Objective by objective
- Kill or interact with Blackfathom Tide Priestess NPC #4802
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 is more to this naga problem than meets the eye, <class>. It appears that the issue will not be resolved by merely thinning their numbers. To humble them, a more severe impression must be made.
Travel to the northern end of Zoram Strand and enter Blackfathom Deep. Once there, demonstrate to the naga that their presence in this region will no longer be tolerated!
Completion
Excellent!
Let the naga retreat back into the seas where they belong!
Category: Ashenvale.
What you need

By character level

A bonus of your own (a guild perk, a holiday) comes on top.
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.

The chain
This quest stands alone: nothing leads to it and nothing follows it.
Where it starts and ends
- pick up
- turn in
These two markers are the quest giver's and the hand-in's own positions – not where anybody was standing. The recorded positions are further down, under the community data.

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

Same 1 run; mean 9 min 46 s.
Counting every recorded attempt, finished or not.
11 tracked kills, typically 1,925 XP, done around level 25.
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 (Kalimdor - the continent map), 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.
