Location: Kalimdor, Tanaris, entrance cove is 68,41. the cape on the east
you will find Metzen in the middle of the village, in a stable.
There are 4 mobs infront and several around.
Mobs is about lvl 44-45.
If you are not much higher or even lvl 60, bring friends for help,cause they all attack at the same time.

The target is also located near 70, 34 in Seraing Gorge. This is the road intersection to the SW of the tunnel entrance.

He is surrounded by multiple 45-47 mobs which will come at you in a group of about 5 or 6.

Easily soloed with a 60 Mage (of course), but with a little help you should be able to do it as low as 45.

Found Metzen the Reindeer at 68|34 in Searing Gorge (Dustfire Valley).

Kommentar von TheOnyx

Keep in mind that, while the Fresh Holly you receive from the Revelers is soulbound, this quest reward is not soulbound. Preserved Holly may be given to other players (or auctioned in the Auction House).

This can be done quite easilly if your willing to sacrifice yourself as the Reindeer does not need to be used.

Just run in and speak to the reindeer, then choose the option in the message box.

I did have the help of me voidwalker to take most of the heat though. Was level 42 when completed this.

1000 Gold Ransom? hmm guys, we better go to Outlands and farm some gold. JK, you dont give them any money but kill the captors. In Tanaris, Lost Rigger cove, right before the building next to the ship building place

In addition to monetary and experience rewards, the quest also gives +500 rep with Steamwheedle Cartel upon completion.

Kommentar von Deluxe05

This gave 9,000 XP & 500 Steamwheedle Cartel faction/reputation.

Kommentar von Cernunous

Found at 73, 48 inside stable in Lost Rigger Cove encampment.

Kommentar von cjsommie

For anybody thats never been to Searing G, the best way to get there for horde is Undercity - Arathi Highlands - Wetlands - Loch Modan - Searing Gorge. I'm just posting because at lvl 45 I've never been there and I spend 2 hours trying all kinds of different ways.

I soloed this with my mage at 44 and here's how: I went to Lost Rigger Cove and hugged the coast till I got to the fort. I walked in the main gate rather than going around to where the ships are, though. If you plan it just right you can pick off a lot of the lone walkers without drawing a crowd. You'll see Metzen right when you walk in but he's behind a few mobs. Pick off a few lingering pirates who might draw bigger mobs than you need. Then get ready, erect your mana shield, run towards Metzen, Blink then as the mobs swarm you quickly click on metzen to talk to him, (the sprinkle dust command is in the text box so don't worry about having your bags open), click to sprinkle the magical dust, he will be freed and you will be killed. It's sad but you can res at the healer for a quest complete and a job well done! Merry Christmas everyone!

Kommentar von lolmagic

....Then get ready, erect your.....

Why do I find this funny, even at my age?

Kommentar von 83719

It will be a bit strange and also kinda nostalgic to return to Tanaris as a lvl 80 orc warrior, save poor Metzen from the fearsome lvl 44-45 mobs, and as I'm already there, beat the crap out of the camp to take my revenge for they didn't drop the last piece of the map when I was only 40 (Cuergo's Treasure Map anyone remembers this sweetie?). Man, I just love achievments :)

Kommentar von Zillions

Do we know if this will count towards the Loremaster of Kalimdor achievement?

Kommentar von 274975

Confirmed to be at 73,48 in Tanaris, just behind Andre Firebeard in the stable.

Kommentar von 222465

Small tip - take the portal from Dalaran to COT for a faster route.

Kommentar von Beramus

Right now it does not give out Steamwheedle Cartel rep anymore

Named after Chris Metzen, Game Designer and scriptwriter at blizzard.

Photo of him here:

Pretty much a heavyweight, bearded, humanized version of a Reindeer.

Kommentar von 263717

This quest is completeable in both spots, Just do what is more convent to you.

Mind you if you are PVP you might want to be careful where you go. I did it at Tarn as a Alliance and saw like no one there. Maybe because it is to far away from most major cities, who knows?

Kommentar von 35921

Was having trouble with this. Got to Metzen fine, but couldn't free him (no item). The dust won't be in your bag if you open it whilst in a raid group.

Kommentar von 260185

i couldnt start it the person who gives the quest didnt have a ! above her head?

Kommentar von 260185

and where are the pirates?

Kommentar von 281529

He's in a village behind CoT, easily soloable by a lvl 45 warlock with the voidwalker out.

The trick is to send in the voidwalker at the mobs first and while the VW is fighting them, talk to Metzen and complete. Since a lot of people will be doing this quest, you can ask for help.

Kommentar von 260185

I'm a lvl 35 and the person didn't have a ! above it's head

Kommentar von 160394

Both Metzen the Reindeer (Orgrimmar) and Metzen the Reindeer (Ironforge) count towards 3000 Quests Completed, and both can be done regardless of what faction you are.

Correspondingly, both follow-up quests The Hero of the Day (Orgrimmar) and The Hero of the Day (Ironforge) also count towards 3000 Quests Completed.

Kommentar von Ateo

Soloed fairly easily as a 42 prot pally. The most dangerous moment comes when approaching Metzen - it's quite easy to aggro 8 to 10 mobs (which I did, but Lay on Hands was enough to see me through the fight -- didn't even have to bubble).

If you haven't done the following quests already, be sure to pick them up before heading off to save Metzen, since they're all at the same location:

Stoley's Shipment (http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=2873)
Southsea Shakedown (http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=8366)
Pirate Hats Ahoy! (http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=8365)
Wanted: Andre Firebeard (http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=2875)

Kommentar von tykimikk

fastest way to get there is to take the portal in dalaran that leads to CoT and then when your done hearth back to dalaran and take the portal to org.

Kommentar von 254295

Does anyone know if this will lower bloodsail rep?

Kommentar von 318841

For those who arent interested in who can solo those noob mobs and dont know where is the dust (http://www.wowhead.com/?item=21211), its contained in http://www.wowhead.com/?item=21211 which should be given to ur inventory. After u have looted the dust in ur inventory, just talk to reindeer and *nerdscream* its completed!

Spend some minutes to get it myself :p

Kommentar von 413549

500steamweedle rep for turning it up.
you wont be loosing rep with bloodsail buccaneers so this will be good rep quest for
Insane in The Membrane

edit:

"This quest was marked obsolete by Blizzard and cannot be obtained or completed."

Kommentar von 307168

Maybe I've messed this up. I'm ally, have completed the Searing Gorge one. I want to do the one in Tana ... but no quest line, no item in bags, how do I get to do this again? Need the rep for Steamwheedle.

Kommentar von 611787

Cataclysm Update: Metzen is in the same location in Tanaris as he has always been (72.3,48.1). The long building behind him is gone but his pen and he are still in the same place.

Kommentar von Cutthroat

Metzen can be found at Tanaris in the middle of the fight between Southsea Pirates and Bilgewater Cartel forces.

Kommentar von remotettl

still can say, hs in tanaris and in searing gorge now. both locations works.

Kommentar von DaemoniKira

This quest has now been turned into So was Gemeines.../So was Gemeines..., which is the one needed for the Winterhauchengel meta-achievement.
