The Demon Seed

Grab a Flawed Power Stone. Bring it to the Altar of Fire before the stone expires, then return to Ak'Zeloth.
  •  
 Destroy the Demon Seed

Description

The Demon Seed is a powerful tool for the Burning Legion. It rests in a cave on Dreadmist Peak, above a demonic altar of fire.

I have prepared power stones that when placed near the Seed will disrupt its connection to the Legion.

Take a stone from the table and bring it to the altar of fire atop Dreadmist Peak. Travel west, then north when the road forks. The Peak will be to your left. The safest climb to the top is on its northern face.

And hurry--the stone's power will consume itself in time.

IGNORE ALL USELESS POSTS ABOVE, and follow this!

I don't know why the instructions say to go to the north of the mountain.&nbsp I went to 47,24, and went up from there.&nbsp There is a very small centaur camp at that spot, but easy to walk around.

Once you get up there, keep to the west side.&nbsp The cave is not quite at the highest peak.

The place to use the stone is just a few feet inside the cave.&nbsp It will be obvious, because there is a big glowing crystal in the air there.&nbsp Roth is guarding it, so it will be obvious for that reason too.

P.S. the power stone is on the table beside the quest giver.

I see so many locations on all these posts, so let me clarify which is the CORRECT WAY TO DO THIS QUEST.

I picked up the stone from the table near the quest guy, i then followed his directions and i CLIMBED the mountain at 51, 21, once there DONT head to the HIGHEST peak as there is no alter here, head to 47, 19 which is close to the highest peak, there you will find a cave, inside the cave is 2 level 11-12 burning blades, and a level 15 fighter with an axe, i managed to lure these out one at a time, inside this cave is the alter.

I did this quest solo as a level 12 orc fighter.

Edit: There was no Elite mobs that i saw

To get the Flawed Power Stone, head to 62x,20y. Its a clickable item on the table next to Ak'Zeloth at the Far Watch Post in The Barrens.

Once you have your stone, (remember the stone will destroy itself in 30 minutes so be quick) Head to Dreadmist Peak which is roughly at 49x,15y. Climb the side of the mountain to the top. The sky will change to a fiery orange and you need to look for a cave guarded by a bunch of mobs. They can all be single pulled if you are careful. The entrance to the cave is exactly at 47x,19y. Once inside place the Stone on the Altar of Fire and whammo~ the quest is done!

Quest: "The Demon Seed"

This is considered a Durotar quest but the entire quest takes place in The Barrens. (All coordinates are given on The Barrens map).

- 62:20 - Ak'Zeloth (starts the quest)

- 62:20 - Flawed Power Stones (examine it) and click "Complete Quest" although you're not really completing anything.
(Note: You have 30 minutes to find the altar once you pick up the stone).

- Do as the quest log says and head towards Deadmist Peak.

- Get up the mountain however you want, I'm not going to debate the "best" way to get up it.

- 47:19 - This is the cave entrance, you will need to clear 5-10 mobs level 11-12.

- 47:19 - The Altar of Fire (examine it)

- 62:20 - Ak'Zeloth (turn in the quest)

Fairly simple, follow the quest directions up the path and hang a right, heading North. The very first mountain you see to your right is what you want. Go to the North side of the mountain and then up the ridge. You'll see lots of Burning Blade cronies there that range from level 10-11 in two camps up top. The uppermost camp is where the level 25 undead guy is at. You want the camp below him on the northern face. There's a cave inside that you fight your way to and then spring it open if you brought the Flawed Power Stone with you. I soloed this as a level 14 mage. So, it's a breeze.

I've climbed Dreadmist Peak multiple times for the Druid quest at the top and the Southeast route really is the better way. It avoids additional mobs that would be encountered on the North route. Climbing the southeast route will put you very close to the cave entrance as well.

I just did the quest, pretty easy. Level 13 Warrior, able to pull the Acolytes and Bruisers without worry. I had Shield Bash at the time, so I could stop them from casting any bad spells on me.

Don't worry too much about the time limit, just get to the camp and take down the guards one by one so you can get to the Demon Seed.

The way up starts at 47,24 right beside the centaur camp, once you get to the peak, the cave entrance should show up on your minimap. lvl 12-14 mobs, and a lvl 15 named mob, rath, that drops a nice cloak.

Did this last night, the Flawed power Stone will decay after 30 minutes. If you know where the cave is on Dreadmist Peak, its easily doable in less than 10 minutes.

That mage is part of an alliance quest starting in Ashenvale (involving water elementals, of course). He was neutral to me as a troll priest, but I wasn't about to see if I could aggro him, being more than 2x my level.

Did this yesterday and was particularly looking forward to the cloak. Just a bunch of grunts, pretty easy. Hung around before I completed just to make sure someone else hadn't killed elite just before me and still no specials. Oh Well.

For those without coordinates: if you run straight west from teh quest giver, past Grom'dol Farm, you would bump into Dreadmist Mountain.
When you reach Gold Road, turn north, past a tree with a very wide trunk, then veer west again hugging the base of the mountain.
Since you are on a timer, you don't want to waste time fighting, so avoid the group of lions over that first ridge, and the Burning Blade post over the second ridge.
The path up the mountain is right after that post.
As you go up, it is easy to avoid the Burning Blade mobs.There is a cave near a tent, not obvious at first: this is where you use the stone. No mobs popped when I did it, but apparently it could.
