Follow the river out to the cliff waterfall, either jump from there into the water or travel south to the path down. The chest is at the base of the waterfall. There is a lvl 48 elite turtle that frequents the area so becareful.

This quest is marked as level 51 but providing you are careful you can do it much much earlier. I did this quest at level 41 and did not die once during this stage of the quest.

The final item is located, as the quest notes say, in a chest on the coast of the hinterlands at the bottom of a big waterfall. This waterfall is at the end of the only river on the map of the hinterlands.

The easiest way to complete this quest is to follow the path until you can see the large pool at the start of the river, just to the north of Agol Watha. At this point jump into the river and follow it to the coast. I did not see anything in the water nor on the shore of the river as i swam down.

Once you reach the waterfall you need to make your way out as far as possible on the rocks at the top of the waterfall and then just jump, you should land at the bottom but behind the level 49 KOS turtles and out of agro range. I was able to open the chest and complete the quest then use my hearthstone to get back out without getting any agro.

Hope that helps.

Those of you worrying about the snapjaws on the shore, they won't attack you unless you attack them.&nbsp They're yellow guys.&nbsp Pay attention to the "enemy" colors.&nbsp

The only things you have to be wary of for this part are 1-Actually getting there (since you have to run through The Hinterlands and there are some beasts that you will aggro along the way.&nbsp I'm 46 and with my mount I can usually get by pretty easily without them knocking me off).&nbsp 2-The one named elite (Gamiteria or something like that) who -will- attack you but moves super-slowly around the coast and is easy to avoid.&nbsp 3-Any players of the opposing faction (I know there's a horde town there on the other side of the coast, and this is a big farming location for leatherworkers in both factions because we need the turtle scales).

81.47 - easy to spot, right beneath the waterfall.

While the description of the fun to be had jumping off the waterfall to get to the chest is quite evocative, be advised that the water below is not of a uniform depth, and if you land in water that isn't deep enough, you will get hit for quite a nice chunk of damage (I was hit for 2199, just a few points over what was needed to kill me )

So, be careful jumping.

I did it on lvl 39 and it took me to lvl 40, still only 6100 exp but on lvl 39 that is much, one and a half square of exp. I took a 60 friend to help me to the water then I swam from there to the waterfall.

In what area is "Overlook" located? It seems this is a little hard to understand for some. So, exactly where is the objective?

All I did was get as far forward on the rocks sticking out from the top of the waterfall and jumped out. Landed safely in deep water below. Don't understand all these quotes about painful fall.

I found it at 81.45.

6100 XP at level 48.

Just went south of there, and at 81.54 found "Pupellyverbos Port" on ground.
This is for the quest: Whiskey Slim's Lost Grog. Found these all the way south to Revantusk Village. Most were at 78.75.

6100 XP at level 51. I kept looking around the wrong waterfall in the Hinterlands.

Is there a way of figuring out how much XP a quest gives if you're above/below the quest level?

I did this as a lvl 35 rogue. The hardest part was waiting long enough for a higher level person to clear the pirates out enough for me to get the quest in the first place. I actually got the scroll when I was lvl 33 and had to wait until 35 before I could open it. I mostly just snuck around stealthed, and only got killed when a raptor moved right when I thought he would move left. (They do have a nasty tendency to notice when they step on you!)

Hmm just did this at lvl 47 .. Like the others says jump (I died :P), and get the chest .. I didn't even see a KOS turtle :) But if you should die, the graveyard is only 10 sec away, lucky enough for me. Thought I was going to run entire Hinterlands :P

This quest is extremely easy, I did it as a L41 with a mount. As long as you can avoid the aggro by outrunning any mobs, you'll find this easy. Around 10k XP for doing nothing more than running.

Easy horde quest.

Flew to Raventusk, followed the shoreline north and jumped into the water at the bottom of the waterfall to grab the chest.

While killing the raptors, I found another Journeyman's Backpack (14 slot), which means, I got 2 14-slot packs for the quest. Quite lucky I say!
