The Abandoned Crypt

The Abandoned Crypt is an Alliance-only quest for level 15-30 in Western Plaguelands. It is step 11 of 63 in the Western Plaguelands storyline. The quest's turn-in marker is in Western Plaguelands at 53.8, 80.4. It rewards 2,050 experience and money.

Description

If you truly intend to move forward in this battle for Andorhal... well, perhaps I can help.

To the east lies a large crypt. The bottom level of the crypt was once used for storage of weapons and armor... until the Scourge came. Now that the undead have left, the weapons are free for the taking.

Most of the weapons are probably rusted and rotten by now, but they will serve better than tunics and pitchforks.

This is a a good quest and gives another sight into the new phasing in WoW. Getting to the crypt you come across no mobs. However as soon as you turn this quest in at the bottom of the crypt the mobs appear and you have to fight your way out (with the next quest) and when you get out of the crypt there are lots of them around this area. Not hard Q though.
