Revision as of 04:01, 8 January 2011

This quest is a part of The Third Fleet questline. It starts with [27] The Third Fleet

Objectives

Kill 13 Cursed Sailors, 5 Cursed Marines and First Mate Snellig. Bring Snellig's Snuffbox to First Mate Fitzsimmons in Menethil Harbor.

Description

<Bolstered, Fitzsimmons continues his tale...>

I am the sole survivor of the ill-fated Third Fleet of Kul Tiras, wrecked off the coast to the north. But although I'm the only member of the fleet still breathing, I'm not the only one still walking about! For on one of our ships was hidden a great, and terrible treasure, and the eerie power of it keeps the souls of my brothers trapped within the ships' rotting hulls.

But if you can free some of my brothers, then perhaps you can break their curse.

Rewards

You will receive: 19

Progress

In my dreams, I can sometimes hear the doomed moans of my brethren! Please, good madam, free them from the bonds and quiet their cries.

Completion

My thanks to you, <name>. And the gratitude of my cursed brethren goes to you as well.

Notes

This quest takes place in the two boats off the north-east coast of the Wetlands. Killing the Marines and Sailors should be easy enough, since they populate both boats. First Mate Snellig can be found in the hold of the more southern of the two boats. He should be just inside the large hole in the hull.

-Black Lotus can be found in [[Winterspring]], [[Eastern Plaguelands]], [[Burning Steppes]], [[Silithus]], and outside the instance portals in [[Dire Maul]]. It is rare in all of these places and never appears anywhere else. Requires 300 Herbalism to gather.

+==Description==
-It can also very rarely be obtained from harvesting the corpses of plant mobs like [[Bog Lord]]s in Outland. The chance to get a black lotus appears to increase with the monster's level, so chances are higher in places like [[Skettis]], [[Steamvaults]], [[Serpentshrine Cavern]] and heroic Coilfang Reservoir instances.

-Each of the spawn zones has a small set of spawn points for Black Lotus. Only one Black Lotus will spawn at a time in the zone. Check sites which focus on gathering WoW data to see maps of the spawn locations. It's estimated that the respawn rate is 1 hour.

-==Reference/inspiration==
+My thanks to you, <name>. And the gratitude of my cursed brethren goes to you as well.
-The Black Lotus is probably either a reference to or inspired by Conan the Barbarian stories in which a highly venomous plant known as the Black Lotus first appeared. It could also be a reference to the card Black Lotus, from the Magic: the Gathering card game, in which the Black Lotus card is among the most useful and expensive cards in the game.
