This can be a little tough, I would suggest at least a couple other people for help. The prospector walks all the way through the ruins pulling everything, including things that spawn if he passes. All of the creatures are at least level 18, you will be dealing with at least three at a time. Also he has very low life and can be killed easily, make sure he doesn't get hit too often. As hard as it is I would definatly do this quest, it leads to a series that gives great exp and rewards.

Mage / Druid combo is the way that I did this one. The mage went ahead and cleared mobs before the prospector aggroed them, and I (druid) stayed on the prospector to heal. I'd throw a small heal on the mage every once in a while. Also buffed the prospector with MotW and thorns. He aggroed twice but I quickly took them off of him. Real easy to do.

He's got a respawn time of 8-10mins approx.

Make sure you let the prospector walk first, or else the Golems will agro on you instead of him. He will not stop to help you like most Escort quests, but move along instead. It's vital that you let him go first. Also, he is healable, so his health shouldn't be a problem if you can heal or use a bandage on him.

This quest can be soloed as long as you know what to expect and can be prepared for it. I just pulled it off with a level 21 mage. I wouldn't recommend trying to solo this before 20. This quest is easily done with two people, but if you're stuck on your own, I hope this helps get you through it.

First, note that Remtravel is indeed oblivious. He will not attack unless he is personally aggroed first, otherwise he will keep walking the scripted route. Mobs attacking you are not his concern. Mobs you aggro yourself will be ignored as well. If you let him lead, he will draw the initial aggro and stop. This can be useful if you need a few seconds to catch your breath, but don't leave him alone too long -- he can't solo these mobs and he can't withstand too much punishment from them. If more than one mob is on him, you need to intervene quickly. AoE attacks are useful here, as he rarely accumulates much threat and any decent damage will get the mobs onto you instead.

Second, avoid the use of snares (Frost Nova, Entangling Roots, etc). If you snare and attempt to pull back for a more opportune attack, the mobs will drop threat on you and switch to something else in melee range -- Remtravel.

Now to tell you what to expect, besides the golems infesting the whole place.

When you begin the escort, there are a couple tents straight ahead and a ramp and scaffold along the right side. Remtravel will eventually walk up that ramp. This cues a single trogg to spawn. This trogg always seems to ignore Remtravel and go for you, so be prepared to dispatch it quickly so Remtravel doesn't get too far ahead of you.

Shortly after this, he will investigate Hollee's tent (he will comment "Oh, that's Hollee's tent, and it's empty") Two troggs will spawn from the back right corner of the camp and go for Remtravel.

Now he will start walking down into the more open area of the dig site. At the far end, straight ahead, is another ramp and scaffold, with a small hill to the left. Remember this spot.

His path will take him down into the dig site, to the left and back around the other side of the wall to the dead end, then turn around and start heading back out to the start point. On his way out, he will investigate that ramp and scaffold I mentioned earlier. When he does, this will trigger two troggs to spawn on the hill to the left, one of them being a caster that likes Fireball. The caster will drop Remtravel in two shots, so you need to draw its aggro immediately. Personally I stood on the hill and cast Fire Blast on it while it was spawning. Even so, it will get one Fireball off on Remtravel before switching to you (both troggs aggro Remtravel immediately upon spawning), so you also need to get the melee trogg off of him and then take them both down before they manage to kill you instead.

If you get past this, you're pretty much clear, you just have to get him back to the front, past the few golems that have respawned, but those should be easy compared to what you just did.

Avoid this quest. I got to the end. He got 2-shot by a geomancer's firebolts. Sooo gay. :(

评论来自 BlueDog

Solod it without much problem, even chatted with a gm at the same time so my attention was partly divided.
Since he was healable I just kept a renew up at him, I also had to heal him once when the fireball-casting one came.

I understand it might be hard for a first-timer but if you know your class in and out I think it is possible to do it, a bit easier for healers

Hard to believe the Wowhead report that this guy has 410 HP. I'd honestly estimate that he has more like 200 at most, which is the main reason why anyone would find this quest difficult - if you don't immediately peel mobs off of him he'll die and it's over.

soloed this quest with poorly geared 20 warrior, just heal him with first aid when needed, and be prepared for when the trogg caster comes, otherwise its easy as caek :)

评论来自 Corbon

Clear the path of golems before starting this quest . The mobs have a very quick respawn rate so don't waste any time. Hybrid classes like Paladin, Shaman or Druid should be able to solo this quest at Lv 20 with mediocre equip. Keep in mind that Remtravel can be buffed and healed.

What happens if you fail as I did,the little bugger got himself killed,is it the end or does he respawn?

评论来自 Thottbot

I believe it's this way for almost all of the escort quests, but let them lead the way and get attacked. This way they'll participate in the fight. Otherwise, you'll notice, that if you start clearing ahead of him, he'll go on his merry way, and while you're fighting, he'll happily walk past you. He'll probably even aggro other things, adding to your troubles. So let him go first, and let him get attacked and make sure he's fighting before you join in. ;) Make him work! Damn guy is absent minded anyway. All this damn work just to find out he left his fossil with the other chick. *mutters* =)

Unfortunately, this quest is a bit buggy. I decided to run through this quest 2 times with my level 50 main druid, before trying it with my alt.

The first time I cleared everything in the immediate area, down the stairs and the first level of golems I thought would try to attack him. I then initiated the escort and went into stealthed feral form. I only went as far as him wandering around the encampment. He wanders around, goes up the board ramp & a scout comes out of the bottom and attacks you (even though I tried to stay out of range).

Then he looks in the tent. At that time, another scout comes out...the first time it followed him, but never attacked him. The second time, two scouts came out and attacked him as he was making his way down the stairs, upon which a stone golem jumped into the fray, making three and he was dead before I could get out feral form. When I'd cleared the camp the first time, the golems that were in the back area, which I considered out of aggro range, well they weren't and they also killed him...he drops fast.

My conclusion is that at least in the encampment, he is going to aggro every golem in there. Once outside, if he's like other escort quests, you're probably safe to follow him and not take any extras on. Usually when the escortee says something, that's your cue that the boogeymen are going to come running up shortly.

If you come to the area and can't find him, it means that someone is either doing the escort, or that they failed. He will usually respawn within about 5 mins or so. Also the golems have a varied spawn time, making it difficult for a higher level to clear the camp (ahem) and let him walk free (he's a pokey devil). By my estimations, some of them are on 4 minutes and the others between 7 and 10.

I also noticed on the 2nd failure that the two scouts remained activated. They were at the far end straight ahead from where you first start the escort, so that would be a clue if you can't find Remtravel up, that someone else has failed and he'll be along shortly.
Good luck!

This is one of the most annoying quests I have ever attempted. Was a level 22 Hunter with a level 22 cat at the time. Before I even talked to the prospector, I first cleared the camp of golems and took a look around to see if there were any hidden mobs. No hidden mobs.

The problem is that the golems respawn quickly and irregularly so that by the the time I had killed the final golem, they had begun respawning at the start. And when I killed those off, one or two had respawned in the back. So I had to go back and kill them off, and finally the camp was clear.

So I dashed back to the prospector and started him off on his search. I went along by his side until he climbed the stairs to the first construction landing. He came back down and as he reached the ground, a scout spawned and jumped out from under the construction landing and began attacking the prospector, who began fighting back. THIS was a real surprise (since I hadn't read the thottbot comments on this quest), so I wasn't ready for it. Anyway, my pet and I soon killed the scout.

Then the prospector meandered around some more, looking here and there. Another golem appeared, which I dispatched quickly. In the meantime, the prospector had gone into a tent at the far end of the camp. When he came out, two scouts suddenly spawned and dashed out after him: one attacked the prospector, and one attacked me. I set my pet on the one attacking the prospector, and I meleed the other. At this point, a golem spawned right next to us and began whomping the prospector. Well, my pet and I lived, but the prospector died. :(

Several more golems had appeared in the meantime, so I killed them off and left the camp. After about ten or fifteen minutes, the prospector reappeared at his initial spot. Wanting to avoid the tedium of redoing this quest without a healer along to keep the prospector alive, I did not repeat the quest.

Not hard really, i done it with my hunter level 19 and my tiger lvl 19, just dont waste mana, and keep him alive geting agroo with my pet

评论来自 Thottbot

I've tried it with a paladin and warrior at about the same level in the past, and had a really hard time doing it. I also got lucky with the priest because there were occasions I thought for sure the guy would die but my heal got to him before the death blow. I do agree with other comments - you are better staying a ways back and letting the mobs attack him first. Basically I let him get aggro, cast renew on him and use the assist key to SW:Pain and wand who he is attacking. I started casting heal when he gets about halfway through his life. That usually pulls the mobs to you for sure, but by that time they are easy to clean up. As soon as battle is over, do another renew on both of you so you're at full health by the time of the next encounter. Biggest pain is the length of the quest because there are too many opportunities to screw up!

评论来自 Thottbot

I did this quest on my fire mage at lv 21. I let the escort lead the way, and when it seemed that he would pull a mob, I began to cast pyro - I followed this up with a fireball, and then fireblast, and most mobs were dead or near death (if not dead, I just wanded).

For any of the multiple trogg spawns, I waited to see who the escort was targetting (by targetting him and pressing assist ), and sheeped them. I then cast fireblast to get aggro, put up a mana shield, and proceeded to wand. I did the same with the sheeped mob.

Multiple golem aggro was more of a problem due to not being sheepable. For the most part, I used mana shield and arcane exploded (I've focused on sta and int with my gear, so this was not too risky).

The two important notes are to hang back, and let the escort do all the aggroing - while it may seem safer to clear the path ahead early, the dwarf often doesn't help, and worse, will continue walking and may aggro more mobs. Also, with the bizarre respawning of the elementals, you may get more mobs than you can handle. Secondly, eat and drink whenever possible. If there are multiple mobs on the escort, you may need to mana shield and run in to arcane explosion. Not an easy thing to do when you're running low on health and mana.

If you're careful, you should be able to do it. Of course, get a friend and it should be a tonne easier. =)

This quest is easy as hell. Did it with my Shaman lvl 23. Just stay ALWAYS behind him, and when he engages a mob, quicly draw his aggro with a spell or attack. He will then turn to you, with the stupid dwarf helping you too. Ah and don't worry about healing him after battle, he restores DAMN FAST. xD

Peace and Horde FTW!

The way i did it was with a grp of 3 A druid hunter and a priest. we were all level 18 The hunter always sent his pet in b4 we'd attack and the priest made sure the Guy was always healed the Area contained level 18-20s and sometimes 2-3 came after u at once

I let the dwarf aggro first, then attacked, that way he helps fight and stays close.

The new coordinates are 35,83. I had to locate by running around the old coordinates. This is a hard quest, best if done in a group. The prospector died three times! I still haven't finished it, I'm lvl 20, Hunter. Good Luck

评论来自 Thottbot

A lot of people are commenting that this quest is bug, because the npc doesn't help you fight the mobs... but what you have to remember is that he's absent minded, and probably isn't even payint attention to what's fighting you... I have a level 70 and I've run into a lot of PLAYERS like that too!

评论来自 Thottbot

I did this Quest with a lvl 21 druid and a lvl 46 druid friend, but we failed it 2 or 3 times! Clearing ahead didnt work that well, 'cause the prof will aggro golems while you're fighting another, and he's dead before you know it. If you stay close to the prof You'll probably get more golems than you can handle.
The Quest says it preferable to do it with 2 people and even then it was hard.
Eventually we called in some reinforcements (2 lvl 40+) and we finally did it. The scouts are a nasty surprise and they don't attack the prof as much as they will attack you. If you manage to kill the golems and scouts one by one they're not that hard to kill, but mostly he's aggro-ing 2 or 3 at the same time from which some attack the prof and some attack you. The prof dies easily (within 2 or 3 hits) so you have to get to the prof quickly to save him. But thats hard when you're fighting off 2 golems off yourself. I found it a pretty hard quest, but also a lot of fun. This professor really cracked me up!
Seems that a lot of the gnomes' technology turns on themselves lol. (did the Gyromasts retreival too and the 1st mate, the Trashwackonater 4000, lvl 20 elite, also goes bad,lol)

i did it witha lvl 22 rogue no probleem just 1 tricky part when theres a mage gollem uve got to watch out for

评论来自 Thottbot

Soloed as a level 21 Hunter. Tricky, but doable. Here's how it works:

1.) Set your pet to passive.
2.) Let the little bastard you're escorting take the lead: as much as possible, you want HIM to be the one to aggro baddies, because that means he'll stop to help fight.
3.) As soon as you or Remtravel aggros a mob, set your pet on it. If you aren't being attacked by anything else, assist your pet. If Remtravel just keeps walking, feel free to assist your pet, but make sure to keep an eye on Remtravel and be ready to assist him.
4.) If more than one mob is aggro'd, set your pet on the first and deal with the second yourself. You and your pet should both generate more threat than Remtravel, so any mob should turn its attentions to you within one or two hits, keeping Remtravel's health high.
5.) The important part: once you've killed a mob, DO NOT loot it.
6.) Continue to follow Remtravel as he wanders aimlessly around the stupid freakin' site. If you stay just a bit behind him, he shouldn't end up aggroing more than two mobs at any given time.
7.) Once the escort part of the quest is done, THEN, if you so choose, you may venture back into the excavation to loot your dead mobs. (Although some of them will probably have respawned and you'll have to kill them again, at least you won't have a useless NPC to babysit while you do it.)

In a nutshell:
1.) Let Remtravel aggro mobs so he assists: don't try to clear his path.
2.) Attack any mob as soon as it's aggro'd on Remtravel so that its attentions turn to you.
3.) Split any attacking mobs between your pet and yourself.
4.) Don't waste time looting.

I had to do this mother friggin quest 10 times.
The first 9 times I tried soloing and got as far as the third trogg event,and died every time

Finnaly I wised up and got a 64 priest's help,we decimated the quest.

This quest is annoying and the golems respawn too fast,a group is advised.

评论来自 Thottbot

It seems to me that classes that have pets and/or in-combat crowd control have a much easier time with this quest. Speaking as a L20 rogue who finally finished it on attempt 4 (and death 3), here are some suggestions:

1) In the case of 2-mob aggros, try to keep aggro off the Prospector by attacking what's attacking him. I /focus-ed him and used that to make it easier to use the assist key "F"; probably a macro that targets the focus and then the mob attacking the target would be a good idea for escort quests.

Obviously, let him aggro the mobs first so he helps out.

2) The real tough part of the quest are the special non-golem spawns, in particular the second one which has a mage (you absolutely have to get aggro from him or the Prospector will die very quickly). This is the time where you are going to pop a healing potion without a doubt.

3) I have a deep suspicion that this quest has been deliberately designed to be harder if you use the usual "clear out the path, then accept the escort quest" strategy. My reasoning is that if you do that, then just about the time you're busy with the final 2 special spawns, you're very likely to get 1 or even 2 golem respawns right in that area, and those adds are deadly -- I got one and the only reason the quest succeeded was that I sped away from the monster, and got lucky to (a) live and (b) by the time the mob returned to its original position, the Prospector was out of aggro range of the respawn.

There's no way I'm going to abandon the quest to test out my theory, but others may want to experiment -- if so, please report what you find out for the next bunch of poor saps doing the quest. It may help to just clean out the outer part of the excavation but leave the golems in the inner area alone until you're on the escort.

The quest is so hard, you need to get to bout lvl 23 with a lvl 22 friend to help u, i done it wen i was lvl 24, tryed soloing it 4 times failed. then done it with lvl 22 and done it easy, together the only trouble we had was at the end, 2 lvl 20's come out, 1 a mage, u have to get straight into them and keep check on his health. bring healin kit for him. to find him just go down to the river on the west side goin towards ashenvale head WEST at the river and u will find him just after the WEST side of the river.

DO THE QUEST WITH GROUP OR BE ATLEAST LVL 30!

My questing buddy (a/k/a hubby) and I just did this quest again. We've both got several level 70s but this quest is still a challenge for lowbies. We both think it's been changed and is now more difficult than it used to be, as more adds (both golems and trolls or whatever they are) spawned continually.

This time we were both level 20, druid and mage, and we failed the first time but completed easily the second try. He buffed MotW on the Prospector and kept him healed, while I did almost all of the dpss using Frost Nova, Blizzard and Flamestrike when groups of 3 adds spawned. There were fewer adds on the second attempt (thanks, Blizz!) and we came across a chest on each attempt.

Definitely doable with just 2 appropriately leveled toons who know what they're doing, but having a healer is very helpful.

评论来自 Thottbot

Soloed this as level 19 Rogue. Here's what I did:

1) Before accepting the quest, I cleared all the golems.

2) Accept the quest.

3) Let him lead on the first two mobs. Then, kill the mobs fast.

4) Clear out any golems that may have spawned after you initial clearance.

5) On the last mob with the mage, make sure you stay right where the mage spawns (36, 86) and kill it first while letting the prospector handle the other mob.

6) After you kill the mage, help prospector finish off mob.

Hope this helps cuz it's my first post.

everything was going good as a lv 18 druid, just before engaging rejuvenate and turn into bear, then enrage and keep swiping, if dwarf keeps holding aggro, taunt him, and keep swiping, u should be fine this way, and after the battle is over, just regrowth urself, but DONT forget to buff dwarf before starting the quest, i failed on the part where there is a caster trogg cuz it just 3 hitted dwarf even before i realized its a caster o-o

评论来自 Thottbot

now that as a 18 druid(dinged during quest), its quite easy, just let him walk in front of you, when you see there are a few seconds left that he will engage, rejuvenate urself and attack the one it attacks, demoralizing shout, then keep mauling, in groups of 2, first do 1 normal attack on 1 and taunt other, demoralizing shout, then keep swiping, when he stops probably troggs will appear, there is the part u will have to use ur shadowmeld so u wont have the 2 mobs on u while prospector is walking away, in groups of 2 troggs, use the same tactic above, when he is going to engage another group, regrowth urself and go in, so u will saving mana too, mana will be nearly full when fight is over in bear form, when the part comes that trogg caster appears, just moonfire caster asap, entangling roots on melee and regrowth + rejuvenate urself, moonfire caster again and go in bear form, then dwarf will be on caster so before he gets aggro, taunt caster then u will be fine with hots on you, and when caster is dead, go on trogg, easy!

NOTE: DONT FORGET TO BUFF PROSPECTOR!

Soloed as lvl 19 hunter with bear lvl 19.

My bear tanked 2golems i kited other. pretty easy, also there will be no mobs after cleaning for 15-20sec, you must sit and eat/drink. On returning all mobs will respawn, so you will need to kill 3-4mobs at time. As before mentioned, let NPC get aggro so he wont run away from you to other mobs))

"Recommended 2 players eh? Right then, me and the Dwarf."

This is difficult but as with most group or two player quests at the lower levels, if you know what you're doing then you can do it alone. Level 20-21 paladin (I leveled half way though) without much trouble. He died the first try, so while I waited for the prospector to spawn again I went and cleared out the place. There are a few adds along the way when he reaches certain places but other than that no problem, things started spawning just as we were leaving. A small hint: if you can, wait for the golems to attack him instead of trying to intercept them. This way he actually stops walking and doesn't aggro anything further.

评论来自 Allakhazam

Easy for a hunter level 20 with a pet AND TRAINED. You just have to pray for your pet first and all will be good.

Stone guys will fall quickly with your pet tanking and your arrows doing the rest, what you just have to do is take the agro when they are more than one (Multi-Shot). You will easily resist one mob (Aspect of the Monkey) so keep focus on your pet's target, shoot him fast and send your pet on the one anoying you.

Kill the 3 fist stone guy just before you start the quest will help a bit.

Good luck

评论来自 Allakhazam

Managed this as a lvl19 hunter (lvl16 green gun, lvl15 bullets) with bear pet on second attempt. Took a trip inside first and slayed everything and then kept mobs at minimum firing range to not aggro unnecessary spawns. Make sure you swap targets with your pet so they both aggro the pet instead of the Prospector and you'll be fine.

评论来自 Allakhazam

I kept getting resists? while shooting arrows at the golems. Are they arrow resistant?

I tried to do this at level 17 as a Hunter - I strongly advise against it. I'm going to try again at 20 when my skills are a little more updated. I'm guessing (and hoping) that might be part of the resisting issues, but I ended up daggering them into submission eventually.

Bear pet would be my choice also as they have more HP and can stun (unless golems resist that also :p).

Thanks in advance for any advice.

评论来自 Allakhazam

After multiple attempts (somewhere in the area of 8-10) I was able to solo this as a 20 Priest. I found it very challenging.

Maxdsterling's advice below is very sound. However, if you are not a healing class level 22 or below, I would think this would be too difficult to solo. I could be wrong, however, the elementals do respawn quickly, and in many cases if you lag behind the Prospector and let him take all initial aggro in the deepest part of escort, he can still grab 2-3 add-ons.

I found, even on my final successful attempt, I had to throw a quick flash heal on the Prospector before I could pull aggro away to save him from certain death on multiple occasions.

My advice: Attempt to find a partner or group before deciding to try to solo. If you do attempt to solo, get comfortable. Even if you don't get it on the first couple of tries, stride to get the Prospector further through the escort each time. Careful planning, and patience, will be key to soloing this portion of the quest successfully.

I'm an Elf Hunter, soloed this quest just now,
I first tried this quest at level 20, failed 3 or 4 times. then I and my pet leveled up to 22 and did it at the second try. I dont want to say it is hard, but it need to be very careful. To make the job easier, i first try to clear up the area before i take the quest. Then these big guys wont be a problem, as not much will be there anyway. The (seems to be) difficult thing is these small guys, they always come in a pair, if u didn't take care of them carefully, they will kill the Prospector. While, this wont be a problem to a hunter, just sent your pet to attack one, and shot another. This way, the Prospector wont be targeted. A trap will also help if you know where these small guys will come out.

By the way, thanks allakhazam,
this website helps a lot.

Ok, soloed this w/ my 22 druid (quest still yellow) . Here's a walkthrough:

Clear out the front section of stone elementals before you start the quest, you can try to clear further, but i find the spawn rate is too fast and you end up fighting them anyways.

Start the quest, you may (depending on how fast you kill) have to deal w/ a respawned elem, but that's resonable. THE KEY PART IS: you must let Remtravel get hit/start hitting the mob FIRST before you attack it, at lvl 16, remtravel does a decent amt of dmg to the 18-20 mobs, so use this to your advantage. As a druid, mana conservation is key, drink when out of combat, and have a big pot ready if you get in over your head (i didn't use one).

Simply put, lag behind Remtravel until he screams for help, then (moonfire) attack to draw aggro so he doesn't die.

At then end, a mage/warr duo pops up and if you don't get the aggro from the mage off Remtravel on the first hit, he's as good as dead (2 firebolts = failed quest, that was attempt 1 of 2 for me, after that i learned the mage must go first, he'll flame Remtravel once cuz of the initial aggro, but if you hit him as he spawns, yr good).

After that, its a cakewalk back, a few respawns but nothing you can't handle.

A similar concept applies if you do this as a group. If you attack every mob before Remtravel acknowledges it, he'll keep walking as if nothing is bothering him. Keep him close and 'relatively' in the fight and you'll be fine.

I soloed this quest with a level 21 Draenei Shaman, my mana was nearly always 0, and it annoyed me that you couldn't get him to wait unless there was some golem trying to eat him.

Seriously one of the worst of many buggy escort quests I've seen in 2.5 years of playing this game.

I consider myself more or less an expert at playing a feral druid, or at least at leveling them. I generally have gear that's about 80-90% of the best possible at any given level.

Failed twice, got it just barely on 3rd try, solo.

1. enable friendly health bars (Keybindings: Show Friendly Nameplates)
2. either be dam quick on the heals, or dam quick to pull aggro
3. never let the NPC keep aggro, EVER.
4. a few spots mobs will spawn and aggro straight on you, burn them or drag them to where he will aggro more, then take aggro off the new ones, finish all together, pref the old mobs first so he won't start moving again while you're still fighting
5. learn the spawns
6. bring a friend or skip the stupid quest
7. stealth or stay behind the NPC so that he takes aggro, but immediately take it from him.
8. there's a spot where two troggs spawn, the geomancer immediately starts chucking a grenade or w/e that'll take 50% of the NPC's health no matter what, if you're not hot on the aggro on both mobs, buh-bye. few sec later you might get a funny golem spawn
9. don't for a sec think that the NPC will stay and fight just b/c you have to - so drag the mobs with you toward him

To sum it up: BLOODY HELL BLIZZ.

Died in the second part of this quest and had to abandon it.. where can I pick it up again?

This is another one that should have been ELITE in the darkshore area (like the ocean deep quest). You can't possibly do this one alone. You need at least 3 people to pull it off.

评论来自 Allakhazam

It's good to know it's an Elite mission even though it's not listed as one. But what would be even more useful would be to know where he is.

For those that need to know, he's West, yes west, of The Master's Glave. Which is on the west side of the road very far south in Darkshore, almost at the southern end of the map for that zone. Just follow the road and you'll see The Master's Galve on your right hand side.

Don`t loot after kill, they will respawn much faster if u loot them

评论来自 Allakhazam

I pulled this one off with me (level 21 druid) and 2 level 17 druids (both heal/moonfiring(and backup tanking if we pulled too much aggro) while I majored in DD with cat form). Was a breeze. Certain i coulda done it alone, but it was easier, faster and safer with a group. Plus it gives you that warm, fuzzy feeling inside :P

Yeah, the basic rule is stay BEHIND the prospector. If he keeps walking while your fighting 2-5 mobs, your as good as failed. If you let him pull the aggro instead of trying to clear a path, he stays behind, meaning he wont pull extra aggro and he helps with killing the golems. Another tip is kill the golem the prospector is attacking LAST if you have more than one pull (of course, gain aggro from said golem before wiping the others).

A fun quest to do, especially as I could show off my new battle-rez skill :) (Healer pulled aggro through opver healing/firing, decided to rez him for the hell of it. Got my 2s of him thouh, being the cheapskate I am.)

Did the first part solo as a 21 warrior and found it relatively easy - seems the hard part is finding the Greywhiskers guy in Darnassus on the follow-up, since the quest-log gives you no info whatever on whereabouts to look... so yeah, still searching for the guy, hohum.

The Prospector is at 35,83

评论来自 Allakhazam

where is the prospector greywhiskers in darnnasus i cant find him or the explorers leuge anywere plz help...

评论来自 Allakhazam

I did this with a level 40+ player at level 20.

That was the only way.

First, we went in and killed a few of them. Don't try to do all of them because they respawn really fast. Then we started the quest...when he goes up to the right and stuff, these golems will follow him down. BE PREPARED. I even got killed with help. What you need is one player to fight the ones that WILL attack him and then go fight off the ones that do attack him. He helps you.

I was pissed off in the end though, because it turns out, he forgot that he left it with Hollee! >.<

评论来自 Taraezor

Even if you have over levelled this quest (as I had) you must stay vigilant. He tends to rush off and get attacked and die quickly because he has rather low health. Remember: In quests like this you may always heal/bandage the NPC1

评论来自 Wimbleton

One way to get started, as Vigfus suggests below, is to clear the excavation area first, then accept the second portion of the quest from Remtravel. There will be four or five trogg respawns but that will be a lot easier, so you can concentrate on healing Remtravel. One frustrating thing is that the old trick of not looting kills doesn't work here; they disappear and suddenly respawn whether you loot them or not. The good news is a few pennies and a few greens. Good farming area. The bad news is that Remtravel has about 10 health and virtually no ability to defend himself.

评论来自 Nochz

If you attack a Golem before the golem attack him he will just walk past you while you fight and aggro everyone else. DO NOT attack anyone before they attack him. (unless you've cleared it all beforehand ofc)

Some hints on how to do this quest.

Remtravel will go through the digsite and back and you need to defend him against two attacks of troggs, where the second assault will be the most dangerous one and requires quick reaction.

When you start, remove the Constructs and Golems if you have the time.
The first assault will be when he is walking up the ramp next to the tents. You can leave him alone for a moment with one trogg.
Try to get some time to remove additional stone golems.
The second assault will be on the way out. At the eastern side of the digsite is a small ledge, a trogg shaman will spawn there. Focus this one, as he can kill Remtravel in seconds.
Respawn is quite fast, so always eat and drink whenever you have a moment to keep you filled up.

Good luck!

Follow these two tips for the best chance of getting this quest done:

1. Do NOT try and clear the area ahead of the prospector. Let him take agro and then take the agro off him by attacking the mob.

2. When the prospector gets attacked by multiple mobs (will happen at least twice) take agro off him FAST by starting an attack on one mob to get agro and then switching to the other. The prospector has low HP and will die quickly if you don't take agro. Once you take agro, the prospector helps take the mob(s) down.

Learned this the hard way. Was in a grp of three (lowbies) and tried clearing the area ahead of the prospector. He died on three separate attempts because he was left to take agro on his own from just one mob.

I eventually finished the quest the next day. At time of writing, I'm playing a lvl 21Dwarf Priest. No special abilities or skills or cooldowns needed. Just follow the tips.

评论来自 Motsew

Remember to hang back a bit and let the mobs attack him or he'll just carry on walking and pull more. He can be buffed and healed so /focus him and keep an eye on his health.

Don't forget to eat and drink whenever you can.

评论来自 korvahk

This quest is probably the worst one in all darkshore. The NPC prospector is level 16 should be 19, the mobs are level 19-21. He does not correctly aggro when you are attacked, he will end up walking away pulling more mobs on himself and dying cause of his low health. Terribly created quest and needed a overhaul 15 years ago......

Do this with a team of 2 or be over leveled and have a healer. Rewards should be blues for the difficulty.

My attempt to do this quest just now on TBC Classic went as follows:
- Killed all Gollem mobs in advance, just like always.
- Began escort, but failed when caster Trogg one-shotted Remtravel during normal course of quest when mobs spawn in. Fair enough, I wasn't properly prepared.
- Waited for Remtravel to respawn, re-started quest.
- Another player entered the area.
- Gollem mobs started to respawn at a hyper rate, literally after 60 seconds.
- Gollems respawned around me just as the same event featuring the caster Trogg and melee Trogg started.
- Failed and died.
- Third attempt, hyper-respawns continued, with Gollems respawning after 60 seconds, same thing happened, myself and Remtravel surrounded by respawns as Troggs were spawning in. Failed.
- Gave up and got help from a L70 Guildie.

The dynamic respawn thing makes this quest impossible to solo, at least for me on a squishy Mage. Maybe a super-twinked Pally or Hunter could do it.
This is the first time in my life I've ever had this kind of trouble with the quest. I've completed it without issue on countless alts in the past.
I suppose I was just super unlucky with the other player wandering in and triggering dynamic respawns.

So this quest is annoying as hell. Remtravel's Excavation regenerated several mobs on top of me and this dwarf. Far more than I would think would be "normal" for an escort. I eventually died from being overrun after killing half dozen golems and troggs and they kept coming. It was like I was level 70 (not 22) and I killed everything and it came back a few seconds later; happened anyway. I'm used to the first mobs being back when we're on the way out of the area but why the hell are they spawning right after being killed right on top of me and the professor. Bugged as @#$% I say.

评论来自 Vulkanian

Don't even bother with this stupid quest. You get swarmed with mobs and golem respawn timers are unreasonable.

评论来自 SeekerWi

If you bring over Kerlonian Evershade from 昏昏欲睡 to help at level 17, you can solo the quest with any class. He can solo any mob with ease and function as a tank. The 25 minutes given is more than enough to finish his quest after you do the prospector, too.

Even with that the difficulty is high, duo it if you can find anyone around. the fireballing trogg is your biggest hurdle, make sure to let him get exactly one fireball off to make sure Remtravel does not ignore him, but two fireballs will probably end up killing him.

评论来自 IronPylons

Did this on the Hardcore server and none of the ambush events spawned. Only had to kill the Golems that normally spawn there.

Anyone else experience problems with getting the quest completed? Did the full escort, but it didnt complete at all, twice now.
