What to do

Bring the Tomes of Alterac to Milton Sheaf in Stormwind.

The quest giver's words

I need to spend some time studying the Arm of Gri'lek book you brought me, though I'm sure Milton is eager to get the other recovered books into Stormwind's collection.

Here are the books you gathered from the Ruins of Alterac, packed and catalogued. Take them back to Milton Sheaf in Stormwind and I'm sure he'll be grateful.

Progress

<name>, you've returned! How did your foray into Alterac go? Did you bring anything back with you?

Completion

My oh my! Look at these! I can't believe they survived the ruination of Alterac. And all those ogres too!

Thank you, <name>. Thank you so much! You have helped preserve human knowledge, and you add to the grandeur of the Royal Library of Stormwind.

Category: Stormwind City.

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 (Hillsbrad Foothills), 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.
