The Watcher quest, wasn't it just a breadcrumb? Usually quests you got upon entering a new area led to a handful more quests, but occasionally they were just to move you in a direction so you could discover things/NPCs or just open up the map. I also remember quests where you found an object out in the middle of nowhere and had to take it back to an NPC somewhere you'd already been. You never knew if it was going to be important, or give you a random item. It was an adventure. Now the campaign literally leads you around a set path for your first character.
I think you're correct on that one
If I’m remembering things right and I’m probably not. Wasn’t it picked up by alliance players to guide them towards Duskwood and onto Stranglethorn after they had completed redridge mountains?
2:15 I remember soloing that guy as an Enhancement Shaman at lvl 41. That was a tough fight for an undergeared character.
I do recall doing the watcher dodd quest really early on. Played in the Open Beta Oct 2004.
it's stuff like this I wish I knew back then... imagine holding onto those rare items.
These quests bring back memories. I personally only have completed the first and third quest mentioned while hearing about the second one. Back then it was all about the exp and I should have probably paid more attention.
Hah! I knew I wasn't crazy. I remember doing Dodd's quest line a long time ago but ever since I always wondered why I couldn't find it to do again. Always felt like something was "missing" from Duskwood. I would point out and say. I remember doing a quest for this guy, no one else seemed to recall it at all.
That Duskwood one brings back memories. I remember going to that guy every couple of levels (mostly for the Goblin vendor nearby) looking for a quest icon and nothing ever popped up.
Dude..
The original Dartol's Rod from the Astrana line.
The early Vanila version would transform you into a Furbolg anywhere in world.
It was changed to the one now in Burning Crusade (from memory) which only works in Astrana.
I proudly have the original (which still works anywhere).
Not many do.
I remember using the old one in TBC raids now and then, so it worked for at least some of TBC, for sure 2.3, so maybe 2.4 changed it, or it was Wrath.
@@DrewPicklesTheDark Yeah, maybe. It was a long time ago. Lol. Cheers.
For some reason i have a working slowfall brew from new years 2010. Free slow fall spell on my warrior is awesome, especially in Arathi Basin
Haha but now its o rare you can't or won't want to use it.
I had Ruby shades on my bank alt and eventually after years I thought fuck it and equipped them Lol@@korpen2858
I still kept mine too and it was still working back in Legion and I think BFA when I stopped playing. If I remember correctly you had to hand in the Rod at the end of the questline but it was a way better reward than the actual quest rewards which is why I kept mine.
When the achievement system kicked in, i got awarded Loremaster right away, having done pretty much every single quest in both Kalimdo and EK.
But that aside, i have another forgotten quest for you, one that noone has completed in 17 or 18 years. A quest, which is still in my quest log, but i can't turn it in even tho is complete, due to the fact they removed the npc that both gives, and turns in the quest a few months after have been introduced.
The quest in question is Zinfizzlex's Portable Shredder Unit. Zinfizzlex is an NPC that existed in AV at launch in patch 1.5, but was removed in patch 1.10, before vanilla even ended. And i've had this quest in my log ever since.
Now, i think he got re-added in Classic even tho Classic is suppoused to be based of patch 1.12, but i'm not sure because i don't play Classic. Nevertheless, in retail, i doubt many people still have this quest in their log, in fact, not many even attempted to complete it because it was sorta expensive back then, since it asks for a lots of materials.
From what I’ve seen, the quests weren’t readded to AV in classic - the npc quest was added again later in retail as kind of a throwback event, with a new version of the quest for the shredder.
I wonder if the quest npc would still turn in the old quest to those who still had it
Didn't they reset all quest logs a few years ago? I remember losing my original Hand of A'dal quest due to that.
@@rowanrobinson I thought so too, some alts lost some old quests, but this one did not disappear from my quest log. I wonder if the reazon is that is marked as complete, since i looted the sawblade and i got the other matz. Or maybe is because is so old that they did not think anyone would still have it.
ouch why would u hold onto that and not just finish it! awesome title. i got mine years later by getting help with it and having someone just solo the raid@@rowanrobinson
Sad the live action Warcraft movie bombed but I'm sure the stories that they can tell in animation would be numerous.
I remember doing the quest line to get the boomerang. Link from Zelda was in UnGoro Crater. I wonder if that quest is still there?
Really enjoyed this video. Keep up the great content 😊 That Duskwood quest might have been connected to Blizzards plans on players needing torches while venturing through Duskwood, too bad it got cut out early on. I personally still keep a lot of unusable quest items in my bank back from MoP.. I don't have the heart to delete them!
i remember doing the old quest awaiting word on vanilla years ago i still remember it was sad it got removed
Never knew any of this, awesome haha
Random Thing... Maybe someone with your knowledge would have better research... I am 1000% sure that I was once attacked by a Rarespawn Stealthed Turtle Mob in the Hinterlands... I've told people about it for years and joked about a Stealthed Ninja Turtle in the Hinterlands... I've never been able to find it since and can't even find any record of it ever existing... But I know for sure I'm not crazy... There was once a Stealthed Turtle Rarespawn in the Hinterlands... When Classic released in 2019 I went back and searched for hours... It's been like my WoW Mobey Dick... I swear it was real, but I've never been able to prove it
Edit: It was on the coast north of Revantusk Village with the rest of the Turtles. I believe it could have been Ironback... But I've found no record of Ironback having Stealth.
Edit: I'm confident that it didn't just spawn on me because it was an elite and killed me and I came back with another player and found it again patting down the shore 100% in Stealth
Sounds interesting, ill take a look!
The hinterlands does have a rare turtle mob right exactly where you mentioned.
I started to play Wow about 6 months after it started and I found a quest giver after I bugged and fell to my death while flying from Ironforge to the wetlands. I landed in the village on the side of the mountain above the wetlands "on the very edge". I could see a quest-giver standing inside of a building. But I couldn't find a way to get to him alive or dead lol but I heard a lot of rumors about that village. Like there was a road that was to start outside the gate of Ironforge that led to a closed-off gate and it was to lead there. No clue if it was true
That’s not true
The quest with Zaricotl was one that I tried to complete for a while. I actually tamed that mob and still use him today, though after cataclysm the removed Zaricotl completely and made his model white... kinda sad because i loved the red buzzard but it's pretty cool in a "this bird is dead" kind of way.
I also had the demon skin but ended up multiple times on several toons back in the day. Good times.
I remmber having a quest to kill killer squirrels on gm island
Think you should add some soundproof foam in your recording room. There's echo in your recordings.
Cool video :)
Remember the first one, and the last one.
Shit I've been playing WoW for so long that I remember an NPC in Silithus that could not be killed. His health wouldn't drop below 1. I remember battling him on my druid and after 30 minutes I gave up and ran off cuz his health just wouldn't drop to 0 no matter what I did.
Damn I got the enforces pauldrons from that quest. Had to have a level 47 come help me with it tho.
Lmao I recollect the watcher Callahan quest was peeved that I didn't get some blue gear after doing it lol.
Those were the days took me just on 2 years to get my first purple epic and it dropped on my Hunter it was a mace if I recall correctly in the burning steppes lmao useless to me and soul bound blizzard was so cruel lol
Holy CRAP Allakhazam. There's a name I haven't heard in like 103 years.
Yep it’s been a while, never quite used it myself, but Thottbot was the go-to for me back when I started
@@TurbotarzanWoW It was very popular among Everquest players, so Allakhazam was my go-to when WoW first launched. Like first few weeks or so.
👍👍
sorry, quests not included in leveling guides :)
But , there are players using All the things addon, those might have completed those quests if available.
omg instant quest text please???
its difficult to understand what you are saying. can you pls speak louder and more clearly i rly likeyour videos :)
Learn what Universe means.
You seem to be extremly bored. If you dont want to make videos, then dont do It😅 ive watched 30 seconds and i am already bored tbh.
As I got older I gained the ability to focus on something that interests me without needing constant stimuli to keep me awake. Also how to give feedback that somebody can use. Give concrete examples of what could be improved is my recommendation. Something like: narration is an opportunity to make the video more engaging and a focus on improving your speech cadence could make the content easier to follow in sort of a conversational way. Have a great day 😊
Completed this quest back in vanilla.
