Something about this quest does make it really hard. As a 31 warrior (I was only in there for the ore) I got killed once!

Anyway, there are three waves of Kobolds with what I thought were generous breaks in between. Something went off when I did this quest, and the second group didn't appear. Not an oppressive bug really. It would be a good idea to do this one with a friend.

This is a ridiculously hard quest for it's level. I tried this as a level 28 rogue with reasonably good gear and failed it three times. Once I just got overwhelmed by mobs, the second and third times I failed to aggro a mob that killed Piznik. Upon first approaching Piznik you'll have to kill 5-6 mobs (watch out, they tend to stack on each other, so what first looked like four mobs to me was actually six) just to get the quest. Also as a previous poster mentioned, Piznik has very low health - he can be killed by a single mob, and rather quickly if you're chasing a fleeing mob up the tunnel; you HAVE to aggro all the mobs that spawn. The first wave is pretty easy, only three, but the next wave had five, and then a couple additional adds respawned in the hallway I originally cleared to get to the quest giver. What finally worked for me was waiting at the slight bend in the tunnel where the waves spawn, quickly sapping one, tagging each of the other spawns to keep them on me, and killing the geomancers first. Made a quick target macro for them as they can get lost in the crowd. Crippling poison recommended to deal with runners when you're frostbolted.

Indeed it is hard, I tried to solo this as a lvl 24 warrior, with 1.4k hp I survived the first 2 waves, but then at the 3rd I killed the overlord and another guy and almost killed the other 2s, but eventually died and I had no potions left so I didn't try it again...

Garbage quest for a garbage item. It didnt say 'elite' or bring friends or anything, but not only did i wipe on it (23 warrior), but the mobs didnt despawn, so when i ran back, they wiped me again, and all the trash in the cave respawned, so i had to corpserun to get out of their with my full red gear and half health.

pretty easy quest, soloed as lvl 70 rogue

In case you are masochistic enough to attempt it, the quest is at 71, 59. You have to go inside the south mine in Windshear Craig and sort of wind down and around to the very bottom.

It's an easy quest to miss, and there's a very good reason for that: it sucks. Three waves of mobs spawn to attack you. Third wave came as I was still fighting the second one, killed me. The mine itself is choked with kobold miners on a miserably fast respawn rate, and the quest itself is more or less unbeatable for a soloer.

BTW this attempt was made as a level 25 tauren druid. The mobs were green and my healing timing was good, and they still took me down.

I tried this as a 22 Shaman, and at that lvl, impossible.
And the Quest was yellow even, shouldn't be impossible.

Commento di 160923

As a 27 Shaman, having read these posts, I still wiped on swarms of gray trash. This is definitely a group quest.

25 rogue, okay gear (mostly greens & some blues), easy to find the guy if you just hug the left wall BUT it's insanely impossible to do. So far I've failed and the gob hasn't even bothered to respawn. Great, at least I can stealth back out.

Never assume an inside quest is an escort, as I did. I mistakenly thought I'd just go in, help kill mobs on the way out and collect some easy loot. This was harder than the gorilla attacks in STV.

Don't bother unless you just like dying or you're totally twinked out.

Edit: It doesn't work to take too many people with you either. Very cramped quarters, maybe a 2- or 3-man can hold down the main "room" (it's more like a closet) & protect the miner. Anymore and the cramped quarters, with people swinging and killing, you won't be able to see your attackers. I guess just set to auto attack & REMEMBER THE ALAMO!

Completed successfully as a 25 BM hunter using a 25 boar pet. I'm no twink, but my gear was moderately enchanted using armor kits and simple enchants appropriate for my level. I was using minor mana oil, a sharpening stone on my other dagger, a scroll of stamina, 6 stamina food buff and a minor rejuvenation potion.

I pulled each mob carefully, making sure not to pull aggro from my pet, on the way in, never fighting more than 3 at a time. I used a potion only once. Once the quest started to protect him, my pet managed to keep aggro most of the time as I healed it moderately. I used a frost trap in case I was charged but the goblin was not attacked once. Then I left the place the same way, did not die once or come close.

That said, I can agree how it would be hard had I not had the pet, or if I was a clothie. My recommendation, if you're not a hunter, is bring a friend, or make sure you have solid gear, use all the buffs and consumables you have, and fight smart, you cannot simply tank & spank this.

I agree that the reward was kinda lame, especially since it was mail boots.

Failed miserably with a well geared 26 shaman. Killed first two waves, but the 3rd wave (which had a melee + 3 casters that each hit for 60) aggro'd the respawns in the tunnel and i had 7 mobs on my nuts.

Do not bother with the quest, total waste of time.

Commento di 225109

totally ridiculous quest if you ask me
i got my ass wooped as a 25 warr
the wave itself isn't as hard as it may seem
but the respawn rate of other kobolds are just ridiculous

but i guess it's doable when you blow all your CD
my warrior's major spell was on CD so i can't tell (meaning retaliation)

PS. when other adds come, make sure you kill the geomancer first
as i mentioned it above, third wave itself can easily be solved with retaliation

Commento di Nienie

In case you're wondering just how long it takes him to mine a sample.. from accepting the quest until turning it in, it was 5 minutes and 10 seconds.

Commento di Hymn

Soloed this quest with a level 25 prot warrior in the 3.0 patch. Not hard at all, didn't even have to pop any cooldowns. For any squishy class I'd imagine this quest would be pure hell. I suggest just skipping this quest period, unless your going for the loremaster achievements.

Commento di 132990

This quest counts for Loremaster of Kalimdor achievement.

Commento di Wevah

It says "Horde" here, but Alliance can do this quest (and the followup).

Commento di AllYourBase

I totally solo'd this as a level 80 shaman.

Commento di greengoo

As an 80 doing Loremaster the hardest part about this quest is not killing yourself with boredom between groups.

Commento di 295146

Anyone else notice Piznik's faction is Venture Co.? I thought that was kinda interesting, especially considering this quest gave me Ratchet reputation.

Commento di dacroyle

Not a walkover, but doable as a 25 ret pally. Used Ret aura, buffed myself with Righteous Fury and Consecrated when the waves came in to gather them up. Had to heal myself during the second and third waves, but there was enough of a gap for me to drink.

Commento di hypehuman

Soloed this as a 25 enhancement shammy with bad gear (besides Reef Axe). What saved me were Gift of the Naaru and Lifeblood. I failed the first time, but the second time I remembered to save BOTH those DoTs for the final wave (the third wave).

Commento di Schnoodledorfer

...just hug the left wall...

There are two entrances (one at each end of the building). Hug the left wall if you enter from the south. Hug the right wall if you enter from the North.

BTW, I stumbled upon this as a level 33 rogue while leveling lockpicking and still failed the first time. I wasn't expecting the third wave. Piznik went after a kobold while I was fighting others. I figured he could handle one of them for a few seconds. Wrong!

Commento di 411363

Just tried this quest, started it and ended up standing there for a good 2 minutes. Finally I decided to leave and sure enough all 3 waves spawned at the same time, needless to say my 22 warrior had no chance....

Commento di 456016

Really easy as 25 warrior... i dont understand you but its really easy

Commento di 97443

Despite what is said here, you can pick this quest up before level 22, I was able to do it at level 18 (with a little help of course).

Edit: Wowhead seems to have updated this to the proper minimum required level: 17

Commento di wye43

6 minutes of waiting. The most boring quest ever.

Commento di 533066

This quest does not seem to decrease your Bloodsail Buccaneers reputation (at 80, Hostile.)

Commento di 413787

Lvl 24 prot warr solo, one of the easiest protection quests ive ever done. I just popped shield block all three times and AoEd them to death. I dont really have an idea of what geared is at this level so i cant comment, however with the 2nd wave i reccomend line of sighting the casters by running past the corner

Commento di WARBOSZ

'Time is money, friend' - he says that at the end of the quest. Think about it.

Commento di Zebix

If you do this quest at high level, after the first "wave" you might think the quest is bugged, because nothing happens.

Actually, you will kill the "waves" very quickly, and the timer between them is fixed (45 seconds or so). So be patient, and wait for the next wave, don't abandon the quest angrily like I almost did :)

Commento di Valdan

This quest awards rep to Ratchet, Gadget, Booty, and Everlook, and does NOT decrease your rep with Bloodsail

Commento di 660890

I waited for 20 minutes and nothing happened.

	[Keep Piznik safe while he mines the mysterious ore] (1)

Descrizione

[You know, I was once the second most important person here at this site. That all changed when Gerenzo took over. Fired my boss, Ziz Fizziks, and sent me down to work in the mines. Ziz told me to stay here and gather information, though. His new boss will pay us well if we can find out what Gerenzo's plans are.

Anyways, what I do know is that Gerenzo has ordered large amounts of this gold-green ore to be mined. I can get you a sample to bring to Ziz, but you'll have to watch for patrols while I get it.]
