Kommentar von Katarinea

A very simple, humorous quest. The prospector walks around the perimeter of the dig site and makes a few funny comments before returning to the camp you started from.

The only mobs that are fought are the murloc lining the wreckage of the dig.

However, I failed this quest once -- when walking around, near the Master's Glaive, he aggroed a "Spawn of Soggoth" and it was not visible to me. I was certain it was a phasing error, and it was -- later on there is a phased quest in the Master's Glaive. If he aggros this, just run forward into the Master's Glaive, and hopefully it will be visible. It didn't happen the second time, so it may or may not be rare.

This quest would not be hard for someone at level.

Kommentar von Diwtay

I had the same error when he suddenly aggroed something I could not see. He stood there swinging away at nothing until he died. >_< Had to drop the quest and pick it up again.

Kommentar von aiky

Same failed first time becouse or "invinsible" mob

It would appear that in order to successfully complete this quest, you not only have to finish the quests in the grove, but also the other quests in his camp. One of the quests in the camp actually sends you back to the grove, and another summons Birdfurion Squakrage to tell you to go save Darkshore while he saves Hyjal. On returning to the Master's Glaive at Birdfurion's bidding, my fiancee and I noticed that the prospector, still raid marked and buffed with his fort and my kings, was now battling a visible enemy, although we'd both abandoned the quest several full minutes earlier.

As of today this quest is still bugged when the guy gets aggroed by an invisble mob you cant hit, i tried doing all the quests from the grove and doing it again but still gets bugged out. so far im now at 87/90 quests so cant get achievement. :(
And according to twilytgardnfaery's post above the said "Birdfurion Squakrage" never appeared for me so i cant get that quest either. :(

I ended up finishing all the quests in Darkshore except one...THIS one....and the Spawns in the Glaive aren't visible so he continues to get attacked and die.

Kommentar von Youtea

In order to complete this quest, you must complete the quest The Offering to Azshara. I just finished this quest a few minutes ago, after 3 tries.

Kommentar von Ruhig

Ran this quest yesterday, and no longer appears bugged. I really enjoyed his dialog too, as he constantly proclaims surprise at "discovering" things that he already found, and finally going around in a big circle to return to his original camp.

Kommentar von Soldier45

This quest is so stupid it made me laugh. However I did get upset when I realized we were just going in a circle.

Kommentar von illtree

Just did this while working on Loremaster. It is still bugged to where he will attack an invisible mob.

Kommentar von sjackson547

Tried it once before taking Soggoth out and had the same issue as everyone else. Got lucky the second time (after Soggoth). I watched someone bring him back into the camp. When I took him on the round, none of the mobs had a chance to respawn, just walked around in the circle...lol

I tried to do this quest earlier today, to no avail. I tried healing him for a bit hoping he could tackle the invisible foe solo, and I just gave up and abandoned the quest. The kicker is, I went afk for some time, and came back probably an hour later.. only to find Remtravel in the spot where I left him, stuck at 172/417hp STILL attacking the mob! I've put in a ticket about it, but who knows how long that will take to get through to someone. Here's hoping it doesn't interfere with the Darkshore Quests cheevo!

Kommentar von 624617

To avoid the confusion of invisible mobs, make sure you are on the quest The Battle for Darkshore (allowing you to see the Spawns of Soggoth) before starting this escort quest.

Kommentar von 616859

so.. this quest failed - i didnt even know what was happening when i got the failed message... i abandoned the quest but now the quest giver is not reappearing. what do i have to do to reset this quest? do i have to wait a certain period of time?

Kommentar von 654285

Does anyone else want to make a horde toon just t go kill this guy?

Kommentar von 817227

I was annoyed about how i had to start the quest over when he attacked invisible monsters and died, and a did a face palm when the quest finished and i saw that we walked in a huge circle, literally!

Kommentar von 251368

Very poor design to have Prospector Remtravel attack mobs that you don't have access to yet.. This quest should not be available until you can see the Spawns of Soggoth, or else have him not attack them.. I was having a blast with the redesigned Darkshore until this quest brought my mood down a few pegs

Kommentar von r00st3r

I would classify this quest as broken since I was unable to do it as I had not done the unknown prerequisite, the battle for darkshore . :(

I abandoned the quest when remtravel aggro'd to an invisible monster. Ran a dungeon, came back to him and he was STILL there attacking. Came here to wowhead, found the answer, went and did the quest chain, killed the monster he was fighting, remtravel despawned and now he has not returned. :(

After about 30 minutes or so, remtravel respawned, I did the quest and it is now complete. I also got the achievement for darkshore quests, as this was my last quest to do as far as i know.

Kommentar von 856039

i can't tell you how many times this quest made me facepalm.
gg Remtravel. gg.

Kommentar von Zephymetheus

"The Absent-Minded Developer" would be a title more fitting for this quest.

Kommentar von 326762

Instead of saving the world from the evil Twilight forces or Wildlife, we now take an alzheimer-patient for a walk.

Nice idea for a quest though :D

Kommentar von Jenelope

The other ruins he makes several comments about over the course of the escort are the same ruins he's now circling, just before the cataclysm caused them to flood. This poor, absent-minded dwarf.

Kommentar von Soeroah

While predictable, there are a few rage-faces that could summarise my feelings toward this quest. Funny though!

Kommentar von Taav

This is clearly not a mission you accept until you are ready to complete it. It has a tendency to frustrate the unwary.

IF YOU ARE IN A PARTY/GROUP MAKE SURE TO ACCEPT AND COMPLETE IN TURN; otherwise a party member or two may need to restart the quest to receive completion credit. (edit: it appears you can now just restart the quest in the event of failure rather than need to abandon the quest first. 16 June 13)

The prospector walks around the perimeter of the dig site and then returns to the camp you started from; he make this trip whether you escort him or not.

It is best done after you complete "Battle of Darkshore" as the prospector's trip still has the tendency to aggro of the invisible Spawn of Soggoth. In fact, you may wish to finish the other zone quests through "The Offering to Azshara" as it seems to be permit an uninterrupted trip around the excavation site (except for a few easily dispatched Murloc) and consistent mission accomplishment. Further, it appears you must TURN-IN the quests in order to have the Spawn of Soggoth threat removed.

This is most likely a reference to the movie, an Absent-Minded Professor, by Disney! :)

Kommentar von moddedmama

Years later, still buggy. Picked up the quest, couldn't do it. (Remtravel wouldn't move.) Tried again while I was on the Battle for Darkshore quest, nothing. Tried after completing it, still nothing. Then I abandoned and reacquired it and it finally let me complete it.

Kommentar von Styder

Tried 3 times doing this quest. Going around the body of water practically glued to him. Get to the point of "Ah, we're almost there, whos-yer-face! The camp where I left my notes is just around the corner!" instantly followed by failed quest.

Kommentar von Akushalah

If you go clear the murlocs ahead of accepting this escort (for the disc and murloc killing quests), the prospector will despawn before completion (but far enough in to be irritating). Apparently he needs to be in occasional combat...

Kommentar von Mackten

Failed on the 1st try, I went to the left of the tree at 38, 85 to stay in the "Remtravel Excavation" sub-area on my second try, Prospector Remtravel disappeared a few meters but reappeared after passing the "The Master's Glaive" sub-area "and I finally could complete this quest.

Kommentar von cgilm2526

As a mage, I gave him an Arcane Intellect buff hoping it would help. No so much. Still walked in a circle. LOL
