The area for this quest is up the hill from the original Skettis you investigated on starting Spires; it's full of level 100 mobs. Avoid the 100 elites, kill the regular 100 elites. Pick up lost artifacts (glowing hawk statues) and power cores(balls of fire) (gearable objects); use the power cores on the deactivated constructs to get a 2-min battle minion (construct). Kill the adherents near the outcast arrakoa to get keys to unlock Ball&Chains to get a 2-min battle minion (arrakoa). Continue killing and looting until your progress bar is full, then return to your garrison to turn in the quest.

Assault on Skettis is a possible daily quest offered by your Garrison for 800 Apexis Crystals.

I have only found one way into the mountains where Skettis is, and it goes through Gordal Fortress, where there is a purple and blue fire wall keeping you out until you progress through Talador's questing.

All area's on the map that show water are gated through waterfalls.

Commento di Dalylah

Fly to Akeeta's Hovel (65,17) in Shadowmoon Valley. Follow the trail north. Skettis starts at 60.67, 10.44.

Commento di Draewind

Back of the FIRST Spires of Arak quest area (North).

Almost verticle path @ 45.6, 11.8

Commento di SeyonMas

Here is the exact way to do it, so it doesn't take you FOREVER.

Land at Akeeta's Hovel, walk up the path and look for an NPC near the stone arch.

He is your hand-off, go fight the mobs, get the keys to free the slaves.

Fight more mobs with freed slaves, the slaves have a buff that says their "morale".

Morale becomes progress when you take slave back to the hand-off and turn them over.

Each slave has a 5 minute timer. I don't know why.

With 4 slaves and 10 mob kills I got 30% progress. It is much faster than anything else.

Commento di kintotech

This is next to impossible to complete with other players around due to the bottleneck for keys it creates, and the fact that mobs you don't tag don't count towards your bird guy's morale.

Commento di cranial

Literally the worst quest ive done in warlords.
The key dropping mobs create a bottleneck, and opposing faction players can grief you by killing your freed NPC minions.

I suggest going to do this quest at a non-peak time.

Commento di Mysterons

A big thing to know is that there is an overall Objective status bar that lets you know how far along you are. My Omen meter was covering it and I kept thinking I had to get to 100% on a group of 4 followers before turning them in.
It adds up your progress so there is no need to max out your followers like this.

Commento di Maddhawk

So first thing is first, you will more than likely find this quest to be a massive PITA.

To make it smooth as possible you will want a group. Get the quest inside your Garrison Town Hall from the able next to Scout Valdez. Then grab a flight to Akeeta's Hovel in the north east most portion of Spires of Arak. Technically the flight hub is in Shadowmoon. Follow the path north.

Now that you have the quest and are at the location you need to be at, hopefully you brought a group with you. If not check the LFG tool under Premades, Questing and see if there is a group. Barring that you can just /1 General to get a group together.

At the top of your screen will be a progress bar. There will be a second one under your quest tracker. The one under the quest tracker is the main bar for the quest completion. The bar at the top middle of your screen is the moral tracker for freed Arakoa while they are still following you.

Time to start killing. Look first for the Laborer Masters. They hold the keys to the imprisoned Arakoa who will be the key to preserving your sanity during this quest. I like to round up 2-5 keys before I free any prisoners. Once you and/or the others in your party all have several keys start freeing prisoners. You will gain a 5 minute buff for each prisoner you free.

During this time all hostile kills you make will contribute to their happiness. The higher it is the higher the top progress bar will fill. When you are down to about 1 minute make a bee-line for the closest "road" exit to Skettis. Just outside the ruins will be an Arakoa in shadow bubble. Talk to him to free the imprisoned Arakoa following you. Their total moral will transfer to your primary quest completion tracker. Each 1% of moral will result in 1% of completion. This is FAR faster than straight out farming mobs for completion. Do this 3-4 times and you can easily complete this daily.

If you fail to turn in your prisoners before the buff runs out, you will not gain any completion bonus from their moral. That moral will be lost, so make sure you head to free them with a minute left on your timer.

I noticed the big Ravens gave the most moral. After that the bigger Adherents gave the next best amount. Then you have the golems and finally the Laborer Masters themselves gave the least moral per kill.

Hope this helps preserve people's sanity!

Commento di agentrock

Some clarification for those who are still confused, this is the way I understand it:

The bar you need to bar the most attention to is the one on the right under the quest. This tells you how far you've progressed in the quest.

The point is to kill the mobs; this helps fill the bar on the right. Sometimes the mobs drop keys to free the Outcasts around you. The freed outcasts then help you fight more mobs. As you fight with the Outcasts, the bottom bar fills. The Outcasts have a 5-minute timer and much be "turned-in" before the timer runs out or the bottom bar goes back to zero. Also the Outcasts cannot die or it goes to zero then too.

The point of turning in the Outcasts is that it helps fill the bar on the right that much quicker. Basically, the more the bottom bar is filled when you turn them in, the more it will fill the bar on the right. Filling the bottom bar completely is not necessary and indeed is impossible if you are soloing (at least until everyone starts getting better gear) so don't worry about that. Just make sure you pay attention to the timers on the Outcasts so that you turn them in before the time runs out.

The NPC you turn the outcasts into is right at the beginning of the area.

To the best of my knowledge, this is the way this quest works and I wanted to share it since a lot of people seemed to be confused.

As someone mentioned, there are artifacts and power cores to help kill mobs too however at the moment I am writing this I cannot comment on how those work since the only ones I have personally come across have been bugged.

Commento di Wizax

Guys...things being said about worst quest ever etc...is coming from dimbulbs...this quest is one of the easiest dailys i have done so far....Dont pay attention to these guys. They didnt take the time to figure out the quest...deleted it and came here to cry. They are looking at the red bar in the birds you have freed box...and as they go away (they only last 5 min helping u fight) that bar goes backwards...THAT IS NOT THE BAR YOU WANT TO LOOK AT. Look at the blue bar that shows advancement of the quest in the objective box...that shows you your REAl advancement. This is what you do......you kill those bird men to get keys...you free 4 bird men...when they oldest one is down under 5 min you run to one of the golden dots on your mini map and turn them in...you get a crap ton of advancement on the REAL bar...rinse and repeat 4-5 times and your done...EASY daily for 800 shards.

Commento di 1384561

Soooooo, this quest wouldn't be a real pain in the arse if:

- There was a clear description on how you should go about doing it
- Players weren't crippled by a shockingly low amount of mobs in the area that makes tagging a race against whoever is the fastest (which can be a problem, especially in highly populated realms)

This means you're in for a lot of running around like a headless chicken and, to be perfectly honest, this quest's design is simply appalling.
However, if there are not that many people around and you know exactly how this works, it's possible to do it without losing the plot.
Before going over the steps you want to do to complete this utter bollocks of a quest as quickly as possible it's important to understand that the progress bar in the middle of the screen is a morale bar linked to the prisoners you free while the progress bar for the quest is in the objectives on the side of your screen.

1) Fly to Akeeta's Hovel (65,18 - Shadowmoon Valley) and follow the road going north
2) Kill some mobs to get a few talon keys (good luck with the tagging!)
3) After you freed 3 / 4 of those scrawny things keep killing stuff until you fill up the morale bar to around 20% - 25%
4) Run towards the npcs you can speak to in order to turn the freed prisoners in (they should be marked by a yellow dot in your minimap) and to receive extra progress according to the quantity of morale you accumulated
5) Rinse and repeat a few more times and you should be done

Hope this helps.

Commento di Amerelock

The objective of this quest is to fill up the BLUE BAR not the red bar...

With that being said, you can just kill mobs in the area to fill up your bar
OR you can kill Caposquadra di Vetta dei Cieli to loot Chiave dell'Artiglio in order to save Esiliato Arakkoa.

I consider the red bar to be like a bonus objective in addition to killing the mobs. Once the Esiliato Arakkoa are rescued you will have a 5 minute timer (where your buffs are displayed) to have them assist you in killing mobs...

They MUST be turned in before the timer runs out to Esiliato Veggente dell'Ombra who is outside Skettis at coords 59,11.

The red bar will only fill up when you have Esiliato Arakkoa as one of your followers and you kill the mobs in the area...
The higher the red bar is when you turn them in the higher the blue bar will fill up.

Commento di BlinkyDrakkin

While the quest itself isn't difficult, the presentation is quite unintuitive.

I managed to get to the questing area but, since my quest objective simply said "Travel to Stonefury Cliffs" I assumed that Stonefury Cliffs would be a sub-zone where I'd at least talk to an NPC who'd give me the basics and point me in the right direction, updating my quest objective in the process. If there was anything like that, I never found it, as my quest marker was smack-dab in the middle of Skettis and, after getting sick of looking for the part where I could complete the "Travel to Stonefury Cliffs" objective, I finally asked a guildmate about it. You just go there, kill things, free the outcasts, etc. As I said, it was fairly easy, but the quest itself gives no indication that you should just go ahead and do these things.

Commento di jameinel

I did this today and the rules had changed. There was no Darkcaster that I could turn the mobs in to, though I did still have the 5 minute timer and the morale bar at the top (which drops when one of your helpers times out.)

However, the only thing that obviously made the Objectives progress bar move (as opposed to the morale bar) was to free the arakkoa. Killing mobs didn't do anything for progress, though every mob I killed seemed to drop a key (I still have 2 spare keys in my bags).

This actually makes the quest really straightforward an easy if it read "free arakkoa slaves" as the objective (rather than Travel to Stonefury Cliffs as the objective.:)

I don't know if they decided the old way of having to kill mobs, get morale up, then turn them in was too buggy/confusing, but having learned it I struggled when it changed again.

Commento di Annaillesa

I did this quest for the second time today, and I had the same issue that the poster below me (jameinel) had. There was no Darkcaster to turn the slaves into. I ran around and looked everywhere just to make sure I wasn't missing him, and he wasn't in the same spot he was last time I did it ( I remember where he was last time because from his location I could see the rare skull showing Klikixx on my minimap). So, I had to do it the exact way jameinel described, which was MUCH more time consuming than last time I did it via escorting the slaves to safety. Killing the mobs did nothing to move my blue progress bar along. Freeing an arakkoa slave, however, gave me 2% for each slave freed. So, in total I had to free 50 slaves and then I got credit for the quests completion. I'm thinking the Darkcaster NPC not appearing as he should is a bug.

Commento di Canunja

Hopefully this helps a little (Most of it was covered already, I'm sure, but here it is in a different manner):

This is done where the map indicates. You will see a slave camp sort of thing. In the area, more toward the "entrance" of this slave camp, there is an Outcast Darkscryer. Remember where he is.

To start, you need to kill the Skyreach Labormasters. Unlike other assaults, you do not get % for just killing mobs here. You are actually looking for Talon Keys. Once you collect around 4 (or more, you will need more anyway), go to the opposite end of the camp from where the Darkscryer is.

This is where the fun and sometimes, frustration begins. You can free up to 4 Arakkoa Outcasts at a time. Any more will not show up at all (I have tried). They have a 5 minute "buff" to get them to the Darkscryer. You have to talk to him to turn in the outcasts.

The more morale you have by the time you get there, the better. Killing mobs in this area raises morale, and of coarse, losing an Outcast dramatically decreases it. At times, I've had it reset to 0 off one loss... And of coarse, Morale decreases naturally as well. So keep killing, or turn them in.

On a PvP server, this gets a lot harder. The Outcasts will attack anything that hits you or them, or that you hit, accidental or not. So if an enemy druid starfalls near you, you just lost your outcasts. If an enemy faction member runs through you AoE for whatever reason, the outcasts will then chase after them. I have lost countless Outcasts to this alone.

Just abandon this quest

Commento di AveryZan

Maybe I am challenged but I had a hard time finding this. My second time around though I found a pretty easy path. Head to the trail below the Howling Craig in Spires of Arak that heads north. (starts around 58, 27) Follow it up to the Hermit Palefur, directly to the right of him there is a trail (59,14). It looks steep but you can take it straight up and it will lead you to where you have to go for the daily area.

Now for the daily itself I was a bit confused as to what to do. First of all the most confusing thing for me is you are trying to fill the blue daily bar on your quest tracking, not the red bar that's dead center of your screen. You can do this by zerging enemies, but I found the best way is to kill the guards and collect their keys. Use the keys to open the chains on the slaved birdman. They will follow you around for a few minutes and help you kill stuff. After you have some slaves following, you can turn them into a stealthy NPC (59,11). This grants a whole lot of the blue bar, your red bar will probably reset which made me frustrated until I understood how it works, but don't worry this is meant to happen. Last thing I will mention is this super easy in a group, if there are people around doing it and they are willing, group with them. I finished this the second time around in 3 minutes with a couple of others and all of us got the same credit. Hope this helps, GL.

Commento di 387891

I would strongly recommend against ever taking this quest, as you always have an option. In all honesty, taking nothing and just not doing the Apexis quest is a better option because you always find something more productive to do in World of Warcraft than quests like these.

The quest is basically impossible to complete in any sort of timely fashion - the area is hard to traverse and has very few mobs to tag, it is a race to tag any that spawn, and you need to kill a large number of them. It does not help that the game itself gives virtually no help in any part of the quest, from finding the quest zone to what you are actually supposed to be doing.

TL;DR version: This quest is the Blackrock Depths of WOD. Avoid at all costs, unless its 2 a.m. and nobody else is playing.

Strategy and Mob Percentages

Obtain Chiave dell'Artiglio from Skettis mobs to free Arakkoa slaves. Continue to fight enemy mobs with the slaves as enemy kills buff their morale. Turn the freed Arakkoa into Esiliato Veggente dell'Ombra before their 5 minute buffs runs out and you will get 1% quest completion for every 1% morale earned.

Killing more elite mobs awards higher morale and quest completion, and you can also loot artifacts and crystals for progress.

You can also get the Ben Nutrito buff by killing Piumalesta Guizzante before they finish eating the fish they just grabbed.

Commento di Reddervish

After 10 minutes of killing mobs and only getting up to 2% on my completion bar and not understanding the big gold bar in the middle of the screen, and attacking the Boss and having him take 0 damage after I beat on him for 2 minutes, and after not being able to pick up ANY of the several glowing 'bonus' items, I decided to come here after exiting in the middle of Skettis.

So. what about the boss?

Why can't I pick up highlighted bonus objects?

Is there Skettis reputation for the kills?

I do have a couple keys, now I know what to do with them by reading the above. Although I did read that this quest has changed and maybe some of what was written in the OP has changed.

I may just skip it this time

SIgned... Mr. Frustrated

Commento di Aros

I had one Talon Key left after completing this quest. If you have lots of bag space it looks like you may be able to keep them until you get the quest again.

I always have full bags so I threw mine away.

Commento di Trilobite

This is the one daily I would suggest you do solo, unless your server is so busy that you have no choice (and in that case I would actually recommend you do the pvp instead, truly it will be less frustrating).

Getting the quest done depends on getting the keys and the drop rate does not seem to scale with the group. Also, a lot of people pick up the keys and don't know what to do with them. It took way longer to do this quest in a group of 40 than on my own.

Commento di Heidimus73

I found that doing this in a big raid group is a pain, because group members share the loot and keys are hard to get in a 40 man raid group.

So I did it solo in the area just after you enter. Found keys almost every kill. Released 4 slaves after looting 4 keys and let the morale bar go up. After the first few minutes of fighting my morale bar was 43% I turned the prisoners in. Did this twice and I was done. Just remember to turn in the prisoners before your buff dissapears.

Commento di Boodicca

This quest is awful in a group. It is easy if you are NOT in a group.

This quest is not about killing mobs. It is about killing mobs while you are escorting prisoners to safety.

How to: Bring a bodyguard with you and kill things until you have four talon keys, which drop off the Arakkoa, especially the labormasters. You will not see the blue bar filling up hardly at all. That is OK.

When you have four keys, rescue four prisoners close together by clicking on the ball on their ball and chain.

Now you have four prisoners with you. You have 5 minutes before they despawn. Kill as much as you can with them while you work your way to one of the darkscryers that you turn them in to. This is when the red morale bar will start filling up. They enjoy watching their enslavers die.

The higher you get the red morale bar, the more blue completion bar you get when you turn in the prisoners. Just turn them in before they despawn. Rinse and repeat. I did it in two sets of prisoners easy after a miserable raid grind the day before.

The reason it doesn't work in a group is that you don't get morale from other people's prisoners, and if you are in a group you are competing for keys and prisoners. You get credit for their kills, but only a tiny amount that will have you grinding for an hour or more.

Commento di 1434019

Do yourself a favor if there are a lot of people there abandon it and take the pvp quest for 1000 shards. The area is tiny, competing for keys against however many others is a pure pain and after you do that you will spend more time fighting the other faction, dying to 3-5 of them gang-killing you watching your freed prisoners despawn and having to start over again farming keys. Just cut out the frustration and go for pvp from the beginning, you'll be less upset. Now if you don't have the above conditions most of the pita part of this is eliminated and you can follow the other strategies suggested.

Commento di Gunslinger

SAVE YOUR KEYS! The keys do not disappear when you turn in the quest.

Commento di crisma

I don't know if this has been said, but you can store the extra Talon Keys you get from mobs and use them the next time you get this daily.
As of personal experience, when there are too many players in Skettis having a big number of freed slaves doesn't help you increase your morale significantly faster, so the best way I found to complete the quest is to free one arakkoa at the time, fetch him to the NPC, and then free another one. If you happen to have a large number of keys , you might free more slaves.

In general, don't free two slaves at the same time if you have just one single key.
Save up one key so that after you fetch the slaves you can start to raise morale right away
While the morale rise up slightly faster, it's not worth the risk of ending fighting without slaves, as the progress % you get from just killing mobs is really small.

Commento di Symon1616

This quest is so easy once you figure it out. Go into the entrance somewhat near one of the Outcast Darkscryers (There are two of them. One just outside each entrance).

Start killing any of the hostile mobs until you get a "Talon Key". When you get a talon key, free one of the slaved Arakkoa and they will fight beside you. Kill enough mobs to get 4 keys so you can release 4 enslaved Arakkoa to fight beside you.

Once you have 4 Arakkoa fighting with you then just kill any hostiles. This will help fill up the big bar in the middle of your screen. The further it fills, the harder your 4 Arakkoa will fight for you.

Your Arakkoa buddies will only fight for you for 5 minutes. So just before their 5 minutes are up you need to go to the Outcast Darkscryer and turn them in (you can turn them in without them being too near you. Just talk to the Darkscryer).

This will usually give you enough experience to complete "Assault on Skettis". Takes about 6 minutes if you do it this way. No need for a group at all.

Commento di ToasterHypnosis

For Allies who don't feel like getting to Skettis the long way, Piuma di Aviana makes for a great short-cut into the zone. Just run to Gul'Var (slightly South West from the Garrison) in Shadowmoon Valley and you can jump the mountain and into Skettis! Saves a ton of time, and gets you there in style.

Commento di Potatoaim

Want to get this done in 5-6 minutes? Just kill mobs to get 4 keys first, then grab 4 slaves at the same time so they all have the same CD. Once you have the 4 slaves just kill mobs to fill the morale bar all the way and then turn in.

I have done this more than enough times to know that this will work every single time. 4 slaves with 100% morale will be more than enough to complete the quest in one trip.

Commento di OldWolf2

The locations of the "checkout" points to hand followers in are:

47,9 (west)
52,5 (north)
60,12 (east)

For the east one, from the main area you have to jump off the waterfall or run down a big path full of mobs.

Commento di TheManCalledZee

I spent agonizing months waiting for one daily to complete the Securing Draenor achievement. I had no idea, you could do that manually through Scouting Missives. I am hoping this posts helps save some of you some time and agony.

Sergeant Crowler (A) and Sergeant Grimjaw (H) in your garrison sells the Scouting Missives. They are picked up as a quest items, and upon completion, turned in to Scout Valdez (A) or Shadow Hunter Ukambe (H), next to your daily mission table.

Also: you can complete a missive, even if you have already completed the daily from your garrison table for that day. I did Pillars of Fate (table) and then Iron Siegeworks (missive), back to back.
