You need to go to Strahnbad (62,44). Goldir is in the bulding directly southwest of the clocktower building.

He's in Strahnbrad in Alterac. In the Inn on the second floor. 59,43
First you neeed the key, Kill Jailor Burhuin for the rusted key.&nbsp He's located in the building just north (next door) to the inn, in the clocktower.

While you're here, there's another quest you can complete in the basement of them inn, the quest is called "WANTED: Baron Vardus".

You can find Jailor Burhuin in the clock tower in Strahnbrad. It is the northern-most building there.

Gol'dir is on the top floor of the building that looks like an inn/tavern. Be prepared to deal with at least a half dozen Syndicate mobs, though not at one time. Jailor Borhuin has the key you need, and he usually spawns in the room before you reach Gol'dir. If he's not there, you will need to search the other buildings (except the northernmost building).

What a pain in the butt this quest is. The loc of the buildings is: 61,44. The first part is that you need the Iron Key and the Jailer has it. He was level 37 when I found him and I'm not sure if his level fluctuates like a few of the other NPC's in the game. When you are in the general area of the buildings you need to keep an eye open for spies. They're stealthed and are a nuisance. Track Hidden sucks ass but have it up anyhow and make your way into the building get the key. Once you have the key you need to enter the build that looks like an Inn. It gonna be guarded by stealth mobs once you get inside. Kill them then you need to kill all the wizards and more hidden mobs. Make your way to the 2nd floor and kill more of the same. Gol'dir is ball and chained and is in the deepest part of the middle room.

My results:
You gain 2800 experience.
Your reputation with Orgrimmar has increased.

Note that while the quest says "Free Gol'dir then return to Krusk in Tarren Mill.", it actually ends at Gol'dir, where you get a new quest to return to Tarren Mill.

I soloed this as a 37 Shammy and didn't die.&nbsp Just be careful and don't pull too many.

Get the key first - from Jailor Burhuin - in a house opposite the inn 62,44.

Then fight your way to Gol'dir who is in the top level of the inn 60,43 to complete the quest.

I found the jailor in the town hall, but beforehand I had seen him in the inn which leads be to believe the spawn location is random. Once you have the key off the jailor, just talk to Gol'dir on the second floor of the inn and get the follow-up quest to return to Krusk.

Anything you can use to slow or root mages makes this a cakewalk.

Warriors, hamstring.
Mages, frost nova.
Hunters, wing clip.
Rogues, stunlock.
Shaman, earthbind totems.
Druids and Priests, use your imagination.
Paladins and warlocks, push your I.W.I.N. buttons.

Solo'd it as a 36 warrior. Took everything one pull at a time, never dropped below 60% health. Two or three of those mages will wipe you though, but if you're careful and PATIENT you'll do fine.

A little trick when looking for someone. Write a macro "/target Gol'dir" (in this case) and map it to a key. Then as you walk round you can just continually hit the key until the mob is found. This macro is quickly edited anytime you need to find someone.

tloc is correct, this approach can work for most classes, it was just easier as hunter:&nbsp I use tracking to find gol'dir/jailor, jailor was next to gol'dir.&nbsp ganker was killing me, so I let myself die where I could rez IN THE ROOM with gol'dir, behind the doorframe to avoid being spotted. used range to draw jailor in without pulling the 2nd assassin.&nbsp

If the jailor runs he does NOT call for help (or didn't for me), so i waited till he came back to finish him off and completed the quest.

This is the first time a ganker actually HELPED me, lmao!

Just solo'd as a 34 sub Rogue. Didn't even need potions, just my poisons. Took me thirty minutes, fifteen of which were spent on a hill outside of town, waiting for the Alliance to leave.
The jailor won't pull anyone when he runs, don't even bother chasing him or trying to slow him down. Just take the opportunity to use a bandage, and finish him off when he returns.
Getting through the inn is easy, just watch your step. It's crowded in there, and if they get the chance to run, they'll find one or two more to come back with.

Just did it, easy easy solo, actually did some blizzard AEing to clear the town out faster after picking off the casters.&nbsp I had no problems completing it, but i did talk to goldir before killing the jailor, maybe that's important?

It's not broken just a little buggy
If you see a grey question mark and you have the key, just run over the entrance to the room he's held in, I had to shift out of cat form for it to recognize me.

I just did it as a 36 Rogue without too much problem.&nbsp Had to use a couple pots when I'd end up drawing aggro from two guys at once - but otherwise, most of the time it's easy enough to go 1x1.&nbsp If you're a rogue, don't forget to vanish if you get in trouble!&nbsp &nbsp I found the jailer in the building SOUTHWEST (not SE) of the clocktower, in the room just outside Gol'Dir.&nbsp I went after the mage in one of the side rooms, who ran and drew both a rogue and the Jailor - barely got through that fight!

As a rogue I solo'd this quest at 34. I definately reccomend using a catseye elixir or two to help navigate through the hidden spies. I helped others do this quest later on, and APPARENTLY the jailor spawns in several different places, which is why I had such an easy time because for me he was in the room right outside of Gol'Dir, with only one other mob near him. But later on helping someone else he was in the town hall surrounded by about 5 others. It would have been extremely difficult to pull that off by myself, if possible at all, making use of sap and using a bunch of potions and flashpowder. Gol'Dir however is always in the same spot, hang to the right on the 2nd floor of the inn-like building facing east.

My whole body hurts from how horrible a quest this is. I have difficulty with it at level 41. Absolutely LAME, close quarters sucks big time. Anyone have a suggestion on what traps to use? Freezing Trap doesn't seem to cut it as you get rushed by about 3-4 Spies. Those Syndicate.... -_-

I soloed this easily at L36 Mage. Cabon's info is incorrect. Goldir is on the second floor of the inn. Jailer is in the two-story house building across from the Smithy.

AREA LOCATION:
Alterac Mountains. Strahnbrad* Village. Almost true North from Tarren Mill.
NOTES:
The village is run by Rogues (levels 34-36) permanently in stealth mode, and Wizards of same levels.
KEY LOCATION:
To free Gol'dir you MUST find a red Key first. It was (2/2 times) in the hands of a human: Jailor Borhuin (level 37). He was (2/2 times) at the dilapidated City Hall in Strahnbrad.
GOLDIR'S LOCATION:
Gol'dir is at the second floor in Strahnbrad's ruined Inn (3/3 times that I found him he was there).
FINAL NOTES:
Gol'dir will give you a quest to be delivered at Tarren Mill.

*A typo where I called this village Stratholme has been corrected.

I soloed this as 33 hunter though it was a bit of a challenge.
I had to use feign death ones and to kill the jailor melee style because of the small rooms in the inn.
But it can be done and the xp is nice :)

God damn this is impossible as a 35 warrior. If you get single pulls you're fine, but the fact the mages run around like idiots even with hamstring on makes this practically impossible.

I'll go back there next level and see what happens.

I solo'd the quest at Lvl 37. I used my succubus which helped a great deal. The jailor was in the inn (similar to the one in Brill) on the second floor, inside a room with a syndicate wizard. Gol'dir was in an extension of the room, I just had to walk to the back of the room to find him.

When you enter the inn keep to the right hand wall that way you can avoid alot of NPCs.

Fairly challenging for a 34 hunter, even for hunter hard to single-pull, ended up feigning a LOT.

Jailor has multiple spawn locations, including right outside room gol'dir is being held in on second floor of inn, usually he's at the town hall though.

hardest pulls are probly the town hall and the upstairs of inn.

The inn where Gol'dir is held is at cords 61, 43. You have to get to the second floor. And in a house at 62, 44 was the house where the Jailor spawns.
