Quest Log

Weigh Anchor (Horde)

Weigh Anchor is a Horde-only quest for level 45. The quest's turn-in marker is in Azshara at 55.3, 53.4.

Description

<name>, I was hoping to ask you for a small favor. The naval fleet at Bilgewater Harbor have been requesting large amounts of felslate to help construct supplies for their ships.

I'm pretty busy here coordinating the gathering efforts and all my couriers are still out. I was wondering if you wouldn't mind taking that shipment over there to them?

I heard there's a portal to Orgrimmar in the Windrunner's Sanctuary here in Dalaran so it shouldn't be a long trip or anything.

Rewards

Would've been fun if blizzard had Alard Schmied say/whisper something along the lines of "Busy daydreaming? You may want to grab the crate before you head out." if you leave the store without it.

Make sure you pick up the damn crate. I assumed it'd be one of those automatic quest items, it took me portalling and flying all the way to Bilgewater Harbor to tell me it wasn't /cry, you have to click the crate in the Dalaran Blacksmith's shop
