The Sleeping Druid

Bring a Shaman Voodoo Charm to Oben Rageclaw in the Ban'ethil Barrow Den.
Shaman Voodoo Charm

Description

The Gnarlpine shaman that inhabit this place have discovered a way of separating a sleeping druid's spirit from the physical body. The furbolg have animated my physical form and are using it to attack anyone that attempts to explore the Ban'ethil Barrow Den. I am now trapped in the Emerald Dream, powerless to stop this.

You must help me. The Gnarlpine shaman carry a strange charm which is used to perform this ritual, and I'd like to examine it. Please, <name>, bring one to me.

Progress

If I can examine the charm, I may be able to figure out how to break the enchantment. Have you found one?

Completion

Thank you, <name>.

What an odd trinket this is... I can sense the vile aura emanating from it; this is a very powerful enchantment.

Gains

Upon completion of quests, get:
  • 700 experience (4 20 at max. level)
  • 250 Reputation with Darnassus

The easiest way to do this quest is to go with a party. The charm is a group loot item, so killing as many shamans as you can for the drop is the most efficient.

Easy enough quest (was able to solo as a level 9 druid), but the drop rate is awful so expect to be down here for a while - you should kill enough to level, at least. Careful, however, some pulls will net you two or three mobs.

Walked in as lvl 9, got out as lvl 12. Terrible droprate indeed. If there are more people in here, make sure that you at least try to team up with them, or you could very well end up in here forever.

You walk into this cave a boy, and you come out a man. I am sure some people do get the charm quickly, but I was one of the unfortunate few to get a few levels grinded out of it. Not that I mind terribly slow, just you are in for a long trip T_T

This quest is a waste of time. The drop rate is horrible. The coordinates for Oben Rageclaw in the cave are 44.96 and 61.48.

Good luck and the other posters weren't kidding about going in and leveling twice.

I could not find the charm in the cave. After exiting the cave I checked the map (map with quests in Patch 3.3) and it sent me to an area east of the cave and mountains surrounding it. Found the charm on the first shaman I killed.

With the addon questhubber for loremaster does these quests not show up.. so if you are a paladin or warrior and want the full Stormwind guard look, you have to search for these quests down in the cave..

As you come down to first road split walk over the bridge on the right hand side.. and you will get the quest..

happy hunting.

I would suggest getting out of the cave and going to the various patches around that the map shows. Since WoW has a tracking system now all you have to do is hit the according quest number on the map and it should light up where you will find these shamans. I got out of the cave to do this and I got it on the second patch of gnarlpines.

Yes, it's a horribly low drop rate. Yes, you'll gain 1-2 levels grinding this out. But, this quest and the followup are worth about 2000XP at level 9-10. The really big problem is, once you've found the charm, how do you get back to Oben Rageclaw to turn in the blasted quest? If you follow the map to the northern bridge where the yellow question mark says he should be...he's not there.

Remember that this is a two-level cave complex. From that northern bridge with the misleading question mark, go up the entrance tunnel and you'll be back at the upper level. The side-by-side bridges are right there. Oben is on the right, his spirit (which you have to kill for the followon quest) is on the left. For a better picture, hit your M key to bring up the map, then scroll between the two levels to orient yourself.
