Quest

The Explorers' League Outpost

Howling FjordAllianceLevel 10 - 30

What To Do

Complete the quest objective shown in your tracker in Howling Fjord, then return to the turn-in NPC.

Quest Text

It's all a bunch of cryptic nonsense! Even with this cipher I can't make heads or tails of these tablets. Admittedly, cryptography is not my strong point. You'll need to take the cipher and tablets to our cryptographer, Stanwad. Unfortunately, I haven't heard from Stanwad in two weeks. He took a team of twenty scientists to the dig sites on the southeastern bluffs of the fjord and hasn't been heard from since. The best I can do is have McGoyver over there give you a lift with his flying machine.

Completion Help

Start here

Check the quest area, faction, and level range before you travel. If this quest is part of a chain, finish nearby campaign quests in the same zone first.

Stuck?

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.

Group size

No group size is listed by Blizzard, so this is usually soloable unless the objective text says otherwise.

Tracking

Pin the quest in-game, enable objective outlines, and search the exact quest title if you need NPC or object coordinates.
