His location is (42, 83)

Kommentar von cptmurdok

Great line he says when he has no quests for you:

"This job is definitely not worth sixteen-five a year."

Blizzard employees are pretty satisfied, amirite??

Kommentar von Thottbot

What about his 4 mini-not-quests? Where you have to gather components for adding to the cauldrons to casue a new plague to the scourge? I did all 4 of them, but nothing else opened up. What now?

Kommentar von Thottbot

Did the quests to "close" the cauldrons. Nothing afterwards. In fact, he still offers me the ingreds to close them again.

I don't get it. It seems to be a broken quest.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Yeah, it sucks. So, you get a crapton of EXP from getting the poisons and returning them and that nice random gift of 9300 exp for talking to the guy.

And then these.

Take an hour to farm the ingredients (give an hour or more in case of major ganking) and then go back and get the reagent crap and then spend another ten minutes clearing out the enemies to get...

525 exp and a slight increase with AD rep.

I mean seriously, just go to Sorrow Hill and farm the crap out of the weak as heck ghouls there and get tons of exp and minion's scourgestones. Much better use of your time.

Bad Blizz, bad, no cookie for these quests!

Kommentar von Thottbot

LOL suckers! This is an awesome way to gain Rep with AD, the trick is, you just go do stuff with UD while you carry that arcane seeing thingy.
Then you just bring TONS of runecloth with you.
Buy like 30 of those arcane quickeners and BAM you get alot of xp and more rep then you can grind... and that in just 5 mins for turning in that crappy quest.

Kommentar von Thottbot

550 Exp or so, 25 rep or so about it just grind mats for cleaning and stones about it. kinda werid how farm #1 and #2 gave same rep and exp but harder monsters not really a point to do #2 sept you got mats for it. havent done #3 #4 yet.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Can some1 pliz describe what to do with those things, plainly. I really didnt understand what to do...

I ve completed the cauldron quests, that s all...

Kommentar von Thottbot

On the horde side, you get the Scholomance quest from the High Executioner at the Bulkwark. This starts the chain to get the Skeleton Key. You will need to kill 15 skeletons at the ruins in the WP (see quest notes), go to Gadget with 15 gold (yes) to buy a mold, go to the top of fire plume ridge in Un'Goro with the mold and 2 thorium bars to forge the key body, then kill the lich back at the WP ruins to get the head of the key.....voila, you can now get into Scholo on your own (unless you are a rogue, in which case you can pick the lock and save 15 gold, plus get a skill up).

NOTE: You MUST complete All Along the Watchtowers from the High Executioner before he will give you the Scholomance quest, even though it shows up as a separate quest line here.

Good luck

The actual purpose of these quests is NOT to get rep with the Argent Dawn or even to get experience... the real purpose of these quests is to "stop the Scourge invasion".

After you do a couple of the "Target:________" quests from the priestess in Chillwind, you open up a new option: "How are we doing against the Scourge?" (or something like that). She'll give you a status report.

If not many people have done the quests to counteract the cauldrons, then she'll give bad news. If more people have done them, she'll give good news.

If she gives bad news, that meanns that grinding spots all over WPL are more heavily loaded with mobs. If she gives good news, it means that there are, obviously, less. However, it does give rep and it does give a small amount of XP.

EDIT:
IF you do good:
"We are dominating the scourge. The effects of the altered plague we gave them will affect them for at least another full day. We need to stay on top of it though, so be sure to sabotage a cauldron when you can."

If you do bad:
"We are being overrun by the scourge! We haven't given them enough of the altered plague to have any effect. Talk to Alchemist Arbington about how you can sabotage the cauldrons."

Kommentar von Thottbot

Perhaps these cauldrons will play a role when the Scourge invasion occurs?

Kommentar von Thottbot

Now explain to me why i would want to farm ingredients AND pay 40s of my hard earned gold to shut down the cauldrons and decrease the mob population.....of which, may I remind you of, I want around so i can farm them for thier stones. Seems to me these little farming expeditions are ass-backwards.

They should drop the requirement to BUY the quickener....this should be given to you to use along with the farmed ingredients. If the AD wants the cauldrons shut down so bad....they shouldn't be charging the people that are going to do it. This is just stupid quest designing.

Kommentar von Thottbot

k, i'm and AD honored 61 going back and trying to grind for rep. But this guy wont give me any of his quests. anyone know why? did they take it out with the patch?

Kommentar von Allakhazam

The quests you can do with him that is

Kommentar von Allakhazam

He doesn't appear with an exclamation point over his head, but he does have quests-- tasks, really. They're involved with High Priestess MacDonald's investigations of the cauldrons.

Remember how you had to kill the cauldron keeper and get a sample of the goop? (I don't. Not really. It was so long ago.) Having analyzed it, you now need to counteract it with materials that sound straight out of an Ed Wood sci0fi feature. There are four cauldrons in the Western Plaguelands; one requires Osseous Agitators, two require Somatic Intensifiers, and the last requires Ectoplasmic Resonators. (Told you.) They also need four pieces of Runecloth each, and of course the magic ingredient, the Arcane Quickener.

Problem is that the AQ has a 30-minute lifespan. I read that after I had bought four and after I had written down what each cauldron needed, all while searching for a pen that still had ink in it. Suffice it to say I wasted 90s.

You will need to carry a device, the Vitreous Focusser, to gather the three types of reagents from the Undead in WPL. It's exactly like the Cache of Mau'ari that you get in Winterspring; you just have to have it in your inventory when you start killing the Undead. You can delete it and get another one when you next visit WPLK on other missions. Skeletons drop the Osseousm Ghouls and Zombies the Somatic, and Ghosts the Ectoplasmic. They also, fortunately, drop Runecloth in decent quantities.

In a triumph of planning, the mobs around each cauldron tend to be the type that drop the appropriate reagent for that cauldron. If you're just barely of a level to fiddle around in WPL, buy only one Arcane Quickener at a time. I found it efficient to hit two at once. You do wind up with excess reagents, but the quests are repeatable, so you'll be in better shape next time.

25 points worth of AD rep isn't a whole lot, and given the short lifespan of Arcane Quickener I'd say there are easier ways to get it. But I wanted to do each cauldron at least once, and so I did. If you're farming Runecloth, though, the cauldron quests are good ones to do as a sideline.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

You get a small amount of XP and 25 points of Argent Dawn reputation (the equivalent of a token).

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Does anyone know what these do? Using his arcane quickiner to open the cauldrens?
