If you are Aldor, you will start with 2nd part of this chain https://www.wowhead.com/wotlk/quest=10265

Although Wowhead says this quest is for horde, its for both factions. This guy gives the scryer quest.

I cannot get any quests for the key to arcatraz. I'm alliance, friendly with the scryers and honored with the consortium. I'd done a bunch of questing in Netherstorm/Area 52 for loremaster and have access to "another heap of ethereals". Frustrated here.

Comment by Allakhazam

is there a pre-req for this quest? he wont give it to me.

Comment by Allakhazam

from the quest text: "As a representative of the Scryers,..."

Comment by Allakhazam

To speak with someone, one must first right click on said person. Now don't ask me why you can't just left click, I'm just telling you what I know. To some this might sound like a bit of crazy talk, I must assure you its true. Now don't try to carry this over to real life, as it does not translate as well. and anyway, what would amputees do?

Comment by Allakhazam

If you are not Scryers, then just pick up at the next quest in the chain.

Okay so a lot of people are confused on this one, and I was too at first, but I figured it out in the end.

When you arrive at Area 52 via whichever breadcrumb you decided on - which should have been Off to Area 52 if you read my comment on all the breadcrumbs available - you'll likely see that the quest Consortium Crystal Collection is already available. Casuals will just take the quest along with the rest and be on their merry way. Those of us who want are anal and need to do ALL the quests will do research, see that there's a breadcrumb, and promptly ignore it until said breadcrumb becomes available.

But what is that pre-requisite? Well for me it was You're Hired! although I had also handed in Mana Forge B'naar previously. Since these are the only quest I had turned in, it may be that both are required from this zone.

It's possible that other consortium quests in Nagrand play a part of the prerequisite line also, since I completed those previously. These quests start with The Consortium Needs You! and includes Matters of Security, Gavaxi, Stealing from Thieves, Obsidian Warbeads, and A Head full of Ivory - the last three of which have repeatable versions.

Finally, given that my Consortium rep was at Friendly, this may also be a requirement. Good luck

Assisting the Consortium

Speak with Nether-Stalker Khay'ji at Area 52 in the Netherstorm.

Description

The naaru of Shattrath City have been trying to find a means to bring the Consortium over to their way of seeing things.

Luck would have it that the business relationship between the ethereals and the blood elves of the Netherstorm has recently soured.

There's a Consortium representative in town named Nether-Stalker Khay'ji who recently ran into trouble with a pack of renegade ethereals. As a representative of the Scryers, I would like for you to help him in any way that you can.
