The Overseers can be kinda tricky to find, with only a few specific spawn points, and somewhat long spawn time. I myself found 6 of them.


  1. Next to the puddle of water at 55,12

  2. Atop the structure at 58, 15 (standing next to the railing on the left)

  3. On the cliff at 57,13

  4. There are two inside the tower at 55,15 and one more at the entrance, at the bottom of the stairs.

This quest is pretty annoying currently, with everyone grinding old WQs to see if they can fill out their Legion Emissary mounts. I recommend using a macro like

/tar Nightfallen Overseer
/cast (instant cast spell of your choice here)

and just flying around between the four points in the comments above.

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.

Taken from the quest's prerequisites.

  • You Scratch My Back...Azsuna · Level 10-45

    Much better. I knew I could count on you, my friend. Allow me to return the favor. I know how you can destroy the large mana collector pylons. We shall save your dragon yet! The pylons only work against ground targets, yet they're defenseless from above. Send your whelplings at them, my friend.
