Okay, here we go, the Diary is at 47.50 (the barn at Dalson's Tears), put up a screen shot of it. Now, after you grab the quest, run out to behind the barn and find a Wandering Skeleton (https://www.wowhead.com/wotlk/npc=10816). He drops a key that opens the outhouse, it's against the tree stump. When you use the key, it will release Farmer Dalson, a level 56 undead (https://www.wowhead.com/wotlk/npc=10836). Kill him, grab the key, and run in the nearby house and up the stairs, there you will find a cabinet. Goal, score!
Linked with the Locked Away quest, (https://www.wowhead.com/wotlk/quest=5060).

to open the diary is instant, so you could ignore everything and just run in and click it.

Used the diary, ran out and the damn mob was being kiled by the Scarlet.... /sigh now I have to wait for it to go away b4 I reuse the book because when I use it again, another one ain't spawning,

I'm having the exact same trouble. And YES, I'm trying to click on the outhouse with the blue question mark above it behind the barn. I've also killed the wandering skeleton directly behind the barn and received the key, tried destroying it and getting it again -nothing. I definately think this is bugged which ticks me off because I died twice getting into the barn to read the Fric*#$g diary!

I tried taking this quest, when i interacted with the book, it just said complete quest.
And that was all. I didn't get a new quest or anything. And I didn't get any exp. Might be bugged due to full inventory, since my inventory is full.

Quest bugged for me now, one week ago it worked. Here's the differences:

A week ago: I entered the big building first and clicked the cabinet. As nothing happened I checked here on wowhead what to do, went to the barn, clicked diary. Went to back of barn, killed Wandering Skeleton, used outhouse, killed mob, to cabinet and all fine.

This time: I entered barn first, while clearing the last two mobs the Wandering Skeleton spawn on me. I kill him before clicking the diary, then I wait for a repop. Scarlet humanoids attack him, I go all out nuke on him while he's at 92%, I take him down almost full but no loot for me. Waiting for repop, he spawn, I kill him and get key. Now I can't interact with the outhouse, just like people described here.

I'll send a GM ticket right away with the exact same info I wrote here. Assuming you are not allowed to hit the Wandering Skeleton before you used the diary?

Edit; GM replied just 10 mins after petition. Here's part of the dialogue:
GM: We are aware of this issue yada yada.
me: ok thanks. Hope the information I provided can help solve the quest (as I noticed a difference from where it work/doesn't work).
GM: Yes this also seems to happen if Farmer Dalson is killed too far away from the outhouse.
etc..

All in all; if what the GM says and my own recent experience from two alts is correct, this quest will work if you don't kill Wandering Skeleton before you have used the diary, and if you kill Farmer Dalson next to the outhouse.

After I did the quest with the diary, I saw a note in my log: "Mrs. Dalson' Diary" -- completed. I was a little confused but the skeleton will wander INTO the barn after about 4-5 minutes, if you want to just wait there. I would say it was about five minutes. The key dropped from the skeleton and I proceeded to open the outhouse. Killed old Farmer Dalson, waited for the disease to wear off (so I could stealth) and went up to the cabinet. Wallah!

The quest seems to be fixed now, or at least it wasn't bugged for me just now.

In case it is still bugged, and I just happened to get lucky and do it the "right" way, I'll do my best to describe exactly what happened. I read the diary after killing off all of the mobs inside of there, and then I went outside and killed the group of scarlet mobs because I accidentally aggro'd them. A few moments after I had killed them, the wandering skeleton aggro'd to me while I was drinking a few steps out the door to the barn. I killed, him, looted the key and started to make my way to the outhouse. I got feared into a ton of mobs so I ended up running far past the outhouse to drop aggro and heal up. Afterward, I walked up, right clicked the outhouse, went through a complete quest window, and then the farmer spawned on top of me.

Keeping the Scarlet units cleared allows you to see the Wandering Skeleton patrolling in and out of the building. It seems the Scarlet units were placed there to take out the Wandering Skeleton, just as with the Gibbering Ghoul and that set of Scarlet units in the Felstone Field.

This pretty much clears up the situation with a funny story to boot

评论来自 Freekstyle

I thought I should warn anyone trying to stealth in to get the quests in their respective buildings.

Watch out for the ->"Rotting Cadaver's"<- , they have a passive aura-AoE disease that knocks you out of stealth.
I found that out the hard way, and was pummeled to death by a not-so-fair-amount of mobs :/

Cheers ^^

so yes this quest is bugged but if you open a ticket a GM can fix it for a few minutes...thats what they did for me

Just did it today on live. No problems.

I accidently killed the wandering skeleton before reading the book, and the skeleton did not kill the book. Read diary, waited on respawn, got key on 1st kill. no problem.

评论来自 Filby

Does the book have a ! over it? Also can Horde do this quest?

评论来自 gamedisciple

Just to put in my $.02 there is a patrol of humans that wanders around the front of the barn where the book is found, they periodically engage with undead in the area and, if you wait for that, you can enter without problem from them.

However, when entering the building, be aware that there are 4 ghouls/skeletons in there. Two are toward the back so you may just be able to get the front two alone. Anyway, have a potion ready and do your best to drop the two front baddies, rest up, and then finish off the back.

Best of luck to you!

My info: (56 rogue at the time of post)

I noticed in earlier an post, someone had a issue when killing the Wandering Skeleton before reading the diary.
This is exactly what I did. I had killed the Wandering Skeleton, no key.
Went in the barn (which when by the outhouse facing the field, is the building on your left side),
read Mrs. Dalson's Diary, came out and waited for him to respawn.
Killed him again and he dropped the key.

(Bear in mind this whole time waiting for the respawn I was standing directly behind the outhouse between it and the bushes right next to the tree stump; as to not run into the "too far from the outhouse" issue once Dalson was spawned.)

After accepting the outhouse quest, Farmer Dalson appears.
*Note: For me there was two Blighted Zombies levels 53 and 52
(one behind each of the buildings closest to the outhouse)
And a Skeletal Terror level 54 (between the buildings) which all three aggro along with Dalson.

Killed Dalson and vanished (I didnt want to bother with the adds).

Went upstairs of the "inn" (building on your right, not the one with the diary)
and turned in the other Locked Away quest.
Happy Hunting.

Did this with no bug...either it's fixed or I was lucky...anyways, a few pointers:

The scarlet crusade patrol can be a jerk if you're lower level (I was 52 ret pally). I delt with it by aggroing them and then running into the barn. The skeles and the crusade killed me, but when I respawned both sides were equally dead, and it was fun watching the two in ghost form slapping each other's faces.

And if anybody makes a reference to xkcd.com from my pointers comment he/she shall be shot on sight with a shotgun. In fact, the shotgun I just got from this questchain.

This begins a short series of quests that include you killing a "wandering skeleton" behind the house to obtain a key. After you obtain the first key and open the outhouse you will need to kill a lvl 56 undead that spawns, giving you a key to a cabinet in the upstairs portion of the house.

Does anyone know how to open the outhouse? I've got 'Dalson's Outhouse Key' and I circled the thing a bunch of times and even clicked on the key to see if it would work, but nothing. Anyone know the 'secret'?

评论来自 Thottbot

Did this recently on my Warlock. I went through the trouble of actually fighting my way through the house with the wardrobe before I realized I needed the key. Then after I killed that stupid wandering skelly multiple times I realized I needed to get to the stupid journal first! >.< After I put my noobness aside I finally managed to finish this miniquest. The rewards were worthless to me but the XP is well worth the blood sweat and tears. And if you went around in circles like me, you'll end up with a good chunk of Argent Dawn rep too. Happy hunting!

评论来自 Thottbot

ok I got the diary killed the wandering skeleton and got the key. But its not letting me open the outhouse! Anyone else have this problem and know what do about it?

评论来自 Thottbot

I was stealthed out back by the outhouse, alt-tabbed to here to read up on the quest. When I popped back into WoW, the bastard was already wailing on me.
Not a long wait.

An Email From Blizzard:

Greetings Raven,

Thank you for contacting the World of Warcraft Game Master Department.

Issue Reported:
"Place: Western Plaguelands (48,50)
Quest: Mrs. Dalson's Diary

Problem: I accessed the book in the barn in Dalson's Tears that started the quest. As instructed, I killed the 'Wandering Skeleton' and obtained the key to the outhouse. However, the outhouse is unclickable and inaccessible. The quest is not in my quest log and no questing option is given when I access the book again. I thought it might be me but several websites have forums on the quest listing the same issue. Please assist."

We are aware of the situation you reported, and we are currently working on a solution. Please check the World of Warcraft website (http://www.worldofwarcraft.com) for
future updates and corrections. We appreciate your patience.

You can also check our forums ("http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/forums/") where you can discuss game issues with other players.

Thank you again for contacting us. We hope you continue to enjoy your experience in World of Warcraft!

There are multiple outhouses, but you are looking for the one BEHIND the farm, not on the side of it.

The Wandering Skeleton that drops the key to this outhouse pats around the two buildings. The best place to wait for him is probably around the backside of the farm, as there are less mobs to aggro.

评论来自 Allakhazam

Well this quest appears bugged... Wandering Skeleton does not spawn, so it's impossible to get the Outhouse Key

评论来自 Allakhazam

Ok.. i read the dairy... yay! It says the dude has the key... I kill the creature... get the key. The outhouse has no entrance and won't let me click it even with the key. So, confused, I fight my way into the house with the cabinet... It's locked... wtf do i do? I hate this quest.

评论来自 Allakhazam

LOL, Harold the Ghoul was a recurring character in the Fallout series. I'm pretty sure he's going to be in the upcoming Fallout 3 as well. :)

评论来自 Allakhazam

This particular strategy would work for rogues only. Outside the barn, get the attention of the Scarlets, run inside the barn to the diary (getting the attention of the ghouls), vanish. The Scarlets and the Ghouls will fight it out and you get a ringside seat. The Scarlets win and leave to patrol outside again. Read the diary at your leisure.

评论来自 Allakhazam

he spawns at the back of the barn and walks clockwise (if viewed from above) around it. The problem is on my server they have 4 scarlet crusaders and they kill the wandering skeleton.

I was doing the cauldron, and came back to find him getting killed by the SC . . .

Next time, I ran off to collect herbs and was fighting my way back, SC got the fool again.

its a lvl 56 guy, straight up melee, no issues. I had to kill the stuff in the back to get him to spawn, I think he's set on the random spawn as the rest of the mobs.

The only way I was able to get the wandering skele was to take out all the scarlet crusaders, then start massacring the mobs around the barn . . . eventually he showed up.

评论来自 cracklingice

The issue people are having with this quest chain and being unable to open the outhouse appears to be related to layering. I ran into the issue and was able to get the chain completed by being invited to group with someone from another layer.

评论来自 Highone

This is how to do it:

1) Click on Mrs. Dalson's Diary in the barn. Will write completed. No exp or next quest.
2) Loot a 达尔松厕所钥匙 from nearby Wandering Skeleton undead mob.
3) Go to Outhouse at the back of the barn & house and open ith with the key. This will spawn 农夫达尔松.
4) Kill Farmer Dalson to loot 达尔松橱柜钥匙.
5) Go to 2nd floor of the house. There will be a locked cabinet. Use the key to open it and complete quest.

Good hunting!

EDIT: Thanks for the hint about Wandering Skeleton :)

Still bugged as of 5th November 2019, unable to interact with the outhouse. At the time of posting, my server is still layered.

评论来自 Eziair

Bugged?
I get no quest from the book.

评论来自 Libraridan

Wandering Skeleton did not drop the key, at least on the first kill...or second. Seems bugged still.

评论来自 Alteritus

Run in the barn and right click the book, you get the option to complete the quest even though you are not doing a quest for it. The pickup is instant.
Go behind the barn and house, kill Wandering Skeleton for it's key
Right click the Outhouse and kill the mob and pickup his key.
Right click the cabinet in the upper floor of the house.
Done.

评论来自 kronck

Honestly, this quest is rough..or at least it was for me as 56 warrior. The zombies/skeletons respawn very quickly and in groups. As I finish 3-4 of them off, then another respawns and/or the wandering skeleton comes my way. Died twice just getting into the dang barn. The outhouse part is easy (farmer is lvl 56 but weakened). But then I died trying to get into the house. Will go back to try again.

评论来自 badfreddyboy

I have had no problem with this quest in the past however it seems bugged now in TBC phase 1 as of 13.09.21.
Completely unable to click the outhouse even though i have the key on me, reload did not work
