'''Malagav the Tactician''' was the leader of the tauren of the [[Might of Kalimdor]] - the army raised by both the Horde and the Alliance in opposition to the growing threat from [[Ahn'Qiraj]]. He was present in World of Warcraft until the ringing of the Scarab Gong by the holder of the [[Scepter of the Shifting Sands]] (which, as of September 2007, the majority of servers have done). His absence from the game since suggests that he fell during the final battle outside the Scarab Wall.

The mast you must search, an [[Inconspicuous Landmark]], is located in [[Land's End Beach]] {{co|54|95.0|Tanaris}}, the southermost tip of Tanaris. When you search the mast five level 45 Treasure Hunting Pirates appear. If you flee, they will guard the mast for a short period of time. You should, in fact, do this the moment you finish inspecting the mast, as they will spread out, making it possible to take them on one by one. The key to the chest drops from one of them.

Second Opinion and other notes (perspective L46 Mage): Potion of water-walking or similar will make getting there much quicker. The surrounding mobs are L48-L50, and quite dense but can be cleared long enough if this is done economically. The mix of pirates may be variable, two L45 and three L44 seemed most common. If you start running the second you trigger the spawn you will avoid any initial aggro/not be in combat, however, contrary to the above experience they remain quite tightly clustered and all aggro as a group. They revert to this behaviour after being kited also. The 'nearest' graveyard is Southmoon Ruins and thanks to the intervening mountain chain a run back will take 8-10 mins. This seems to be longer than the reset/despawn timer, so a kamikaze reduction of their numbers is unlikely to be fruitful. At L45/6 (when you might typically get this quest) classes that aren't strong against groups will find this a tall order to solo. You might also consider that the rewards may be quite nugatory.

Having [[Cuergo's Key]] on your keyring will prevent you from searching any [[Inconspicuous Landmark]], so if you manage to loot the key from one of the pirates but fail to open the chest before it despawns you will have to open your keyring, throw away the key and start over.

Notes

The mast you must search, an Inconspicuous Landmark, is located in Land's End Beach [54, 95.0]VZ-TanarisBlip, the southermost tip of Tanaris. When you search the mast five level 45 Treasure Hunting Pirates appear. If you flee, they will guard the mast for a short period of time. You should, in fact, do this the moment you finish inspecting the mast, as they will spread out, making it possible to take them on one by one. The key to the chest drops from one of them.

Second Opinion and other notes (perspective L46 Mage): Potion of water-walking or similar will make getting there much quicker. The surrounding mobs are L48-L50, and quite dense but can be cleared long enough if this is done economically. The mix of pirates may be variable, two L45 and three L44 seemed most common. If you start running the second you trigger the spawn you will avoid any initial aggro/not be in combat, however, contrary to the above experience they remain quite tightly clustered and all aggro as a group. They revert to this behaviour after being kited also. The 'nearest' graveyard is Southmoon Ruins and thanks to the intervening mountain chain a run back will take 8-10 mins.

At L45/6 (when you might typically get this quest) classes that aren't strong against groups will find this a tall order to solo. You might also consider that the rewards may be quite nugatory.

Having Inv misc key 01 [Cuergo's Key] on your keyring will prevent you from searching any Inconspicuous Landmark, so if you manage to loot the key from one of the pirates but fail to open the chest before it despawns you will have to open your keyring, throw away the key and start over.
