Quest Log

Seaside Salvage (Horde)

Seaside Salvage is a Horde-only quest for level 15-30 in Tanaris. It is step 11 of 48 in the Tanaris storyline. The quest's turn-in marker is in Tanaris at 52.2, 30.1. It rewards 1 reputation reward, 4,100 experience and money.

Description

We've got to get goods moving in this market ASAP if we want to be competitive. I've got an angle for us.

Gadgetzan's under blockade by pirates, but plenty of the goods that get blown off the ships survive intact... they just wash away. Most of them wash up in the shallows just south of town.

Head down there and start salvaging; there's crates full of pure profit just floating around down there.

Anything that allows you to walk on water or that makes you big enough to walk through the water is best for this. But make sure you bring more than one of those items if it disappears when you take damage, for sometimes a Southsea Scoundrel will appear when you grab the supplies.

This quest is best done with Puddle Stomping, which is given by the same quest giver.

Where to go

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • All Cheered OutTanaris · Level 15-30

    Well gosh, we've cleaned up quite a bit here! <Kelsey clears her throat.> Listen, <name>, I'm looking forward to finally vacating this killbox so I can get away from these goblins and drop the cheer-act.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Puddle StompingTanaris · Level 15-30

    Here's the situation. If we want to establish the Bilgewater Cartel's market presence in Gadgetzan, we'll need to start providing services to the community. The new coast has been great for business here, but the sea also brought sea giants with it.
