This head, as with most quest items shows up to everyone that loots the mob that has the quest. So feel free to share it with your party!

You can begin on your Argent Dawn adventures with this one. When you drop it off, you'll mostly likely be able to pick up to more quests at the Argent Dawn spot in Darnassus.

For those that don't know, building rep with the Argent Dawn will eventually offer you the opportunity to purchase epic items.

for the twinks out there worried about getting too much exp. this quest line gives 5.7k exp

Kommentar von 75452

If your a twink and worried about getting too much exp just pick it up inside the instance, you do not need to have gotten the first quest to get it so you save 2.4k experience.

Kommentar von mauvaisherb

This cash in of this quest gives:

1000 rep with Argent Dawn

Glearly the way to go, if u for some strange reason want to be a lvl 19 Clothie twink... Awsome DPS.. Like the lvl 30 Greater Mystic Wand and even with stats... Not bad for a lvl 18 toon :-D

Some still go for Banshee Rod. With luck, +1 Int / 1 sta or even +1 Spell dam/ heal... Still u need to look for a rare spawn, and the wand DPS blows...

@ lvl 14 Horde can get Arcanist's Wand. Well... Loose 18.7 Wand DPS for 1 int?!?
I vote "No Way"... Espc. if Specialised in Wands as Priest...

^^ U can do so also as Mage, but really... U want da spells to do ya talking... Sooo DON'T.. ;)

Kommentar von Thottbot

He is located above the Alchemists in Darnassus. Have a guard mark the Alchemists Trainer and go to the second floor to find Selgorm

Kommentar von Thottbot

Is the turn-in for this really only 330xp? I was under the impression that quests usually award xp based on level. I really really want the Gravestone Scepter for my 19 priest but want to avoid leveling so I can do some more WSG in the 10-19 bracket. Any info on this would be greatly appreciated.

Kommentar von Thottbot

You get 20 Argent Dawn rep for completing this quest. I was level 60 when I did it, so I have no idea if you get more AD rep at lower levels. I also got 20 Darnassus rep.

(For the clueless: This quest starts inside BFD. In the room with the turtle "boss" near the entrance of the instance, there is a hidden room with a wounded Argent Dawn NPC who gives you this quest. You must swim to get there).

Kommentar von Thottbot

I did this with my 23 druid which lvld to 24 during the instance, i got 3300 xp

Kommentar von Thottbot

It's 3300 exp, so watch out fellow Twinks!

Kommentar von Thottbot

Acutally it's worth doin just for the rep:
+500 Agent Dawn
+500 Darnassus

As lvl60 you can easily solo the whole instance in 30 minutes, so it's well worth the effort :)

Kommentar von Thottbot

Clarification:

Both Horde and Alliance can get this quest.

Alliance can get in Darnassus BUT you don't have to go there first! Here's why --> Basically, the quest in Darnassus is to find the guy. You find him in BFD. The quest is completed. Done, done, done. He already has another quest, to kill the boss Kelris (which leads to your reward of the Gravestone Scepter or Artic Buckler). **Essentially, you do not have to go to Darnassus first.

To find the guy to get the quest (for BOTH Horde and Alliance), whose name is Argent Guard Thaelrid, you have to see where the turtle boss is (Ghamoo-ra) and check the nodes.

Check this link: https://www.wowhead.com/tbc/zone=92 and look at where Thaelrid's name is.

You only need to kill Kelris. You can also have the person running you clear everything prior to Kelris. You just need to be there to loot the head.

(If the rewards were all you wanted, you do not have to light/gear the fires. It sends aves for each fire lit and mobs come. That activates the door for the hydra boss. You can just leave after looting the head)

TURN IN: for Alliance, it's the Argent Dawn person at the Craftsmen Terrance in Darnassus.

For Horde, it's at Elder Rise at Thunderbluff.

Look for yellow dot!

Have fun.

Kommentar von Thottbot

It wont let me hand the quest in and it says that I am unfriendly with argent dawn. is there any way i can get neutral with them again?

Kommentar von Thottbot

I have solo'ed this at Mage Lv40.
If your level is high enough, you can reach at him with about 10 fighting. Not to kill all mobs on the road you go.

The key is "Going 'edge' of the road", when you enter the Twilight NPCs area.

Kommentar von Thottbot

This is a AWSOME for a level 19 twink, just make sure you dont start at level 19.. do it at 18

Kommentar von Thottbot

You can found her @ Thunder Bluff (71, 34)

Kommentar von Thottbot

I found tha guy in craftsman terrace..but he has to exclamtion point over his head..how am i supposed to get this quest? is it a chain?

Kommentar von Thottbot

I got this quest as a share so I'm not sure where the person picked it up, but it says to turn the head of Kelris in to Bashana Runetotem in Thunder Bluff.

Is this a new structure to the quest to make it easier for Horde?

Kommentar von Thottbot

Horde, listen up. Alliance are able to get this quest in the NE city, so none of you horde try to go in there. lol

Alright, both alliance and horde can get this quest inside the BFD instance. Once you reach the turtle boss, you only need to head STRAIGHT north from the location of the boss when you first enter. So if you want to, right when you run into that big room with the turtle in it, just run straight passed him and swim underwater through a underwater cave opening. Inside you should be able to swim up to another little island. On that island is a dying NE which both the alliance and horde can talk to. He will give you this quest to kill kelris.

The quest tells you to turn it in to a NPC in Thunder Bluff for horde. Thats all I know, since I am horde myself.

Hope this helped, Good luck!

Kommentar von Thottbot

Turn In:

Elder Rise ~ Thunderbluff
Horde

Kommentar von Thottbot

Horde Info:

If you talk to Argent Guard Thaelrid in BFD you will be offered the Horde version https://www.wowhead.com/tbc/quest=6561/schurkerei-in-der-tiefschwarzen-grotte instead of this quest.

If you sneak into Darnassus and solve "In Search of Thaelrid" https://www.wowhead.com/tbc/quest=1198/auf-der-suche-nach-thaelrid you will be offered this quest here, too. But you'll get the error message: "This quest is not available for your race".

So you can only do either the Alliance or the Horde quest.

btw.
It seems that "Twilight Falls" https://www.wowhead.com/tbc/quest=1199/schatten-des-hammers is not longer available for Horde players in Darnassus.

Kommentar von Thottbot

If you can't get the quest from him check to see if someone shared it with you already. This happend to me and I ran the instance again just for the wand and got frustrated that i couldnt recieve the quest.. only to realize i had already done the quest just hadn't turned it in yet.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

This quest is recievable by Horde as well with no prereq's as far as I can tell. Stealthed my 31 rogue to this starter and he was more than happy to recieve my assistance.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Yeah the Kelris quest starts in BFD, and is acceptable by HORDE.

You can light the four flames around the statue that Kelris is bowing in front of.
Light them one at a time as each will spawn a grp of mobs.
This opens the door in the room for the final encounter of the instance....the hydra Aku'mai.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

this is a sick twink sheald go get it kick asa in wsg

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I did this witha group the other night and it didnt go to well but i came out of it with a few tips for every one.

First off you gotta get to the npc to get the quest. He is hidden pretty well, you have to go under the water in the room with Ghamoo-ra and the other turtles to find him. after that work your way through the rest of the dungeon till it opens up into ruins, here where it got messy for us.

First off have some one stick to healing while every one else fights. Make sure every one is fighting the same guy as many guys will pile up on you pretty fast but if you take them one at a time the adds will really mean nothing. do this till you get to the building in the back of this area that you can go into. This is where we got fed up with this place...

First you gotta clear the entire inside of the place of any thing that isnt Kelris, this is key cause Kelris is very hard to fight with adds and his AoE sleep effect will end up being the death of the group, i know this for sure casue it was the case with ours... after that just go after Kelris and hope to god you are at enough of a range that you gont get sleeped. you should be able to take him out if he's the only guy left.

other thing to note is the fact that if yuo die you have to go back through the cave again but when you pass through the portal you will be automaticly revived. if to long a time has passed this will respawn but it does take a very long time for this to happen and will be very annoying if it does.

Hope this helps every one and i hope to get back in there to get this guys head!

Suggestion on how to make getting to Kelris a little easier:

When you enter the room with the stairs going down and the concrete walls, there is a Reaver a Warlock with a Voidwalker then futher to the right a Dwarf Loreseeker and a Troll Mage.

Kill these two at a time. Look far to the right, there is a sand ramp down to the water. Kill the one thresher in the water.

Go back to the stairs. Kill the 4 at the bottom of the stairs.

Stairs to the left have 3 and a chest.

Kill 4 further down the staightaway. You do not have to kill all the way to the end platform. That's just if people need more pendants.

Next: The tendency is for the group to go up the stairs to the right and think they can clear the platforms. Not a good idea

Remember the sand ramp to the water?

Everyone should stand there and the mage or a hunter should draw the first target by sniping from there. The AI of the mob is to run down the stairs then come up and around to you. This will allow you to set up so that you can fight in relative safety on the cave side of the stairs.

Rinse, repeat.

After the first platform is clear, you should only have 4 to kill before the big Tauren. This time, they are too far to snipe from the sand ramp so have the puller snipe and jump in the water. Swim to the sand ramp and set up to kill as the mob comes around.

NOW you can go to the room with Kelris.

Note: Check the AI of the mobs - for the most part, if they don't play in the water (eg fendwellers , murlocks, crabs, threshers, etc), they won't follow you into the water. Always check for crocs or sea monsters.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

the guy ur suposed to turn the quest to is in craftsmen terrace, right above the alchemy place. -alliance-

Kommentar von Allakhazam

For the Horde Bashana is at 70,33 on the Elder Rise in Thunder Bluff

Kommentar von Allakhazam

After my group killed Kelris and cleared out his chamber one of us noticed that if you go right next to the big door it changes what the zone/area name is. One of us wondered if the door could be opened (which you can't), when all the sudden a MOB of turtles and other nasties spawned out of nowhere. Two of enemies at least had a name relating to the area by the door but it all happened so quickly I didn't catch the exact name.

I wonder if anybody else has experienced this? I wonder what triggered this as well.

When we did this I was a level 36 warlock, with a level 34 hunter and level 30 paladin. We breezed through the area with no problem except at the very end with the surprise MOB which we all died at.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

as other posts say, this quest IS doable as horde, don't let incorrect information on alla lead you to think you can't get your shield or wand. my WAR got that shield yesturday. Ignore alla, and go talk to NPC inside BFD. hes in bottem left corner from turtle boss. after doing the quest, the turn in is in TB.

extremely good shield, best i could find till lvl33 BoE.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Apparently you need to get a blessing at one of the earlier areas or someone can get crazed and light the torches all at once... with the blessing you should be fine.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

If someone shares the quest with you, you do not need to have done "In Search of Thaelrid" in order to do this one.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I can't find the NPC you turn the quest in to.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Does this quest give any Argent Dawn rep?

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Last night a group of us (lvl 37 druid, lvl 37 priest, lvl 32 priest, and a lvl 31 pally) basically walked through BFD and swept up the whole thing. Then someone lit all the candles and let ALL the Aku'Main beasts and what not out. No less than one minute and we were bones.

Point is: Don't light ALL the candles at once. You won't live.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I've gotten and completed this quest on a level 19. Attain at 25 is wrong..

Kommentar von Allakhazam

No one has asked and no one has answered What level do you have to be to get this quest? I went and found out you can get this quest at level 18. Hope that saves you an early trip :)

Kommentar von Allakhazam

dranei warrior looking for darnassus rep for their mount. I'm close under 3000, but not sure where else to get rep. one bfd is unavailable due to a dranei starting area bug. I have this and twighlight falls.

My healing is limited to my racial hot and maybe a pot. can I take this guy down at level 40 with greens equipped? I'll have enough money to buy plate at the ah (depending on what's available).

Kommentar von Allakhazam

from reading the statements above aboout Kelris, I figure i might add this. This quest is available for the horde as well. I was confused reading the briefing ont hsi site for the quest because it is for the alliance and nto the horde, so I re read the briefing for this in my in-game screen and the turn in point is somewhere in Thunder Bluff, like for the alliance it is in Darnassus

Also I did this mission this morning with a lvl 29 mage and didn't have to much trouble until we got into the area with the Twilight's Hammer cultists. We got mobbed by 2 reavers 2 Aqumancers and their elementals and a lorekeeper. I fell first because I was tanking all 7 mobs at once and the mage was toast when i fell. Hehe so the point is, a second tank is never a bad idea, nor is having a priest.

This quest is available to horde as well, its not part of a chain, just pick the quest up from Argent Guard Thaelrid within Blackfathom Deeps after Ghamoo-ra. Completed today as a level 24 preist healing a run.

Kommentar von SirWiki

For everyone on SoD trying to find this quest the npc has been moved (at least for alliance) you now start the quest by speaking to him next to the "Alter of Teleportation" called the "Shrine of Gelihast" it is on the left hand side of the tunnel just before Gelihast.

Kommentar von Aryena

For Season of Discovery, the prequest In Search of Thaelrid doesn't exist anymore. You get directly "Blackfathom Villainy" inside the raid, from Argent Guard Thaelrid (Schurkerei in Blackfathom).

Bringt den Kopf von Lord des Schattenhammers Kelris zu Dämmerungsbehüter Selgorm in Darnassus.

	Kelris Kopf (1)

Beschreibung

Die Kraft hat mich verlassen. Ich benötige Eure Hilfe!

Diese Stätte war einst ein großer Tempel von Elune. Doch das Unglück führte zum Untergang, als die Verderbnis eines Alten Gottes unter der Erde emporwallte und den heiligen Mondbrunnen besudelte.

Aku'mai, die Dienerin der Alten Götter, erhob sich aus den Wassern.

Die Kultisten des Schattenhammerklans haben sich mit den Naga verschworen, um diese Ländereien zu besetzen. Die Kultisten opfern unter Führung von Kelris Unschuldige für Aku'mai, um Macht zu erlangen.

Bitte, erschlagt Kelris und bringt Selgorm in Darnassus seinen Kopf, <Name>.
