For those who aren't helped by the other comments, because coordinates don't help if you don't know whether to go up or down the elevator, here is the simple way to find the cave. Stand on the quest giver, Warbrave Nava. He's looking right at the cave. Straight ahead from him, through the Enraged Ambershards, about 30 feet, is the cave. It is in front of, not behind the quest giver like another poster said. It is absolutely not "way down," as the other poster said. Just walk straight to where the quest giver is looking ahead.

Inside the cave, do not go down the ramp that is straight ahead. Instead, just hang right immediately. Then cross a log bridge. There is Wrathshard. Kill him. He has it coming.

What to do

StorylineCrystal Calamity, step 2 of 2
Rewards20g 22s, 6,150 XP

Description

The Underking has used the Hammer of Khaz'goroth to render the mountainside into a weapon against us. The hammer is a tool for creation, not a weapon for his amusement! Even now, his crystal servant, Wrathshard, is driving these elementals out of the mountain down upon my people. We must hold the bridge against this onslaught. Enter the cave, find Wrathshard, and send him back to his master in pieces.

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.
