What to do

Bring a Blackfin Darter to Old Man Barlo. You can find him fishing northeast of Shattrath City by Silmyr Lake.

Objective by objective

The quest's own structured objectives. How many of each you need is set by the game when you accept it, so it is not stored here – the sentence above is the quest's own wording.

The quest giver's words

You probably know all about the golden darter--they're fairly common in the rivers of Terokkar Forest and a delicacy for priests. But here's one you haven't heard of: the blackfin darter.

The fish is notoriously crafty and difficult to catch. You have to pull your line at the last possible second, because they nibble at the bait before they take it.

Drop your line in the rivers of Terokkar and bring me a blackfin darter. Avoid the lakes, as the blackfin only thrive in moving water.

Progress

How's the fishing today, lad?

Completion

Well look at that... you caught a big one! This old man is eating in style tonight.

What players recorded

Everything below this line is a different kind of knowledge from everything above it. Above: what the quest is, the same on every realm. Below: what actually happened when people played it, uploaded by them, with the number of runs printed against every figure. It is an observation, not a fact about the quest.

Nobody has completed this quest with telemetry on yet, so there is no timing. Everything below is drawn straight from the 0 recorded attempts the hub has.

How precise this guide is

Early guide Built from 0 runs by 0 players – low confidence. Every upload of this quest sharpens it: the hotspots tighten, the order and the timings settle, and the parts below unlock as the sample grows.

  • Where to go – pick-up, objectives and hand-in needs one recorded run not yet
  • Typical time and objective order – median and middle half needs 3 completed runs (now 0) not yet
  • Tips – what most players do needs 5 runs (now 0) not yet
  • Where players die – death hotspots on the map needs 5 characters from at least 2 different people (now 0 from 0) not yet

The route

An early route: drawn from the first runs and sharper with every upload. Pick-up, hand-in and the objective hotspots are where the quest is, so they are shown from the first run.

Map coordinates are the addon's own 0–1 zone coordinates (Terokkar Forest), origin top-left, x to the right and y downward. Drag the zone map to pan, ctrl/⌘ + scroll or the buttons to zoom; the grid lines are tenths of the zone.
