Anyone know what the pre-req is for this? I did all the quests i've seen and still it hasn't opened up

Comment by 4705

I've completed every Nagrand quest available to me except for Durn the Hungerer, including the escort - but this quest isn't available to me. Garrosh doesn't have a grey ! over his head, either, so I doubt it's because of my level. I'm a level 67 warlock and at Revered with Mag'har.

Comment by Fugazi

You need to complete all quests in nagrand, that include demon hunter chain.

Comment by 12816

OK, so i finally got this.

there are 3 confirmed quest lines you must finish before getting this Thrall questline to unlock

1) blademaster chain http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=10107

2) altruis the demon hunter chain http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=9983

3) the murkblood quests (murkblood invaders http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=9872 as well as the escort quest out of sunspring village)

thanks to gurgthock from elitistjerks forums.

Comment by ShihanLock

Confirmed Prereqs:

The Blademaster Chain: http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=10044
Altruis the Demon Hunter: http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=9983
Totem of Kar'dash (escort): http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=9868

Note on the escort quest the horde npc will aggro the alliance npc if they see each other, so go ahead and take them out first.

Comment by 11253

You do not have to complete the nesingwary expedition quests to obtain this.

Comment by 29219

Ok....so I did all the quests in Nagrand including the chains that were mentioned.....and I still cannot pick up the quest

Comment by gothicjoe

Yeah I've done nearly every quest in nagrand and i cant get the quest either.

Comment by 34170

Did all the prerequisites listed. I'm 67, and still can't get the quest...anything else?

Comment by Sgtown

i guess you're either lying or you're stupid if you can't get this quest and you've done what people say.

I did all the nagrand quests, am only honored with maghar, and i got this chain easily.

Afaik, there's a chain that involves Altruis from Shadowmoon valley. It's the thing with the demon hunter near black temple. I've done that one, didn't notice this quest when I was in nagrad so that might be a prereq. Doubtful though.

Comment by 35558

I've done every single one of these quests, and still cannot get the quest from Greatmother

Comment by Ambushed

Is it possible that player race is a factor in the quest? Seems like it would be. If you've completed the quest, please tell your race

Comment by Ambushed

I just got the quest by completing the quest chains listed in post #2. Orc Shaman, level 67 Honored with Mag'Har

Comment by 37220

For all of you who claim you have completed all the pre-reqs and are not able to get this questline to open be _sure_ to complete the Blademaster chain. If you open the link in post 2 (http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=10107) and do just that quest it is not enough. You also have to complete these quests from the blademaster:

Armaments of Deception: http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=9928

Returning the Favor: http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=9931

Message to Garadar: http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=9934

I also was a bit puzzled before I noticed I had done everything else but these 3 quests.

Comment by 28558

Confirmed for escort quest, lacked only that one, did it and got this quest

Comment by 6533

Ok, I have done every single quest in Nagrand. The escort Q i did at 64/65, I did the Blade Q chain at the end of 66. and I have just finished the Altruis the Demon Hunters tiresome quest chain (Pain in the but, runnning around bloody Outland *grunble grunble*) but I did it anyway; knowing that I would get this quest chain when I was done. Nothing.....I can't get this Q...I can't talk to Garrosh or the Greatmother. so annoyed...any suggestions would be greatly appreciated :P

Comment by 45175

I think you need Cho'war too, I dont know though, I've done all the prereqs and still cant get it

Comment by Sloper

Did you also spoke to Garrosh? Cause you have to talk to him first.

He'll tell you to go see the Great Grandmother.. then listen to her story and your on your way

Comment by 31446

You get a total of 6760 Mag'har rep from completing all the qeusts in this chain, as well as 1200 Sha'tar rep.

Comment by 55496

Omg i cant speak with Garrosh;
i have done all quests (blademaster, demonhunter, pillager,captive) and i cant speak with garrosh T.T

Comment by 58003

The required chains you MUST complete before doing this are:

The Blademaster Chain:
http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=9888
This starts in Nagrand, brings you to Terrokar forest and then back to Nagrand. When you complete this chain with "Diplomatic Measures" the Burning Blade Chain will be unlocked.

Burning Blade Chain (Lantresor of the Blade):
Starts with:
http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=9928
http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=9927
Once you complete these 2 quests at Kil'Sorrow fortress, you do another 2 up at the Laughing Skull ruins. The last quest in this chain is "Message to Garadar"

Altruis the Demon Hunter chain:
http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=9983
You will need a group for most parts of this quest. There are parts that are easily soloable. Last quest in this chain to complete is Forge Camp: Annihilated

Murkblood Invaders:
http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=9872
Get a note from Murkblood Invader who ride arround Nagrand to start the quest. If you're under 70 you might want a partner.

Totem of Kar'dash (Escort):
http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=9868
Easily soloable.

Comment by decaydence

This quest chain becomes super super easy after hitting 70 & getting a flying mount. I would've killed myself if I had to use a non-flying mount for the 5th part.

Comment by Glocksucker

Can someone tell me what im doing wrong is? I've done absolutely every quest in Nagrand. I've checked, and checked, and double checked this, and i still cant get this quest. Is it bugged or something?

Comment by 54798

I have done every single quest in Nagrand as well including Ring of Blood and he still wont start the questline for me. /sigh

Comment by 7577

I thought that I had done the escort quest. I flew over the guy, saw the green NPC down below, and he didn't have a quest ! above his head. So I assumed I had done it.

But I was wrong.

Turns out you have to kill all of the mobs near him, and THEN he will give you the escort quest. So if you've flown over and found the guy, and thought you'd already done it, try killing all of the mobs around him and see if he offers you the escort quest.

BTW, it was reasonably easy to do as a solo 70 BM Hunter. He heals himself, and my pet could tank most of the mobs. Cakewalk.

Edit: Fix spelling of a few words

Comment by 92932

The pre-requisite quests alone got me about a level worth of XP. You can do the Murkblood and Blademaster/Burning Blade quests at level 65, but the Forge Camp quests are 66, so if you are trying to maximize your efficiency you need to get started at 65 on those pre-requisites.

Thank you to all the posters on this thread! You were a big help!

Comment by 113030

Final tally of experience points and reputation gain for the entire chain as of 1/19/2008 is as follows:

130650 XP
6060 rep with Mag'har
850 rep with Sha'tar

Comment by krigath

you do not need to do Wanted: Durn the Hungerer or Vision of the Dead to get this quest.

Comment by 156136

I have been trying to start this quest for days now...
I've finished all the prequests from what i can see, i thought maybe that I hadn't done the escort but the quest isn't coming up when i kill the guards so i guess I've done it.
Has anyone else had this problem or is there something else I'm missing..?

Comment by Cydrone

Altruis quests are not needed to get the chain.
I did the blademaster chain, Murkblood Invaders, and the escort, before I was able to get this quest.

Comment by 110824

So i did all that you said to do which is:

And i can't get the quest and i did everything there and im level 67....

Comment by Zillion2010

Does anyone know what the problem is?

I've completed every quest (and double checked that i have) in nagrand except this 1 and "I'm Saved!" from the nesingwary quests and I still can't get this quest, any help?

BTW im a 70 orc warlock

2. A Strange Weapon
3. The Warchief's Mandate
4. A Spirit Guide
5. The Mag'har
6. Messenger to Thrall
7. Envoy to the Mag'har

Also given at this point are the following, but may not be necessary to complete the Hero chain. They are very nice rep rewards for each so you may want to do them since you’re there anyway.

The next part leads you to Jorin Dead Eye in Garadar, Nagrand.

1. The Impotent Leader
2. Don't Kill the Fat One

1a. Armaments for Deception
1b. Ruthless Cunning
2a. Returning the Favor
2b. Body Of Evidence
3. Message to Garadar

You will also need to complete The following Unrelated Quests.
1. The Totem of Kar’dash

which is a simple escort quest beginning with the Mag'har Captive in one of the buildings of Sunspring Post.

The second part involves Altruis the Sufferer who is right by the Mag’har captive so these are good quests to do together.

1. Survey the Land
2. Buying Time
3. The Master Planner
4. Patience and Understanding
5. Crackin' Some Skulls
6. It's Just That Easy?
7. Forge Camp: Annihilated

This unlocks the final sequence which returns you to Garrosh . He sends you finally to visit Greatmother Geyah .

2. Material Components
3. To Meet Mother Kashur
4. The Agitated Ancestors
5. A Visit With The Ancestors

14. Hero of the Mag'har

Congrats on you Uber new Gear and Exalted Rep.

Small disclaimer. This is a compilation from a lot of peoples work using information from Allakazam, Wowhead , WoWWiki , and the Armory . This took many hours to complete since the info was so scattered so please rate me up if possible.

Comment by Nautical

I can't get this quest! I double checked everything, but I can still not get this quest. Please help >_<

Comment by entropicdragon

A Chat with the Greatmother (spoiler alert!)

Hello, young <race>.

Hello, Greatmother. Garrosh told me that you wanted to speak with me.

Hello, dear. I am Geyah, matron of the Mag'har.

<Greatmother Geyah coughs.>

If you are here, it would be safe to assume that the portal has opened. Most of the orcs here were too young or too sick to remember the Dark Portal.

<Greatmother Geyah points to the orcs around her.>

Many of them were orphans or would soon become orphans. Aye, Blackhand would have it no other way. Keep the sick from the healthy. Only the strong would survive... Or so they say.

You raised all of the orcs here, Greatmother?

They have grown up here. We kept them safe from harm. We did the best that we could in nursing them back to health. Many perished but many, many more grew strong. Like Garrosh...

<Greatmother Geyah sighs.>

He has lost his heart, you know. He tells me that I am his balance. That without me, the blood lust that consumed his father and ultimately cursed our people would take him over.

Do you believe that?

<Greatmother Geyah laughs weakly.>

Of course not, dear. But it's not me that has to believe...

Garrosh can lead the Mag'har. He is strong and wise. All of the spirits approve of him. He just needs to believe in himself. He fears so much... He fears so deeply that if he lets himself go, his rage will consume him and all that would be near him.

What can be done? I have tried many different things. I have done my best to help the people of Nagrand. Each time I have approached Garrosh, he has dismissed me.

I wish I knew, dear. He will not listen to you nor will he listen to me. In truth, it is why I am still here. It is why I have not left with Mother Kashur. He must find his heart. Our people will not survive through the winter without leadership.

Left? How can you choose to leave?

<Greatmother Geyah smiles.>

I am old. It is my time. When I pass, my spirit will move on to the spirit realm. It is there that I will stand with my ancestors. It is there that we will watch over our people.

When Garad was alive Mother Kashur's duty was the same as my duty now.

What is this duty?

The duty of a clan mother is to listen. To listen to the wind and the water and the fire and the earth. To gather information for her clan in the way others gather furs to stay warm. It is the spirits that I commune with... In my dreams, Mother Kashur speaks to me like the spirits that spoke to her once... When I pass, I will speak to Drakia and Celestine in this manner.

<Greatmother Geyah smiles.>

Is there anything I can do for you, Greatmother?

Comment by 373844

ty all all those post help me a lot i was stuck at 85 did the murkblood......86 and now 3 days to figure that the NPC GEZHE as the membership benefit quest he had a bleu interogation on his head and finaly double check and there was my last quest .

Comment by 616168

ive done the chains required for this quest (ithink) and still cannot get the quest. I need this chain to finish off nagrand for the loremaster achieve but cannot get it. any ideas?

Comment by 739160

I've completed every single quest there probably is to complete in Garadar...and I -still- haven't unlocked the Greatmother quest chain. Is there something I need to do in Hellfire Peninsula or somewhere before I can unlock it? I'm at revered reputation wise, but I'd rather not start farming ogres just yet to get to exalted. What else do I need to do?

Comment by 770184

I was stuck n flew around for an hour almost I hadn't done the mag'har captive quest and flew by n he didn't have a quest but if u kill the guys around him he will have a quest for u

Comment by 473877

I didnt get this quest until I was almost done with the Zone. I think the quest chain where you destroy the demon camp in the west is a prerequisite to this one because this quest didnt show up until I finished the demons.

Comment by Skryptonicus

Ty i never would have found Kilrath again if it weren't for you

Comment by 855019

Well guys, I was stuck at 78/85 and i had already completed the Totem of Kar'dash quest and the Greatmother Quest still would not open. After reading a little bit I found out that the Crackin Skulls quest in Shatt opened up the rest of the artrius line. Totally missed it cause it was in Shatt. Came back and Great mother quests are good to go. Hope it helps.

Comment by Orgtar

As of 5.0.3/.4/.5/ I was getting 330, 550, 750 and 1050 per quest. Seams about an hour to get exalted if your quick enough.

Comment by 1130366

someone help me? I'm doing the loremaster achievement and Garrosh don't want to send me to see the greatmother.. :/ I've done all the quests in the questchain, so I really don't know what to do..! :/

Comment by 706233

Ok so i started doin these quests for the loremaster achieve and im now stuck. I completed the materials quest n now should b on meet kashur yet i have no ! Quests showing up i have been all over nagrand. Does anyone have any advice that may help me find this quest?

Comment by Redead

Confirming that the Altrius quest line definitely has to be completed before this quest becomes available despite being completely irrelevant.

Pretty much every quest in Nagrand is needed except for the consortium and nesingwary chains.

Comment by Aeidann

I was able to get this quest chain by only doing, all today in less than an hour, 3 main quest chains as prerequisite: the Totem of Kar’dash, Altruish the Sufferer, & Jorin Dead Eye's quest chains.

Comment by WoWGnGP

i made i playthrough of this quest if anyone wish to see how to do it :)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JAi-r68vd9g&feature=youtu.be

Comment by mspaintlock

In case anyone in the future has an issue getting this quest, here's my contribution.

I did all the Lantressor of the Blade quests, the Altruis the Sufferer quests, and the Sunspring Post quests including The Totem of Kardash. FYI, there are two quests where you go into Terrokar Forest -- with The Impotent Leader in the middle of the Lantressor chain and Patience and Understanding in the middle of the Altruis chain. After doing those three quest chains, I was able to pick up the quest.

Hope this helps!

Comment by HushGlowie

So, I've been questing on a max level character which made doing Murkblood Invaders impossible. I killed the group of them maybe 10 times (both with and without party sync) and was not able to pick up the item that starts the quest. However, that quest line is still accessible and once you complete it and turn in The Totem of Kar'dash to Garrosh, this quest will appear. I did do the Lantresor of the Blade chapter (that ends with Message to Garadar) and Altruis's quest line (that ends with Forge Camp: Annihilated) prior to this and it sounds like you must also have them complete to see this quest.

Comment by CombatWombatt23

You must complete Forge Camp: Annihilated before this is available
