Just uploaded a screenshot of where the quest ends. To get to the cave, head south from the road and when your screen flashes "Discovered Whelgar Excavation Site," look to your left (East). You should see a steep path running straight up the mountain. Follow that path up -- kill the raptor that gets in your way -- and cross a small bridge and the cave you need to get to should be right in front of you.

Also, in front of the cave is another dwarf who will give you the quest "Ormer's Revenge" (https://www.wowhead.com/cata/quest=294).

Entrance to excavation site is at 34,41 just by the road above the H in "Whelgar's" on the map.

Комментарий от 72187

A better, less raptor-infested entrance can be found through the mountains starting at 42,45 and the drop into the entrance is at 38,45

Комментарий от 72187

raptors go up to lvl 25 or 27 even (i think)

Комментарий от bEwaRe

I went over through the Dragonmaw orcs. Killed a 5-6 lvl 26-27.

Make sure you do the quest Ormer's Revenge while you're here. :]

To save anyone else from looking: There is no pre-quest to this. Longbraid never actually sends you this way, so don't worry about looking for him before accepting this.

Wetlands 34, 41 is the entrance to the Excavation site. You can see a ramp up the hill from here. Take it. Go into cave. Talk some and go back to Menthol Harbor for reward.

AT lvl 21 Mage:
Got 975 xp for finding the lady.
Got 490 xp for taking here note back to Menthol.

Level 1 could do this quest.

This quest is quite easy especially if there are other people around, up can run right up and your're done. I ran right up and back down in 30 seconds.
If no one has been there in awhile there may be about 3 raptors on the path up, i think around lvl 25-26, maybe a little lower

Комментарий от Thottbot

i tried the coordinates that u guys posted, and all of then were incorrect, except for the one telling u where the excavation starts.

merrin is at 38, 52. u need to go up a ramp on the western part of the site.

Комментарий от Thottbot

as you enter ramp look to left {WEST } you will see a path leading up -follow said path and the cave is ahead - couple Quest for area also there.
Dont got o the right ,into the Excavation area till you get Quests and finish first part of quest.

Комментарий от Thottbot

Yeah, there's a lot of faulty info in this thread. Seems some people have confused East with West, or perhaps are just jerks trying to get people killed.

Here's the correct info, combining the 3 correct bits of info from various posts here into one.

-The entrance to the excavation site is at 34,41.

-Once at the entrance, go up the ramp on the WEST side, or to your left as you enter.

-Merrin is at 38,52 in a cave at the top of the ramp. Level 22-23ish raptors may be guarding the ramp.

Комментарий от Thottbot

34,41 is correct for the entrance to the excavation site , and if you look at your map you are entering it from the NORTH so in turn your left with north being to your back, would make your left side EAST and that is the direction you want to go ignore the rest of the exacavation site, as soon as you get the little yellow words saying "you have discovered Excavation site" or what ever, look to your left,, Being true EAST on the map follow the lil broken down trail up and to the right and follow it to the cave , you may run into 1-3 raptors along the trail.You can then grab two more quests for that area before you head back to the harbour if you choose. Hope that clears everything up for those to follow :D

Комментарий от Thottbot

Here is the right Coords

38,52

Комментарий от Thottbot

well you follow the road out of the town and when you come across a man with a cart and a torch in his hand you go right towards the rock face. there should be some raptors around and an opening in the face of the rocks. you should see a little 'sign' that has a mining pick upon it relitively close to the raptors. and ther is the mining area.

Комментарий от Thottbot

Basically just go to the excavation site entrance(36,42). Bear left and then go up the huge hill, he's just a few feet into the cave. at lvl 28 i receive 900xp. IMO it was worth it.

Комментарий от Thottbot

Did this as a lvl 23 w/ no problem.

Комментарий от Thottbot

i got this quest at 21 also, so i have no idea what you are talking about...i'm lvl 25 and have had this for a while

Комментарий от Thottbot

why is the XP so different. I got 190 to get to Merrin and 95 to bring the letter back?

Комментарий от Thottbot

the higher lvl you are when you do the quest, the less xp you get

Комментарий от Thottbot

u know...i love this sight i just wish all u ppl would remember not everyone uses co-ordinates to find places...

Комментарий от Thottbot

If you do not use coordinates, you can view screen shot.
1. I found the site by going to the Angerfang encampment. Instead of going towards the mobs, I stayed right and took a dirt path up the mountain. The kills are easy as you can fight one at a time. The path brings you up the mountain and on the other side of a peak is the site, with a bunch of available quests (Omar Ironbraid outside the cave) and the Tarrel inside the cave. Solo'd as Level 29 Warlock.
2. Once I was there I found an easier path into the site, next to the road, near one of the ponds. Dirt path, hard to see, but with map should be findable.

Комментарий от Thottbot

very easy; solo'd it lvl 22 lock

got it 3rd slime

Комментарий от Thottbot

Im a lvl 28 druid, i got 1950 xp for it, and no, im not taking wrong;) tok me 2 mins. HEA HEA

Комментарий от Thottbot

Just don't go too far west. I completed this quest without any trouble from the giant crocs. If you see them, just head back east. i.e. Stay away from the coastline.

Комментарий от Thottbot

Ofc it is.. when u go to the excavation site u get more quests, well in my book that equals more exp, so this q whatever exp u get is worth doing.... lol..!

Комментарий от Thottbot

u say it's simple to find, yet here i am right in the place facing these damned raptors and i'm jumping on walls not able to find it! Some one plz tell me where the hell it is

Комментарий от Thottbot

wait i'm like on the wrong side...my bad LOL

Комментарий от Thottbot

it is an easy quest but at level 28 i got 1200 exp.

Комментарий от Thottbot

wow im dumb i went in the back way through about fifteen lvl 26-27 dragonmaw raiders i made it but it was extremly tough you can just go in by the road kill one lvl 23 raptor and bam but no i gotta be the dumb one :p

Комментарий от Thottbot

fyi on fri/sat nights, horde parties looooove to hit Whelgar's just before they raid Menethil Harbor. Attacking Whelgar's site is usually the first General Defense warning you see if you are in Menethil Harbor that lets you know they are coming. So, if you are already at the site, you wont have a warning. If you are there, reply to General Defense chat by how many you see/lvl's etc. to give Menethil time to gear up. If you aren't in the mood for a hordy-sandwich then you may want to try getting it done before 6pm CST on a Fri/Sat night. If you are a Rogue, dont forget a great place to up your lockbox skill is just outside Menethil Harbor in the Murloc camps. Do at the same time for one-stop shopping! (im lvl 26 NE Rogue for point of reference).

Комментарий от Thottbot

38, 51 are the Co-ordinates for the Cave entrance at were you enter talk to a guy and return to finish the Quest

Комментарий от Thottbot

Good quest, you get XP for just talking + you get 2 more quests in the excavation site. Definitely worth it.

Комментарий от Thottbot

tarrel rockweaver is on the right side ofthe bridge when u come from the wetlands to menenthil
cords ; 11,52

Комментарий от Thottbot

Its totally simple.

Комментарий от Thottbot

The entrance is at 34,41 in the wetlands. as soon as you walk in go left and you see the ramp. walk up the ramp where there might be some level 23-25 raptors then talk to the guy

Комментарий от Thottbot

POO

Комментарий от Thottbot

stay to the left, coming into the site. you can easily bypass the 24-27 raptors, tho there was a 23 down the bottom of the hill and a 22 on the bridge. looked like a pat. cake and pie.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

when you enter the excavation side it is left up hill and in to the cave.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

excavation site is on cosmos loc 34,45.
tarrel is in a cave up the hill, if u enter excavation site from north you see a path on your left side leading up the mountain hill, on top of it is a bridge then a little cave, no mobs on this path. he is at 38,41

Комментарий от Allakhazam

Hell, that makes things so much easier. Crikey! Still have to kill the dinos eventually, but now I can do it on my own time. :-)

Комментарий от Allakhazam

I searched all over the excavation site, couldn't find him. Didn't know which hill I was suppose to go up seeing as I don't know which way you came in from.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

Listed as a Level 24 quest. We had 3 lvl 23 characters (mind you, 2 druid's and a priest). We died often, and we would have died more had the Level 33 players not been around to save our skins...:-)

I will repost once I actually finish the quest!

Комментарий от Allakhazam

It was easy to get to Merrin, there is a steep trail running up the East wall of the excavation site, just run up here and she is at the top. Can also pick up the quests: Ormar's Revenge and Uncovering the Past here. Solo'd as a lvl 24 rogue, didn't use stealth, just walked right in.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

The entrance to the excavation area is not obvious; start looking for it on your east when you're in the Sundown Marsh area and it will pop out at you.

Just because this was probably the most frustrating quest i've ever encountered,
I've compiled a simple map to help noobs out.
So when you go through the entrance, hug the left hill and go up the giant ramp. I don't know what people are talking about when they say they had to fight 2 level 23 raptors, but be prepared
:)

Комментарий от Allakhazam

38;52

Комментарий от Allakhazam

Depending on whether or not someone has been there just before you, there are SOMETIMES two level 23 raptors on the path up to the cave.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

and where is this if you dont have cosmos :)

Комментарий от Allakhazam

"excavation site is on cosmos loc 34,45."

^ what does that mean? I can't find it.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

I couldn't find a path up the hill. Found the excavation site, but can't seem to get up any of the hills to the bridge...Grrrr....

Комментарий от Allakhazam

The moob you have to complete the quest is actually at 38 , 52 in a cave and not at 34 , 45 .. People if you want to help other that need help dont give wrong LOC. !

Комментарий от Allakhazam

To put it simply:

Entrance: 32,40
Merrin Rockweaver: 38,52

As BestBoy said, the mob is in a cave. To get there, turn left as you walk through the entrance, and there'll be a path going up and around the side of the hill. The cave is at the top of that hill.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

Lol it took me basically 45 minutes just to find the hill leading to the team. I kept on killing those raptors.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

how about telling us where the excavation site is

Комментарий от Allakhazam

Go north from Menethil Harbor. Take a right just after the last pond on your right hand side. It is not too far from Menethil so if you come to the sign for Dun Modr you have gone too far. You will see a sign, after you pass the sign you will see some raptors (you don't have to kill these just yet). Head towards your left and their will be a path leading up the mountain. At the bottom of it there will be a lvl 23 and a lvl 22 mottled raptor. Kill these unless you want to be chased up the mountain. You should be able to accomplish this quest with little to no difficulty at lvl 21+.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

As soon as you enter the excavation site, go to the left and up that hill and follow it up.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

I had to kill two lvl 23 raptors on the way up.
