The feathers drop from the frostmane novice. There are only two frostmane novice in the cave all the way in the back and they only drop 1 feather at a time so you will have to wait until it respawns to kill and loot again.

The easiest way to get to them without going through the whole cave is once you enter the cave clear the mobs on the left side of the cave. This should save you some time.

Ugh, this quest made me mad.. They put the mobs SO far down into the cave, and then they put 2 of the 3 mobs you need to kill BESIDE a level 5 named boss which has a big aggro range. I died 3 times doing this quest, it doesnt feel good dying on a level 3 in a starting area when your level 70 is doing karazhan.. :'[

Comment by JaedxRapture

The cave is at about .

Did this quest no problem. Went left from the entrance and killed both Novices (they shoot from a range, so they aren't hard to kill without aggroing others). I waited for the respawn of a third (which was less than 2 minutes) and got the last feather, and left the cave all within 4 minutes. No deaths, no problems.

There is a 3rd Novice. He's in a small cubby behind the room where the lvl 5 named spawns. Approx 29,81

Comment by scronide

I stopped counting after four Novices, so there's plenty in there to get. I hugged the south tunnel mostly at level 4 and it was easy enough, although these troll blokes are the first mobs that aggro.

You should also pick up 'The Troll Cave' quest before you go in: http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=182

Comment by sanjayg

Yeah, there are at least 4 Novices if you know where to look. Hug the right wall as if you actually felt the cold of Dun Morogh.

This quest scales to level. I recently completed it as a level 63 human warlock and received 10400 XP. Easiest XP ever.

I was just doing the ironforge starting quests to get exalted to Ironforge being a Human Warlock level 70, when I noticed i had a warlock quest up, i could pick it up and see the reward would be: Summon Imp, but I have it for a long time, is this a bug ?

Comment by Shamazupah

Don't forget to pick up "The Troll Cave", which can be obtained from Grelin Whitebeard which is a bit north-west of the cave.

You can also loot Felix's Bucket of Bolts, which is needed for the quest "A Refugee's Quandary", obtainable by Felix Whindlebolt at coords 28,68 (Anvilmar). The Bucket of Bolts is just outside of the cave and since the lovely patch it sparkles so its really easy to spot.

Comment by Joddie

Stumbled upon this quest while revisiting every old instance in look for undone quests.

* The quest will show up on your mini-map even at 70,

* Gives 250 Rep as stated and a 7g 59s reward as well.

i still can not find it where is it?

Comment by cooliofresh

theres more then three of them so you can go anyway you want!

Comment by Festyr

There are at least 3 novices; 2 near boss and 1 a little further back.

These will drop for more than 1 warlock at a time. So each novice drops a charm for all the locks in your party/group.

Comment by YvaXorna

Ok there is something very wrong with this quest. It was given as a level 3 solo and the area is full of aggressive level 4. After dying TWICE with a group I have given up and deleted the character. It seems really unfair to put a quest this difficult in order to get a basic skill for the warlock class. Also I should add we had yet to find a single novice at this location.

Comment by Kilsek

Please tell me you are joking.

The drop rate is 100%, the mobs are inside the cave if you enter and take a right turn, head to the back of the cave. If you wait till level 4 (which takes no time at all) you can use immolation and corruption to burn them down. Just clear one mob at a time. Even with two just DoT and melee. Eat/Drink if needed.

The only way I can see someone dying to this quest is someone *very* new to the game. But if you are posting on Wowhead, I find that unlikely.

Comment by hellothere123

This is an unfair quest to gnome warlocks compared to the difficulty of other imp quests as the trolls are closely packed together pulling one may pull about 3 i would not attempt this until level 4 at least or with a group

Comment by Arowico

I am, for some reason, able to do this quest a second time on my 80 warlock. I was just gonna do some low-level quests for rep and then i like: "WHAT THE..."

Comment by hazmat3255

I agree with most others here. This quests is extremely hard for this level. After keilling one I tried for another but pulled a level 4 and the level 5 mob and of course died. After that I rezzed and hand no water. So I had too wait for a respawn, kill him and get the feather, sit down and wait for my mana too regenerate and kill him again then hearth out. Yeah, quite a but harder than the undead version of this quest.

Now ress for this npc is less than 1 minute

Comment by geode4723

The diffuculty of this quest has a solution. Travel to the Ironforge Airport. These trolls POUR out of a cave there. They are also neutral, so they wont attack you unless attacked
