Description

The mountaineers of Loch Modan are fighting troggs, and having a busy time of it! They need constant supplies of new armor and weapons if we're ever to get a handle on those troggs.

That's why my colleague Thorvald is there, trying to keep the mountaineers in good gear. So if you were to make some copper axes and copper chain belts and bring them to Thorvald, he would be obliged. He might even share his knowledge with you.

Thorvald is in Loch Modan's southern guard tower.

Reward

You will receive:
Plans: Copper Chain Vest

Progress

I have no time to chat. Do you have business with me?

Completion

Ah, apologies! I didn't realize you were here to help resupply our troops. The stuff you made will be a big help!

Here are plans for some armor. I hope you find them useful.

Gains

Upon completion of quests, get:
  • 225 experience (5 40 at max. level)
  • 250 Reputation with Ironforge

Takes some time to make all. You shall know that it will take 12 slots in your bags.

To answer Fiote's question, it's worth it if you want to be a blacksmith who's able to forge as many items as he/she can.
Personally, I try to get all the recipes/plans/schematics/patterns or what not that I can get for that specific trade.
Will you ever use the plans to make the sword? Probably not...hehe

What was the previous reward for this quest? The quest text still says plans for some armor.

Recently discovered that if you did this quest Pre-patch 2.3, you will NOT be able to retrieve the quest reward.

I confirmed this by speaking to the quest giver and with the quest ender. Neither of which would open a dialog box with me. I will put in a request with a blizz GM to reset my quest #1578 to see if it will let me redo the quest and get the reward.

""Why?"" You may ask? - simple.. A level 10 asked for a 300+ Blacksmith... Being 440ish, i felt i could offer anything that my skill could provide to this poor noob... turns out i was just a disappointed to find out i couldn't provide it as well...

So am I assuming that Horde is just SoL on this item? Or am I mistaken?

This quest was epic! I had to venture from SW to IF to start it, then buy materials of the AH to craft the armor and weapons the dwarfs need on 'the Front'. I the had to travel to Loch Modan to hand it in. WoW doesnt seem to offer many zone jumping quests anymore, I remember when a Darkshire chain would make you visit stormwind and wetlands. LF more awesome quests!

For Hordies rolling Ally-side for the first time and thus have zero funds there, I have compiled a few tips to fast track this, and condenses all posts here into one;

- Roll a Human Rogue (stealth+proximity to easy ore) and accept any spammy invite from a leveling guild (25% FP speed increase + gathering proc + corpse run speed buff).
- As soon as you hit level 5 head to Goldshire, take up mining and BS
- Head just south to Fargodeep Mine.
- Shank suckas and loot their Linen Cloth. When you have enough Linen (12), you can stealth past all mobs to the nodes you need like a boss, which comes in handy during busy periods and expedites the process overall.
- Ensure you have 72 Copper Ore, 12 Linen Cloth and at least 29 Rough Stone.
- Craft 29 Rough Sharpening Stone (NOT Rough Weightstone, it will consume your Linen), and smelt your Copper Ore.
- Fly to IF (~48 copper), accept quest from homeboy at the giant forge behind you, buy 6 Weak Flux from his mate. Craft stuff.
- Fly to Gol'Bolar Quarry (free), then hoof it east down the road. Take a right at the fork and Bob's your uncle. Turn in.
- Next part (trade to Horde) kinda sucks, fly to Eastvale Logging Camp and begin your southbound trek to Booty Bay. Stealth may be feeble around red-is-dead mobs but it'll reduce your aggro radius at the very least.
