A Need For Coal

A Need For Coal is an Alliance-only quest for level 10-60. The quest's turn-in marker is in Tiragarde Sound at 75.9, 22.5.

Description

Ah! <name>! Just the person I was hoping to see!

I was just getting ready to smelt some monelite down into ingots, but I noticed my coal supply was running low.

Well, I mean... I have coal, yes, but I prefer using Ashvane Coal. It puts out less smoke and burns hotter, so I need less of it.

If you can get some Ashvane Coal from the Ashvane Foundry south of here, I'd be more than willing to give you a couple pointers for mining monelite. Deal?

Rewards

You will receive:

Spell: Mining Technique: Monelite Deposit (Rank 2)Teaches you how to gather monelite even more effectively.

Just checked at skill level 47 - not quest. So 50 might do the trick. Yes quest showed up at level 50 - along side Ritualistic Preparations]

Where to go

Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.
