Quest Log

Lumbering Away

Lumbering Away is a Horde-only quest for level 10-60. The quest's turn-in marker is in Zuldazar at 56.0, 42.1.

Description

The hardwoods in dis jungle are dense enough dat dey rival coal in terms of how much heat a skilled miner can get out of dem.

The biggest problem using local timbers, however, is dat de jungle is always wet. If de wood is not stored properly, it takes weeks to dry out entirely.

I bring dis up because my forge is starting to run low on fuel.

Bring me some dry firewood to keep it going, and in exchange I will teach you a trick for mining monelite.

Rewards

You will receive:

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

For anyone (like me) who was wondering, you can pick this quest up at the trainer when your skill reaches 50. You do not have to look for a drop from a node.

The [item=160941] that you need to collect is an item lying around the place, that you will see on your map.
It's quite difficult to see, it does not shine brightly - like quest items normally do.
They are commonly just inside doors of huts, or buildings - I found I needed to move my viewpoint in a bit in order to see them correctly.
Annoying little quest, until I figured out what I was actually looking for.....

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.
