Kommentar von Orik

One of the orcs is in the keep and another one lis located inside those houses below the bridge. If you looking at Durnhold from the front of it, it's on the left side for the one located inside the house.

Kommentar von Saeljfkklhen

The premise of this quest is simple. Free two orcs from imprisonment. To complete this task, you must find four key personnel.

Drull, an Orc that you need to free.
Tog'thar, another Orc that you need to free.
Jailor Eston, drops the necessary Dull Iron Key, used to free Drull.
Jailor Marlgen, drops the necessary Burnished Gold Key, used to free Tog'thar.

First, a note on freeing the Orcs. On occasion, using the key on the Locked Ball and Chain will produce a "Failure!" message. If this happens, don't worry. Just keep using it. It appears that the mechanic emulates the lockpicking mechanic, so this is pretty much expected. I cannot confirm that these can be lockpicked, but others on this page claim it can be, at ~100 skill.

I would also reccomend going to Tog'thar first, as one of the spawns for Jailor Eston is nearby, and dropping down to Drull when the jailor is up near Tog'thar achives little more than a need to slaughter your way back up. Not that a slaughter is a bad thing, mind you.

The Orcs are static spawns. The Jailors, however, have been switched to dynamic spawns. Each have a set of potential spots in which they may spawn. WoWHead claims three, but I've only seen them each at two. I slaughtered the poor fellows for a good hour, so I feel that these two are accurate.

Finding Drull:
To find Drull, enter Durnholde Keep from the South. There will be a bridge in front of you. Jump the wall, right on the left side of the bridge. Be careful, however, as there are a few (Usually one or two, more if you have a pet and forget to dismiss it, as it will take the long way and bring some company.) mobs that likely will aggro when you do so. Face West, and directly ahead of you there should be two buildings. The closest one (which runs East to West, not North to South like the furthest one.) is your building of interest. Inside, at the far end, is Drull. Sometimes there's a Solid Chest next to him, too.

From Drull to Tog'thar:
To arrive at Tog'thar from Drull, exit the building that contains Drull via the doorway furthest from him, on the northern face of the building. Face East from the steps. Fight your way East, and under the bridge. Once you have passed under the bridge, follow the Northern wall until you come to a pair of steps leading up the wall. Take these steps. Once you reach the top, face Northwest, and you should see a road. Go to the road and travel along it to the South. You will eventually reach a "T"-Style intersection. Read on in the "Finding Tog'thar" section directly below from said intersection to find Tog'thar.

Finding Tog'thar:
To find Tog'thar, again enter Durnholde Keep from the South. This time cross the bridge and immediately turn to the East. Fight your way along this path until you reach a "T"-Style intersection. One path will head West and up, the other will head North, and slightly down. Take the Western path. A very short distance up this path, you will encounter the gate to the Keep itself, which is now destroyed. Fight your way through the arch. Tog'thar should be 25-30 yards north of you, easily visible.

As mentioned previously, finding the Orcs is good and all, but it's rather moot if you have no way to free them. Both of the jailors appear to have a spot very close to the Orc they're holding captive, and one that takes a bit of searching. Both are listed here.

Finding Jailor Esten:

Right in front of Drull. Just find Drull, and he'll be ~5 yards away.
Traverse to Tog'thar. Right before you reach the entrance to the Keep itself, there will be a small group of Syndicate henchmen near some trees. He can sometimes be found there.

Finding Jailor Marlgen:

Follow the directions to Tog'thar. However, once you reach the entrance to the Keep, do not enter, but continue along the path past the keep. Fight your way until you reach a defunct tower. He can often be found right in front of it.
Reach Tog'thar. When you pass thru the arch, he'll be right in front of you, slightly off to your right.

Congratulations! You've just committed a jailbreak! Revel in your self-worth and value to the Horde!

On an added note, while you're here you can complete the following quests as well:

::EDIT::
Talk about feeling like an idiot -- I've fixed the West<->East mixup. Let's blame my parents for teaching me left was right, and right was left. Yeah. It's their fault (29-07-08).

I've also updated this for the jailor's dynamic spawns (29-07-08).

...And touched it up, made it less confusing (29-07-08).

When I first got to drull, I didn't have the key. Got the key, came back ... and he was dead. I've been waiting for him to respawn for about 15 minutes. He hasn't respawned yet.

Kommentar von Crowblood

Drull is at 75, 41

For me: Jailor Easton was at 79, 41 (He has multiple spawn points so he may not be here) and before I got back to Drull he had respawned next to him.

Tog'thar is at 79, 39

For me: Jailor Marlgen was at 79, 40 (May have multiple spawn points as well)

Kommentar von 4928

They can cast ensalvement, which MC you

Kommentar von bnetgamer77

All I'd like to add is...I believe this quest is bugged.

When they Mind control'd me - After I had got off all my DoT's and pet on them, I ended up killing the jailer and un-able to loot.

As in when they Mind control you, and DoT's/pet tick through, it dosen't consider you where the killer, hence you don't get the loot.

Kommentar von Majil

Useful tips! For me the first jailor was actually up by the ruined keep, close to the second one. Another tip is that there is a tree resting against the wall, at the end of the courtyard where Drull is. If you are careful you can run up this tree onto the wall, then along the wall back to the bridge and so get from there up to the ruined keep without going past so many Syndicate staff. Likewise in reverse if you need to come back to Drull, as I did.

Kommentar von 49530

Actually it isn't bugged, they just spawn at random places. It was at first for me the jailer corresponding to the other was at the others area. When I finnaly did it. Jailer Marlgen was at 77,40 and Jailer Easton at 79,40

Kommentar von Thottbot

Drull is in the lower area, left hand side, in the first of the broken buildings.

Tog'thar is in the keep up the hill.

To free them, kill their jailor, and once you have looted the key, right click on the ball and chain to use it.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Cordinates are:

Tog'thar: 80,40
Drull: 75,42

Jailors will spawn around him usually, but sometimes a bit away, like on the road up to the prisoner or simmilar. Look around, they are there, level 24 Humanoids :)

Kommentar von Thottbot

both jailers are at the first blown-up house up the hill, mardigan is just inside then eston is outside byt the tree on the right, within the overall house footprint still

Kommentar von Thottbot

I freed them with lockpicking on level 100 in two tries.

Kommentar von Thottbot

I just killed the 2nd Jailer and got the key but it failed twice so i decided to use pick lock and it worked... increased my lockpicking skill as well... have fun with this one guys ;-)

Kommentar von Thottbot

The prisoner Drull is SW area of the hold. 75,42 is his coordinates. You have to go down and fight lots of em ugly hummies to get to cute Drull.

Kommentar von Thottbot

The fuss is that there are multiple spawn points for Eston. When my warrior did this quest Eston was in the building with the prisoner, but when my priest found him tonight Eston was at 79,43...next to a tree just outside the upper ruins where second prisoner is kept.

Kommentar von Thottbot

rogues can pick lock on chain with skill of LP 105

Kommentar von Thottbot

What I did to complete the quest:

I went up the hill to the 2nd level of the Keep and found Jailer Eston at the first turn in the road. Tried to kill but at 50% or so he MCed me and pulled me to him. Next attempt was the same. Third attempt I counterspelled, killed and looted the Dull key. No prisoner in sight. Forging ahead up the hill I found Margren (or whatever the 2nd jailer's name is) and got the gold key. He was right next to one of the prisoners. I failed the first attempt to open the ball and chain but was successful the 2nd time.

Went to the edge of the upper level and moved my cursor over all the huts in the lower level until I located my prisoner. Hopped down from the edge (rather than clearing to the hut from the ramp on the south side), killed the several NPCs in the general area and found Jailer Eston again, this time standing next to my 2nd prisoner. Killed him again, used the Dull key I'd found earlier, failed again on the ball/chain, tried again, was successful.

Note: If you do the cursor/hop down method and want to clear back out rather than hearthing, the ramp to get out is on the south side of the lower level.

Tip 1: Eston does move around. If you kill him and don't find the prisoner, keep looking. The dull key is for the prisoner on the lower level. The gold key is for the prisoner on the upper level.

Tip 2: To deal with the mind control issue with both jailers, I used counterspell. I don't know how other classes would handle this.

Tip 3: Get the 2 quests to kill the syndicate mages (for innocents' blood) and the syndicate rogues/watchmen. Completing 3 quests makes it much more worthwhile.

Tip 4: It's possible to "fail" when you right click on the ball/chain attached to their legs, even if you have the proper key(s). If it says failed, just try it again until it's successful.

Tip 5: This is soloable. There are no 3-man pulls, at most there are 2-man pulls. There are no elites. The jailers were regular level 24 NPCs for me.

Tip 6: Have fun! It's just a game. :P

Kommentar von Thottbot

You need exactly 100 LP to pick the locks. I know because when I stealthed in I had only 93. Luckily, there are tons of locked footlockers, which respawn at an incredible rate. I kept checking at 95 and 100, and was able to pick their shackles at exactly 100.

Kommentar von Thottbot

1) It doesn't matter which prisoner you free first. One is on the West end of the pit, and the other is at the top of the knoll (which is accessible by following the path straight from the castle gates).

2) If you choose to free the prisoner on the West end first then make use of the tree stump that has fallen into the pit, and which leads up onto the Nothern wall. You can use this stump to easily descend AND ascend from the pit, thus making it easy to avoid fighting all of the mobs to get in and out of the West pit.

3) Enslave didn't prove to be too much of a problem for me because it also automatically heals you (and it also put my mana at full as well).

4) If you decide to free the prisoner on the knoll first, then it's a simple matter to get to the 2nd prisoner by coming back down to the bridge, and instead of crossing it just jump on the little rampart above the pit and proceed to the West end. Once there you'll see the fallen tree stump that you can use to descend into the pit. The prisoner and jailor were both in the 2nd house from the corner when I went.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Heh, I got the key off Eston and went down to rescue Drall, and apparently some Alliance guy had killed him just before I got there. No problem, I walked up to the ball and chain (even though Drall's body was halfway across the room) and right-clicked on it, and ouila, quest complete. Ka-ching.

Kommentar von Thottbot

I thought I'd be slick and drop in the backside of the building Drull is in. Dopey me forgot to use the Eye of Kilrogg beforehand to see who else was in the building.

I stumbled upon Eston and three other mobs all together by Drull. = Dead 'luni

The moral of the story...check out the building first if possible. :)

Edit: The hole in the ceiling above the building is not always the best source of information :)

Kommentar von Thottbot

they are both staying in middle of guards;).'
i think that you need a friend wiht u if u are lower then lvl 22=P
on hellscream (server) u get alot of help (y)

Kommentar von Thottbot

TO ADD TO THE POST ABOVE, THIS IS ALSO A GREAT PLACE TO CRACK SOME SKULLS FOR THE Souveniers of Death quest! 4 for 1 baby

Kommentar von Thottbot

Be carefull not to die, they respawn very fast =D

Kommentar von Thottbot

The minimum lvl for lock picking the guys free is deffinately 100. I tried at every 5 lvls starting at 85. Just thought I'd let you all know.

Kommentar von Thottbot

The forge and anvil under the bridge in Durnehold Keep are useable by player blacksmiths.

So if you have a need to smelt or smith your ore, clear the area and utilize the local facilities rather than going to the Undercity.
Better keep the job a quick one, though.

If your quests take you in the direction of Hillsbrad, there is also a forge/anvil combo in the smithery there, also useable once you clear the area of mobs.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Just have to say The Rescue is one of my favorite quests. It has a real commando feel to it.
Had a lot of fun with my 26 Druid sneaking around, popping off the guards, rogues, shadowmages, and jailors and finally freeing the prisoners. Back when my Warrior first did this quest, it was fun scrambling around on rooftops and jumping mobs from above.
Kudos to Blizzard on this quest.

P.S.--
As someone already mentioned, the keys may fail. The Dull Iron Key failed twice for me before succeeding on the third try. The lock & key must have been made by Gnomes... ;)

P.P.S. --
IMO, the only real danger in this quest are the adds from runners, so be careful about your crowd control. Especially remain alert if a mage runs, because you may think a battle is over and be looting corpses only to suddenly notice that you have no life and a shadowmage that ran or aggroed off a runner is busy blasting you from afar.
So... mages first, and make sure they are dead before you move to another target.

Kommentar von Thottbot

One of them is in first broken down house to the left. The other one is in first broken down house on the right on the hill. Both jailors are there to.

I also found a blue while doing this quest in the keep. Silver-Linker Footguards expect to find em! <(-_-<)

Kommentar von Thottbot

Tog'thar is 80,40
Drull is 75,42

are correct locations

Kommentar von Thottbot

Since the addition of the built in Keyring, the keys from the two jailors may autoloot into your keyring. If this happens, the orcs won't respond as if you have the key if you try to talk to them but you can still unlock the chains directly by clicking on them (the chains) and bypassing the orc dialogue.

It took me a while to figure out why I wasn't getting the drop for one of the keys even after killing the correct jailor several times. >.<

Kommentar von Thottbot

I Have Waited for more than 2 hours at the spot 79.41 .. and no Eston has repspawned :((( .. this quest is buggy?

Kommentar von Thottbot

looking for him like 30 mins today him is at 79,41

Kommentar von Thottbot

In Durnhold Keep:

Drull- In the second house on the left.

Tog'thar: In the broken down keep up the hill.

* There personal guards should be near where they were held

Kommentar von Thottbot

I killed both jailers ..got 2 keys.. went to use the 1st key..and gone, not in my inventory,just disappeared..killed him again no key..so if u have issues it's not just you..finally I left the quest

Kommentar von Allakhazam

You have to get the gear symbol over the chain, then it will unlock

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Tog'thar (79,39) atop the path directly up the hill when you first enter the keep

Drull is at (75,41)

Kommentar von Allakhazam

before you do this quest, make sure that you have the WANTED: Syndicate Personnel quest that you get from a signpost in tarren mill. Also i found the first jailor by folloing the path striaght into the hold as it makes a hairpin turn there is a watchtower thing on your right. He was just up there walking around under it. The second i found right next to Tog'thar in a ruined part of the keep a little up the path also on your right surrounded by some watchmen. The jailors are both lvl 24.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Jailor Eston doesn't have a long spawn time. He just spawns at multiple locations. I've seen him spawn next to Drull and also next Tog'thar. So check both locations.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Target the lock ;o]

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Drull is located down in the valley to the west in one of the buildings, the only thing is... his jailor takes a while to spawn...

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I'm level 22 with 100 lockpicking and I picked Drull's lock easily. And Tog'thar.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Jailor Eston has a fairly good length of a respawn time. He is in the building in the valley to the west when you enter the keep.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

FYI: It's possible to pick the locks on the shackles. I was sick of waiting and tried clicking on the ball and chain. Lo and behold it started being picked.

I'm not sure if these can be added to the route in touring to practice your skill or whether they're only clickable when you have the quest. S'worth a try though...

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I tried to do this quest at level 24, solo, with a female hunter. As soon as I attacked Easton, my toon got charmed, then two other guys showed up and all three attacked me. I tried 4 times before I said screw it! The interesting thing is, I stayed around and watched (Yes, if you stand in the right place, you can watch without being attacked). I watched several male toons do this quest. None of them appeared to be charmed and all of them killed Easton. I'm wondering now if only the female characters get "charmed". If so, that sucks!

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I found Tog'Thar. He waqnted me to get the key off of Jailer Merlgan, which I did. When I went back to him he still talked to me as if I didn't have the key.

Maybe I'm doing something out of sequence?

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Now go back to Tog'Thar and right click on ball and chain. That will unlock the chains.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Just pick the lock. No need for keys! Mwahahahahahaha!

Kommentar von Allakhazam

this is a retarded Q, dont do it if you dont have to imo

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I still can't find Eston? The one Jailer.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

first kill those who have the keys.....
coords are good......
did this solo as lvl 25 undead warlock easy qs for me

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Anyone know if this is bugged? Have killed Merlgom(sp?) 3 times and still no burnished key.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I found both jailors near Tog'thar. Eston was next to the doorway to the top building, and Merlgan (?) was on the other side of the doorway, on the hill leading to another crumbled building.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

This quest is a prerequisite to " Infiltration"

Kommentar von Allakhazam

This quest so thoroughly pissed me off at level 20. I would have no problem killing the level 24 jailors, but everytime I attack them, 2 guys come out of *!@#ing nowhere and ambush me. Not recommended to do by yourself at level 20, unless you're a tank, and/or have several methods to heal yourself.

I had no problem getting the keys.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I couldn't pick these at 92 lockpicking skill so.....make sure yours is higher before you try :)

Kommentar von mopsy3

Jailor Eston in classic is now at the top of the hill outside where you find Tog'thar to the right a little at coords 79:41

Kommentar von Coldbear

FFS Blizzard. You free the Orcs ...and they just stand there. Seems they instantly reset to being jailed again. /facepalm

Kommentar von Wimbleton

With all due respect to the Devs, this is one of those quests that should say.. "Bring a friend along.' The mobs are not particularly tough but they respawn pretty quickly and there are a lot of them. Dozens. Maybe hundreds. They'll run off when they get to a certain level of health and return with a friend you hadn't seen before, and then the survivor of that encounter runs off to bring another friend etc. Mages are particularly interesting because they can two-or-three-shot you so you need to stop fighting your current target (who won't return the favor) and get to the mage before he gets off that second or third shot.

The jailers and some other mobs can "Charm" you, which means you're frozen in place while your antagonist runs off to find reinforcements. Assuming your survive that, the two last guys you just killed have respawned and are ready to go at it again. At least you'll get a lot of XP when you're not dead but unfortunately the mobs I met didn't drop much of anything other than the keys, which aren't much of a souvenir when you realize you've spent your entire lunch hour killing trash mobs and haven't really gotten much closer to the captives. At least you have the keys for awhile.

Since this is Classic, the GY will be in some exotic place that is four or more time zones away from Durnholde Keep. This one is in Ljubljana, the capitol of Slovenia. Nice place; not on the Adriatic but not too far from Trieste. You get extra points if you can pronounce it.

Kommentar von megadett

When coming to do this quest you might want to get the WANTED banner quest as well which is close to the banshee lady. I didn't and I'm having to head back to the keep...

Kommentar von Vortima

Not sure if this is bugged, but I was unable to use the key on the chains?. Key is in backpack and when I use it on the chains (even while standing on top of them) it says, "Too far away". The ball and chain itself is not interactable, as in I cannot click on it as though it was an object. Tog' thar has nothing to say except who to get the key from. I threw the key away and tried again, didn't work. I tried logging, didn't work. Disabled addons, made no difference.

Edit:
The old abandon and reacquire the quest did the trick. Worked as expected second time around
