This quest is quite irritating, make sure to get the Flame in a Bottle from next to the quest giver after you pick up the quest.

The camp like the quest says is in between Felstone and Dalson's. It contains Hunter and Mage Scarlet Mobs primarily. Pick off the mobs individually as fighting more than one can get bad fast. Keep up a fast pace as they respawn fairly quickly. When all of them are killed burn the tent and place the flag.

Though this quest is very annoying it leads into a chain dealing with the fields in WPL and their cauldrons that give really fast and awesome EXP. Doing the whole chain line is about 70k exp and doable in about an hour. Don't get discouraged by this first quest.

The camp can be found at 40, 53.

Soloed this one as a 53 Affliction lock. Cleared out one side and was able to light the tent and plant the flag. Careful of the Medics. They will heal each other.

Tent located at coords in nullzone's post.

Kommentar von 26092

tent respawned super quick when I was there

Kommentar von 35155

This quest is really great if you have a few people with you especially since the mobs are like 51-54 for the lvl 50s its better to clear this area and then always make sure you have the fire with you.(People forget it sometimes) just don't rush this quest

Kommentar von 43147

Wow, wtf, was just doing this, you can do solo easy at 51-52. Had error which caused me to die ..., but wait, when i come back all the ones I killed respawned. This area has fast respawn rate. And as above said, watch out for the meds healing each other.

Kommentar von Sprea

I had real problems with this quest with my 53 warrior. I wasn't able to kill them fast enough before they respawned.

Finally I cleared out enough on the west side so I could get close enough and torch the tent and plant the banner.

If you're a meele class just use your gun or pull by presence, be careful tho since you might get more than you can handle.

Kommentar von 37721

Doing it rigth now, really hard because they pull each other. I've died 5 times so far, i'm 51 fury war. i would say wait a lvl with this one.

Kommentar von Dvulin

pritty hard, but not impossible...

lvl 52 frost mage. got whiped twice...

a tip for all mages ...
you should attack from east .. sometimes you have to kill 2 "mages" at the same time, they will use arcane missiles ... so you should pull with sheep :) and then it's easy

Kommentar von mattous

After you complete this quest you can then do the following:

All Along the Watchtowers (56g) - https://www.wowhead.com/tbc/quest=5098 (h)
The Scourge Cauldrons (53) - https://www.wowhead.com/tbc/quest=5228 - (h)

Easycakes as a 57 Shaman =D

You'll need lots of spell interuption because of the Arcane bolt thing. Its pwnage.

Kommentar von 63938

It was easy with 51 undead priest.

Actually I did not challenged them. They've killed theirselves! I controlled one of them with mind control one by one!!

Kommentar von Jadesinx

I had the hardest time here as a 50 paladin.
The invokers are hard as hell...I wiped by them like 5-6 times. XD

Kommentar von 52070

just to let you know... you dont have to burn the tent, all you need to do is plant the flag and the quest is done!

why do I know? because i forgot to pick up the damn flame in a bottle, so i thought i might just plant the flag first... and what do you know? quest completes!

Kommentar von 76172

The coords are right. I soloed it as a 50 shaman. No big problem. Only the Invokers was a bit annoying channeling Arcane Missiles. Just keep Lightning Shield up and keep Earth Shocking them =)

Kommentar von 76172

oh, and one more thing. You don't have to kill EVERYONE to set the tent on fire. The two first guys I killed spawned after I had killed the rest. They were a bit far away so I just went in and put the tent on fire. Piece of cake.

Kommentar von 67073

As a 50 BM hunter i had no problem, just made sure i pulled single or double targets and frost trapped one.

Kommentar von denza

I soloed as 52 rogue. Pull - kill - bandage - pull - kill - bandage... But have to be very-very quick to kill 'em all.

Kommentar von 88186

I was able top just barely complete this quest at level 50 and a couple of points on this that were able to make it possible for me to finish. First off, setting the tent on fire can be done while mobs are beating on you. I had one mob shooting arrows at me and was still able to set fire to the tent. It is treated the same as a spell meter and would just slow down when I got hit. Also, you have to both set the tent on fire and plant the banner, but not at the same time. I burned the ten, was murdered by a medic (oh, the irony) and was able to come back and plant the banner a bit behind the respawned tent and got the completed message. Hope that helps anyone who might be a little too low to be able to sneak in and complete quest.

Kommentar von 88582

this quest sucks. reaaaaaally bad.

Kommentar von bleakraven

Did it fast with a 51 balance druid...

Hibernate the dogs, root the hunters, dot them and spam them with wrath and/or starfire ^^

For the medics and mages i rooted them, doted and casted force of nature so it would delay their spells a bit ^^

Flag and bottle have a nice range so i only cleared half a side of the tent ^^ good luck <3

Kommentar von 21986

This quest is pretty bad. The mobs spawn very fast, they are close enough to aggro the neighboring mobs, and they run when low on health. Oh yea, and if you die most or all of the mobs will respawn by the time you get back from your annoying ghost run. Oh yea, and melee types will have a lot of fun pulling the casters from range.

Kommentar von 44284

heh, here is a trick if you are doing this on an alt.

Park your alt outside of the area with the tent. Log out. Bring in your 70. Kill everyone. Quickly log into your alt. Destroy the tent and plant the banner. Go home.

Kommentar von 65622

Yellow at lvl 54, yeah right. As a rogue this is practically impossible, even trying to pull long range. The mobs have an aggro radius the size of China.

Kommentar von adelaide

the Flame in a Bottle is in a BOX next to the quest givers.

Kommentar von adelaide

56 shadow priest...completed in less than 2 minutes. clear out the northwest side...don't need to get too close. burned it down and planted the flag right after another. done. EASY quest. i thought it'd be a lot harder after i read all the complaining on here.

Kommentar von Kowalski

After patch 2.3, 7600XP @ lvl 54

Kommentar von Rasztra

Overall, a very difficult quest. Perhaps the most difficult in the game (relative to level and Blizzard's expectations).

- Casters' Arcane Missiles are very high damage to take in.
- Hunters have pets to deal with.
- Medics can heal themselves and others.
- Mobs are bunched together, so pulling often results in aggro-ing several and running for your life.
- VERY fast respawn timers.
- Cannot plant flag in combat.

I completed the quest as a well-geared, level 51 pom-pyro mage without dying (although I ran for my life several times). Here's how I did it:

1) Make sure to take the Fire in a Bottle from behind the quest giver before you leave!
2) Use any means necessary to get to the tent and set it ablaze (by right-clicking it). You can do this in combat, and damage only slows the process down (it does not stop you from setting it on fire). I simply pulled a side towards me, casted frost nova, and ran in and set it on fire (while getting hit slightly). Then I ran for my life.
3) Approach the camp from the north, killing as fast as you can. The tent will respawn from being on fire, but don't worry about it. Keep killing until you can stand right next to the dirt patch near the tent without being in combat.
4) Use the tent given to you by the quest giver, and run for your life again.

Kommentar von 92117

This quest is NOT hard if you are a ranged class.

Pull from far away.
If you do pull more than one, kill medics first, then invokers, then hunters.
You can stand on the table and burn the tent, you dont have to kill the mobs behing the tent.

Did this without breaking a sweat as a level 52 fire mage.

Kommentar von tashima

easy peasy, one run, pulled all singles, no repawns, done in 5 minutes as a 51 hunter

Kommentar von Chavslag

When I went to do this q another group had just burnt the tent as I arrived. Turns out that as long as you plant the flag while there's no tent, then the q counts as completed.

No fighting of annoying mobs for me :)

Kommentar von 137972

Some helpful hints if your paladin, or partying with one. Try to pull one mob at a time, and judge seal of justice to prevent the mob from running and aggroing more enemies. When fighting the mages, I assume our arcane defense is pretty bad, so after judging justice, don't use seal of light to heal yourself, they will out damage it. Instead, spam concentration and use seal of righteousness. Kill before being killed is the main princapal for this quest.

Kommentar von jeffreytsg

I am a lvl 60 resto druid - just did this quest in about 4 minutes.

Approach from the NW, by the tree. Kill the closest two MOBs, and that should allow you to get to the tent and plant the banner.

I was in Cat form, Pounce, Shred, Rake/Claw and then FerBite. Popped out to cast Barkskin, Moonfire and was done.

Granted I am lvl 60

Just be ready to run.

Kommentar von 63794

Please note that this quest is not possible as a 53 combat-swords rogue.

Kommentar von 115430

Sadly this quest requires you read the quest text and pick up the bottle of flames before going to do the quest.

Naturally I cleared all around the tent and had to run back to the NPC for the flames :D

Kommentar von bernlin2000

Was doing fine with a 52 druid...and then I remembered I didn't have the flame in the bottle, because for some reason Blizzard decided not to give it to you when u get the quest! Overall, this is a pretty lame quest, it can be quick but if you can find some ppl to help its much easier.

Kommentar von 162488

I have finished it with a 52 warlock. not very hard for a warlock. to burn the tent you need to come from behind the tent... kill two mobs and then send your void to argo all of them... while they are all busy killing your void, burn the tent...

to place the flag... its easier from front... kill three mobs in front and you dont have to be too close to place the flag. :)

Kommentar von Glows

When on my 53 priest I tried to pull a mage, he was "chained" with a hunter, I couldn't pull one smite off because the mage's arc. missiles hit me like every other 0.3 seconds, and the hunters arrows, and dogs didin't help either.
Kthxbai...

Kommentar von Thottbot

Try something more like 40, 53. You have to go a fair distance behind the barn.

Kommentar von Thottbot

The Flames in the bottle is just beside ti the Quest giver and the camp i at 40,53

Kommentar von Thottbot

Ok so you get the quest over at the Argent dawn camp in Tristfall glades, dont forget to pick up the Fire in a bottle next to quest giver...Now in between the First 2 cauldron areas, On left, lies a camp, go around back of it, and kill one at a time from there...Remmy they are humans, so they will run once they get close to dying (Kinda like alliance) then burn the tent, next plant the flag...you can not plant the flag unless you burn the tent...Finally did it for the faction as a lvl 60...I dont see anyone soloing it lesser than lvl 53.

Good luck all

Kommentar von Thottbot

If doing this in a party everyone has to burn tent and plant the pole. For us the tent respawned as soon as someone planted the pole. Quest would not complete with another party member planting pole.

Kommentar von Thottbot

When you get this quest, grab the bottle from the crate next to the guy who is giving quest.

The object is the little camp about 40,53. Good luck with the mobs, burn down the tent using the bottle place the banner and your done.

Mobs are hard. I'm 54 warrior and getting my booty kicked.

Kommentar von Thottbot

This quest blows.

1-The mobs spawn quickly, you need to kill at least 1/4th of them.

2- The Invokers have been buffed to stop the CFGs. Their missiles now HURT a lot.

3- IMPORTANT: You need to BURN the tent, THEN plant the flag. If the tent respawns, you have to go back to the questgiver to get another bottle of flames.

MEH!

Kommentar von Thottbot

Whoever says this quest is easy its not, the respawn rate is way to quick you get 3 killed and 2 more pop up. Location is at 40.53. I would recommend taking a small group with you to complete it.

Kommentar von Thottbot

So I tried this as a 53 lock thinking I can sac and howl of terror my way in but no, the tent won't burn if you are in combat.

Watch your pulls - I pulled one and it agroed a ton of others and I got my ass handed to me.

Haven't done this yet - will try again when I am higher :(

Kommentar von Thottbot

This quest isn't that difficult, just be careful how you pull and if you screw up it's not hard to run. If you're a priest use mind soothe a lot.

Kommentar von Thottbot

its easier as a rogue, but still sucks, they respawn pretty fast, so if you die, you have to start over

Kommentar von Thottbot

Do you think a lv 50 hunter could do it in beast mastery in talents?

Kommentar von Thottbot

Yeah i did it at around that lvl...maybe even 1 lvl above you and im MM hunter. even then it wasnt that hard just pulled them out a few at a time.

Kommentar von Thottbot

its lamest q ever.
why? first respqwn its freaking fast. mages cant even take down 6 of them, that one is agan there.
and tent, as soon as u burn it, must place banner . lame and stupid q. but without this piece of crap, u cant do others from bulwark. arrr, damned.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Impossible to solo as lvl 50 Mage.

I kill 2 without drinking / taking health.

That's not enough .. :/ (Because they will spawn very fast.)

and they agro very easily, so be careful.

40,53.

Well, need my friend to help me with it. (:

sleep time, @#$%ing wow!

Kommentar von Thottbot

Forgot to pick up the firewater from quest giver, noticed that only when i clicked the tent. Planted the banner anyway and ta-daa, quest done. Returned to bulwark and turned in :) Soloed as 54 hunter.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Solo'd this quest with ease at lvl 52 with felguard

its best to start at the east side in the back of the camp and avoid the hound masters

Kommentar von Thottbot

The easiest way to do this for me was to work my way around the back from the side closest to the felstone field. Pick off the medics on the west side of the camp. The Invokers might be a problem due to their powerful arcane missles. Once you burn down the tent set the flag, note that you don't have to be directly on top of the tent. Watch out for respawns and make sure you have any necessary items such as potions, band-aids, food/drink.

I solo'ed this quest as a level 50 affliction warlock using mostly level 33-39 gear.

For locks, keep on a soulstone just in case and make sure you have a healthstone avaiable. I used succubus in this for crowd control and as a mana battery with dark pact. If you pull too much, seduce is a life saver for crowd control. Don't fear, the crowds are a bit conjested so fearing may cause you to pull 2-3 mobs on you. Medics are the easiest to pull because unlike the others, they run right at you. Invokers are harder to pull because they shoot you from where they are. Time your attacks carefully. Also, soulfire is a good opening move for this area, and deathcoil is a good way to boost health as a finisher.

Kommentar von Thottbot

THE TENT IS @ 40,51 good hunt

Kommentar von Thottbot

Damn i forgot the damn flame in a bottle and i cleard the camp with a 50 hunter damn that sucks badly

Kommentar von Thottbot

As others have said, you want to go to 40,52 and pick up the Flame in a Bottle first from a box in The Bulwark beside the quest giver.

I can see how classes who have minions/pets might find this quest relatively easy. But my lvl 56 Protection Paladin found it impossible.

Blood Elf Paladins can use Mana Tap to pull. However, the mobs are tightly packed together, so I was dealing with several Scarlet Invokers at once. I'm still using a lvl 42 Axe as I can't find anything better, so my DPS is not great.

I used Blessing of Might instead of Blessing of Sanctuary to up my DPS. I tried using Hammer of Justice on one Invoker, but that only lasts 6 seconds, with a 60-second cooldown, Arcane Torrent only lasts 2 seconds, and with my Axe it was taking me a lot longer than my cooldowns to kill one Invoker. So when they weren't stunned/silenced, they'd throw out Arcane Missiles, which is 160-ish damage x 3, x 2 or 3 Invokers. That's 1,000-1,400 damage every few seconds. I just couldn't Seal of Light back the health they were taking from me vs. the time it was taking to kill one.

And if you're unlucky enough to have a Scarlet Medic in the party, you either try to kill the Medic, while the Invokers are nuking you with Arcane Missiles, or try to kill an Invoker, while the Medic is healing it. Right.

A very hard quest for a Protection Paladin. As with all casters, they don't hit you, so all the Protection Paladin tricks - Blessing of Sanctuary, Retribution Aura, Holy Shield, shield spike - don't work here.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Couldn't do this on a 53 pally either. Obviously it wasn't made for pallys. What sucked is everyones stuck up at lvl 60, which is usually the only people you can find in WP. So... You get screwd on this quest because you get no help and your a pally. Lovely.

Kommentar von Thottbot

invokers damage crazy be careful

Kommentar von Thottbot

I solo'd this and this is what i did I went to the above posters coords 40,53 and went to the back of the tent. I picked off 2 scarlet invokers and 4 scarlet medics and then used the blessing to decrease my threat(blessing of salvation) and sneaked up behind the tent lit it up and placed the banner and the quest was completed! i did this quest as a lvl 54 retro pally was super simple to complete! I never even had to heal it was that simple!

What i use to fight them is: seal of the crusader > Judgement > then seal of command > hammer of justice> then judgement again > and to kill em off crusader strike :} !

Just FYI Pallys can pull: to do this use seal of the crusader or seal of command and get just close enough and hit judgement and you just pulled em i do it alooooooooooooooot! The most effective part I feel of pulling for me is figuring out who i can get solo and if i cant get solo and say i feel that i am going to pull two then i heal mana up then pull them and beat the stuffing out of em, its just about playing smart not hard!

Kommentar von Thottbot

soloed as a 52 mage. not a big problem.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Where is this quest located? I got the fire & the quest - just need the location. (I do not use coords)

Kommentar von Thottbot

So, I got the incendaries and found the camp (it's quite far away from the road). It was deserted. No mobs but no bodies either. I ran in and burned down the tent and planted the banner, and then remembered I had seen some of the same type of mobs as at the camp attacking some undead at Felstone Field. It looked like every so often they all go and kill some scourge, leaving the camp deserted. Anyhow, I had this quest done in 5 minutes.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Did this level 50 2 pallys. Took turns to bubble run in and aggro everything while the other one burned and planted the banner.

Worked this out after a couple of deaths as the level 54 mages resist a lot and the respawn time is just too fast.

Kommentar von Thottbot

As a level 56 warrior this quest was stupidly hard. It only took one Invoker to reduce me to < half of my health. Arcane missiles they use do 176 damage x5 in the single cast! My advice to warriors is to hit the tent from behind, draw each one to you with a gun etc and stock up on potions!

40,53

Kommentar von Thottbot

This quest is irritating, but I soloed it as a lvl 50 hunter. I found the best way to go about doing it is to come in from the East and pull the weaker healers one at a time and slay them, and keep doing that till one side of the tent is unguarded, (watch the scarlet hunters). U can burn the tent and plant the flag from reletivly far away, so stay as far as possible. Good Luck!

Kommentar von Thottbot

i hate this quest the healers are so irritating.
i did this as a 52 prot pally and nearly died 3 times i dont suggest doing this quest if u have anger managment issues

Kommentar von Thottbot

sad, level 52 war, decent gear i guess? plate from ZF and ice barbed spear arms spec'd, killed about 6 before i got repops all single pulls but one, and that was a hunter/medic combo, just burned medic and took my time on hunter/pet, all in all easy quest, did tent than planted flag, took me 4 minutes, GOOD LUCK =)

PS< to all those that said its impossible pre 54 etc etc, im a war, and it was cake, not sure what happened when u went, but the invokers do nuke hard and fast, but one on one there cake.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Remember to get the Flame in a Bottle from a box next to the quest giver.

this is key, forgot about it first time around :P

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I wish I could take credit for this, but I can't....

You will need 2 people....

Sneak to the back of the camp. Have your friend mounted. Have him run through the camp.. as soon as he goes, you go and burn the tent. DO NOT TARGET ANY MOB or you can't plant the flag. If your friend is good.. we will survive. I was out of there before the mobs got back. left the same way i got there... out through the back... not one mob hit me.

We (he) healed and I ran aggro on my mount. ....

Kommentar von Allakhazam

The Invokers arcane missles are ungodly, here. Very tight aggro, and they flee like any other Scarlet wuss. Crowd Control is necessary to complete this fairly. It took me longer than it should have, and in the end all I did was clear the backside and set that thing ablaze and bolted. I was determined because the chain quest is a Bob Dylan/Jimi Hendrix song... A good one, might I add. :D

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Tent is at 41, 54.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Loc: 40,53
Soloed Rouge 58
Died three times because aggroed two or three mages that started blasting me with spells.
The tactics are simple at my lvl you don't pickup much aggro so go around pull one by one a kill (apply Crippeling Poison)
Burn the Tent and place the flag. (the torch to burn the Tent is pickedup near the quest giver)
They respawn every 2 minutes or something.
Enjoy.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

First get the bottle with flame in a box next to the npc where you get the quest. then go to 40.53 you'll see a white tent. Shield yourself then freeze those scarlet mobs then quick burn of the tent and place the banner and at last blink and run away

Kommentar von Allakhazam

easy for rogue just pull what u can at back. Sap what u need to to get to tent in stealth. Then burn tent, u will be attacked but it doesnt interupt the process. Run and re-stealth. After go back to front by the table and stand and place flag there, once its placed run and stealth.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

If your a hunter, this quest is easy. If your pet's HP is high enough send it to attack the central guy. It will probably aggro all the other guys, so you just run in and burn the tent while your pet gets killed, then run once your done. This may also work for locks depending on the demon you use.

I managed to finish burning the tent right as my pet died, and then I died while running away.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Is this quest bugged, I see no flame in a bottle or selectable box next to the quest giver in Bulwark.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

@ lvl 51 this is impossible. all mobs are either 53/54 (most orange) and as soon as you start burning (even after sapping one and blinding one and popping evasion) they will pwn your face with arcane missiles WAY Before you can get the cast (burning the tent) off. died twice. so only try this if youre at LEAST lvl 52, not even sure then

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Edit: Double Post >.<

Oh well, here are more information on how I completed this. I used Hit and Run on most of my kills. Pull one, kill and then run away if there are adds. For the Invokers, I Mind Controlled them and let their friends kill him/her. Then run away again.

I also discovered that if you Mind Control a Medic, he has a skill that will increase your Arcane Resistance by 78 for 1 hour. Very useful in fighting the Invokers.

Easily burnt the tent but when i tried to plant the flag kept saying needed forward base camp, obviously i'm missing something, any advice would be great.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

some co-ords would be &*!@ing nice

Kommentar von Allakhazam

The Invokers alone will kill you. I came extremely close, but I swear the invokers are imune to dispell, they resisted it three times. Get someone to help you with it, because it is FEINDISH. The quests after this are much easier and more fun, and the chain ends with some cool rewards, but this prerequest is a monster. Look at the ally prerequest, it is SO much easier. I don't see why Blizzard nerfed all the instances in that patch but couldn't reduce some of the mobs and there hard hitting abilities in cases where nerfing was acutally needed.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Kinda buggy, I got the quest, but I didnt get any Scourge Banner :<

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Go from the north, kill 2 mobs, and you can flame the tent easily..at level 54 I didnt need to kill anymore people..

I soloed this as a 54, without serious problems, by simply killing the bare minimum to do the quest.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

i figured out how my level 52 shadow spec preist did it.. lotof hit and run for me..
i woudl circle the camp and Mind control them.. preferably invokers over medics.. ( though if you MC a medic.. make SURE to have that medic cast arcane resistance upon you!) once i had an invoker MCed..i woudl sic him on a hunter REAL fast..
when the critter died.. if there was onl 2 thigns left..i fought them.. if more..i ran...
rince and repeat..
PS.. if somehting you MC kills something..you get the spirit tap eheheh

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I am not sure, but I think you all been ssmoking something :)
After reading all this posts I almost gave up at lvl 50 hunter to even check that place out. Then I went there I spent not more than 5 min and completed the quest. My pet died once after I pulled Hunter with pet and Invoker at the same time plus my pet aggro lvl 53 spider at the same time, but I managed to kill Invoker right after my pet died and FD. Then went back killed that same hunter his pet and medic. After that just burned tent and planted banner standing as far as possible from the rest of the mobs. Granted, being hunter you can solo quests easier than most other classes. I have four lvl 70 (Warrior, Rogue, Paly and Mage), and dont think I could of done that at lvl 50 with eather one of them.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Coords are good.

Solo'd as a lvl 51 Hunter. Pulled too many when I tried my normal tactics and had to feign. Went to the back, pulled out one at a time carefully and then burned tent and planted flag. Easy.

Course I am not gonna mention that I wasn't smart enough to read the quest and got all the way to the tent and tried to burn it and didn't have the flame in a bottle. So I ran all the way back to the quest giver and clicked on the crate to get it. I ran out to the tent again and killed the respawns and then got to the tent and still had no flame in a bottle. (my inventory was full when I tried to pick it up before and I must have been on crack because I didn't notice) So back to the crate I went and got the bottle finally. Ran out, killed the mobs to clear a path for the 3rd time and then finally completed the quest. sheesh

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I'd like to be the first to say, this is the dumbest ****ing quest ever. Nothing better than seeing the yellow "175" over ur icon about 18 times a freaking second... specially after u help someone else do the quest, only to have him ****ing ditch you when its your turn, leaving you there to find for urself against lvl 54 non elite mobs worth of single handedly taking down Thrall himself -_-

Quest = Dropped

Kommentar von Allakhazam

This quest was extremely hard for my level 51 priest. Good thing I learned some tricks early on.

If I am not mistaken, there should be 8 mobs around the tent forming a circle, 1 infront of the tent and 1 on the side. I cleared the 3 mobs on the southern portion of that place. I then put a bubble and run to the left side of the tent and used the "Flame in a Bottle" then ran away. The casting is not interruptable. I returned to the portion that I cleared and used "Soothe Mind" on those that will clearly notice my presence. I moved close enough that I can use the "Sourge Banner" and presto Objective Complete.

Took me 20+ deaths to discover this though. I almost gave up. >.<

those guys respawn so fast, if you have killed 3 on normal speed the first one has respawned
you certainly need to bring some friends

I accepted this quest from the guy in the Bulwark, i recieved the banner but the crate next to him is not selectable. I have tried dropping the quest and trying again but still nothing, aometimes i dont even recieve the banner!

I need the key desperately, any ideas of how to get this done with no flame?

thanks for your time

I just successfully got this quest, but I can't pick up Flame in a Bottle anywhere near the quest giver - anyone have any ideas?

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I had it easy, 2 other players had already cleared the camp and burned the tent so all I did was plant my banner and leave. Shows that you don't need to burn the tent, only plant the banner while the tent is down.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

dumb me, I forgot to get it in the crate next to the quest giver.

Feral druid. I used feral faerie fire to pull. So I wouldn't have to fight multiple mobs for the most part. Occasionally I'd have to fight 2. Fast respawns. I actually had to drink real fast to replenish mana. And just be quick.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

They must have changed this, because i was wondering by it, and someone was already doing it, so i lent him a hand. After the area was clear, he burned the tent, planted the flag. I then waiting about 1 minute for the tent to pop back up, burned it down, planted the flag, no respawns at all.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Tried at first as a lvl 54 lock and found it nearly impossible so gave up quite fast. I was grinding AD rep at level 57 when a level 52 rogue asked for help, I agreed and gathered the quest and necessary items and we completed the quest very easily. It took no less then 4 minutes (1 minute for me getting the quest and 1 minute for the rogue acquiring the forgotten 'flame in a bottle' ;])

THE QUESTGIVER DOES NOT GIVE YOU THE BOTTLE OF FLAMES

Sorry, just wanted to make sure people saw that ;) You have to pick it up from the box next to him. I cleared the camp only to realize that neither me nor my husband had the bottle so we could not burn down tent. So we went back, got bottle, picked up a stray person to help and cleared camp again then burned down tent. Then the @#&! stray person didn't plant his flag in time because he was too busy going "Durr, I can't burn down tent" even though it was burning before his eyes. So, the moral of the story is:

1. Pick up the bottle from the box next to the questgiver.
2. Don't pickup strays
3. If you ignore (2), then make sure the strays fully understand the quest objectives so that you don't have to clear the damn camp a third time.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

This is mainly for the rogues out there but here's how I did it.

First, it can be done in two parts, you can set the fire, and then die, and then set the banner if necessary.

BE SURE TO PUT CRIPPLING POISON ON! In fact, whenever fighting and you see "xxx attempts to run away in fear!" rub that poison on your weapon ASAP, it will save you a lot of frustration.

I approached from the back, stealthed of course. If you attack from the back right side you should only have to kill 3 mobs +2 hunters' dogs to get close enough (BTW to be within range you just have to be off of the grass and onto the dirt-looking ground.) So aim for one of the medics, move in and kill em fast. Then Go for one of the hunters dogs, and kite the hunter back. The third one will be the hunter standing directly in front of the tent-- same deal. With those 3 cleared you should be able to inch yourself into the corner of the camp and place the items.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

This quest is ridiculously hard to solo, even at the quest level of 53.

The invokers do a TON of damage, and if you pull them with a medic, you're basically dead -- either you're taknig tons of damage from the caster and killing the healer, or the healer's healing the caster as he kills you. And all the mobs are runners and are closely spaced. You CAN burn the tent while in combat, but NOT plant the flag, so don't get any bright ideas about fearing mobs out of your way while you complete it.

Add in a repop rate that's so high that if you die on any of the pulls almost the whole thing's respawned by the time you get back, and yeah, it's stupid hard. I managed it (53 priest) through many attempts, eventually ending up with a combo of repops (a lot of medics) that were easy to pull away from the group and solo.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I just finished that quest with 53 lock affliction specs and its not that hard .. just DOT them send WV on them and drainmara or health once they drop to 30% of health hit them curseof raclessnes andthey are down .. the hardest guys are the Medics cause they heal but if you drain ther mana thereis nothing much to do.
40:53 is loc or for the ppl without the cord go beetween first and secound farm to your left and you will find them .. DO NOT , i repeat DO NOT foget the oil fromthe box next to the questgiver!

Kommentar von Allakhazam

1) The tent does not have to still be burned down in order to plant your banner.
There was about 90 minutes between burning and planting in my case.

2) It seems that acceptable locations for the Banner are rather limited.
In my case attempts on one side and the rear of the tent failed while
planting it right out front worked the first try. The failed attempts
were actually closer to the tent than the successful one.

Kommentar von ArxonHavenloft

Be sure to pick up the Flame in a Bottle within the crate next to quest the giver. Then proceed to coords 40,53. Be sure to place flag while the tent has been destroyed. You only get a small window of time to do this or you'll be forced to go pick up another Flame in a Bottle to burn the tent down again.

Kommentar von jfoobar

So if you try this when no one else has recently completed it or no one else is there doing it at the same time, good luck. At full compliment, the tent is surrounded by 16 humanoids and no less than 6 dogs, all packed pretty tightly together. You can peel some of them, but there are at least four plus a dog that are chained together at the front of the tent. It has always annoyed me that this is a gatekeeper quest for key WPL questlines as it is pretty much impossible to solo for anyone at the appropriate level. Even an AOE specced frost mage would get wrecked since every humanoid is ranged, some of them healers.

Kommentar von pindelz

Fun thing about this quest, if you click the tent to burn it right after someone else does, he will get credit and you will lose your flame in a bottle and have to walk back to get a new one.

Kommentar von Draelia

I soloed this Quest with a lvl 53 priest. Wasn't too hard. I killed 2 of the spawns behind the tent and put Mind Soothe on the three closest ones. Got close enough behind the tent to burn it and placed the banner. So if you are a priest just use Mind Soothe.

Kommentar von LadyJessa

the spawn rate has been nerfed in classic, was able to clear 3, die, run back and do tent

Kommentar von cheheze

You can't use the banner whilst in combat, so don't even think of rushing in.

Kommentar von cheheze

A trick to remember is that mobs don't respawn as quickly if you don't loot them.

Kommentar von Wimbleton

Well that was pretty annoying. That's the fastest respawn rate I can remember of any recent quest in the past 15 years. OK, maybe there was one other....

I found with my 56 hunter that I could just circle the camp, keeping in mind several things: 1) Many or most of the mobs can't be pulled, 2) If you do succeed in pulling one, he/she will bring a friend or (in about 1/3 of the cases) two, so you'll almost always be fighting 2-3 mobs at a time, 3) The Invoker casters can kill you (or at least mail wearers) in four shots and several times ignored my pet's aggro, even using Intimidation. Bestial Wrath fixed that but its 2-minute cooldown meant it wasn't as helpful with them as it could have been, 4) Make sure you clear the animal mobs from the area as you might spend some time running away as I did when FD was on cooldown, and

5) Be prepared for the two or three (not solo) mobs to chase you for an extraordinary distance. I think one of them followed me all the way to the Honolulu airport, where a customs agent detained him for not having the right stamps in his passport.

That turned out to be an unexpected benefit, however. Since they almost all run at 10% health or so, the biggest risk is that one or more run back into the camp and aggro all the others if you don't have some kind of stun or similar trick available. If you can get them to chase you away from the camp, that's no longer a problem. Last of all, remember Cheheze's suggestion below - don't loot. The mobs still respawn at an exaggerated rate but that will slow their respawn rate by some amount of time, which might be all the time you need.

Kommentar von Battlescar2112

Another stupid quest from Blizzard that can't be done solo at the level the quest is available. You need to be several levels higher.

Stupid quest. Easily abandoned.

Kommentar von Motopal

Okay, my hints.

1) Don't forget to grab the "Flame in a Bottle" from the crate next to the quest giver. Potentially very frustrating. Don't ask. :-D

2) Yes, not looting will slow the mob re-spawn rate.

3) I find the right side of the tent (facing) the easiest to clear enough to give me access to the tent. I didn't have to get too close before I could use the Flame to burn the tent.

4) The spot I had to stand to place the Banner was in front of the tent near the table. I could NOT place the banner where I had burned the tent. Potentially very frustrating. Don't ask. :-D

5) I found my Stopwatch useful at the end. Run Moto, run!

- Moto

Kommentar von borcar

As others stated the respawn here is insane. On top of the fact that there are 5-9 mobs densely packed all around the tent. As a 58 feral druid tank i got swarmed by casters even trying to pick off mobs with ranged moonfire.

Ended up cheesing it with a guildy. Just have one person mount up and aggro all the mobs and run toward the road while the other runs in to torch the tent and plant the banner. Repeat for the other guy. Even in a group both people need to burn and plant seperately.
