Description

The true goal in Uldaman is to obtain the Discs of Norgannon. These platinum discs could grant our order unbelievable power. Countless secrets of the Makers are inscribed on them...their value is beyond any material wealth you could possibly imagine.

The only problem in obtaining them is that Archaedas, an ancient and powerful creation of the Makers, guards the discs with a venerable army at his disposal. I need you to defeat him and secure the discs for The Reliquary.

I think that if you did the chain the came from the discs prior to cata the chain ends. If you havent done it before it may still send you to the now opened gate to Uldum which was previously sealed. If anyone can confirm this please reply.

After listening to Lorekeeper of Norgannon and learning that Troggs and Dwarves share a common ancestor (valuable information for teasing dwarves), The Platinum Disc quest is available. Accept it and your copy is placed in your backpack. Take it to the entrance off Uldaman to turn in. Now quest ends.
