Okay...
Just hold on............................................................................ This isn't just s simple 'go talk to this dude, grab the quest and voila...'

If you are like ME - he wasn't offering the quest - which ALSO means - you can't get the house decor items. So what's wrong?
It's NOT a phasing issue or a time-phase issue.

It's a "quest" issue...
So here is how to solve this problem and gain the 2 house decor items for your house:

Do the quests. ALL the quests - for the Thorium Brotherhood (you can ignore the big ogre quest where he wants to ride spiders and all that jazz. Just ignore him). The quests will take you all over the zone - but only THAT zone. Once you go through them you'll complete THIS quest which unlocks the first item. If you want the second house decor item - you guessed it. Do the rest of the quests - which will end with an achievement for completing Searing Gorge quests and unlock the item for your house.

So - hope this helps someone with knowing what's going on and enjoy decorating your house with the new items :)

All this for an f'ing box. /sigh. Damn my inability to be stronger than this game. Oh well, time to grind 23 year old quests for a box so I can maybe make a tolerable looking toilet. What the #$%^ is my life.

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.
