This quest is quite irritating, make sure to get the Flame in a Bottle from next to the quest giver after you pick up the quest.

The camp like the quest says is in between Felstone and Dalson's. It contains Hunter and Mage Scarlet Mobs primarily. Pick off the mobs individually as fighting more than one can get bad fast. Keep up a fast pace as they respawn fairly quickly. When all of them are killed burn the tent and place the flag.

Though this quest is very annoying it leads into a chain dealing with the fields in WPL and their cauldrons that give really fast and awesome EXP. Doing the whole chain line is about 70k exp and doable in about an hour. Don't get discouraged by this first quest.

The camp can be found at 40, 53.

Soloed this one as a 53 Affliction lock. Cleared out one side and was able to light the tent and plant the flag. Careful of the Medics. They will heal each other.

Tent located at coords in nullzone's post.

tent respawned super quick when I was there

Kommentar von 35155

This quest is really great if you have a few people with you especially since the mobs are like 51-54 for the lvl 50s its better to clear this area and then always make sure you have the fire with you.(People forget it sometimes) just don't rush this quest

Kommentar von 43147

Wow, wtf, was just doing this, you can do solo easy at 51-52. Had error which caused me to die ..., but wait, when i come back all the ones I killed respawned. This area has fast respawn rate. And as above said, watch out for the meds healing each other.

Kommentar von Sprea

I had real problems with this quest with my 53 warrior. I wasn't able to kill them fast enough before they respawned.

Finally I cleared out enough on the west side so I could get close enough and torch the tent and plant the banner.

If you're a meele class just use your gun or pull by presence, be careful tho since you might get more than you can handle.

Kommentar von 37721

Doing it rigth now, really hard because they pull each other. I've died 5 times so far, i'm 51 fury war. i would say wait a lvl with this one.

Kommentar von Dvulin

pritty hard, but not impossible...

lvl 52 frost mage. got whiped twice...

a tip for all mages ...
you should attack from east .. sometimes you have to kill 2 "mages" at the same time, they will use arcane missiles ... so you should pull with sheep :) and then it's easy

Easycakes as a 57 Shaman =D

You'll need lots of spell interuption because of the Arcane bolt thing. Its pwnage.

Kommentar von 63938

It was easy with 51 undead priest.

Actually I did not challenged them. They've killed theirselves! I controlled one of them with mind control one by one!!

Kommentar von Jadesinx

I had the hardest time here as a 50 paladin.
The invokers are hard as hell...I wiped by them like 5-6 times. XD

Kommentar von 52070

just to let you know... you dont have to burn the tent, all you need to do is plant the flag and the quest is done!

why do I know? because i forgot to pick up the damn flame in a bottle, so i thought i might just plant the flag first... and what do you know? quest completes!

Kommentar von 76172

The coords are right. I soloed it as a 50 shaman. No big problem. Only the Invokers was a bit annoying channeling Arcane Missiles. Just keep Lightning Shield up and keep Earth Shocking them =)

Kommentar von 76172

oh, and one more thing. You don't have to kill EVERYONE to set the tent on fire. The two first guys I killed spawned after I had killed the rest. They were a bit far away so I just went in and put the tent on fire. Piece of cake.

Kommentar von 67073

As a 50 BM hunter i had no problem, just made sure i pulled single or double targets and frost trapped one.

Kommentar von denza

I soloed as 52 rogue. Pull - kill - bandage - pull - kill - bandage... But have to be very-very quick to kill 'em all.

Kommentar von 88186

I was able top just barely complete this quest at level 50 and a couple of points on this that were able to make it possible for me to finish. First off, setting the tent on fire can be done while mobs are beating on you. I had one mob shooting arrows at me and was still able to set fire to the tent. It is treated the same as a spell meter and would just slow down when I got hit. Also, you have to both set the tent on fire and plant the banner, but not at the same time. I burned the ten, was murdered by a medic (oh, the irony) and was able to come back and plant the banner a bit behind the respawned tent and got the completed message. Hope that helps anyone who might be a little too low to be able to sneak in and complete quest.

Kommentar von 88582

this quest sucks. reaaaaaally bad.

Kommentar von bleakraven

Did it fast with a 51 balance druid...

Hibernate the dogs, root the hunters, dot them and spam them with wrath and/or starfire ^^

For the medics and mages i rooted them, doted and casted force of nature so it would delay their spells a bit ^^

Flag and bottle have a nice range so i only cleared half a side of the tent ^^ good luck <3

Kommentar von 21986

This quest is pretty bad. The mobs spawn very fast, they are close enough to aggro the neighboring mobs, and they run when low on health. Oh yea, and if you die most or all of the mobs will respawn by the time you get back from your annoying ghost run. Oh yea, and melee types will have a lot of fun pulling the casters from range.

Kommentar von 44284

heh, here is a trick if you are doing this on an alt.

Park your alt outside of the area with the tent. Log out. Bring in your 70. Kill everyone. Quickly log into your alt. Destroy the tent and plant the banner. Go home.

Kommentar von 65622

Yellow at lvl 54, yeah right. As a rogue this is practically impossible, even trying to pull long range. The mobs have an aggro radius the size of China.

Kommentar von adelaide

the Flame in a Bottle is in a BOX next to the quest givers.

Kommentar von adelaide

56 shadow priest...completed in less than 2 minutes. clear out the northwest side...don't need to get too close. burned it down and planted the flag right after another. done. EASY quest. i thought it'd be a lot harder after i read all the complaining on here.

Kommentar von Kowalski

After patch 2.3, 7600XP @ lvl 54

Kommentar von Rasztra

Overall, a very difficult quest. Perhaps the most difficult in the game (relative to level and Blizzard's expectations).

- Casters' Arcane Missiles are very high damage to take in.
- Hunters have pets to deal with.
- Medics can heal themselves and others.
- Mobs are bunched together, so pulling often results in aggro-ing several and running for your life.
- VERY fast respawn timers.
- Cannot plant flag in combat.

I completed the quest as a well-geared, level 51 pom-pyro mage without dying (although I ran for my life several times). Here's how I did it:

1) Make sure to take the Fire in a Bottle from behind the quest giver before you leave!
2) Use any means necessary to get to the tent and set it ablaze (by right-clicking it). You can do this in combat, and damage only slows the process down (it does not stop you from setting it on fire). I simply pulled a side towards me, casted frost nova, and ran in and set it on fire (while getting hit slightly). Then I ran for my life.
3) Approach the camp from the north, killing as fast as you can. The tent will respawn from being on fire, but don't worry about it. Keep killing until you can stand right next to the dirt patch near the tent without being in combat.
4) Use the tent given to you by the quest giver, and run for your life again.

Kommentar von 92117

This quest is NOT hard if you are a ranged class.

Pull from far away.
If you do pull more than one, kill medics first, then invokers, then hunters.
You can stand on the table and burn the tent, you dont have to kill the mobs behing the tent.

Did this without breaking a sweat as a level 52 fire mage.

Kommentar von tashima

easy peasy, one run, pulled all singles, no repawns, done in 5 minutes as a 51 hunter

Kommentar von Chavslag

When I went to do this q another group had just burnt the tent as I arrived. Turns out that as long as you plant the flag while there's no tent, then the q counts as completed.

No fighting of annoying mobs for me :)

Kommentar von 137972

Some helpful hints if your paladin, or partying with one. Try to pull one mob at a time, and judge seal of justice to prevent the mob from running and aggroing more enemies. When fighting the mages, I assume our arcane defense is pretty bad, so after judging justice, don't use seal of light to heal yourself, they will out damage it. Instead, spam concentration and use seal of righteousness. Kill before being killed is the main princapal for this quest.

Kommentar von jeffreytsg

I am a lvl 60 resto druid - just did this quest in about 4 minutes.

Approach from the NW, by the tree. Kill the closest two MOBs, and that should allow you to get to the tent and plant the banner.

I was in Cat form, Pounce, Shred, Rake/Claw and then FerBite. Popped out to cast Barkskin, Moonfire and was done.

Granted I am lvl 60

Just be ready to run.

Kommentar von 63794

Please note that this quest is not possible as a 53 combat-swords rogue.

Kommentar von 115430

Sadly this quest requires you read the quest text and pick up the bottle of flames before going to do the quest.

Naturally I cleared all around the tent and had to run back to the NPC for the flames :D

Kommentar von bernlin2000

Was doing fine with a 52 druid...and then I remembered I didn't have the flame in the bottle, because for some reason Blizzard decided not to give it to you when u get the quest! Overall, this is a pretty lame quest, it can be quick but if you can find some ppl to help its much easier.

Kommentar von 162488

I have finished it with a 52 warlock. not very hard for a warlock. to burn the tent you need to come from behind the tent... kill two mobs and then send your void to argo all of them... while they are all busy killing your void, burn the tent...

to place the flag... its easier from front... kill three mobs in front and you dont have to be too close to place the flag. :)

Kommentar von Glows

When on my 53 priest I tried to pull a mage, he was "chained" with a hunter, I couldn't pull one smite off because the mage's arc. missiles hit me like every other 0.3 seconds, and the hunters arrows, and dogs didin't help either.
Kthxbai...

Kommentar von 83076

The mobs on this quest are wayyyyy too close to each other and it makes me angry

Kommentar von 146819

The mobs around the tent seem to have really f***ed up aggro tables. My Voidwalker had the attention of 3 of them while I was trying to plant the flag (didn't know that you had to be out of combat to do it), and for some reason they kept pulling off of him and attacking ME.

Kommentar von persiarash

I don't know what you guys are talking about... I pulled the mobs one by one using lightning on my 51 shaman, and the most I ever agroed was 2... Here are some things I did which might help other shamans:

After you pull one of the mobs, run back about 10 steps and then start attacking, this way if the mob decides to run you can easily kill it before it grabs more mobs. Also if the target is attacking you from range they will have to run towards you to get within range again, which takes them away from the others.
If you have more than one mob on you and one of them is a mage, make sure you earthshock it every time the CD is up, this ensures the mage won't attack you for at least another 2 seconds. (will also make the mage run towards you if its far away)
Pulling is all about geometry, I approached this from the south side, and honestly if you just make sure that the mob won't run diagonally into other mobs you should be fine.
Don't fight the hunter's pet first, kill the hunter ASAP. Also even if you're a caster, get within melee range of the hunters, they hit much lower with their melee weapons...
And if you ever screw up, just earthbind and ghost wolf for your life (and make sure you don't run into the farm next door, it can get ugly).
Grounding Totem only takes in 1 of the mage's arcane missile hits, but its still pretty useful so use it ;P

Oh and I'm not sure about this, but the mages seemed to have a bigger agro range than the other mobs... Hope this helped :S

Kommentar von Toloran

I think the quest is bugged at the moment because I just completed the quest by placing the banner and didn't have to set the tent on fire.

Kommentar von moggsy

This quest will go down in history as being the most QQ-worthy quest pre Wrath of the Lich King.

Kommentar von Raek

this quest is way too hard for its level, the monsters are pretty much 2 feet away from each other

Kommentar von Grindalwald

I died twice clearing the camp, and went to light the tent and had no flame in a bottle. DON'T FORGET TO GRAB THE FLAME IN A BOTTLE FROM THE BOX NEXT TO THE QUEST GIVER. Ran out of water the second time and couldn't clear the mobs fast enough without it. Lighting the tent can be done in combat and is an instant cast. Planting the flag is a 2 second cast and is interupted upon entering combat. I had to go back to uc to buy more more water and clear a third time to plant the flag.

Kommentar von 242322

First off, I'd like to say that this quest is very challenging and confusing.
GRAB THE FIRE IN A BOTTLE IN THE BOX NEXT TO THE QUEST GIVER
Once you find the camp, which is around 42, 52 for coordinate users.

Pull off the mobs one at a time, it's a lot easier to do it from the north of the camp.

Once all the mobs are out of the way, right click on the tent to burn it down.
After that's out the way, right click on the flag to plant it. Make sure the tent is gone.

Once again, it's a very challenging quest, but the quests that it leads to are very good for the EXP that they deliver.

Kommentar von 232519

Was able to do this today without burning the tent. I planted the banner and ofcourse forgot the flame. Went back for it and I was able to complete the quest.

Kommentar von 309179

This quest is completely impossible for my 54 rogue :(. I'd say be at least 56 before trying...

Kommentar von Artomis

Yeah a very frustrating mission for my 52 feral druid. As stated in other posts, you can set the tent on fire while getting beaten on but if you try to plant the banner while getting hit, it'll be interupted. I had to clear the 3 mobs on the north side of the tent along with the mob outside the tent before I could plant it without interuption. The mobs are so close together that they often chain aggro with 2-3 at a time. After lots of bearing up and running away, I found I was able to pull them one at a time with star or moon fire if I got lucky but be prepared for 2 or more at a time. Best done with a group or a pet.

Kommentar von wye43

I completed this quest on 8 alts during 4 years, and I forget to take the flame in a bottle every damn time. Bad quest design.

Kommentar von 336883

If you have two people and are still having trouble... Don't party. Have one run in and grab aggro while you do your thing and then do the same for the other person. Easiest way.

53 Hunter and I still had a problem with it solo. The burning the tent isn't the problem... It's just planting the flag out of combat.

Kommentar von 337714

First go around, this quest was very difficult. Tried running through, killing as quickly as possible, but still ended up getting swarmed. My level 51 Hunter went in with a level 51 priest, decent armor, but not the greatest.

Figured out a fantastic way around having to kill all the men that surround the tent:
- Make sure you have both the flame and the flag.
- Must have two players; both must be mounted.
- One person streaks through the camp on their mount, left to right. Passing between the tent and the table seems best, as the casters are to the left and the hunters to the right. Following only a little ways behind, the second person can burn the tent. Back off until all the men return and then go through again, the same way, this time placing the flag.

If you don't get knocked off your mount, you should be able to keep a tight train and not pull aggro to the person burning and flagging. A PRIEST was able to act as diversion for me to flag and burn, so this should work for any combination of classes.

After working with this method, we were able to complete this quest in about 30 minutes. It only took this long because there is a short learning curve.

Kommentar von 295750

The most unfair quest in the entire game....

Kommentar von 127088

Right next to quest giver there is a box. You must open it in order to take Flame in a Bottle. The camp is at 40:51 in Western Plaguelands. It is not too difficult. Just kill some of the mobs to get to the tent, than use Flame in a Bottle and after that use Scourge Banner. after that all you can go back to quest giver (Hight Executor Derrington).

where do i get "Flame in a Bottle" from? please tell me this quest is quiet annoying! thanks! =D

This has to be one of the worst quests i have ever done. After about 10 tries i did solo it on a 50 enhance shaman though :)

Kommentar von 181086

This is still one of the anoying quests in wow, have had trouble with my fury warrior lvl 55,
And like always forgot to pick up the fire bottle. Dont forget the bottle when you pick up the quests.

Kommentar von 366195

As a lvl 51 protection pally, this quest was a piece of cake especially having a healing druid nearby.The hunters are preatty awfull especially if you're a spellcaster so try getting in melee range for them since they will hit MUCH less damage and way slower.

Hope this helped you

Kommentar von 370604

Did easy as a level 54 hunter, made one mistake tho, sent my dog in as a tank and pulled a huge mob! Next try I just put him on passive, shot each one to pull then let the dog loose and shot away. Took about 3 minutes to kill all of em, burn the tent and plant the flag, very easy one for this level anyway.

Kommentar von 148144

i know many people said it, but i as well HATE this quest.
if you are leveling an alt, i seriously suggest to kill everything with your main. and then just do the job with the alt.

Kommentar von 388997

Do you need to get the call to arms quest before you can get this one?

Kommentar von 271963

I completed this as a 53 Demon Lock.

Its rough because all the enemies are tightly packed together. But they can be pulled away and separated if you work carefully. However you my die once or twice in the process.

For locks, put your pet on passive. Since there are a lot of casters, use the felhunter.

Make sure you have the Fire in the Bottle and the flag.

I approached from behind the tent. Pulled the invoker there, let him chase me then set the felhunter on him. After finishing him, I took down one of the hunters. Then worked my way around the left side of the tent, the side with all the Medics. The Medics can be pulled one by one. But watch out, at the end they run in fear and pull other medics. After clearing a small patch, I set the felhunter on the invoker in front of the tent. After getting rid of that enemy, I set the tent on fire and planted the flag.

Don't loot the bodies, these enemies rez fast. Be careful with the use of fear. You may send an enemy straight into the middle of the camp. Keep Curse of Tongue up on the casters at all times. It will slow them down a bit.

If you are an alchemist, Lifeblood is extremely valuable. You can cast it and completely heal during a fight.

Kommentar von 386798

Did it as a 55 combat swords rogue. Attack from the north as others have recommended. I did a combination of sapping mages and pulling hunters out of their bow range so I could take them one at a time.

Blade Flurry is helpful, as is the ability to recover quickly from one encounter and get onto the next. Bring bandages, food and healing pots. Once the mobs are gone from the north and northeast of the tent, you can complete the quest without aggroing the remaining mobs.

Kommentar von ColdKiller

I had no trouble doing this as a lvl 54 prot warrior.

The first time i went from the south and accidentaly aggroed about 5-7 mobs, Shield Wall + Shield Block allowed me to kill about 3 or 4 using Revenge, Thunder Clap and Cleave to kill them all quckly, then when i got there i realized i needed the Flame in a Bottle, so i went back, got the flame, went to the scarlet camp, went in from the north side and had no problems taking 2 mobs at time.

Kommentar von 96783

Wasn't able to plant this banner at first, then i logged and disabled cartographer addon I was then able to do this quest fine

Kommentar von siltian

soloed as a 53 feral druid single aggro then use mangle continously til dead
kill all on the right side

-invoker
-2 front medics
-back medic on right

go to the right side of invoker table and destroy tent (does not aggro them)
plant banner

Kommentar von 448642

Quest is easy if you are a Pali with Hand of Reckoning. Might work with other classes that have a spell to taunt the target to attack you. Use Hand of Reckoning to pull the individual mobs until a side is cleared, burn the tent and plant the flag. Only takes a few minutes to do.

Kommentar von Aldun

I cant remember how many times I nerdraged on this quest on my 50 prot pally. They die slow, are with many and its a gayquest.

- Tried to clear and DIE *!@#ing 4 times to find out I didnt have the bottle.
- Finally manage to clear, but gotta run before i can plant the banner.
- Clear again after 2 tries, to find out bottle disappeared from first try.

Friggin box to the right of the npc, not sparkling, can't loot it...have abandoned and accepted quest twice but still can't loot it...help!

Kommentar von bhorowitz

I just solo'd this quest on my level 52 shadow priest, they must have reduced the respawn time, because, i cleared the whole camp, and then realized that i had to grab the bottle. i went back to the camp, and none of the mobs respawned. another thing, for priests. you should mind control one of the medics, and have them cast thier arcane resist buff on you. it makes it easier to kill the mages. and many of the other undead casters in EPL/WPL. it gives you 81 arcane resist for an hour, so even if you already finished this quest, as a priest, i would Mind control a mob before your about to go questing and get the buff on yourself. its very useful.

oh and i'm sure if you've read down to this poin you've already heard, but i think its very important that you remember: DONT FORGET TO GRAB THE FLAME IN A BOTTLE BEFORE YOU GO AND DO THE QUEST!
Happy hunting!

Counts towards the Loremaster of Eastern Kingdoms achievement.

Kommentar von 420211

As a frost mage with water elemental it's easily possible to take 3 mobs at once. Just popping ice barrier and mana shield, then polymorphing the hunters should be good enough. Counterspell the invokers as much as possible, or pop frost/fire ward.

This quest is cake as long as you ranged-pull and remember the flame-in-a-bottle.

Kommentar von 428852

This quest is impossible to do on my rogue. What a giant PITA. Blizzard you really dropped the ball on this one. Bad job. Pull your heads out of rear ends and try again.

Kommentar von GoHF

If you have a high level character on the same server, log the lower level character off near the camp, log on your high level character and clear the camp. Although the mobs respawn quite fast, you'll have enough time to relog on your lower level character and complete the quest. This is an unusually tough quest for the level it's available, as mobs are quite packed, many are ranged and you must be out of combat to complete the quest.

Kommentar von 564414

Wow, this quest is pure crap. Don't waste your time, unless you're a total brain dead glutton for punishment. Go quest in Un'goro or Winterspring instead, seriously. Plagueland quests all suck, especially for the Horde.

the Flame in a Bottle is in a BOX next to the quest givers.

THIS!

I did this quest, beat all the bad guys, only to find out i did not have the bottle to set the tent on fire. U have to have the bottle to complete this quest, the OP must have played on a older patch before blizz fixed this quest.

I wish the quest giver would just give you the item u need.
