TheWoWDBOk if you're trying to find this guy to turn in the quest Dark Binding Dark Binding - then ignore what everyone else is saying about where he is and just do this, trust me - it's where he is:
- there's a big underground area that's not quite a cave... this area contains the cave you're looking for.
- There's several ways to get into the underground area - use the one at 55,63
- hug the left wall
- keep your eye out on the left wall for a small opening that leads downward into the cave your'e looking for. ITS SUPER EASY TO MISS! - There's some tall purple crystals in front of it. It's not too far in, it's pretty quick into the underground area so don't go too deep or you'll miss it. (once you're in the underground area THEN you'll see your coords change and you start looking for 94,34 as the cave entrance)

Well for Nagrand the coords for cave entrance are 56.46, 61.77
Tomtom command is /way Nagrand 56.46, 61.77 Shadowfall Canyon
For the cave map the coords would be 94.22, 34.12
The turn-in place for this quest is a bit frustrating to find. Some screenshots to (hopefully) make your life easier:
1. You first need to enter Shadowfall canyon; it's that underground place with the pale guys and elementals. You can find the entrance to Shadowfall canyon from 54, 64.3 in Nagrand, which is where I'm stood in this screenshot.
2. Once inside, you need to go into a cave which is located within Shadowfall Canyon; in this screenshot, I'm stood at 58.0, 62.8 and facing west, toward the mouth of the cave. You can see the way I came in from to the upper left of the picture.
3. After you go into that cave, keep following the road, and eventually you will come into an area where on your minimap you'll see where both the turn-in for Dark Binding and Greyseer are (here's how it looks on your minimap). As you can see, I'm stood at 59.91, 27.70 at that point.
Hope this helps.

What to do
Description
Even as we speak, the pale are enslaving an army of elementals in Shadowfall Canyon. Many have already been enslaved and if we do not lend our aid, more will follow. Go to Shadowfall Canyon and set free the elemental spirits which are not yet fully enthralled by the pale. As for those already enslaved, the only mercy we can give them now is a swift death.
