I put on my robe and wizard hat...

Comment by AnnatarLG

When you get this quest, there's two quest givers on the other side of the building. You do not need these quests in order to continue with this questline.

Comment by midsomer

The path to the top of the hill is on the north-eastern side, marked by torches.

Comment by 760283

Coordinates are 47,21

This was a pretty decent quest. It gives really good money and exp.

Comment by twistedtwilight

This is degrading for an 85 mage in a full tier set to be told he needs to wear a Dingy Wizard Hat to be a "convincing mage".

Comment by zaccari

I can only guess this changed with Cataclysm. The new coordinates are 47, 18. Head around to the north side of the mount and you will find it east of the Horde flag.

Comment by 957107

do you get to keep the hat?

Comment by Gloryan

I really really hoped this hat would say 'wizzard' on it. But it doesn't.

Comment by legewiel

* Entrace at 47.8 18.2
* Go up following the torches
* Get near him and the icon on his head will change
* Talk to him to complete the quest

Comment by TRexyy349

Not EVERYONE has cords,folks. Please specify WHICH hill it is on. I am totally lost on this quest. I did a couple quests in Sable Ridge (IS THAT where Xylem is? He used to NOT BE THERE), initially, but I cant find the stupid hill he is on, and this whole list of comments is as helpful as shooting the breeze. Would SOMEONE PLEASE tell me how they found him, WITHOUT cords, pls. This would be most useful. Thank you

Comment by Desiko

The Mage won't talk to me. I've /reload as well as dropped quest and picked it back up. I made sure to jump through the rings and everything. Frustrating. And yes, I'm wearing the hat. Am I missing something else?

Comment by Grizela

Your hat is missing?

You clicked on it and it disappeared? Make sure that Show Helm is checked on Interface/Display !

Comment by Killerprema

Xylem is near the graveyard in the middle of a spiral looking hill on your mini map!

OR!

Those who do not have cords...look on your whole map, the little hill/mountain spot on the top of the name 'Darnassian Base Camp' is where you can find him! :) Hope it was helpful

To pick the quest up find Sorata at the Northern Rocketway Exchange (42.67, 25.20). He's not on the tip of the Bilgewater Harbor as the map suggests for his NPC.

Comment by WoWGnGP

Comment by ownleewun234

47.16 20.77 is the location of the image of archmage xylem. I had a hard time finding his location because it seems the quest is bugged. I had to click him to get the question mark above his head to turn yellow. I hope this helps.

Comment by Nikilla42

I made a video on the whole questline + the trials for anyone who needs a guide :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oe5A2fMZtgU

Dressed to Impress

Put on your new wizard hat and then speak to the Image of Archmage Xylem just northeast of the Northern Rocketway Exchange.

	Approach Archmage Xylem while wearing your Wizard Hat (1)

Provided item:

	Dingy Wizard Hat (1)

Description

Every man's got to learn his own lessons I suppose.

Here, take my wizard hat. I have no doubt that he'll take you on as an apprentice if you look the role... you just might have to jump through some hoops first. Tiny flaming hoops, suspended over spikes, with spinning blades on the other side.

You should be able to find an image of Xylem on top of that hill to the northeast.
