The quest items drop from Reliquary Excavators next to and south of Bloodwatcher Point, not inside the tomb.

Comment by KainDarkfire

Apparently when a Trogg holds a rock as a tool, it's amazing and rare.

Wonder what happens if they ever learn how to use the rock besides hitting things with it.

In order to get this quest you first have to do the chain quest "A Hero's Call: Badlands". Hero's Call: Badlands! (or Horde equivalent "Warchief's Command: Badlands!") Which will lead you to Rhea, and the chain quest "First Sample: Wild Eggs" also "Second Sample: Wild Whelps. http://www.wowhead.com/quest=27765. This Chain will then lead you to Dr. Hieronymus Blam and the chain quest "Dustwind Dig" Dustwind Dig

Multiple quest items can drop from a single mob, the first mob I killed dropped 3 of the 4 required items.

What's this? I've never seen trogg craftsmanship of this caliber! You've stumbled upon something rare indeed, Nozzivix.

I did this with Naucratis Level 53, Shaman-Elemental. The southeast of the tomb, took only 3 attacks and got all of the quest needs! Level up!

This quest can be confusing. The first step is to kill the dudes ABOVE the tomb. Once you've turned in that quest, the rest of the quests are in the tomb.

Comment by Boxofbeer

You have to loot four items that drop from Reliquary Excavator mobs.
Broken Chalice -Gemstones appear to have been pried from its settings.
Dusty Vase - Cracked, chipped, and old.
Earthen Hieroglyph - An ancient word in a forgotten tongue, carved into rock.
Trogg Tool - It's a rock.

All four items may drop from the same mob. There may 3 or 2 drop at the same mob.

I gave up after being unable to find any mobs to kill and went to Felwood.

Comment by FrivolousFriv

There aren't enough mobs to kill, being unlucky is punishment in this quest. Stupid quest.

Links

All's Fair in Love, War, and Archaeology

Obtain a Broken Chalice, a Dusty Vase, an Earthen Hieroglyph, and a Trogg Tool.

	Broken Chalice (1)
	Dusty Vase (1)
	Earthen Hieroglyph (1)
	Trogg Tool (1)

Description

First things first, though. I'm not just going to sit here and tell you everything we've discovered down in those ruins. We've got problems to take care of!

Most pressing is those upstart Reliquary hooligans, just on the other side of the tomb. They're makin' off with all of our loot! Don't they know that diggin's dwarf work?

Hunt down a few of their "excavators" - more like bandits, if you ask me - and bring some of these precious artifacts back to me.

THEN we'll talk titans.
