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
These two are USELESS! When they first arrived I thought we were saved. Not so! Instead, Dontrag and Utvoch took one look at the mine and concocted some idiotic plan that involved standing here until... until we all died, I guess.
You don't look nearly as useless. How about you lend a hand, friend? I've got dozens of peons, scared out of their gourds, hiding in the Deep Reaches. Find them and get them out!
Progress
Did you find my peons?
Completion
I knew it! You are a hero! If I have anything to do with it, you'll be promoted to legionnaire!

What you need
Nothing: no quest item is handed out and none is required to start.
The reward
No item reward.
- Money
- 22s
- and 19s 80c more at level 90, the level cap, in place of the experience
- Experience
- 3,300
-
at level 32 or lower; less above
By character level
Level Experience Share 24–32 3,300 100% 33 2,650 80% 34 2,000 60% 35 1,300 40% 36 650 20% 37–89 330 10% 90 none 19s 80c more money 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.
The listed figures and the players here disagree, so both are shown rather than one picked.
- Experience: players were paid 10% more than the 3,300 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 2 completed runs. 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 2 runs by 2 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 2) not yet
- Tips – what most players do needs 5 runs (now 2) not yet
- Where players die – death hotspots on the map needs 5 characters from at least 2 different people (now 2 from 2) not yet
Timings
Based on 2 completed runs. Published by the analyser – low confidence.
Same 2 runs; mean 8 min 6 s.
Counting every recorded attempt, finished or not.
0 tracked kills, typically 3,630 XP, done around level 26.
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 (Stonetalon Mountains), 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.
