What to do
Give the Rattle of Bones to the Feralas Sentinel at Darkcloud Pinnacle in Thousand Needles.
The quest giver's words
A tauren rattle lays here, exuding supernatural power. Its keepers slain, the artifact is undefended.
Perhaps the sentinel will have some insight into its significance?
Progress
That's the fabled Rattle of Bones, <name>!
Completion
It's true then! What is it doing here, though? And if it's here, that must mean that the writ and the drums are also nearby!
Maybe there's some link between it and the wind serpent that just appeared? I think that I've an idea what that creature is as well.

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 (Thousand Needles), 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.
