The Brand Holds the Key

Quest Text
<Darion is unresponsive. The cage is locked, and doesn't appear easily broken. Perhaps the holder of the key is this "Brand" he mentioned.>
Plan the run before you travel
Maldraxxus belongs to the Shadowlands 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.
