Location: Kalimdor, Tanaris, entrance cove is 68,41. the cape on the east
you will find Metzen in the middle of the village, in a stable.
There are 4 mobs infront and several around.
Mobs is about lvl 44-45.
If you are not much higher or even lvl 60, bring friends for help,cause they all attack at the same time.

The target is also located near 70, 34 in Seraing Gorge. This is the road intersection to the SW of the tunnel entrance.

He is surrounded by multiple 45-47 mobs which will come at you in a group of about 5 or 6.

Easily soloed with a 60 Mage (of course), but with a little help you should be able to do it as low as 45.

64,34 Searing Gorge is Correct. You'll see a camp of 6 or 7 Dark Iron Kidnapppers, a tent, and the reindeer. You've gotta kill off maybe 4 lvl 45 mobs at once for this quest.

Ok Just finished quest with lvl 42 (tauren) hunter.
Did it solo all the way - just me an my pet.
Basic run through for horde.
Go to Orgrimmar.
Get quest from the goblin dude.
Take the zepplin to undercity.
Fly to Kargath (If possible) if not, take flight path to the nearest other and run there.
At kargath, follow the path south of the Inn till a narrow path leads up through the mountains to the west.
Take the path, then when you reach a fork in the road take a right (north).
Not far up is the camp where blitzen is.

From there either kill em all in a party,
Aggro them with a pet or freind and then run in to do the objective(Recommended),
Or run in and do it real quik.

Happy holidays!

K first of all the Reindeer is in the Searing Gorge at cords (64.34)for those who don't know how to get to Searing Gorge there are two ways, read at the bottom section "How to get to Searing Gorge".

Quest Details

The Reindeer is at cords (64.34)in the Searing Gorge he's surrounded by four lv 45 Dark Iron Kidnappers. Those four are stringed together so if you attack any of them they well all attack. They also have the ability to net (paralyze) so unless you have AOE attacks, are at least lv 48 and have ranged attacks, or can blink out of or free yourself from a net, then you'll need to group this quest.

How to get to Searing Gorge 2 Methods

1.) Go to Badlands which starts at south of Loch Modan at cords(47.76), once in the Badlands go to cord (4.62) there is a valley that leads to Searing Gorge(its directly below Kargath).

2.)Part A:
Kill Margol the Rager (He's in the Searing Gorge so you'll have to get in from the above method, he's a lv 48 elite, soloed as a 47 mage no biggie, his cords (72.80) its in a valley in the moutains, valley starts at cords (65.77)

2.)Part B:
After you've killed Margol the Rager make sure you get Margol's Gigantic Horn, right click the horn to open a quest. Go to Moutineer Pebblebitty at the Valley of Kings below Loch Modan at cords (18.84) after completing her quests you get a key to the Searing Gorge I highly reccomend doing this saves lots of time for future quests in the Searing Gorge.

Keep in mind that, while the Fresh Holly you receive from the Revelers is soulbound, this quest reward is not soulbound. Preserved Holly may be given to other players (or auctioned in the Auction House).

I find him at 71,48 in Tanaris

He is both at 67,34 in Searing Gorge, and at 73,47 in Tanaris. both "guards" are around lvl 45.

the unknown reward is 5 pieces of a treat that makes your mount look like a reindeer (use the item when mounted).

the reward is limited to five though, and dispells when unmounted. however, they can probably be used when you want (even after winter is over).

you can get more of this kind by /kiss to someone below a mistel (do it on another player and they'll get a nice spirit buff) and you will recieve a gift. this random gift can also have 5 of what this quest reward is, but then it has a "most be usable within 7 days" limit. so save your quest reward! :)

ok.. so i saw a couple of level 40's in my server riding this reindeer mount. little did i know how hard this quest is for a lvl 40. lost rigger cove is occupied with lvl 48 mobs. do this quest only if you have lvl 45+ friends helping you. i had to learn the hard way. and the walk from the graveyard to metzen the reinderr is pretty far.

Can be found either in Searing Gorge and Tanaris

Happy Holidays�

I have the dust and talk to the reindeer in Tanaris, it shows he is freed but my log doesn't update. I go back to Ogr to talk to quest giver and nothing. What the balls?
