At around 58.80 there is an entrance to a small ravine that leads up to the back of the cave. Mobs are a bit more spread out and it's much easier to solo. There's also a few Tainted One's there as well that are easier to solo than those in the cave.

This does give good exp. I did this as a 27 hunter and when I turned in the quest I got 1950 exp, and then he'll ask you to give something to the guy who is behind him, and that part gives you a pick of a so so item, but also 3150 exp.

So that put me one bar from 28 I killed some wolves and leveled.

I basically picked off the tainted ones from the hill next to tranquil gardens.&nbsp It is a pain because they don't spawn often,but inbetween times I picked off the other ones at the end
of the yard.
Or you could go back to tranquil gardens and
pick off the skellies.

Died 3 times- and I did use some potions.
So, doable for a 27 hunter.

edit: one thing that helped me with adds, I would set an ice trap and if 2 came, I was able to run while they (or one) was stuck in the block.

73,76 is correct, the entrance to the cave is also shown on your map

They are located at 74,74 and those that don't hae the coordinates, its south of Tranquil Garden's Cemetary.

Tip: don't die in the tunnel/cave. The ones in there have a very fast respawn rate and by the time you get back it will be filled with mobs again and you will have to die like 5 times to get out of there.

I just did this today as a level 28 pally...got killed on the hill outside by three the first attempt to pull, then worked my way around picking them off one by one..there is a chest on the hill to the right facing the cave and a barrel to the left in left hand group.&nbsp Used alot of mana...had to take time out during the respawn inside the cave for mana restoration.&nbsp I took on a 32 and a 31 at the same time and did ok and then 3 30 levels at once...just careful with the mana during the melee, not panicking and running, and managing your mana is the key.&nbsp Respawn is relatively fast in the cave...will probably have to fight your way back out.&nbsp Once outside...just skirted to the right and avoided the respawn outside.

mob loc is 74,67 and for those of you to lazy to get the addon its the cave south east of darkshire

Nightbane Tainted One: 62,81

For skinners this is a great area to grind, farm, & quest. At lower levels (high 20s) you can sit on the bluff near the cave entrance and pull them one at a time. If you have bad pull (i.e. Gutspill) you can run back up the hill (check out your escape route first). Watch for chests in the two grouped areas outside the cave -- they show up fairly regularly and can be farmed as you gain levels. Once you can handle two at a time, the first group immediately outside the cave can be easily farmed. The one near the fire you have to be able to take on 3-4 at a time.

Green drop rate is not too bad, and I've gotten at least two blues after an hour or so. If you're on a pvp server it's also out of the way of the most popular Horde ganking routes. Once you are well into your 30s you can continuously farm this and the rotting orchard next door with almost no down time and be rolling in skins. I agree with the comment about the second cave area being a gem as well.

Now, nobody on Darrowmere read this so I can continue to have the place to myself :-)

The tainted ones are in the cave.&nbsp A lvl 29 warrior can do this if you don't mind dying a couple of times.

there was no boss, and there was only 7 of them in the cave so i have to wait for respawn.. like 20 vile fangs outside cave tho

Likely one of the easiest quests I've done in a long time. They are rather spread out so you don't need to take too much care in pulling, just watch out for the camp of 4.

The cave is very shallow sadly, which means that you will likely have to wait for a few to respawn. Especially if there are others waiting on the same thing.

Good Hunting!

I completed this quest easily on my 29 shadow priest. Just go south of Darkshire and you will find the camps. The Tainted One are in the cave south of the camps.

Did this on my 28 shadow priest. Died a couple of times in the cave, mostly because there is a lvl 32 named mob, Gutspill, who gangs with a couple of the other Tainted Ones. He walks to the cave entrance, and can be pulled, but he also respawns quickly, inside the cave, so be careful.

What happened? I handed in the quest to Calor in Duskwood, but when i accepted the next quest (that i should go collect the reward) I only received the system-message: You don't meet the requirements for that quest
Now there isn't even a silver "!" above his head.

I'm level 28 when this happened.

I only got 150 rep for this on my 31 Gnome Mage.

found the tainted ones in the cave ( loc 71 73 ) and the vile fangs outside in groups.. easy to kill one at a time

What the heck is with this quest? The Tainted Ones respawned at a decent rate, but once all of the Viles were wiped out they took an eternity to respawn. The Tainted respawned 5-6 times before I the Vile did.

You can find Tainted One in Southeast Cave

I dont know if the patches tweaked the rate or anything, but as of 12/07/06 , i went to the rotting orchard and snuck around the back to the cave pathway , and i started killing the ones outside the cave by myself... by the time i had finished off the first string, they had all respawned, and i never had to enter tha cave at all to finish the quest.

Edit - Thought it might be nice for me to add... I was a lvl 30 priest when i did this quest solo.

Where are these guys at? having some trouble finding them :(

Vile Fangs are located at about 71, 69. If you go in a little deeper at 73, 75 you'll see a tunnel that harbors the Tainted Ones. Start typing things that people actually need information on instead of I'm level 29 doing this solo! omg...

Nightbane Tainted One

Where can i find them?

lvl 30 hunter

w the 18 kills for around 4000exp and the 3200exp for turn in a big quest.

the only hard part for me was the tainted ones (loc 71.73)
they didnt come out of the cave much. and there were too many to go into the cave solo.

so i got on the hill to the left of the cave and went eyes of beast in the pet into the cave and pulled them out one by one where i could start shooting. easy after that. just keep the area free around you from the other mobs so u dont get jumped. also there is one lvl 32 mov inside that pulls with the tainted one once in a while. that can be close work.

for miners there is a good ore deposit to the left of the cave on the hill.

do this quest solo with my gnome mage lvl 27, easy, but only give me 1900xp, then i got another quest to talk with that guy and give me 3400xp

This quest rewards 150 Stormwind reputation as of patch 2.01
