The path to the cave starts at 80, 40 and the cave is at 81, 36. (https://www.wowhead.com/tbc/npc=2573)
I am a warrior and I had little trouble, they run far away and pull a lot of guys so for me I hit them with hamstring so it slows them down.

Comentario de Ormriss

If you never PvP, the magic-using kobolds in this cave can demonstrate why warriors aren't too fond of fighting mages.

Watch for patrols. The magic users have both static spawn points where they simply walk around a few steps as well as much longer patrol routes. My level 37 warrior died twice thanks to fighting two frostbolting kobolds.

If you are a miner, also grab all the Lesser Bloodstone Ore you can mine for the "Favor for Krazek" quest (https://www.wowhead.com/tbc/quest=627) you will need a lot of 4 for the quest.
I have also made a bit of gold farming this ore and putting lots of 4 in the AH in Booty Bay for 3g a lot.

Comentario de 5909

These Kobolds are in the North East Corner of Arathi and are near the HORDE Outpost Hammerfall. Be on the lookout if your alliance for Gankers. Easy to complete once your there just be aware of your surroundings.

Comentario de brianjz

The Irisdescent Shards are on an upper level of the Kobold cave. Just right-click to finish the quest.

Comentario de 16419

To get to the Shards first time hug the left hand wall of the cave all the way down

Comentario de 35807

Location to start finding Kobolds

Comentario de 37128

This quest is really annoying to solo. But as a 36 lock, I did *OK* as soon as I discovered Curse of Recklessness, I managed not aggroing more since they don't run all over the place. XD

Comentario de 40724

I completed this as a 33 Rogue with not too much trouble. For those who can't follow coords because they have no idea what they mean (like me) the kobolds are to the east of Hammerfall in the hills.

Comentario de 40724

ok, nvm, I thought I completed it, can anyone tell me how to get to the iridescant shards?

Comentario de 41329

i finish the quest the princess trapped where i have to go the crystalls? please!!!

Comentario de frenky98

If you are a paladin just use the Seal of Justice throw it befor they run and that will keep them with you and do not pull more kobols its easy.

Comentario de 45595

This quest can be started by finding the Shards of Myzrael at 62,33.

The cave is at Drywhisker Gorge (82,36).

You hand these up at 84,30 inside the cave.

Comentario de 43758

As stated above: The path to the cave starts at 80, 40 and the entrance to the cave is at 81, 36. This quest has a great drop rate. Collect 6 before entering the cave. Once inside you will notice a 3 way fork (check your mini map). The right side will lead to a dead end with a drop off into the middle path but you may find a cest just before the drop. The left path & middle path ways meet a few yards in. If you look up on the left where they meet, you will notice the "Iridescent Shards" on top of a cliff. You will need to continue up the path away from it to the right to reach it. Just follow your mini map and you shouldn't have any trouble. Also found another chest on the way to the Shards. Highest level mob found: 38
Easy to single pull and solo as a 35 Human Mage.

Additional Information - lvl 40 Rare - Geomancer Flintdagger roams this cave. https://www.wowhead.com/tbc/npc=2609#00Rzc

Comentario de 56156

Cheaters...want an easier way to do this? It's possible to make your own shortcut to this quest once you're in the cave.

Go though the cave just to the point where you see the crystal up on a ledge. Jump up onto the lighter colored boulder to the left of it, then carefully jump to the right closer to the ledge.

If you place it right, you'll be up on the ledge and circumvent the remaining 20 or so mobs. Easy for a mage or rogue, but I did it as a Disc Priest, so anyone can :)

Comentario de 66958

Maybe it's just me, but the drop rate for the motes is terrible. It took me ages to get all 12.

Comentario de rsremco

This qeust whas easy for me on lvl 36 (hunter)
the cave whas easy to find for me....
But I didn't know that the end of the qeust, is in the cave.
you must complete qeust in the cave

Comentario de 66513

Anyone without the mod for co-ordinates, look for a path that leads straight from the ditch next to Hammerfall and right into the mountain. Follow that, it should be south of the actual entrance.

Comentario de CoachZ

Very hard for me as a 36 Rogue. The respawn rate on the Kobolds is not a very fair one, and they do run away, quite quickly, and quite early, and they run directly into another group of Kobolds, thus aggroing multiple mobs.

Very frustrating.

Comentario de 61828

Alrite itz easy im a druid lv36 and im feral and all u need 2 do is look 4 the cave and a lot of the creatures in the hills and then go in the cave and look 4 the the crystal tht looks like th other crystal tht u got ok

Comentario de 55286

This has to be one of the stupidest places to go to cash-in a quest. If you don't have Cartographer your screwed. this is a dumb quest

Comentario de 79918

As a level 34 enh shaman I was able to get through this place all the way until the last pull. It's two mages, three if you catch respawn on top of you, that just make this quest not worth it. Do it later or don't do it at all, this is one orange quest to pass on.

Edit: I went back at 37 and it was very easy. I highly suggest if doing solo to wait, even if you've been clearing out orange quests all along. The respawn and the running just makes it rough.

Comentario de archimonde

mote of myzrael drops by drywhisker digger to...

Comentario de 44233

is a really crappy drop rate....i got abour 15 000 xp from killing the mobbs before i got all 12 shards, and i got about 230 xp for 1 mobb.... 15000 / 230 is 65.217.... so to get 12 shards, i killed about 65 mobbs :/

Comentario de 44899

solo'd as a 34 feral druid was hard as hell i recomend having a buddy with you...but if your set on soloing it kill as many outside the cave as you can to get as many of the motes as you can then clear your way to the crystal thing to turn them in. when entering the cave make your way to the left that is where you will find the crystal

Comentario de 33946

Now gives 3700xp as of patch 2.3

Comentario de 93437

I recently finished this quest with my 35 Druid. The drop rate does seem fairly low and the way the enemies are grouped together in the cave can be quite troublesome, seeing as they often run pulling more.

I found it far easier to kill the mobs outside the cave entrance and just outside of Hammerfall (Horde Base) Then I stealthed in, up to the crystal handed in the quest and ran out.

Comentario de 118828

the drop rate was extremely bad for me.. i got like 10 bars of exp in the time i finished the quest

Comentario de 100435

one of the worst quests ever. pathetic drop rate, lots of runners and ninja pulls, and imho the worthless rare mob in the game hiding out in the cave, making your life a misery. skip it unless you masochistic.

Comentario de Trenk

I soloed this as a lvl 36 warlock draintank spec. It's not too bad, just have your Voidwalker tank and use it's AoE taunt when you get more than one aggro at a time.

Comentario de 146966

Soloed as a level 35 Blood Elf mage. Drop rate was not as terrible as some comments had said, but it's not great. Plan to invest some time getting the motes. Getting to the crystal was not terribly difficult, but the respawn times make dying and retreating a pain. Watch out for patrols, as they have a very long range. The casters weren't tough. Frost Ward and Counterspell saved me. As far as the two mobs near the crystal, I polymorphed one, Counterspelled the other, turned in the quest, not the new one, tried to run, and died, but that's okay, cause I was done in the cave anyway. I did not run into the level 40 mob, which I was thankful for. Not a horrible quest, but there are better.

Comentario de 27640

For those who like good gear, this is one log chain that'll get you nothing at all exept for experience points. Not one reward is gifted the entire time untill the end, and it's a necklace with +8 stam and +8 spirit. By the time you get there you'll be in the mid 40s atleast.

Comentario de MoonLite

the end reward has been buffed since 2.3 patch! (added +11spelldmg/heal)
Pulsating Crystalline Shard

Comentario de Sunlar

This quest is seriously hellish, I died two times doing it, as lv 34 lock.. This happens because at about 30% the Kobolds flee and pull other mobs.. And (while inside the cave) if you're not careful, you'll also get the Surveyors after you, since they aggro from quite a long range (they're casters).

If you are a warlock, remember this:

KEEP CURSE OF RECKLESSNESS HANDY!

Sorry for the caps, but seriously, do not forget using that curse. It prevents mobs from running away and aggroing the whole cave. Another thing you can also do is to just sacrifice your VW by where the rare elite is (https://www.wowhead.com/tbc/npc=2609#00Rzc) and just run to the Shards to finish this quest, and ress at the Spirit Healer. It's much preferrable to try killing all of the mobs in this cave, due to their VERY fast respawn time.

Edit: Spelling.

Comentario de Thottbot

The path to the cave starts at 80,40 and the cave is at 81,36. There's a crystal in the cave that you need to activate which sends you on the next part of the quest.

Comentario de Thottbot

Once you gather the twelve crystals, there is a large floating crystal on one of the higher paths in the cave. The golden wheel will appear on mouse over. Open it and you've turned in the quest and then can get the next in the string.

Does anyone but me think the programmers watched The Dark Crystal one too many times?

Comentario de Thottbot

The start Loc is 62,34 in Arathi Highlands.

You need to click on the hugh crystal there to start the quest.

Comentario de Thottbot

Where you need to go is this: On the way to hammerfall there's a tree to the right of the path. Go right past the tree up a slight incline. There's a bunch of miner guys that you can kill for the emotes. Next, when you're looking for the cave to turn in the quest, you'll see a tree on the mountain near where the first tree was...go behind that tree, and take the path to the left. That'll lead you to the cave.

Comentario de Thottbot

FYI, The path that leads up the hill to the cave that hides the iridescent shard has a tree at its begining. Look for the tree, follow the path, enter the cave, find the shard. Woot Woot

Comentario de Thottbot

the cave is hard to fight with a warrior, but the rewards are cool: found couple of Mithril sources and iron an silver.
What are these blood-things for ? any idea ?

Comentario de Thottbot

dont bother grinding outside, just get 3-4 and go inside the cave.. u get loads on the way

Comentario de Thottbot

only hard part about this quest is getting through the cave. I found it funny that all the people bragging that it is easy at the quest level to solo are jobs that can get in easily (rogues, shamans). So learn2play yourselves and understand that we cant all just waltz on in.

biggest problems: really fast repops, and theres a couple of the blue ones (spellcasters) that march back and forth all over the cave, so frequently its impossible to solo something because you end up having blue ones coming at you (from both sides!)

Comentario de Thottbot

Find the Tree east of Hammerfalls. While facing the tree look to the east. There is a path behind the tree. Follow it up the hillside! G'luck!

Comentario de Thottbot

I am standin on it right now the coords are 84,30

Comentario de Thottbot

I must say the path is a little bit hidden and not easy to see but the coordinates are 80.40. I must say the respawn fast and died 1 time because i agroed 2 mages + 1 normale guy i did the quest at lvl 37,

Comentario de Thottbot

what tree, just kill those Mobs that are around and inside the Cave and collect those 12 pieces of moz. (its not a 100% drop but u'll get eventually) then go inside the cave to <84,31> its a stone u have to talk to...lol

Comentario de Thottbot

Stupidly hidden behind the tree! GAH

Comentario de Thottbot

Anyone else have problems with res in cave?

Comentario de Thottbot

It's fairly good droprate. I almost got 1/2.
The cave isn't hard, I soloe'd it 37 warrior. Died once OUTSIDE the cave (:p) But if you're careful, the rest is piece of cake. Oh, and u must be able to take out 2x38 mobs at the "Crystal" where u deliver the q. It's in the end of the cave (the middle way gives u less fighting). Self healers should be able to do this (yes even 37 pala, which earlyer stated that pala shouldn't do it), cause I remember doing this same quest @ 36 with my pala.

Comentario de Thottbot

did most of this as a 34 war, but i got some help... mostly a tag alone... but i prob couldn't have done it alone

Comentario de Thottbot

i completed the quest easily, u dont have to go in the cave necesarrily, they are everywere outside of the cave... ; i completed quest but have no idea were to turn it in, can some1 give me coordinance?

Comentario de Thottbot

this is the most confusing quest to find ive ever dealt with, these comments did NOT help me, so heres it simplified

You have to kill kolbolds.
its in arathi highlands.
the cords are 77, 41 and its called drywisker gourge.
if you dont have cords, its in the mountains east of hammerfall.
they can also be found scattered along the mountains.
i soloed it as a 35 warrior and didnt die once, but had to run twice when i had a gang up on me.
the drop rate was good, almost great.
good luck!

Comentario de Thottbot

I am a 37 warlock and i complet this quest without dieing once... The path up to the cave is 80.40 the cave intrance is at 82.35 the krystal is at 84.30

Comentario de Thottbot

well go to right lerft of the entrace to Hammerfall is a small hill,cords are 80.40 and go that way killing those littlle annoying things that like to run away in fear,they drop you the Myzrael and keep on walking to the cave that startse at cords 81.36 kill all the way till you get to the princess stone there you return the 12 Myzraels and accept the next q it offers without the fear that you have to return to the cave,cuz you dont have to:P

its really easy if you find someone around that has same q so you have no trouble at all to get inthere;)

Comentario de Thottbot

the guys out side the cave will also give you the items i got done with this quest in about 20 mins if that and got great xp off of it even there is a place to turn the quest in side the cave but if you dont have all the items then you can always go back to where you got it from.

Comentario de Thottbot

The spawn rate for these Kobolds is crazy. I did this as a lvl 37 Druid. Luckily, there was a lvl 37 Hunter inside the cave that was nice enough to help. Anyway, having a partner makes this that much easier.

Comentario de Thottbot

My problem is finding where this quest kicks off.

Where do you get it?

Thanks.

Comentario de Thottbot

The kobies are in dry whisker gorge north east of hammerfall (very top right corner of the zone) and are level 36-38. The pop rate is fairly fast and like many have pointed out they run when they get to approx 20% health.

I soloed this as a level 34 destruction/affliction lock without dying but I can see how many classes would find this hard to solo. I'd reccomend 2 ppl for safety and bring loads of food and water. I found the shard drop rate to be something like one in every 5-6. Once you have all the shards you will find a large crystal at the end of the cave guarded by 3 mages, two were linked. Active the crystal to progress to the next stage.

Tactic for a lock, pull with a dot, send in voidy, when the mob gets to about 25% drop curse of recklessness to stop it running, burst dps to kill it. It was a fairly mana hungry method but meant I never had to fight more than 2 at once the whole time.

Other classes I'd suggest using a snare or hold back any high damage attacks until the guys are about to run. Its a tedious quest but the xp from the grind made it worth it for me.

Comentario de Thottbot

the information was very useful... it didnt take very long at all, maybe 30 minutes tops. I soloed this at lvl 35 and im a hunter. the hard part was trying to find the path to the cave.

Comentario de Thottbot

Thanks to advice above and engineering... It was tricky though, I died right outside the cave because i was taking too long and they started to respawn, so watch out for that,(I was using allot of mana, and I drank after every fight). When fighting them, I would try to save some dps for the last third of the fight to kill them quickly once they ran, also i would hit them with a concussive shot to slow them down. Once inside the cave i released a Compact Harvest Reaper, who helped some with dps. My tiger held agro pretty well (Beast Mastery spec), but about half of his damage was resisted, the Harvest reaper was hitting for full damage I believe (still pretty low, about 40 per hit). Once i made it down the first tunnel, I made a quick left and then went down the small middle tunnel (look at mini map). Straight ahead is the crystal, but it's on a ledge and you cant reach it. I was out of reapers, and i got hit by 4 or 5 of them there. Luckily i died right in front of the ledge. I respawned up on the ledge next to the crystal, and the three lvl 38 casters attacked with frost bolts. I thought the crystal was a channeled opening, because of the wheel icon, but it's not, it's instant. I died wasting time setting frost traps, and trying to rez pet. Next time, I hit my Gnomish Harm Prevention Belt, hit a health pot, threw a big iron bomb (3 second stun) at the 2 close casters, and clicked the stone. You need to click like 3-4 times to complete the quest and get the next quest, so just be ready to click, click, click, (Make sure scrolling quest text is disabled!). Then I jumped down and ran down the small middle hallway, which is a great place to die. You can rez there, with no one around and hearth out (watch out for the pat). WTYM

Comentario de Thottbot

if you've ready ANY of the above comments you probably have a good idea of where this cave is- personally, I followed the mountainside up until I saw a tree, behind a boulder, that half-hid the valley -ish area that goes to the cave. if you come up the mountains from the south it's hard to miss.

there is a great amount of ore in the cave. if you mine, it's paradise. there were two iron nodes, and two or three mithril nodes when I ran through. also, this is the cave that contains Lesser Bloodstone Ore for the quest in Booty Bay from Krazek.

even if you don't have the quest, you can mine the ore- sell it on the Auction House or go get the quest Krazek's Cookery after the fact, from Corporal Kaleb at the Rebel Camp in Stranglethorn vale.

i soloed this EASILY with my 39 mage (just because I hadn't been in the area previously); if you can kill two 37/38's at a time, you'll have no problem. the only problem you might run into is that all the kobolds seem to flee with about 200-300 hp left. make sure you can either stop them from running, or have a ranged attack handy. personally, i kept Fire Blast (any instant cast would do) until they ran, so they didn't get a chance to find a buddy to aggro me.

don't worry about getting enough of the Motes of Myzrael. by the time you get through the cave to the crystal you need, 12 should drop for you.

Comentario de Thottbot

WTF with the lvl 40 at the end?

Comentario de Thottbot

dound the drop rate do be quite low. Ive had worse but I had to kill all of the mobs in the cave before getting 12.

Comentario de Thottbot

i was following a guide and did not understand where this was i was in some space with loads of water elements it was a bit futher west from that, i got confused with taht hope this helps peeps if they follow the same guide

Comentario de Thottbot

some one just sharde the quest with me......so i dont no where to turn it in......can some one tell me?

Comentario de Thottbot

In my opinion, this quest is problematic in two ways. If you are playing on a PvP server, the quest area is in clear sight of a Horde fort, Hammerfall. You'll undoubtedly be attacked by Horde players at some point, so, you're not only fighting the monsters, but quite often Horde players.

The second difficulty has already been mentioned in a previous post. The Kobolds run when they get low and if they run in the direction of another Kobold, now you're fighting two Kobolds and possibly more, depending on how many were in the vicinity the little bugger ran towards. This will ultimately lead to your character taking on more enemy than you bargained for, so make sure that before you begin a fight, you are at full health and mana.

The cave complex itself is easy enough to navigate, but treacherous in the fact that it's filled with Kobolds who run to their buddies. The crystal you need to reach once you have all the motes, is well guarded and, if you're playing solo, will be difficult to get to. Once I had all the motes, I died trying to reach the crystal to apply them. I was so close, that upon returning, I resurrected right next to the crystal and opened it, completing the quest. Then I was jumped by every Kobold in the vicinity and died again. I ended up resurrecting at the graveyard and said farewell to the Kobolds' cave. Mission accomplished. Needless to say, I was glad to be away from that area. Between the difficulty with the Kobolds running to get help from their buddies and the Horde players ganking you at every opportunity, this quest is not easy.

Comentario de Thottbot

The tree they talk of is at 80,40. It has a large boulder near its base.

Once you go west past the tree, the path winds in a left hand C shape to the cave. A few Drywhiskers are back there.

The cave entrance is at 82,36. Drywhiskers line the cave, so dont drop your guard.

In the cave are Lesser Bloodstone and Mithril deposits. After winding through the cave, you find the Incandescent Stone.

Comentario de Thottbot

At last! Soloed with 36 warrior..

the secret to this quest is that dont aggro more than 2 or you're doomed.

Comentario de Thottbot

reminder of shards co-ords 84,30 (just for convenience)

quickest way if you don't mind 'cheating' is run into cave - take smallest (middle) of 3 paths which will lead u to a spot underneath crystals(fight in or just shield and run if u have capability) (also u can see yellow ?-mark where it is yay!)

get killed, run back, now find your way up to them and res right there. you should have long enough to click twice- to complete then accept next part. either run back or pay and res at healer :-P

Comentario de Thottbot

They just run away in fear and ull another one!

Comentario de Thottbot

K i dont know what you all are talking about but for me the drop rate sucked. was getting a crystal like ever 10 kills.

Comentario de Thottbot

the drop rate does suck. pretty random. killed about 10 before i got 1, then i got 3 or 4 in a row, then it was about 1 for every 5 after that. buuut, i've had worse... i got my crystals in about 35 minutes, and i farmed them all outside of the cave... stealthed my way to the crystal inside.

Comentario de Thottbot

This is by far the gayest quest, i died about 6 times - the monsters will chase you until you die.. Best advice is to put this off untill they dont agro you as much.

Comentario de Thottbot

can some one tell me where should i give the quest items?
i did the quest but donno where to finish it.

Comentario de Allakhazam

I have gotten the motes but i cant find where to go after the that. any help would be nice thanks

Comentario de Allakhazam

I did this quest already and went to the next step, yet it put me BACK on this step. Is this a bug? I guess I get free XP for going back to the shard.

Comentario de Allakhazam

my main(level 36) soloed this .. took a while but..

Comentario de Allakhazam

Hi all,

I have just completed The Princess Trapped quest, I entered the cave fought my way the the shard and applied the crystals, however the reply came back and said something to the effect of not all the crystals seemed pure (something like that due to aggro I didn't read it properly) It then showed me part two of the quest but the accept button wasn't active. I then looked in my backpack and I only had 9 crystals not the 12 I started with.

I went back out side killed a load more Kobolds but none of them where dropping crystals. I looked at my quest details and it said 12/12 crystals quest complete I tried to drop the quest but when I picked it up again it still said complete. Not sure what I have missed but it must be something, anybody give me a clue as to what Im supposed to do?

Many thanks

Comentario de Allakhazam

Ok. The famous bolder and tree are at 80,40.
The below mentioned 80,6 is incorrect.
From the boulder, follow the path east, turning north/eastish, then north.
It leads to the cave.
Motes drop from kobolds, either outside or in the cave.
After you have 12 motes as drops, you will have to click
on the Iridescent Shards, which are in the back of the cave.
If you start at the boulder you'll find more then enough kobolds
on the way for your motes to drop.

Soloed as a 33 Hunter. Only had to use Feign Death once, other than that, just step lively and pick your targets with care.

Comentario de Allakhazam

This is an easy quest for a 39 rogue. The main problem in the cave is unexpected adds. So watch out for roaming mobs. Use the following four tips to easily finish this quest:

1) Use Crippling Poison on your main blade. Why? Keeping the kobolds from running for help is more important than killing them quickly. Put Instant Poison III on your offhand blade for faster kills.

2) When there are two mobs near each other, Sap one and kill the other.

3) Use Distract for every mob, then Pickpocket, then Sap or use your opening attack.

4) Remember to kite the mob you're currently fighting into an area of the cave that you've already cleared. This minimizes the risk of adds.

For the "mage-like" surveyors, remember to Kick them right after your initial opening attack (i.e., as soon as they start casting Frostbolt). Once Kicked, they fall very quickly.

You'll probably have to clear the whole cave twice in order to get enough Motes of Myzrael to finish the quest. The upshot is that I got two nice greens in the process. This quest requires a bit of patience...took about 45 minutes. :)

Turn the quest in at the levitating obelisk at the end of the cave. Stealth out of the cave, and you're done!

My 39 Blood Elf Rogue got 3700 XP for finishing the quest.

Comentario de Allakhazam

Its not really hard at all.

I'm a level 38 Pally(Alliance), and in fact it was quite fun. Got killer XP from the little guys, and if you use Seal of Justice along with Judgement, they won't have the ability to run away, which makes things a lot easier. I reccomend going in with strength or intellect boosts, and definitely have your devotion aura enabled. Just kill them to your hearts content, get the shards, then walk all the way to the end of the cave to activate them. I'm lvl 38 and got a good 2k xp from completing the quest!

Comentario de Allakhazam

died twice as 37 druid, just got stupid and caught aggro. little hard to find the cave entrance, just stay close to the mountains east of hammerfall, and look for a tree with a boulder in front. path to the cave is behind the tree.

Comentario de Allakhazam

where are the motes for The Princess Trapped?

Comentario de Allakhazam

I started on the chain without the pendant.. you just have to click on the obelisk in arathi (i was hunting spiders at the time for silk).

Comentario de Allakhazam

I got the pendant at Centaurs of Gelkis in Desolace and i got 220 exp for turning in quest at the crystal of princess in arathi lol wow 220.. now i need motes of mazaeytashtaga whatchamacallits and it says i gotta go to drywhisker something.. i read the past posts and u guys said its behind hammerfall.. i will check tomarrow for now i needa sleep.. but it says i gotta turn in to this guy i never heard of at this place i never heard of...

Comentario de Allakhazam

I soloed this as a 34 rogue last night... Snuck through and then vanished when I completed the quest and got the next one...

Comentario de Allakhazam

I dont know why people are having trouble to find the cave because it is right on the map lol so everyone who asks you where it is just put them on your ignore list

Comentario de Allakhazam

thats some GREAT info..no one cares if u solo it with ur account...all we care is info about the quest...and this is info we all need TY...

Comentario de Allakhazam

You need 12 Motes of Myzrael in order for you to the able to see where to hand the quest in. If your still in the cave when you get the 12th, you'll be able to see where to go on minimap. Drop rate isnt to bad either, took me about 20-25mins as a 38 shaman.

Comentario de Allakhazam

Go to the tree east of Hammerfall. Go up the hill to Drywhisker Gorge. Kill Kobolds. you'll find another tree in a gorge. Go straight then left to the cave. Lots more Kobolds. Collect 12 "Motes of Myzrael" from bodies. Go into the cave go left and you'll find a giant shard. apply the Motes.

Comentario de Allakhazam

So-where are the shards? In the Cave?

cmos Location 80,40 for the tree hiding the path to the cave. Go east from tree up path. The tree is located east of the gates of hammerfall, NOT the cave to the north.

All kobolds in the cave also drop the motes (checked this as I was typing this. Diggers and survs drop it along with the plain kobolds on path to cave)

When you have all 12 the crystal is in the cave (follow the path to the left all the way around)

Hope this helps.

This one is a little more difficult than I expected for a lvl 37 quest. Soloed it with a 35 Tauren Druid. The mobs respawn rather quickly for solo attempts and agro can be very dangerous.

Watch out around the front of the cave. I watched a 38 human rogue run right by two kobolds, attack a third close to the cave, and agro another 3 from the mouth of the cave.

I disagree about keeping to the right in the cave and jumping off the cliff. It's much more comfortable to stick to the left and clear yourself breathing room to pull into rather than dropping down into their midsts. Besides, you don't have to take out the mobs up on that cliff.

The three surveyors at the end are not too difficult as you can pull one and jump behind a wall to break the line of sight then wait for him. The other two are linked as far as I could tell, but use the same pulling method to get in melee quick. Watch out for the roaming surveyor though, it spawns at the crystal and it's not fun to face with 300 hp and mp while waiting for your potions cooldown to finish.

In the end, I got about 2800xp. Hope that helps.

Comentario de Allakhazam

Coordinates for cave entrance from CT Mod are - 82,35

ps. u no need to kill kobolds in mountains to get this motes, there is a lot of cobolds in and near cave

Comentario de Allakhazam

I found this quest REALLY annoying. The aggro from the runners gets ridiculous, at one point I had 5 of them on me.
Other than that though Kobalds are easy to kill, and the cave is fairly easy to find. The drop rate on the Myzreals isn't overly bad either.

Comentario de Allakhazam

Still working in this quest. The shard you use to put the crystals in is in the way back of the cave, on top of the ledge. It's surrounded by 3 Drywhisker Surveyors between the lvl's of 36-38. Kinda hard doing it when @ a lvl 37 shammy and you got 3 guys on your butt.

Comentario de Allakhazam

I have the motes, now where do I take them? Is there another crystal in the cave? I hope that's not the case... I'd hate to go back there.

Comentario de Allakhazam

not 80,20 - how on earth did you get to 80,20?

Comentario de Allakhazam

Mote of Myzrael:
- Drops from all 3 types of Drywhisker kobolds (Drywhisker Kobold, Drywhisker Digger and Drywhisker Surveyor). Kobolds can be found east of Hammerfall (incl. inside the cave).

Mobs:
- Drywhisker Kobolds (melee) are found outside the cave. Allakhazam reports that their drop rate for Mote of Myzrael is the highest of the 3. However these kobolds are very annoying as they start fleeing once they hit 30% hp.
- Drywhisker Digger (melee) found at the start of, and inside the cave. They flee once their hp hits 20%.
- Drywhisker Surveyor are the casters (frost-magic), they're found inside the cave and are also the patrols inside the cave. They flee at 20% hp.

Cave-location:
- East of Hammerfall south-entrance, is a tree with a big rock beneath it. Look from there east again, and you'll see up against the mountains another tree with a big rock beneath it. That's the start of the path first east and the north into the mountains, that leads to the cave-entrance.

Cave:
- Inside the cave you have 3 options, left, straight or right. Straight (and then right) is the "normal" route. If you go left you end up at the same point as straight on, but you have to fight 1 caster/melee duo and 1 melee extra. Going right means you have to jump down at some point, but it's not exactly a short-cut.

Turn-in:
- Inside the cave just keep going. Main path makes a loop from from left to right and in the back left again. At the end is the crystal (Iridescent Shard) where you turn-in this q. Don't forget to accept the follow-up, it's a long way back there :)

I got the necklace from a creature in stranglethorn vale. You can also start Myzrael's quest just by visiting the crystal, the necklace just gives a small amount of exp (think it was 110).

Comentario de Allakhazam

more drywhiskers up in the hills and in the cave. Good green item drops as well. good q. solo lvl 37 mage.

Comentario de Allakhazam

---EDIT! This is super ghey. I soloed the whole thing, except the pats always seem to come right when I get to the damn Iridescent Shard... I said I loved you blizzard, why did you have to bone me? >.< ---

NOTE: Rogues, use crippling poison to make this WAY easier. ; )

*Confirmed loc 80.40*

Done the quest two times now , you can get it by looting the amulet or talking to the crystal shard in arathi highlands. It definately takes some time but if you can manage to get the quest about the Lesser bloodstone ore in Booty bay , thats a 2 in 1. After getting the Myzrael Crystals , you have to talk to the crystal __IN__ the cave of the Whisk kobolds.

Comentario de Allakhazam

I got 2300 XP for this at level 43.

Comentario de Allakhazam

Scarce drywhiskers, they're just behind hammerfall but there's very few of them.

Comentario de Allakhazam

So definatly the drop rate is way better inside of the cave then it is on the outside. on the outside the droprate was 1 item per 10 mobs or so.. well that was what it was for me. 80,40 is where u find the pat to the cave..

Comentario de Allakhazam

You can actually reach the Iridescent Shard from the lower level

start this quest at 62.33 in arathi, just click on the large crystal. no other pre-reqs

Comentario de Allakhazam

The coords are 82,37 for the cave.

Comentario de Allakhazam

Head all the way east towards Hammerfall(Horde). To the east of it along the mountains is Drywhisker Gorge. If you're looking at your map you should be almost directly east of where it says Hammerfall.

Around 80.40 is a big rock and tree heading a little northeast will take you up a ramp towards the cave.

Lvls 35 - 37, spaced pretty far apart but they do run. Very decent drop rate almost every one if not every other. Had 6 BEFORE even going into the cave.

Also drops pretty decent amount of silk and between 50c to 2S.

Comentario de Allakhazam

The Kolbolds are east of Hammerfall.
The cords is around 80.6 for the cave. There's a tree with a bolder in front of it near the hills. You will see a narrow path behind it.
The way I was told, when you look at your main map, look at the last L on Hammerfall. You will see the tree if you stand there looking East.

For me, there was a low drop myzrel, but I managed to get atleast 9 before I went into the cave.

If your Alliance, avoid the horde guards from Hammerfall while you head east.
Make sure you're prepared when you enter the cave, because there are Mage Kolbolds and they can really kick some butt when have more then one on you.

Comentario de Allakhazam

its possible to obtain the q without the prereq

Comentario de Allakhazam

Easy as a lock, curse of recklesness prevents opponents from running, which means no adds aside from the possible patrols. I had to fight two at a time only in the very last batch before the stone.

Comentario de Allakhazam

If you pick up this quest (as I did) in Arathi Highlands (at 62, 33), Drywhisker Gorge begins around 78,40. Be prepared to fight a load of 'casters and miners.

I didn't even know about the pre-req quest; it's not necessary if you pick up this quest in Arathi.

I did it as level 36 Paladin.

Comentario de Allakhazam

The Drywhiskers are pretty rare but there is a trail identified and hidden by a tree just behind Hamerfall that takes you up the mountain to the Draywhisker cave. The goblins inside the cave don't drop motes but those leading up to it do and are a fair spawn rate for one or perhaps even two players.

When you have all the motes you must enter this cave at the top and go to the Shard down the left passage, fighting through more Drywhiskers as you go. Us the cog on the shard for the next part of the quest.

Comentario de Allakhazam

Well, this part isnt too bad. A 34 Warlock and I(34 Warrior) did it. When you go into the cave for the Irredecent stone or whatever its called.. take the first right. Its a bit easier. When you get to the stone you might wanna just click the stone and get the next part of the quest because there were 3 Surveyors there which own ya pretty quick at this level. We just got the next part and ran as far out as possible, then came back and fought the rest of the way out. Hope it helps

Comentario de Allakhazam

many, many hordes. couldn't get through. lvl 35 + lvl 37

Comentario de Allakhazam

It really isnt that hard to find the cave. If you just walk out the back door of hammerfall turn east and walk you cant miss it. Quit being so needy and find the darn cave for yourselves. Soloed as a lvl 37 Warlock. Girls!

Comentario de Allakhazam

I was doing the Foul Magics quest, and an amulet who's name I have just forgotten dropped off one of the Syndicate Assassins I was killing for bloodstone amulets. It has a required level of 30, and +3 or +4 each to stamina and spirit. When you right click on the amulet, you get a quest called the Crystal in the Mountains, or something like that. The crystal is pretty much due east of Hammerfall, and I had an indicator on my minimap that showed me which direction to go in to find it. Once you find the crystal, you right-click on it and you are given this quest. It's red to me at lvl 31, and when I am able to do it, I will try to post more information.

Comentario de Allakhazam

The tree to find is behind the mountain. Meaning it is not straight in you have to go right till you get behind and you will see the tree. Once you find it you will have to fight your way in. Hope this helps!

Comentario de Allakhazam

once you have all the motes, where do you go? What do you do with them?

Comentario de Allakhazam

The item that begins this quest is a necklace called Pendant of Myzrael, with stats that have already been posted by others. I found it on a random centaur while doing quests in Desolace, and decided to make the trip to Arathi in order to finish it up.

Comentario de Allakhazam

dumb kobolds... they start getting adds when they hp lvl turns orange...

So be ready..

Comentario de Allakhazam

where can i finished the quest?

Comentario de Allakhazam

Also, ran into a level 40 Elite in the cave. Took the path straight back and the Elite was to the right.

Comentario de Allakhazam

well being that you guyz all say this quest blows, imkinda curious... so im lvl 37 about, and i just killed the drywhiskers for their myzraels, i got 12 of em. It now says to power up some gem or some crap? what is it talking about, it got the pieces, now what?

Comentario de Allakhazam

This quest begins one of the most enjoyable chain quest in the game so far culminating in defeating a lvl 50+ elite princess who spawn mad numbers of elementals to her defense. This encounter only occurs after you have defeated the wandering elite gaurdian, 43+ elite, and his gaurds and another 40+elite. Fun times!

Comentario de Allakhazam

I'm generally not dense (I promise) but my fiance and I couldn't figure out how to get to the cave. After reading through this, it finally got through my head that the cave is NOT the cave on the map that is directly north of Hammerfall, which for Alliance players is guarded by a bunch of Horde. That cave is an entrance to a battlefield, which is the counterpart to the one in Refuge Point. For whatever reason, the cave that you have to go to doesn't appear on your map.

To get to it, follow everyone's directions. It's easy to find when you realize that you need to go to 80,20 and follow the hidden path east into the mountains.

I found this quest to be VERY easy. I did it on my level 35 lock a few min ago(Date : January 10th, 2008), I just can't find where to finish it.. ^.^ LOL
If your horde you can go right outside of hammerfall to the left as your exiting hammerfall.

(I also have a voidwalker tanking for me so it also could be easyer for me then other classes)

this quest is horrible it takes soooolong to do and isn't worth what you get. not too mention you'll get gangked by horde non stop

Comentario de MrPink12

Abysmal drop rate! The 1st Mote dropped nearly after 10th cobold. Maybe I'm just superb unlucky today, or it's a bug.

upd. I started doing this quest around 20 min before server restart and immediately after restart the drop rate became normal (around 50%)

Comentario de oresteia

after you collect 12 of them, there are 2 mobs protecting it and it's hard to kill them as lvl 36 feral. (They are 2x37 levels and ranged)

Comentario de rubthesleep

coords: 80, 39 behind the tree in the picture ^_^

Comentario de fabflippintastic

Drop rate is pretty bad. Not a lot of mobs in the outside area, recommend going into the cave.

Comentario de Bicycle365

Once in the cave you will have (36) Diggers and (38)Surveyers , sometimes together. Stay left and then the cave curves to the right,and once around the second corner you will see the crystal. Clear the path to it and voila'. I bailed once I could see the crystal the first time as a 35 Priest with marginal gear, multiple mobs was just not going to happen.

Comentario de belfastbiker

Getting the shards is piss easy, but getting to the crystal inside is a bit painful at level 35 mage - The level 38 magic users ignore shields, and break out of sheep so easily.

Comentario de ZhaunRong

Drywhisker Gorge entrance is at 79.9, 40.1 in the rocks a bit south of east from Hammerfall. Cave entrance is up the gorge at 82.4, 35.7, Shortest path to the turn in crystal is straight down the center path, around the loop to the left. Stay on the high ground. There is a small pool of water with a chest near it, the path turns left there and leads to the turn in crystal. L35 Druid, made the quest with a death below the crystal, rez'd on the high ground above, behind a stalactite, changed to invisible cat and got the quest, died ten seconds later. Took the rez sickness. 3700 exp and accepted next quest: Stones of Bonding. All of the critters inside were L37. Someone posted pictures showing the entrance and the crystal at the edge of the cliff.
