What to do
Fully investigate the Blood Furnace and then report to Force Commander Danath Trollbane at Honor Hold in Hellfire Peninsula.
The quest giver's words
<class>, put together a force to investigate the Blood Furnace inside Hellfire Citadel at once! And that means today, princess!
The magic we have at our disposal indicates that something unnatural is occurring in there. But something more powerful inside is blocking any detailed arcane investigations. It figures!
You can expect heavy resistance - no other mission that we've sent in there has yet to return!
Scout it entirely and then report back to the force commander with what you witness.
Progress
Master Sergeant, report! Have you scouted all of the Blood Furnace yet?
Completion
THEY HAVE A PIT LORD?!
<The force commander looks around at the stares of the others and then lowers his voice to a whisper.>
That seals it. They must be using the blood from this pit lord to create new fel orcs that are somehow not aligned with the Burning Legion. And if they can do this to the brown orcs, they can do it to the green ones too. With all of the new Horde orcs streaming in through the Dark Portal, that's not good!
We must strike at the heart of their military might, and soon!

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 (Hellfire Peninsula), 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.
