Open on Wowhead ↗ Suggest a correction

What to do

Etaruk, camped near the entrance to the Coldrock Quarry, wants you to kill 12 Beryl Treasure Hunters.

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're a welcome sight, <class>. My name is Etaruk, and I used to be a craftsman here at the Coldrock Quarry.

My companions and I were preparing a new set of statues for their last set of rites when we saw those mysterious blue platforms come flying over the plateau.

When they landed, the mages they carried swarmed the quarry, murdering my fellows and plundering the quarry. If we don't stop them, they'll destroy our statues and make off with our artifacts. Will you help me defeat the invaders?

Progress

Have you started ridding the quarry of our enemies?

Completion

Now that these strange mages know that the people of Kaskala and their allies will not give up the quarry so easily, we must maintain our efforts and defeat them completely.

My brothers in Kaskala have also come under attack and will not be able to support us, but with your help, <name>, we can overcome these pillagers.

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.

This guide rests on 1 completed run. That is enough to show where people went and not enough to trust the timings – treat them as one player's evening.

How precise this guide is

Early guide Built from 1 run 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 available
  • Typical time and objective order – median and middle half needs 3 completed runs (now 1) not yet
  • Tips – what most players do needs 5 runs (now 1) 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

Timings

Observed, not a fact about the game: 1 completed run behind the medians, 0 recorded attempts in total.
5 min 23 s median time (accept → turn in) from 1 run

Based on 1 completed run. Published by the analyser – low confidence.

5 min 23 s fastest recorded run slowest 5 min 23 s

Same 1 run; mean 5 min 23 s.

Counting every recorded attempt, finished or not.

0 tracked kills.

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 (Borean Tundra), 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.
