The Caverns Of Time is protected by the Bronze Dragonflight which cannot let mortals interrupt the timeline so thats why the doors were closed, but a new race of dragon flight named the Infinite Dragonflight has been interrupting the time flow in the caverns. The Bronze Dragonflight is recruiting adventurers to make sure all past events occur the way they should.

As of what I have heard, the instances will be as followed:

Old Hillsbrad - help Thrall escape from Durnholde keep.
Black Morass - protect Medivh as he opens the Dark Portal.
Old Hyjal - Fight Archimonde atop Mount Hyjal.

I was very lucky and did not get ganked while doing this quest. But I recommend to have a small group when doing it..

Kommentar von 16126

The quest takes about 5-10 minutes.

Kommentar von 41333

I wasent that lucky. started the quest, went for 10min just before i got back and complete the quest. BAAM 2 rogues on my ass :(

Kommentar von segadomcast

Blizz deserves a fat slap in the face with a cold fish for this.. its really lame

Kommentar von 52354

Don't forget the lvl 65 raid if you are friendly or higher with them.... havent run it yet, just went in today to look around, obviously not the instance since im a 41, but to look around. It looks pretty sweet IMO... but m,aybe the instances do suck.. wont know til I get there.....but do the raid ... LOL

Note that this quest requires level 66. Furthermore, you must complete this quest in order to enter the Caverns of Time instances.

I discovered this by accident:

I accepted the quest but didnt know what to do right away so i followed my guildies who were not on that quest. Then a lil later i read the questlog and found out i had to follow the custodian around.
The whole time i was still getting whispers from her telling the whole story. So i abandonned the quest and accepted it again.
While i was doing that i got killed by an alliance and had to walk back to my corpse.
Once i rezzed i saw the custodian close by the questgiver, she was still whispering me the story even though i abandonned and re-accepted.
5 seconds later it said "quest completed".

So i think its possible to accept quest, hang around the questgiver, wait for the custodian to come back and you're done

Confirmed, AFK at the quest-giver for 9min and you'll get credit when your tour guide finishes the circle.

Kommentar von Lucid

Our group had difficulty getting the custodian to spawn for the quest. We made many attempts at abandoning and reaccepting the quest and nothing would happen. While writing the GM petition, we were killed by a group of alliance. After ressurecting, we found the quest worked just fine.

So I'd recommend that should you have difficulty getting the quest to work, get yourself killed somehow and it may make it work again for ya.

Kommentar von 38292

I completed the First part ie blowing up the huts, then almost completed in helping Thrall to escape, but one of the other members of the party had decided to use fear and we got wipe (4 times this happened)

Kommentar von 75972

I too abandoned this and forgot about it.
It is important to know though that if you do this you need to get back up and talk to the dragon again and let him fly you down. Just retakeing it will give you the quest but no custodian will be summoned so there´s nothing to follow around-
Almost had a nervous brakedown before I figured it out.

Here's a transcript of what the Custodian of Time whispers to you as you take your tour:

Greetings, <name>. I will guide you through the cavern. Please try and keep up.

We do not know if the Caverns of Time have always been accessible to mortals. Truly, it is impossible to tell as the Timeless One is in perpetual motion, changing our timeways as he sees fit. What you see now may very well not exist tomorrow. You may wake up and have no memory of this place.

It is strange, I know... Most mortals cannot actually comprehend what they see here, as often, what they see is not anchored within their own perception of reality.

Follow me, please. <The Custodian leads you to the entrance of the Old Hillsbrad timeway.>

There are only two truths to be found here: First, that time is chaotic, always in flux, and completely malleable and second, perception does not dictate reality.

As custodians of time, we watch over and care for Nozdormu's realm. The master is away at the moment, which means that attempts are being made to dramatically alter time. The master never meddles in the affairs of mortals but instead corrects the alterations made to time by others. He is reactionary in this regard.

For normal maintenance of time, the Keepers of Time are sufficient caretakers. We are able to deal with most ordinary disturbances. I speak of little things, such as rogue mages changing something in the past to elevate their status or wealth in the present.

These tunnels that you see are called timeways. They are infinite in number. The ones that currently exist in your reality are what the master has deemed as 'trouble spots.' These trouble spots may differ completely in theme but they always share a cause. That is, their existence is a result of the same temporal disturbance. Remember that should you venture inside one...

This timeway is in great disarray! We have agents inside right now attempting to restore order. What information I have indicates that Thrall's freedom is in jeopardy. A malevolent organization known as the Infinite Dragonflight is trying to prevent his escape. I fear without outside assistance, all will be lost.

Follow me, please. <The Custodian leads you to the entrance of the Black Morass timeway.>

We have very little information on this timeway. Sa'at has been dispatched and is currently inside. The data we have gathered from his correspondence is that the Infinite Dragonflight are once again attempting to alter time. Could it be that the opening of the Dark Portal is being targeted for sabotage? Let us hope not...

Follow me, please. <The Custodian leads you to the closed timeway with the wrecked ships in front of it.>

This timeway is currently collapsing. What that may hold for the past, present and future is currently unknown...

The timeways are currently ranked in order from least catastrophic to most catastrophic. Note that they are all classified as catastrophic, meaning that any single one of these timeways collapsing would mean that your world would end. We only classify them in such a way so that the heroes and adventurers that are sent here know which timeway best suits their abilities.

Follow me, please. <The Custodian leads you to the entrance of the Mount Hyjal timeway.>

All we know of this timeway is that it leads to Mount Hyjal. The Infinite Dragonflight have gone to great lengths to prevent our involvement. We know next to nothing, mortal. Soridormi is currently attempting to break through the timeway's defenses but has thus far been unsuccessful. You might be our only hope of breaking through and resolving the conflict.

Follow me, please. <The Custodian leads you back to Andormu.>

Our time is at an end <name>. I would wish you luck, if such a thing existed.

Kommentar von 47139

It might not be a bad idea to do this as soon as you hit 66, so you don't tie up a group when you actually go to do Old Hillsbrad.

Kommentar von TheMuffinMan

"Don't do anything that affects anything. Unless it turns out you were supposed to do it, in which case for the love of God. Don't not do it!"
-Professor Hubert Farnsworth, regarding Time Travel

Kommentar von Zeast

confirmed that you dont have to follow the quest giver around but you must be at the custodian when he says.

Our time is at an end, <players name>. I would wish you luck, if such a thing existed.

or you will not get credit for completing the quest.

also theirs a debuff for 15 minutes that makes you unable to redo the quest by preventing you from summoning the custodian of time

meaning if you get d/c you log out or for any reason dont complete the quest you cant redo the quest untill your online for 15 minutes for the debuff to go away

but if theirs a player of the opposing faction you can try to get them to kill you which will take away the debuff since its in your buff bar instead of your debuff bar(you can also get killed by an npc but that will make ur armor suffer from durability loss)

Kommentar von danroe

Don't forget the best bar in the game, right in the entrance

The Taverns of Time

Kommentar von 277735

Does NOT count toward Loremaster of Kalimdor Achievement.

Kommentar von 337332

Once you get inside Old Hillsbrad there are some whacked out @#$%.
Something about the lodges already being on fire doesnt allow you to do the second part of the quest.
I think its really dumb how they dont have maps of the instances. it would make it so much easier.
this one needs to be worked on by blizzard

Kommentar von Heliotrope

There should be a meta-achievement for finishing all of the instances here that rewards a DeLorean mount.

Kommentar von darthveda

I vote to rename the Custodian of Time to have the title "The Lorebomber"

Kommentar von 363550

$%$% now I took this quest, then I say to myself "wtf am i doing 1000 xp for 15 min" and abandoned it. Now I find out this is prerequisite, damn. That's what I hate about wow. Stupid quests like this one. Seems like some wow designers should be fired.
WHY THE $#%$@# DEBUFF? DO THEY LIKE US TO WAIT/GO AFK OR WHATEVER? I just can't understand their logic in this one..

edit: finally the crappy quest again. In the meantime, I'm massing glyphs for AH.

Kommentar von Chronalis

It's rather ironic they speak of "Saving Time", yet they spend several minutes "Wasting" my time. Should have the option to skip it to be honest.

Kommentar von 504194

somehow as a lvl 58 i got killed by a 61 elite in tanaris and the spirit healer was in the caverns of time. i couldnt find my coprse so i rezed with her. HOW DO I GET OUT

Kommentar von Flenop

Unknown if/when it will be changed, but this quest remains a prerequisite for Durnholde, yet it will appear on a character's dungeon options at level 64.

Hopefully it doesn't confuse too many people who level new alts.

Editing: This was changed quite some time back. Obviously people can get in just fine now via LFD, and you can even just run in.

Kommentar von futbolaholic

Now takes about 7 minutes, 50 seconds, +/- 2 seconds.

Kommentar von 312803

If you do this quest after The Culling of Stratholme was implemented in WoTLK (at launch), the Custodian of Time will briefly pause in front of the instance and comment:

This timeway collapsed and reformed. The result was Stratholme of yore. What could possibly be happening inside?

Kommentar von 660890

So... I'm Alliance and got this quest and I followed the custodian around and she yelled things that made no sense what so ever. This like:
Do not proceed. You will be eliminated.
Tectonic disruption commencing.
Magnitude set. Release.
Trajectory locked.

Each was followed by: Contemptible wretch!

It was like being Aragorn in a Peter Jackson movie and wondering where the plot went.

Kommentar von 709139

as for patch 4.0.3, just waiting at the questgiver while she is "guiding" you still works.

Kommentar von dallium

As of 4.0.3, you can enter Escape from Durnholde without completing a single quest, by walking in the instance portal. I'm 85, so I have no clue if you can que for it without the quest. Additionally, and more to the point, when I first did the quest, I lagged out and the "No summoning for you" buff vanished from my bar, but was apparently still in effect, so if something similar happend to you, don't bother the nice GMs.

Kommentar von kurasii

Well I'm rather confused. I just did this quest and followed the custodian around, HOWEVER she didn't say a single thing during the tour. Just motioned with her hands, and I figured she was SUPPOSED to be saying something, lol. I didn't do anything to trigger a glitch, just talked to the questgiver, but I think I've found the only way to make this quest MORE boring.

Kommentar von pherkier

4.3 Still working, just be afk like 7 mins

Kommentar von Takata

Just did this quest, it did not count towards the Tanaris Quest achievement...I don't know if you have to actually follow her around.

Kommentar von 984506

As of 4.3.4 still works staying AFK at questgiver.

Kommentar von MoarHeroisms

The custodian's dialogue has not been updated with the introduction of Dragon Soul and the adjacent 5-man heroics.

Kommentar von 940869

The caverns of time will not be used in any xpacs from 4.3.4 and beyond, due to the dragon aspects losing their power.

Kommentar von Makasgar

Follow me, please.

Kommentar von magpulsexp2

As of today 5:40 seconds (approx) from start of the quest to the full tour around the caverns.
Did not AFK , followed mounted, and I read every single word she posted, (NOT)
15 x 120 toons later and you would be annoyed there is no skip here...

But, if you do not complete the quest, when you zone back in you wont be able to ride the trip into the caverns, you will have to fly manually, so dont skip it.. its not a wise move..... Call it the caverns of time flight Atunement Event if you will.....

Kommentar von Kryptaria

The first time I tried this, the Custodian of Time didn't materialize. Dropping the quest and picking it back up didn't work.

I dropped the quest, hearthed out, took the portal back, took the dragon down, and picked up the quest. The Custodian of Time materialized.

I stayed in the circle next to Andormu. Eventually, I got credit for the quest, turned it in, and picked up the next in the chain. No need to follow the Custodian.

Kommentar von CrunchBoat

Twice I followed, twice they disappeared into old hillsbrad and never to return. Tried afk. Don't know how long I was away, 5ish minutes but it worked fine. Recommend afk. Also, **** escort quests. Pretty sure I'm not alone on that one.
