Bugged for me, or so I thought.
Every one of them has a cogwheel, yet clicking/right-clicking doesnt do anything except target it. Can't pick it up, drag it, bag it, nada. Very briefly it has you as a target then drops it.

THEN...I noticed the buff...so, when ya think it hasn't worked, look up for the buff and then walk/run back to questgiver :)

Description

Workers act like it's their job to complain. If it isn't the backbreaking labor, the long hours, or the low pay, it's being turned to stone by basilisks. It's always something! But I'm thinking maybe this whole workers-to-stone business could be a big moneymaker for me. What if those guys are now high-quality stone? My whiny employees could be worth more to me as luxury building materials than a source of labor! Grab a stonified mountainfoot miner and haul him or her back to me.

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.

  • Basilisk Bashin'Azshara · Level 5-30

    We moved this whole mountain to strip mine the minerals below. But what we didn't take into consideration were the subterranean basilisks that are now, uh, terranean.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • The Perfect PrismAzshara · Level 5-30

    There's got to be a way to reverse the basilisks' stonification. Those irritating night elf saboteurs who have been lurking around my mine must know something we don't. They seem to be immune to the gaze of the beast! I want you to find out their secret, <name>.
