What to do
Recover the Blackrock Orc Missive.
Objective by objective
- Collect Blackrock Orc Missive item #58936
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
<The gnomecorder crackles and pops.>
It would appear that the Blackrock orcs have finally wised up. I'm getting reports that they're joining forces with the gnolls and planning an attack. I want details, <name>!
I need you to check out Rethban Caverns, located in the western region of Redridge Canyons. Look for orcs with dark skin. Kill any that you encounter and search their corpses for information.
Solomon, out.
Progress
What have you found out?
Completion
<The gnomecorder buzzes and whirs.>
Just put the missive in the little compartment and I'll read it. I am fluent in orcish.
<You hear a distraught yell in the background.>
It looks like these orcs are here under the direct command of Yowler. That means Yowler must have the orc invasion plan.
Category: Redridge Mountains.

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.
Nobody has completed this quest with telemetry on yet, so there is no timing. Everything below is drawn straight from the 0 recorded attempts the hub has.
How precise this guide is
Early guide Built from 0 runs 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 needs one recorded run not yet
- Typical time and objective order – median and middle half needs 3 completed runs (now 0) not yet
- Tips – what most players do needs 5 runs (now 0) 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

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 (Redridge 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.
