Quest Text
I've heard tales that the djaradin forge their blades with magic so hot that they can actually quench the metal with lava. Lava! It's like ice water compared to the heat their magic creates! But I've never been able to verify it for myself. They aren't exactly peddling their wares at the market. You smell like battle, though. Go and fetch some of their weapons for the blacksmiths back in Loamm and we'll see if the legends are true, eh?
Plan the run before you travel
Zaralek Cavern belongs to the The War Within 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.
