Open on Wowhead ↗ Suggest a correction

What to do

Durak wants you to use the Tainted Blood of the Kaldorei on the Forest's Heart.

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

There...

The blood of the fallen Kaldorei is turned. It can now be used on the Forest Heart in Dor'Danil Barrow Den. Doing so will utterly corrupt it.

The sacred relic of the arrogant elves will be turned against them. How poetic!

< Durak laughs cruelly.>

The barrow den lies nestled against the hills to the southeast. One of my imps has laid a blood trail from the entrance to the heart.

Make haste! Kadrak is not likely to be in a patient mood.

Off you go, <class>.

Completion

It is done?

Good work, <name>. That will gradually weaken their forces, as well as their spirit.

The game pays the full figure up to five levels above the quest, then 20 % less for each level more, down to a tenth, and none at the level cap. A bonus of your own (a guild perk, a holiday) comes on top.

Observed, what players here were paid: 1,925 experience (median of 1 run), 14s (median of 1 run).

The listed figures and the players here disagree, so both are shown rather than one picked.

  • Experience: players were paid 10% more than the 1,750 listed. An experience bonus (heirlooms, a guild perk) pays more; a character well above the quest's level earns less.

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 1 player – 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 1 from 1) not yet

Timings

Observed, not a fact about the game: 1 completed run behind the medians, 1 recorded attempt in total.

0 tracked kills, typically 1,925 XP, done around level 24.

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 (Ashenvale), 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.
