Capture a Mine (ID 57314)

Capture a Mine is a PvP quest for level 10-90. It rewards 2 reputation rewards, 9,500 experience and money.

Description

As battle rages over the landscape of Alterac Valley, so too does it rage through the Coldtooth and Irondeep mines. Both are rich sources of minerals and both are used to store supplies; it's no wonder they are so highly valued!

Help our war effort, <name>! Capture one of the mines for the Horde! To capture a mine, enter one that we do not control and kill its leader. When that is done, the mine will be ours and we'll send troops to protect it!

I have had lots of issues with getting credit for this quest on my horde chars for some reason even when i do the required thing for the capture.

I can't find the NPC that I am supposed to deliver this to, but I assume the Alliance killed them...

I don't think they respawn. I ran in at the beginning of a new round and found her right where the ? was. The previous attempt, all the NPCs in that area were just gone.
