Open on Wowhead ↗ Suggest a correction

What to do

Deliver the Discordant Rune to Watcher Wazzik at the Dark Portal in the Blasted Lands.

The quest giver's words

I was hunting a demon named Razelikh, when his ogre lieutenant Grol assaulted me. I was caught unaware, and I died... but so did Grol.

Razelikh plans to return to the Blasted Lands and overwhelm the lands with his demons. Even now, he is preparing to summon his legions to eliminate us.

<The demon hunter quickly draws a rune in the air, then hands it to you.>

Deliver this to Wazzik at the Dark Portal, to the southeast. He will guide you. Quickly! We haven't much time!

Progress

Do I know you, good <race>?

Completion

What? LORAMUS?!

Oh blast, keep it down, would ya? If my boss gets word that I worked for Loramus, do you know how quickly I'd be on my rear end?!

<Wazzik takes the rune from you, presses it to his chest, closes his eyes, and nods.>

Well, you weren't lying. Let's get to work.

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: 2,310 experience (median of 1 run), 21s (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 2,100 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.
1 min 31 s median time (accept → turn in) from 1 run

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

1 min 31 s fastest recorded run slowest 1 min 31 s

1 / 1 turned in / attempted nobody abandoned it

Counting every recorded attempt, finished or not.

0.0 deaths per attempt 0 deaths in total

0 tracked kills, typically 2,310 XP, done around level 57.

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 (Blasted Lands), 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.
