follow the path to the back of the cave. On an outcropping you will find Yarrog Boneshadow a level 5 orc who has the medallion. Kill him loot the medallion and head back for a reward of either Dust Covered Leggings (leather, legs, 29 armor), Jagged Chain Vest (mail, chest, 67 armor), or Ripped Pants (cloth, legs, 9 armor). You will also receive a minor healing potion.

Report To Sen'jin Village
After picking your reward for the quest Burning Blade Medallion this quest pops up. Zureetha Fargaze wants you to go to Sen'jin Village and tell Master Gadrin of the Burning Blade. Follow the road until it turns to the left and head right instead. Master Gadrin is standing next to a small pool of water in the middle of the village.

Report To Orgnil
After reporting to Master Gadrin he will have several quests for you and this is the easiest. He wants you to report to Orgnil Soulscar in Razor Hill. Razor Hill is north of Sen'jin Village. Just follow the road north straight into Razor Hill. You might want to stop by the peon standing just outside of The Valley Of Trials where the road turns north while heading this way as he has a quest in the same direction. When you reach Razor Hill Orgnil will be standing on the left just outside of a bunker. Talk to him and click continue and the window will close. He will say in the chat window "What?? The Burning Blade is spreading? We must investigate!

A Peon's Burden
You will see a peon standing outside of The Valley Of Trials just as the road turns north. He brought some food from Razor Hill but they don't need it in the valley. He is too scared to take it back so it's up to you. Head north along the road and you will come to Razor Hill. The inn you need to bring the food to is the second building on the left. Take to the innkeeper and you can have either 5 Tough Hunk of Bread (restores 61 health over 18 seconds) or 5 Refreshing Spring Water (Restores 151 mana over 18 seconds)

Break A Few Eggs
Baine Bloodhoof wants you too talk to Zarlman Two-Moons. He's not far. You should see a little yellow dot on your mini-map showing where he is at. Just walk a little north past the kudo riding instructor and Zarlman will be standing at the big fire. Talk to him for the next part of the quest.

Thwarting Kolkar Aggression
You get this quest from Lar Prowltusk who wanders just west of Sen'jen Village near the riding raptors. He got into the centaur camp when they were out raiding and found that they are planning to attack Durotar in three waves. I don't know how a bunch of level 6-8 centaurs think they will take over Durotar but Lar wants you to stop them by burning the three scrolls with the attack plans.

Head to the top of the fallen tree then head west and you will come to the camps in an area called Kolkar Crag. The first is to the left just as you enter the area. In the tent on the floor in front of the bear rug you will see a paper on the ground called Attack Plan: Valley of Trials. Click on it to burn it.

Next head out and further west and to your right will be the next camp. Under the open canopy tent will be the next plan Attack Plan: Sen'jin Village. Click it to burn it then head west again to the last camp.

In the last camp under the open canopy tent will be Attack Plan: Ogrimmar. I guess they are just going to bypass Razor Hill! Click the paper to burn it then head back to Lar Prowltusk for a reward of either a Seasoned Fighter's Cloak (Back, 8 armor) or Heavy Cord Bracers (Cloth, wrist, 8 armor).
Practical Prey
You get this quest from Vel'rin Fang in Sen'jin Village. He says the village needs more tiger furs and you the one who's going to get them. You will find the Durotar Tigers, level 7 and 8, on the islands to the south of Sen'jin Village. After getting 4 Durotar tiger furs head back for a reward of 2 silver 25 copper.

A Solvent Spirit
This quest is from Master Vornal in Sen'jin Village. He is getting old and needs alchemy items to boost his magic. He wants you to get him 4 intact Makrura Eyes and 8 vials of Crawler Mucus....yuck! You will find the Makrura, levels 6 and 7, and Crawlers, level 5-8, on the beach and in the water just south of Sen'jin Village. After gathering the items head back to Master Vornal for a reward of 1 silver 75 copper and 10 Really Sticky Glue (renders target unable to move for 10 seconds). The glue is really nice for PvP so you may want to keep it for that if you go to a battleground.

Minshina's Skull

You get this quest from Master Gadrin in Sen'jin Village. His brother was taken by Zalazane and killed but his spirit was trapped in his skull by Zalazane and now you have to rescue it. Rescuing a skull...hmmmmm. The skull is on a little hill in the southeast area of the largest island south of Sen'jin. Zalazane walks up and down this hill so going up the front would mean taking him down.

If you don't want or can't take him down just come up the hill from the back. Go around to the south most part of the island near the water and make sure Zalazane is walking down the little hill then you can come up the hill from the back side and click on one of the skulls and be out of there before he comes back. Just make sure your out of his aggro range and you will do fine.

Return Minshina's skull to Master Gadrin for a reward of a Faintly Glowing Skull (Steals 75-100 life target enemy).
Zalazane

Master Gadrin says it's time to take down the boss of the Echo Islands Zalazane. Zalazane, level 10, is in the southeast area of the largest island. The camp he is in has quite a few other trolls so you may want to group with someone if you level 8 or below. You can also go up the hill from behind where Minshina's Skull was and wait for him to walk up the hill. You should not aggro any other trolls this way so it will be a 1 on 1 fight. Note that Zalazane will shrink you to half your normal size reducing your strength and stamina by 4.

You also have to kill 8 Hexed Trolls and 8 Voodoo Trolls both are levels 8 and 9. You can find them on the same island as Zalazane. After you finish return to Master Gadrin for a reward of either Lightweight Boots (Mail, feet, 70 armor) or Veiled Grips (Leather, hands, 33 armor).

Also you can now talk to the Witch Doctor in training Bom'bay (From doctor Bombay in the TV show Bewitched). He can turn you into many things or do other strange stuff to you. Try out all his cures to see what they do.
Carry Your Weight
You get this quest from Furl Scornbrow who is at the top of the tower in Razor Hill. You can get to the tower by walking behind Cook Torka and going in between the tree and the wall then walking north. He will make you a four-slot bag if you gather eight canvas scraps. You can get them from the Kul Tiras Sailors and Marines at Tiragarde Keep. Gather the canvas and return to Furl Scornbrow for a four slot Handmade Leather Bag.

Dark Storms
You get this quest in Razor Hill from Orgnil Soulscar who is standing outside of the bunker. He has found a Burning Blade Warlock named Fizzle Darkstorm, level 12, in Thunder Ridge to the northwest and it's you job to kill him. Head down the west road out of Razor Hill and when you get to the second bonfire on your right go north. After a little ways you will see harpies on your right and a farm to your left. Head to the farm (Tor'Kren Farm). Go to the front door of the farm house then head west. The entrance to Thunder Ridge will be on your right.

Head in and clear out the Thunderlizards, level 9 to 11. Go past the first right hand turn and take the second right hand turn. You will know you're near when you start running into the level 11 Thunderlizards. Fizzle Darkstorm is standing next to the fire in the middle of camp. Clear out the cult members first and try not to agro Fizzle by going along the wall away from him. After you clear them attack Fizzle's Imp first and take it out before going after Fizzle. After you get Fizzle's Claw head back to Razor Hill and Orgnil Soulscar for a reward of Tiger Hide Boots (Leather, feet, 40 armor).

Vanquish The Betrayers
Tiragarde Keep was overrun but now Admiral Proudmoore's reserves are back. You get this quest from Gar'Thok in Razor Hill in the bunker. He wants you to kill 10 Kul Tiras Sailors, 8 Kul Tiras Marines, and Lieutenant Benedict. The keep is south of Razor Hill. You should see the broken tower as you pass the first bonfire on the road south out of Razor Hill. Fight your way past the Kul Tiras Sailors, levels 5 and 6, and Kul Tiras Marines, levels 6 and 7, and into the keep. Go up the stairs and take the left at the hallway. Note that a rare spawn Watch Commander Zalaphil spawns in the keep.

Lieutenant Benedict is level 8 and should have several Marines in the same room with him. After taking him down loot him and you will receive Benedict's Key. Now head back down the hallway and take the path right and go up those stairs. This will lead you to the roof of the keep and to Benedict's Chest. Open it to find an Aged Envelope. It will be in your pack. Right click it to start a quest.

Now head back to Razor Hill and Gar'Thok will give you a reward of 1 Silver 75 Copper.
The Admiral's Orders
You get this quest from right clicking the Aged Envelope in Lieutenant Benedict's Chest. You need to take it to Gar'Thok in Razor Hill. He's in the Bunker on the left as you enter town from the south. He will reward you with another quest...joy!

The Admiral's Orders Part 2
After turning in the Admiral's Orders Gar'Thok will send you to Nazgrel in Orgrimmar. Nazgrel is in Thrall's Chamber. To get there go to the flight master, he's in the tall building behind the bank, and walk across the rope bridge next to him. Take a right and follow the signs to the Valley of Wisdom. On your left you will see a big bonfire and the next sign will point to Thrall's Fortress. Enter it and Nazgrel will be to Thrall's right standing in front of a table. Talk to him and he will give you 1 Silver 75 Copper.

From The Wreckage
This quest pops up just after turning in Vanquish The Betrayers. Gar'Thok wants you to gather 3 Gnomish tools from the wrecked ships near Tiragarde Keep. Head to Tiragarde Keep and just off the beach you will see the wrecked ships. You will have to dive down to them and find the little gray Gnomish Toolboxes and click on them to gather the Gnomish tools.

There are some level 6 and 7 Makrura around the ships but they are not much of a problem. I was about to stay far enough away from them to not agro them but if you have to fight them swim to the surface so you don't drown.

After gathering the 3 Gnomish Tools return to Gar'Thok for a reward of either Dirt-Trodden Boots (Cloth, feet, 10 armor), or Sandrunner Wristguards (Leather, wrist, 20 armor), or Wide Metal Girdle (Mail, waist, 50 armor).

Head west just past the first bonfire then take a left to the hills and you will be in the Razormane Grounds. This first camp will have Quilboars and Scouts.

Head back to the road and the first bonfire then walk west down the road past the second bonfire. The third bonfire will be on your left and on the right side of the road across from it will be a camp with the Dustrunners and Battleguards.

After killing all you need head back to Gar'Thok for a reward of 2 silver 50 copper.

When you reach the sign that says Stranglethorn imported fruits take a right and go down into the Cleft of Shadow.

When you reach the third bonfire on the right hand side of the road you can go up the hill to your left. The hill almost reaches the road at this point. It may seem steep but you can walk right up it.

As you go up it will turn a misty dark red and you will reach a point where you cannot go up any farther. You will have to go to your left and go around the peak. On the other side you will be right next to the cave. Kill all the Burning Blade Cultist, level 9 to 11 and enter the cave and click on the red crystal floating above the fire alter.
