2 of the mutinous crew are holding treasure chests and 1 is holding a Panderan statue. I was thinking, wow, they raided quite far for that but then I realize Pandaria is not that far from Zandalar on the map.

That is every comment on this page.

Description

Pirate-King Zem'lan was right about one thing: he won't stay dead for long. We gotta take our treasure and get out of here while we got de chance. We can take de boat, but we'll need a place to hide out for awhile. Are your vulpera friends open to housin' a few stowaways? <First Mate Jamboya motions to the piles of treasure in his boat.> Clearly, we can pay dem for their trouble.

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.

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • This Be MutinyVol'dun · Level 30-60

    It be time to face Pirate-King Zem'lan and bring dis mutiny to bear, <name>. Zem'lan keeps a gong at de top of his treasure isle dat any crew member can ring to challenge him to a fight. I only ever seen one lass brave enough to ring it, and it didn't end well for her.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • A Strange DeliveryVol'dun · Level 30-60

    The last time our caravan rolled through the Whistlebloom Oasis, we found an odd Zandalari living in a cave. We traded a few things and he paid me upfront to bring him a pineapple. I don't know why. It took me a long time to find one, but a vulpera holds up her end of the trade.
