Treasure Contract: Explosive Discoveries

[56.6, 92.0] for this quest, kill and loot [npc=90107]; see step 1.

Info on the full "Breaching the Barrier" quest chain, one of the six quest chain criteria for the Master Relic Hunter (Alliance)/ Master Relic Hunter (Horde) achievement needed to get the [follower=465] follower with [garrisonability=256] and unique [garrisonability=248] traits. This chain takes place in Shadowmoon Valley, the southeastern Draenor zone.

Getting Starter Quests: The first quest is given by Harrison Jones, who turns up just inside your garrison's Town Hall on random days. He's in some garrisons every day; use Group Finder's Premade Groups/Custom category to search for "Harrison" to see if anyone is inviting people to their garrison to get the quest.

Bug Notes:

• 
  
• If you collected an item that should complete a quest, but the quest isn't shown as completed, log off and back on (just reloading won't work), click the quest in your quest log, and see if you can click "complete quest".
• 
  
• If clicking a "Click to complete quest" pop-up makes it go away but doesn't actually complete the quest, click the quest in your quest log, and see if you can click "complete quest".
• 
  
• Leave at least one spot free in your quest log (i.e. 24 of 25), or a quest may become uncompletable going from one quest to the next.
• 
  
• You can not do these quests in a raid group; doing some steps in a raid group can make a quest uncompletable.
• 
  
• If a quest becomes uncompletable, you can return to your garrison, delete the quest, and re-accept the quest on that step of the quest chain from the book of [object=239791] on the ground next to Harrison Jones. All but the initial quest are also shareable from party members, if you are on the same step of the quest chain.

1. Treasure Contract: Explosive Discoveries: [56.6, 92.0] on the large southern island in Shadowmoon Valley, kill and loot [npc=90107], and click the "Click to complete quest" pop-up. [item=119093] is handy getting to the exact spots for several of these quests, if you have one, but has a ten minute cooldown. Four ways to get to the island, in order of preference, depending on which flightpoints you are able to use:

1. 
   
2. Fly to the Darktide Roost flightpoint on the southern island, and ride west along its coast to Demolitionist Megacharge.
3. 
   
4. Fly to Socrethar's Rise flightpoint on Shadowmoon Valley's southern coast ([43.9, 77.5]) jump down the cliffs to the west into the water, and ride or swim east/southeast to the island.
5. 
   
6. Fly to Pinchwhistle Gearworks flightpoint on Spires of Arak's eastern coast ([60.9, 73.3]), and ride or swim east to the island in Shadowmoon Valley. If you have a Elixir of Water Walking or [item=81354] to move more quickly you can ride due east, but if you're swimming, you might want to hug the coast more closely so you don't succumb to fatigue.
7. 
   
8. If you don't have any of those flight points, get to Spires of Arak's east coast, and ride/swim east to the Shadowmoon Valley island, as rocks along Shadowmoon Valley's southern coast prevent getting into the water except at Socrethar's Rise.

Bag Space Tip: After you get credit for completing this quest, you can safely delete [item=121837] from your bags. It's just for interesting reading. Each Harrison Jones quest chain leaves a similar soulbound book in your inventory (click for list).

2. Dark Grimoire: The First Ingredient: [63.8, 94.0], jump on cart, jump on its edge, and stand on its wheel to reach the hanging bag. If you have [item=104299] from Timeless Isle, using it afterwards will launch you to the location of the detonator needed for the next quest.

3. Dark Grimoire: The Second Ingredient: [50.4, 89.6], crate is floating underwater.

4. Dark Grimoire: The Final Ingredient: kill and loot 5 [item=121832]s from demons around Socrathar's Rise (southern region of Shadowmoon Valley's mainland). The shore is mostly blocked by cliffs, except for a ramp at [47.2, 84.3] northwest of the previous quest's crate; you can ride up the ramp, or use [item=119093] or a similar flying ability.

[npc=88264]s (10k) health are the easiest source of bloods, but there are not that many of them. They spawn in packs of five imps, and typically drop around two bloods per pack. Two packs spawn around [48.0, 79.0], two packs spawn around [48.7, 76], two packs spawn around [49.4, 83.2], a pack patrols back and forth up the hill around [45.0, 79.0], and a nearby pack patrols around the Demon Gate circle at [46.3 80.5].

Other demons there include [npc=84908]s (420k health) and [npc=81543]s (860k health) which usually drop one blood each, and spawn around [49, 80], [51, 77], and [48, 73]. [npc=85478]es (48k health) spawn in a number of locations, often with another mob.

5. Dark Grimoire: Breaching the Barrier click on swirling portal at [42.7, 74.2] (on the ground, not above on the hill), then jump over purple runes/beams in the cave to get the [object=240147]. Abilities like blink, displacer beast, and disengage (tricky) can help, speed boosts can help with longer jumps, a glider can help, but Aviana's feather is reported to not work. Even without special abilities, you can make it over hugging the right side of the cave with three jumps: two over the horizontal beams, and one kind of up the rocks a bit as you pass the round rune to the left.

Once you click the grimoire, double-check that the quest is ready for turn-in, then hearth back to your garrison to turn the quest in to [npc=81492] (Alliance) or Rokhan (Horde).
