Target: Writhing Haunt

Go to the Writhing Haunt in Western Plaguelands to locate and defeat the Cauldron Lord present there, and use its key to gain access to the cauldron. You must have the Empty Writhing Haunt Bottle with you to secure a sample of the poisons used inside the cauldron.
Writhing Haunt Cauldron Key
Empty Writhing Haunt Bottle
Provided Item:
Empty Writhing Haunt Bottle

Description

Two cauldrons have been successfully opened; while you will be able to access them indefinitely, we still want to open up the other two that remain. This will provide all of us with more options to introduce the counter agent!

This time, you'll be hitting the Writhing Haunt's cauldron. It is almost due east of Andorhal, relatively close to the ruined city walls; again, eliminate the cauldron lord present there for its key. Use this bottle to obtain the sample from the cauldron.

Good hunting, <name>!

These quests can be dreaful. The respawn rates on the Cauldron Lords sometimes gets so high that you don't have time to loot the Lord, kill the adds, and complete the quest. Be careful and don't waste time.

Other than that, it isn't hard. As a hunter, it's extremely easy. Go over to 53,66 and kill the Lord, deal with the adds quickly, and then loot the Cauldron.

This one's pretty tough to solo if you are mid-lvl 50ish. The respawns are much quicker than usual. Best bet is to bring at least 1 more, 2 party members in addition to yourself if possible. Take out all the minions around the cauldron and immediate areas. Nearby mobs tend to pull aggro off the ones that get targeted for pulls. Once you take out the boss and his bodyguards, quickly get his key and fill your bottle at the cauldron.

If you end up getting the key and have a hard time getting the bottle filled b/c too many adds, clear out as much as you can first then designate one of your party as the "worm on the hook" and start pulling the boss (if he's respawned) and other mobs from the cauldron. When the cauldron mobs leave, immediately click on the cauldron. You'll have to "complete" and "accept" the next quest so be quick about it... repeat as needed.

Best way to approach the Cauldron is from west. I had to kill 2 skelies and Lord Razarch to finish this quest.

Some of these mobs have a -10% Hitchance disease for 10min which is a pain in the ass for a Warrior since they can't dispell the disease and I couldn't kill the big "boss" with this disease on me so I had to wait for 10min. Then all the mobs had respawned and I had to start over again. This forced me to press ESC -> Quit for tonight...
