Kommentar von FireEmerald

Der NPC spant sobald man sich in die Nähe von einem Kleinen Baum bewegt und diesen Abbauen möchte.

Es ist dabei egal in welchem Gebiet man sich in Dreanor befindet.

Kommentar von MVTranslation

Wenn ihr in der Garnison ankommt und das Fragezeichen zeigt auf den See, schaut wo Weldon Barov ist.
Meist ist er entweder auf Mission oder deaktiviert.

Kommentar von Elyseon

Oh look, those two are at it again.

Kommentar von Tritox

This quest seems to be possible to complete in most of the Draenor zones and not just SMV. In world map there are highlighted several different areas per zone for this quest - presumably areas with timber as the quest text hints. This is just a guess, but I think he will probably spawn randomly to one of these areas when you approach them.

When you find him, he and his posse are going for some lumber and you can't attack them. They will attack you however after few lines to dialog when you are spotted.

I started looking for him from Pinchwhistle Gearworks and I found him from the second area to west.

Kommentar von Throh88

Found this guy in Gorgrond but he can be anywhere in Draenor. If your looking for him, best thing to do is keep an eye on your map. He is marked on the map with a skull like all the rares.

Kommentar von Clickey

All you have to do is get near a Small Timber and he will spawn.

Kommentar von mihalidis

Okay so he can spawn anywhere on small timber, in all areas not only Shadowmoon.

This means that you don't have to waste your time scouring for him in Shadowmoon, but just continue on with whatever it was you was doing, and you will run into him eventually.

You can tell it's him when the dot on your minimap turns into a skull as you approach it.
He has a few mobs with him.

He has no special abilities, and can only be attacked once he has completed a few lines of text.

Kommentar von 500413

Spawned next to Wor'var for me. As soon as I got close to a small timber, he popped up as a hostile, and NPC scan went off. Easy kill, has 3 adds that are easily cleaved down.

Kommentar von darthmullet

I was unable to find him near any 'ol Small Timber. He was actually in the same spot for two of my toons which leads me to believe it may not be random -- at least his position within any given zone might be the same.

I found him under his log, "Fallen Tree" yellow dot on my mini map, in Talador at 73.89, 28.18

*edit* this is concerning the position of the quest giver not the objective

Kommentar von Konuvis

Ok so I killed Alexi but the '?' turn-in marker was showing in the fishing pond and there is no one there.

I believe it's because I'm currently upgrading the Lumber Mill to lvl 2 and that's where the character is supposed to be.

Kommentar von 1350350

Ran around about 10 trees and something seemed odd. Appears I forgot to ask the questgiver to patrol with me. The next tree I ran next to spawned Alexi.

Kommentar von Loryen

Just find small timbers where the mission is marked, if it does not appear to continue trading places and he will find you. You don't need the Alexi Barov with you.

Kommentar von Clarkis2001

So I don't know why but it took me about 14 trees before he showed up. I tried to get the quest giver to accompany me, but he kept despawning when I'd leave the garrison. So, stick with it, I believe the NPC will show up...in time.

Kommentar von Annaillesa

Confirmed, it's not a 100% guaranteed chance on the first small timber you encounter. I found him in Shadowmoon Valley on the sixth small timber I encountered. Don't chop it down, though. Just kind of stand next to it. There has to be a small timber there to chop down in order for him to come. He spawned pretty quickly, though (within 10 seconds). He's very easy to kill. Regular level 100 with a few troll cronies who have very little HP.

**Edit**
I also did not have the quest giver with me when Alexi spawned, so it doesn't appear that that is a requirement.

Kommentar von Constrictors

Another player was headed to the same tree as I was, about 30 yards ahead of me, gathered it and rode off before I could arrive. Alexi and his crew spawned anyway while I was still about five yards out, so it appears the trigger radius is pretty liberal.

Kommentar von Valora

How do I even get this quest? Bit confused, ive been farming small tree's for hours now and ive got a level 2 lumbermill.

Kommentar von Gimmicka

Deactivating Weldon Barov as a follower will not make this quest unavailable.

You can also still take him out for patrols.

Kommentar von Cetane50

After receiving the quest he spawned on the first small timber i approached.

Kommentar von Cyntaria

It seems as though this quest will not complete with Weldon Barov (follower) deactivated.

I had just put the level 1 Lumber Yard into my Garrison. I head out to do the first initial quest to mark 10 small lumber. While out I ran across Fallen Lumber that allowed me to get Weldon Barov as a follower. Finished the initial quest and head back to my Garrison.

At the Garrison I turn in the initial quest and this guest became available. Before heading back out I went in to check my completed missions. I had to deactivate a follower because I had too many. Turns out Weldon didn't have such great traits so I chose him to deactivate for now.

While out questing the Alex Barov was at the first Small Timber I came across. Killed him and he didn't have the quest item (his head) and the quest didn't complete. After reading the comments here, I headed back to the Garrison, paid 250g to reactivate Weldon, abandoned the quest and picked it up again. Alex Barav spawned at the forth Small Timber. I killed him and this time he dropped the quest item.

Kommentar von Malharhak

This quest is part of the Das Sägewerk aufwerten achievement that unlocks the level 3 tumbermill.

In order to start this quest you need to have unlocked Weldon Barov / Alexi Barov as a follower, which is done by completing Der Aufstieg und Fall des Barovkonzerns: Weldon Barov

Der Aufstieg und Fall des Barovkonzerns: Weldon Barov can spawn randomly at any little tree spot. You will see a Fallen tree that will make the quest start and unlock the follower.

Then this follower will be able to give you the Personalabbau later, which is this quest.

Kommentar von druunah

"Peasant friend?"

Sigh...

Kommentar von 783867

I found him in Nagrand.(##RESPBREAK##)524##DELIM##MasterOfDisguise##DELIM##

Kommentar von Tielyn

Nagrand, 60,60, just outside of Telaari Station. You do not need to have less than 250 Lumber to spawn him; it was the 5th small timber I found -- outside of the blue 'help' zones, so you can ignore them fairly safely if you see Small Timber. He seemed to spawn only when I got near the timber, so you shouldn't skip it just because you don't see a skull.

Kommentar von Ivvy

Barov and his minions spawn on timber marked on your map by a yellow circle anywhere... get close to the tree and they will appear ! Don't pay attention to the quest marker number on your map, (like i did for an hour)

Kommentar von DareyFenris

So evidently I rescued him from a fallen tree before I knew what I needed to do with him but luckily was able to find him again just outside of outpost in Nagrand. I had already completed the 75 work orders and just finished reduction in force but was still unable to upgrade my lumber mill. What I didn't know, and has only been posted in slight detail, is that you have to complete the Legacy of the Ancients quest as well. First three I found right off the bat but the fourth (in Gorgrond) took me a couple of hours before he finally showed up. One thing for certain, he can spawn when you are capped on your lumber, and you can't take 5 steps without getting attacked from multiple enemies here!
I hearthed back out as soon as I had killed him and went to the architects table. Talked to the NPC that sales the blueprints, and there it was. Purchased and upgraded. Finally. Hope this helps the rest of you that are in the predicament that I was.

Kommentar von SolitaireLB

To start this quest you need to find Weldon Barov and free him from under a fallen log. I found this in Shadowmoon Valley at 46.2, 31.5.

Once your lumberjack has freed him, he will be at your barracks.

Kommentar von 1411869

You can simply turn it in at your lumbermill regardless of upgrade level

Kommentar von Gwydolyn

This has been an aggravating chain of quests from the beginning. I don't know why Blizzard felt the need to make this so blasted annoying.

Anyway, after running around Talador for about 45 minutes to every Small Timber that popped up on my map I decided to hop over to Nagrand and give that a shot. After going through about 10 or so Small Timbers there I finally found him at one right outside the gate of Telaari Station (coords showed 61.45, 63.18). It was literally right outside the eastern gate of the station. As I ran up to it a yellow circle flashed on the mini map and bam...there they were. Don't worry much about where the ? is marked on your map as it will show up in each zone but the areas that are marked in blue on the map as quest areas can be helpful; I usually found some small timber in those areas.

So just be patient. It seems this line of quests is extremely random in its spawning points. Good luck!

Kommentar von wutru

It's pretty disappointing that he dies this way. He's been part of WoW lore for ages now, and he dies so easily and fast. It should've required a group. I hate when Blizzard kills off lore characters so cheaply.

Kommentar von Califree

I just now found Alexei (playing my rogue) immediately west of the flight master at Path of Light in Shadowmoon Valley. He was not inside a blue map area. His name, and the names of the three mobs with him, were in red.

Kommentar von Arnastrasz

I found him at the first small timber I came across in Shadowmoon Valley.

Kommentar von 1440142

Found Barov under fallen tree for Alliance at (53.6,74.9) in Gorgrond as of 2/5/15 at 7:20am.

Kommentar von Species3259

For those of you who wonder what would happen when you have this quest, but not completed, and decide to replace your Lumber Mill.

In short, the quest disappears from your quest log upon completion.

Yes, you read that right, you can complete the quest even if you do not have a Lumber Mill. Unfortunately it will do you no good. As soon as you loot the head the quest will be removed from your quest log.

So what happens after you construct a new Lumber Mill?
Well, you can find Barov in your mill offering the quest again.

And although you already completed the quest you have to do it again.
Apparently the head is removed along with the quest :-)

Kommentar von Milagros

Check the Kleiner Baums that are inside of the blue circled areas on your minimap in Schattenmondtal. When you approach him and his group, they won't be engageable for a while, and you'll notice that you won't be able to acquire the Holz he's closeby. He doesn't hit much, wouldn't really recommend using your cooldowns.

Kommentar von Sapphyrist

Hey guys,

Found mine at 46.5, 49.2 Nagrand. Seems it's true that it spawns at multiple/random trees.

GL on your hunt! Looking forward to the Lv3 Mill now :)

Cheers!

Kommentar von Grizela

Having a quest turn-in issue? Weldon Barov is MIA and the turn-in quest arrow is in the middle of the fishing pond, but no-one is there (except the fish) and you are left with two heads in your hands (Alex's and yours)?

Exit the game completely. Log back in.

That worked for me.

Kommentar von Noraelone

You can't hand in if your dude is on a mission. Took me a while to figure out why I had a turn in marker on my minimap but no guy :)

Kommentar von Shille

Had no problem finding Alexi and getting the head. Couldnt turn in though. Had the same issue mentioned. Quest turn in was in the pond. Though i've tried all the slotions that have been posted and nothing. Has anyone else encountered this and could you fix it with out gm. Have a ticket in, but says over a day for help

Kommentar von 1453186

The turn in point did not appear in the lumber mill for me. The question mark appeared in the water by my fisherman tent and there is no person there to turn the mission into. :(

Kommentar von 1463770

Got the quest today - same problem: the turn-in marker was showing in the fishing pond. Barov was not inactive or on a mission. Quitting the game, relogging... nothing worked.
So, this is how it worked for me:

I've sent him on a mission, then waited for him (near the gate) to leave the garrison. He really showed up and I was able to stop him to turn in my quest.

Kommentar von Paladisos

If you can't find quest giver at your Garrison it can be cause of two reasons following:

1st - Weldon Barov is on mission
2nd - Weldon Barov is not active in your list of followers

Check your Garrison report to find why you can't see him.

Update:

If you tried my tips and still don't see him, try to send him on mission and catch him on way out from your garrison, this worked for me.
His way out from garrison start at Lumber Mill.

Kommentar von swim54low

You turn in to Weldon Barov, a follower. If he's on a garrison mission the ? for turn in will appear in the fishing pond. When you complete Weldon's mission he will appear in your garrison for turn-in.

Kommentar von lemanakmelo

So how does this work lore-wise, since we kill an alliance follower. And on alliance side, they kill our follower?

Kommentar von 1474065

Having trouble turning in this quest? Have you already made sure Weldon isn't on any missions and that he is, indeed, active? Don't fret if restarting the game didn't work. Just send Weldon on a quick mission, and when he returns he will be there for you to continue on your way to a level three lumber mill.

GM suggested, player approved.

Kommentar von Rezzelyn

Objective: "Collect the o. 0/1 Head of Alexi Barov"

Huh?

I found it odd that they have it all written out here, but when I look on WoW, it says just "collect the o." I suppose their head is circular shaped like an O.... lol Small overlooked detail by Blizz, but I found it kinda funny.

Kommentar von 1494675

Ok. So, there's a lot of bits and pieces of information on this Quest, about the potential bug in the turn in attempt. I will make it simple for everyone.

1. You pick up the quest (at least, I did) by logging the 'fallen log' on the island in Talador with the Terrokkar Refuge. As a matter of fact, it's just a few steps away from the refuge. (there is a possibility that it can happen in other places, but this is where I got it from)

2. You uncover the guy, he pops an exclamation mark for a quest, and then he becomes your follower. Actually, this may also be where you pick up the quest to kill his brother, but I think that comes in step 3.

3. When you get back to your Garrison, he gives you the quest to kill his brother, and bring his head.

4. You go to any small timber anywhere where the map indicates that he might spawn (the blue areas indicated on your map, in case you don't know what those are).

5. He will not necessarily spawn on the first one. It took me three or four trees to get him to spawn.

6. Return to your Garrison. If it shows a Quest turn in Question mark in the fishing pond, and he's not there, something is wrong. It can be several things.
a) You do not have a level 2 lumber mill. (this was my problem)
b) You have to ensure that you haven't sent Weldon on a Mission.
c) You need to ensure that he has been activated.

Once you've done all of these things, you will be able to turn the quest in to him.

Happy Lumberjacking!

Kommentar von kaintk

if you bug like me to make him spawn in your garisson, i've discover the real solution to this

-take the fly to ashran
-once there, take the fly to your garisson
-bam ! he's there near the fly

its worked 100% with me to make him spawn each time

Kommentar von Caellyn

I found Weldon under the log and completed the first quest to make him my follower. I then went back to the garrison, and he was nowhere to be found with the quest Reduction in Force. I tried everything mentioned here and none of it worked. I flew to Stormshield and back. I deleted cache. I exited game and came back in. I sent him on a mission. I searched everywhere. Nothing.

Finally, I noticed engineering was one of his traits, but I don't have an engineering hut. Soooo, I rerolled his traits, and lo and behold without the engineering trait, he showed up at my level 2 lumber mill and I picked up the quest Reduction in Force.

I found and killed Alexi (in Shadowmoon valley) and the quest showed completed. I went back to the garrison, and the question mark was in the fishing pond. sigh. I then sent Weldon out on a 30 minute mission and exited the game. That didn't help. When he finished his mission, he was still in the pond not to be found. I tried exiting the game and getting back in. Nope. So, I flew to Stormshield, exited game and flew back. That didn't help either.

Yes, he's active. No, he's not on a mission.

I changed his traits. Not this time.

I don't know what to do to complete this quest.

Kommentar von 768033

I found the log. Got Weldon Barov as a follower, but when I get back to my Garrison, he is not at the lumber mill. What am I missing?

Kommentar von Zabrina

If your question mark to hand in this quest is at the pond and Weldon is no where to be seen, he is probably on a mission. Just wait until the mission finishes and hand in the quest before you set him on another.

Kommentar von 1556538

just make sure hes not in a mission and he should be there. that was my problem.. after he finished his mission he appeared at the mill.

Kommentar von Tiranuuhl

Was not able to find him for ages.. realized I had sent him on a mission. Waited for the return and was able to turn in the head. No need to upgrade the mill or any of that jazz.

Kommentar von 832794

I went through all of the posts on here and truly not a one of them were of any help.

I happened across Weldon down in the Spires of Arak under a fallen log just outside of Pinchwhistle Gearworks when I was doing the quest called Bringing on the Bass. I was just collecting wood. I got this quest when I got back to the garrison, then went looking for Alexi which I finally found in Shadowmoon Valley at coordinates 45.11, 34.13 via TomTom.. He had a couple of undead and taurans with him, but as a lvl 100 Nightelf Hunter, I made very short work of them.

Kommentar von santipants

FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO ARE BUGGED AT TURNING IT IN

I had tried everything to turn it in when I killed the brother but did not see Alexi in my Garrison. I literally tried everything other people listed here and in other places online, none of it worked. I even opened a ticket because it was so annoying. I even dropped the quest and went and killed him again, still nothing.

What FINALLY worked for me was sending Alexi's stupid butt on enough missions to where he was level 100, then the idiot was walking around my mill with the golden question mark above his head sweet release thank you Shaman Jesus Thrall I believe

Kommentar von moneyfox

Any ideas?

I found Weldon under the tree before I knew what he was for?

I have completed Legacy of the Ancients. My lumber mill is level 2 and I've done the 75+ work orders.

I can't find Weldon to give me the quest to kill his brother.

He's not on a mission. I leveled him to 100. Tried to send him on a mission and wait for him, still nothing! I can't find him in my garrison.

Anyone else had this issue?

Tried de-activating and re-activating, still nothing.

Next step - raising him to epic

* have raised him to epic and still no quest
*A GM ended up fixing it although it wasn't the way it was supposed to be done

Kommentar von vakes

Okay I just completed this quest and you do not have to find small timber within the blue area marked on the map, just any small timber. I got it after maybe my 10th small timber in Nagrand, so just stick with it but it will spawn for you. I hope this helps!

Kommentar von Zarilla

As of Shadowlands 9.2.5 this was a slam dunk!

I had gotten Weldon right after I put up my lumber mill but I didn't pay attention to the quest because I thought it would mean I had to go back to Deadwind Pass... Yes, you can laugh now.

Finally, I was well over the 100 lumber work orders and I had read enough to know it was a required quest. I made sure Weldon was not on a mission and had already scouted some "small timber." Since the majority of mentions here on Wowhead said they had found him in Nagrand I decided to start there. I was clicked on the quest in on in my quest area on my main HUD, and all the the possible areas he could be was highlighted in blue. I flew to the area in Nagrand that showed me the #1. I flew around in that small patch for a little bit and then went to the closest "small timber" tree I knew. I was still 20ft in the area and I saw him and his little band of zombies as they popped up with Orange lettering for names. Rarescanner went off only a faction of a second later. He does a small monologue and then they all turn red. Easy kills at lvl 60.

From the moment I took the quest to the turn in was about 6 minutes. Most of that was gryphon time because I didn't feel like navigating the entire run.

Unlike the Harrison Jones quest there was no problem porting back to my garrison with this quest.

Thank you to everyone who added information to this one. It made it very easy.

Kommentar von cillia

To get this quest, you have to save Weldon Barov. I had max followers so I deactivated him as soon as he became my follower not knowing that he had to be active to give me the Reduction quest. Soon as I reactivated him, he was in the lumbermill with the quest.. Well after collecting 500 wood and standing by too many trees.

Ich war ein Dummkopf, ihm nach dem Fiasko mit dem Familienvermögen der Barovs zu trauen. Ich hätte ihn bei der erstbesten Gelegenheit töten sollen.

Und jetzt glaubt er, dass er dieses Land nach allem Wertvollen absuchen und mich außen vor lassen kann?!

Nein, mein lieber Bruder, diesmal nicht! Es kann nur einen Chef des Barovkonzerns geben, und das bin ich.
