Quest Log

The Fargodeep Mine

The Fargodeep Mine is an Alliance-only quest for level 1-30 in Elwynn Forest. It is step 4 of 30 in the Elwynn Forest storyline. The quest's turn-in marker is in Elwynn Forest at 42.1, 65.9. It rewards 1 reputation reward, 4,100 experience and money.

Description

The mine in Northshire isn't the only one with problems! I have reports that the Fargodeep Mine in Elwynn has also become a haven for Kobolds.

Explore the mine and confirm these reports, then return to me. The mine is almost due south of Goldshire, between the Stonefield and Maclure homesteads.

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.
