Found at 31,46 right by the big dead sea turtle

Comment by lthor

Found the ship inbetween the port and the island in Darkshore.
it is at 31,44.....and it is better if you can have elixir of water breathing.

Comment by 52013

Exact coords is = 31,45

Comment by ryoohkieevee

The crates are in a wide circle around the ship. Some as far as the turtle's head and under the dock.

Comment by 33463

Judging by the rewards for the followup quest, this is a WARRIOR ONLY quest. If you happen to find the NPC "Shade of Elura" by the ship wreckage off the docks of Darkshore, ignore the trouble of killing her unless you've got this warrior quest.

Got dissapointed with this 3 quest chain I was really hoping for the reputation with Darnassus, none of these quests give any rep anymore for all those warrs that are not nelf that thought it be a easy 2,268 rep bonus .

Comment by 226621

Hey i posted a pic of where this ship is. This quest took me so long to find but i eventually found it. You gotta dive to the bottom of the watter and find these shiny boxes. Then killin the girl was easy to find cuz shes the only thing walking on the bottom ;)

Comment by 331261

Yea it was really easy for me to find, i just jumped of the dock. the sunken ship is right underneth the boat to stormwind ^-^

Comment by 329241

anyone now where the ores or whatever it call are can someone link a map?

Comment by 348480

Lighthouse my wiggly ears! :)

Try the south end of the pier. Where you catch the boat for Stormwind City.

Gotta kill the Shade of Elura in the wreck, before the crates of Elunite Ore appear around and under the pier. I found about half of the crates between the wreck and the pier.

does not reward reputation

Comment by Samelde

I found the shipwreck and ore exactly as described above - was able to collect ore w/out killing the Shade. Also, Elura was well hidden inside the ship's mast that sticks up out of the bottom! I used "/target shade" to locate her.

On a side note, I was run over by the ship to SW. Contrary to my expectation, the bottom of the ship was not solid - I could see up into the ship and see the players on the deck from below!
Also, there is an anvil beneath the dock - whats up with that?

Comment by Thottbot

right off the docks (facing the water, head to the end of them and go left/south), piece of cake.

Comment by Thottbot

When you fly over to Darshore from Teldrassil you see a dead giant sea turtle in the water, the boat is right next to the sea turtle.

Comment by Thottbot

For all you with cosmos(if you dont have it, get it - www.cosmosui.org) the ship is located at 31, 44. Type "/tloc 31,44" to show your current location under mini map, when this is shown, she is easily located.

Comment by Thottbot

Well it was not hard to find the ship but now ive defeated that chick under water twice and i cant find\pickup\open any crates.. ive been looking around the ship for 30min now and the crates, wooden boxes, barrels etc... I cant pick up or do anything with. pls.. tell me ;)

or ill go back to counter-strike..this to hard.. lol

Comment by Thottbot

An annoying quest, only because the implication is that the ore is aboard the ship. Not only are several of the crates pretty far East of the ship, they're scattered all over (2 are almost under the jetty). While you're exploring, at least one sea lizard (or whatever those things are) will try to eat you. They're 12s or 13s and easy but running out of breath is always an issue. There's one crate just behind the ship but the first time I tried to capture it, it wouldn't give me a gear icon. The next time (after wandering around), it did. Odd but not too unusual. Keep looking; you'll find them all.

Comment by Thottbot

go 33,45 and look around you will scout 2 more chestes :)

Comment by Thottbot

k i found 3 at 33,46 and 1 at 33,47

Posted by Mortyh on 2005-10-12 17:35:43 For all you with cosmos(if you dont have it, get it - www.cosmosui.org) the ship is located at 31, 44. Type "/tloc 31,44" to show your current location under mini map, when this is shown, she is easily located.
Thanks for the coors, mate! :) I just went there, pulled the chick with a throw(away from the nessie), killed her EZ, and just swam a little around the area to find the crates... the crates will respawn, so if you find one, you can easily finish it. Dont know what all the fuzz was about.. :S

Comment by Thottbot

This quest is quite annoing...the crates are scattered all over the place and are totally random. fist time i did this quest i finished it fast, but this time it looked like more people were doing it and the crates were hard to find. I ended up doing it for 20min. crates are around the ship, the turtle and under the dock.

Comment by Thottbot

just so you all know that all co-ords work for CT Mod too and they brilliant found it with ease, had a little trouble with Nessie but asides that was easy.

Comment by Thottbot

Hi,

I wasn't too sure about the location of the ship, but after looking on thottbot and the instructions kindly provided by others this quest was really quite straightforward. If you look nearby (swim less than a minutes distance) you'll locate all the crates you need.

But then maybe Blizzard fixed up this quest in an update? Anyway, just persist and it'll be real simple like.

Comment by Thottbot

I've kill her and she drop it at the first time, but for the crate, u need to search a bit for 1 or 2 of those after the others one u need will be appear. Its for that they r hard to find u cant see 8 or more crate.

Have fun ;)

Comment by Thottbot

More then the needed 8 crates are surrounding the ship and very easy to find. When in Auberdine look for the two ships that you use to travel to the other half of the world. Go the the south dock and jump off right there is the shipwreck cant miss it. Shade is in middle of wreck because of the grey water and the fact that she is grey it is sort of hard to see her. Dropped first try.

Comment by Thottbot

The Ship is not anywhere near the lighthouse. As above:

It's South of the southern dock, the ship that goes to Menethil Harbor will be coming and going right over you as you complete this quest.

You will also see a dead sea turtle (used for another local quest) nearby. The Shade of Elura woke up when I went to the middle of the wreck, then I picked up 3 or 4 crates at the wreck. Then, swimming East (toward the beach) found another one, then went under the pier and found a bunch more. Watch out for Threshers if you are under level 13, they can start attacking you while you are swimming at the surface, better to swim just under the surface so you can see them first (Charge!)

Also: careful asking players for help, unless they are a NE warrior, they might (as a rogue did for me) try to lead you to some crash sites much further north.

Hope this helps.

Comment by Thottbot

Like others said the ship is nowhere near the lighthouse. The Lighthouse is on the Northwest of the dock and the sunken ship is due South of the dock.

Most crates spawn East of the sunken ship forming a trail towards the shore.

Obviously there was some sort of break down in communication between the people writing the quest descriptions and the people designing the terrian because the quest description barely fits the actual location of things.

Comment by Thottbot

ok guys the quest is really easy. the ship is right under(and i mean right under) the harbor to menthill the lady is right under there and then the crates are right around it believe me it is not hard to find

Comment by Thottbot

For some reason I'll be going to down to get a crate and I'll have about 3/4 of my breath left. All of a sudden I take about 900 "drowning" damage and die. How can I drown when I have 3/4 of my breath left? This is really frustrating and I think could be a glitch. I've all ready drowned 4 times, and I've never drowned a single time before in this game. Just a little strange I think.

Comment by Thottbot

Let me tell you, it took a hell of a long time for me to find the ship but I did. Ill make it very simple.

Go where you take the boat the Menthil Harbor. Then jum in the water from there and teh boat is literally right there. Just swim down kill Elune and take the crates. Easy as pie from there.^^

Comment by Thottbot

We found crates at the following locales:
(1or2) 31,43
(3) 32,46
(2) 33,45
Didn't keep up with all. None were beyond the docks. Had to kill a thrasher at one point.

Would be HIGHLY helpful to have a Lock with underwater breathing spell to help =)

Comment by Thottbot

Just completed the quest myself...while they don't seem to spawn randomly, they do seem to take their sweet-ass time in spawning, because I know for a FACT that the places where numbers 5-6-7 spawned I had just left there a few minutes ago, and there weren't any crates there before...but who knows...

Comment by Thottbot

No, its not near the beached turtle, theres a turtle in the water with a huge shell u can swim in, and a skull its dirctly down from that and u will see Elura. Make sure not to pull the Threshers though, they will screw ya up, otherwise she is easy to beat. :)

Comment by Thottbot

The ship and Shade of Elura are at 32,45. For those without the cosmos, go down the dock from Auberdine, turn left where the boat to Menethril would be docked and jump in the water.

Shade of Elura ('ghost girl') is wondering around the bottom of the ocean by the ship - around the center of the wreck. She may be hard to see but once you spot her, be sure to click on her so that you can spot her again easily even if you have to come up for the air before you go back in to attack.

Crates of ore you'll find all over the ocean floor around the ship. I found a bunch of them to the East of the ship - 33,46

Comment by Thottbot

As everyone else has said if you go to the end of the pier where you would get the ship to Menethil. Jump off there and swim down.
The ghost is easy to beat but watch out for the creatures down there.
As for the crates they are a pain to find.
Swim around the area, as if heading for the shore, you should find them.

It is worth pointing out that if I hadn't checked on here I wouldn't have had a clue. The description for the quest sucks.

Comment by Thottbot

The Coordinates are around 30,44 It isn't really that
hard to complete that quest.

Comment by Thottbot

the boatwreck is left of the docks just dive and you will find it. the npc named the shade of elura is in lvl 11

Comment by Thottbot

when it says go to the lighthouse i was really confused because i kept searching in the opposite direction of where it is so thank u botthott.

Comment by Thottbot

lol first time i looked i found only 3 boxes and the nextr time there where damn crates all over the place

Comment by Thottbot

I found the ship and killed the shade very fast, but after i looted the medallion, and started searching for the ore, i found that i couldnt find it anywhere. Even when i found a crate, it wouldnt give me the gear sign.

Comment by Thottbot

i finally found them after 30 min of searching. They are concentrated more around (33,46),or just southwest off the dock. Its a very annoying quest, and it will probably take you awhile to finish it.

Comment by Thottbot

There's six boxes I've counted so far.
One by the shade, one a few feet north of the ship, a couple of boxes under the closest harbor (south one). A buried one by the turtle bones, and one floating one, closer to the shore from that, a little eastish and another further towards the shore.

Comment by Thottbot

the boxes r scattered out at the ship and there is one box hidden in the dirt in front of the turtle under the dirt (sometimes i guess lol) it messed me up so badly lol hope it helps :P

Comment by Thottbot

where do u get the ore

Comment by Thottbot

the quest is actually pretty easy if you know where you are going. once you get the quest, go to darkshore and pick up the quest for washed ashore. get the large thresher remains south of auberdine and return. get the second quest for washed ashore. it will say that the turtle is due west of your current location. hop straight down to the beach and out into the water. you should be able to see the turtle once you dive. swim out to the turtle, taking care with the threshers. they are lvl 12-14. once you get near by the turtle, you will see the shipwreck just off to the side. get the turtle remains and head to the shipwreck. the shade will be walking around in the middle of the ship. kill her, then search around for some crates. some of them may be buried in the sand so that only a corner is sticking out. the crates are scattered all over the place. there are even a couple underneath the docks. pick up the 8 you need and head back to shore.

if these directions are not helpful, boy are you hopeless!

Comment by Thottbot

Yes crates are pretty scattered. I found them at these co-ordiantes..
31.44
31.43
31.42
32.43
33.43
33.45
32.46
33.45
Hope thats a bit of help, Just avoid the serpents.

Comment by Thottbot

The coords are correct as above, and I just had my alchemist make an underwater breathing potions, and I got it done. Not a problem.

Comment by Thottbot

i did this qst on 22/12/07 and i found the crates quite easy to see because they 'sparkle'. yes they are fairly scattered but that allows you to avoid nessies while finding them. a good idea is to get a guild mate who's an alchemist to make you an underwater breathing potion. makes finishing the quest much easier.you can make the fight with the ghost easier by dragging her up to the surface and fight her there. good luck

Comment by Thottbot

32:44 civarına bak. batık bir gemi olacak. 11 lvl bir undead kız dolaşıyor olacak. Ondan düşen madalyonu al. Batık geminin etrafında ve birazda iskelenin ayaklarının dibinde Elunite Oreleri göreceksin. Sandık şeklinde. İyi şanslar

STANDARTLARI ISTANBUL BELIRLER

Comment by Thottbot

I can't see the shade O.o it's not in the middle of the ship it's not near any of the crates do you know what the f**k's happend O.o

Comment by Thottbot

oh great i killed her and when i tried to loot it kept saying " You are too far away from that coarpse"...maybe i should have fought farther up and not right on the ground...

Comment by Allakhazam

weird question:what do i need to do to open the crates its says:you cant open these(or something like that:s)

Comment by Allakhazam

Elura is found underwater, smack dab between the two halves of the ship. The crates are also underwater, and it's true they're a bit north northeast of the shipwreck, but a few are in the shipwreck. At level 13, she ambushed me, yet I don't think I went below 75 health, she's easy.

Another easy way to find this place, is to go out to the docks, then when you have a choice of the 3 prongs to go down to, pick the one that is aiming the southermost.

If you jump off that, you'll be basically right over the ship wreck.

I had no issues with the lack threshers.

Comment by Allakhazam

I found most of the crates to the north and east of the ship

Comment by Allakhazam

All of the present posts are correct, except that no one mentioned the crates having to regenerate after another Warrior has recently done the quest. I did this with my friend (another Warrior), and we had to wait around 45 minutes for the crates to respawn, but when they did, there were enough for the both of us, so just keep looking and you'll finish this one up in no time.

On an additional note, Threshers aren't a problem at all, considering there are only 2 to 3 roaming around at all times.

Comment by Allakhazam

The sunken boat is directly off Mist's Edge, the dock where you get the boat to Menethil. I found the crates at (32,44) (32,43) (33,45) (32,46) (33,43)If you swim back round to these points you will find that the crates have re-appeared. I picked up two lots of Elunite Ore from (32,44) (33,43)and (33,45) to give me my 8 pieces.

The shade of Elura is around 31,45.

There are a lot of level 13 and 14 sea creatures around here but i managed to avoid them the whole time through the quest and didnt get attacked once. I solo'd this as a level 11 warrior and found it an easy going quest that didn't take very long at all.

Comment by Allakhazam

Could someone give me a solid clue as to how the heck you can swim. I just keep bobbing on the water here and can't dive under to go after the crates or the shade.

Comment by Allakhazam

I had no problem defeating Shade at level 10, but the crates seem to be hard to find. The coordinates are correct for the ship but the crates can be better found under the dock next to the sunken ship. I also had no problem with any of the other creatures in the water.

Comment by Allakhazam

This can be located straight off the dock where the boat stops to take adventurers to Menethil Harbor in Auberdine. Underwater crates filled with Elunite surround a sunken ship and Elura's spirit is near the ship itself.

Comment by Allakhazam

I didn't get around to doing this quest until level 14, and I soloed it with no problems. I had heard about a lot of level 14 Darkshore threshers,but this was not true. Go to the crossways at the docks in Darkshore and turn left. Jump off at end of dock and go straight underwater. You will see the crates all over the bottom of the ocean. I was attacked only 3 times-two by threshers while opening the box, and another by the Shade of Eluna ghost. Each was a level 11-12. I would open a box, swim to top for air, go back down, open another crate, etc. Took less than 10 minutes and only had to kill those 3 creatures. Very easy, even for level 10.

Comment by Allakhazam

I hate this quest, I followed every tip posted here and only found 3 crates, the respawn rate is just stupid. Been swiming around for an hour

Comment by Allakhazam

where can i download a program so i can see the cordinats in the game and how do i use it

Comment by Allakhazam

according to quest log,you have to kill her first and get medallion to get the ore.that might be why they dont open.just killed her on second try.thresher butted in first time and ate my ass.going after crates now.

Comment by Allakhazam

Dam, didn't notice that, warrior only.. Sad cause i had all the Ore.. well... Lets continu!

Comment by Allakhazam

i just did this quest and is easy i dint guet attack by anythuing exept the mob that the quest sais to kill for the items im lvl 12 and the mob was lvl 11

Comment by Allakhazam

Quest details have been updated. Please let us know if this is incorrect.

Comment by Allakhazam

She is on a small island very close to the docks, to the south, she is lvl 11

Comment by Allakhazam

31,44

Comment by Allakhazam

whats repop time on boxes?

Comment by Allakhazam

Where the quest says it's near the lighthouse, which is on the north side of the docks, the sunken ship is actually on the south side.
If you're on the docks facing Auberdine, jump off the right side.
Wooden crates are somewhat easy to spot on the sea floor but are better found north of the ship than south of it.
I found Elura walking around the middle of the sunken ship.

Links
