Troublesome Distractions
A verified Blizzard quest record from Netherstorm. Use the archive brief, rewards, and linked research to finish it without losing your place.
What To Do
Complete the quest objective shown in your tracker in Netherstorm, then return to the turn-in NPC.
Quest Text
Your former employer, Wind Trader Marid, must've gotten wind that you're helping us now. Through my projection, I've seen his nether-stalkers entering the area, hoping to track us down. We've been able to evade them so far, but Marid must be dealt with before the problem grows more severe. If your impressions of Marid are correct, he'll do just about anything to secure the supply of his product. Return to him and tell him you're prepared to offer a deal. Lure him away and slay him.
Plan the run before you travel
Netherstorm belongs to the The Burning Crusade archive. Start with its campaign track if this record is unavailable or the next step is missing.
Open the Wowhead page for coordinates, NPC spawn comments, cave entrances, and player-submitted route notes. WoW-God links out instead of copying community comments.
No group size is listed by Blizzard, so this is usually soloable unless the objective text says otherwise.
Pin the quest in-game, enable objective outlines, then use the exact-title references in the archive for NPC or object coordinates. Add a correction below if the live game differs from this record.
