For those with Coords, found him at 45, 72, to the right (SW) of The Ravenian for the quest Brute Strength (http://db.mmo-champion.com/q/27117/brute-strength/). He is standing outside on the floor of what used to be a building.

Also, at lvl 43, he was still a skull, but I had no trouble killing him as a shadow priest. You do get help from Koltira Deathweaver, so if you are lower leveled trying this, keep yourself alive until she shows up.

What to do

StorylineWestern Plaguelands, step 27 of 63

Description

The Scholomance is one of the few Scourge holdouts remaining west of the Thondroril. The headmaster of Scholomance, a cultist by the name of Darkmaster Gandling, has made an appearance on the battlefield. This will be his final mistake. You will find Gandling in a square near the southern end of town. I want you to fight and weaken Gandling. I will join you to help finish him off.

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.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • The Endless FlowWestern Plaguelands · Level 15-30

    Araj the Summoner is bolstering the Scourge defenses with simple skeletons... an army of weaklings that will overwhelm you before it overpowers you. He has assembled animi within Andorhal's northern towers that spew these skeletons out at an alarming rate. But I've got the solution!

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Brute StrengthWestern Plaguelands · Level 15-30

    Gandling has brought his lieutenant, the Ravenian, with him. This lumbering brute is far more dangerous than any of the other Scourge you will find upon the battlefield... even the abominations. You will find the Ravenian within a tower near the southern end of town.
