To complete this quest you just have to run up to the altar. The hard part is there are level 50 elite trolls on that altar. Use whatever speed increase, or evasion tatic you have and rush up to the altar and hop down and run off. If you can't stealth you will probably die trying to run away afterward but at least you will have the quest completed.

Kommentar von mrfaith

I did this and survived np as a 46 shadow priest, just shielded in shadow, run up, jumped off to the left, and the pretty much deagro once you hit the ground. i had to throw a second shield on, but it's doable.

edit: i had 2002hp when i did it

this quest was really easy with my lvl 47 rogue. just stealth up there, and use distract on the troll on either side of the alter, walk up on the later, and walk away.

Kommentar von 39058

Just FYI if you can stealth around to the left or right side of the altar and go behind it, it will complete your quest, and it can be done with no aggro (in stealth) no cogs to use, just walk to it.

There's a chest behind the alter if you can get to it, but I'm not going to try that chest until higher level!

lvl 46 druid

This quest was actually pretty simple.. I completed it as a 44 rogue. Just stay to the side and then you can go behind everything and then to the middle until it says you've comepleted your quest and then you can jump down from either side. it's a pretty simple quest for rogues.. not sure about anything else..

Kommentar von Bargle

I managed to easily complete it as a 44 shaman by just running up through the middle. If you go straight over the top after the stairway, you can jump over the back of the altar and go under the ledge and the mobs will reset.

Kommentar von Vandlo

I just did this as a level 47 Hunter. Learned the hard way, don't run in with Aspect of the Pack/Cheetah. I somehow managed to live, and was as simple as Bargle's explanation of running up and over the other side to complete the quest.

Kommentar von romeo1224

i solod this pretty easy as a lvl 44 hunter just make sure to clear out the guys on the stairs and then when u reach the top send your pet after the guy on the very back left and then immidatly the guy on the right run through all of them and run back down the stairs simple as pie

Kommentar von raymix

just bubble yourself as pally. Did it without loosing any HP

Kommentar von MasterM

Did it as a lvl 46 Warrior.
Ran up there, inspected the altar and ran off with 52 HP left.
Unfortunatly, some wolf decided to join the fun.

Long dead walk indeed.

Kommentar von Fallerup

as a lvl 47 rogue I did this with ease, I stealthed up, went to the back side of the altar, sapped the lvl 47 troll there (imp sap 2/2 recommended, but not needed after next patch) and completed it and stealthed back down = quest complete, but somehow when stopping to write this a puppy found and killed me hehe, so note to self: run far away be4 giving tips :D

Kommentar von Thottbot

Did this with my lvl 46 lock..
1) fight the way up to the top of the altar.
2)when you reach the top (where they go in groups) sacrafice VW, ran up on the altar
3) When quest is done use howl of terror and BAM ran like hell (they wont shoot because they all are feared :D)

4) dont get killed by a lvl 41 wolf on the way home like me lol

Kommentar von Thottbot

Just run up on your mount run past the altar get a mission completed message and jump down the ledges on the left as u run past the altar you should break aggro doing this and if ur lucky you wont even be dismounted

Kommentar von Thottbot

Some people just want to know where this place is...not how easy it was for you when someone else couldn't do it. I only saw one post that helped with the location and most of the rest were braggers saying how easy it was...wtf...no one cares

Kommentar von Thottbot

Uber-easy if your the right class.

Druid/Rogue = Just cloak because you reach the top and avoid the elites and such.

Hunters/Locks = Just send your pet to attack and quickly hit the top then run away!

Kommentar von Thottbot

How ever can a lvl 48 face 2 lvl 50 elites is beyond me. But it's still easy to get to and easy to complete. Like most others have been doing...run up the steps, touch the altar, and run away. You will mostly likely die, but it's ok. Quest complete and lots of exp.

The Altar of Zul is located in the middle of the map in the south.

Kommentar von Thottbot

done it as a lvl 47 rogue stealthed up got the 2 vilebranch on the sides careful not to aggro two 50 elites and then stealthed to the back and mounted up and ran off

Kommentar von Thottbot

If you have a mount then you can do this from lvl 40+... Might want to bring a healing potion, but that's all you need. Great xp! WHEN YOU DIE YOU WILL SPAWN AT THE SPIRIT HEALER OVER BY THE EASTERN SHORE. Don't accidentally resurrect there thinking you're near the quest giver.

Note: This is only if you need to search the altar - not use the hammer with it (which is a completely different quest-chain. By searching the altar - all you must do is be near the altar at the top, no need for clicking anything.

Hope this helps.

Kommentar von Thottbot

it is at 46,66 and for those who havent coor is at east south of cage 3

Kommentar von Thottbot

All you hafta do is go to the top of the altar and your quest if completed.

When I got to the top, a previous party had already killed off everything at the altar. So I guess I got off lucky. =)

-SoT

Kommentar von Thottbot

i think the problem is that it doesnt flash 'Quest Complete' for everyone... double check if you have completed it after being up there..

Kommentar von Thottbot

as a warrior, i followed the path that leads to the stairs of the targeted building (THE ALTAR OF ZUL 48,68)

it's pretty easy since most of the guards there are magic user. just use shield bash or pummel on them to interrupt their magic and your good to go. they have pretty weak armor and attack power.

at the top, pull the non elites down the stairs and take care of them.

all you need to do after that is run towards the altar at the top and you'll get a "quest complete" kinda message. then,,,just get your @$$ outta there.

*i suggest grinding on the mages if you know how to use your warriors. pretty good xp with drops of magecloth and coins*

goodluck!

Kommentar von Thottbot

Well, for those of us who stay in human form-Pally, warrior, mage... if you have this quest and it's yellow-like it was for me, and likewise are stunned that 2 lvl 50 Elites are waiting for you at the top-don't frett, You only have to let the altar "Pop"-like when you discover new territory. I would recommend killing the two on your way up the stairs, then run to get to the altar, you practically have to stand on it-you don't have to pick anything up, or open anything, so the onslaught of lightening and shadowbolts won't stop you from completing this quest, you might die, or you might be able to jump off the side-I recommend the left side, and run like crazy-if you do die, your repair bill on mid 40 lvl gear shouldn't be too bad. Good Luck!

Kommentar von Thottbot

Just run in until the center of the altar, then you will see that the quest is completed... Now RUN as fast as you can so you leave that NPCs behind and you will have the quest completed without die... I did it as a lvl46 warrior

Kommentar von Thottbot

Don't tell us a long ass story about how you did this, just explain what people need to know.

All you need to do to complete this quest is touch the altar at the very top of the "pyramid".

However your class decides to accomplish that is up to you.

Kommentar von Thottbot

49, 69 coords listed above are correct.

Super easy for my lvl 44 warlock. Had voidwalker out (didnt even need him), mounted up, ran up the steps, stopped for about 2 seconds by the altar, completed quest, ran off the left, fell off the altar, used a health potion, ran like hell. No need to kill a thing.

Kommentar von Thottbot

this one was kinda easy as a 42 pala. i mounted and ran up to the altar, completed the quest, bubbled up and jumped down at the side of the temple

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Not really any trouble as a 46 paladin. Rode up on mount, completed quest, bubbled, jumped off the altar and ran like hell. Took a few to many shadowbolt's to the back, and fell about to the lake. Went back, ressed, rode back to Aerie Peak and turned in quest.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Mount up. Run all the way up the altar and jump on top of the bloody mess, then jump off the building to your left. You'll be safe when you rez if they kill you. ^_^

4400xp for level 44.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

just past the Lake of Valor going SE
almost dead south center of the map
between Shadra'Alor and Jintha'Alor

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Did this as a lvl 43 Pally. I worked my way around to the steps then ran as fast as I could up them casted forbearence at the top and jumped off the right side. Didn't aggro anything after I jumped. Health was at about 20% but I managed not to die.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

The Altar of Zul is marked on the map if you have cleared the fog at that location. Otherwise, bottom center.

This is simply a positional update. Getting to the top is all you need.

Even a level 1 could do it with the services of the graveyard =)

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Pulling a few of the casters may help a bit .. But as mentioned above, you need only to walk up to the altar to complete the quest. Most definitely doable solo if you`re willing to do a suicide run.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I am a lvl 47 druid. I stealthed all the way up, got on platform, then stealthed all the way down. There was no problem, no death...easy.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

did it at lvl 45 pally. would have made it out alive and all except for the 4 lvl 48 horde that were at the bottom of the stairs when i started to run back down.

Just ran straight up completed quest and bubble ran down the steps.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

yes it was quite easy at lvl lvl 49 pally. just killed my way to the top and then i used a shield that lasted 10 seconds which was plenty of time to escape, and also found a mithril ore vein behind there too :).

then i was looking about this quest at this very moment which i had auto-run on, switched back to my screen ran into a mob of lvl 46's hehe. be careful dont do what i did lol. but overall quest was simple.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I did this using an invisibility potion for my mage - worked great and i didn't die.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I did this just now, quite simple actually. Lvl 45 Priest. Run up the stairs, obviously casters have casting time so you may get hit 1-3 times, but not enough to take you out. Run straight through the alter and hang a hard right. Jump off each ledge, which removes you from line of sight from the casters. The jumps take no life at all. I lived through it without even using PW:S :P 4100exp

Kommentar von Allakhazam

As other people below me have claimed, it is quite simple.

I did it as a 42 warrior. I rode my mount the entire way up until I could no longer be mounted and just simply jumped onto the altar and ran out of there. Needless to say, I died quickly after.

I res-sicked and spawned exactly where I had to find the Port Wine for someone in Stranglethorn Vale. I spawned on the very easternmost mountains cemetary.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

All of you and your silly tricks.

Warlocks only must sacrifice voidy ftw

Seriously useful ability for dangerous situations~

Kommentar von Allakhazam

This quest wasn't hard at all. Im a 49 shaman, and I grouped with another 49 shaman. we ALMOST died, but we made it okay :). Now i have the hammer to summon gah'zrilla as well!

Kommentar von Allakhazam

how to do it easy :

Use 2 player, i to bait, another to walk up the stair.

I use rogue to bait, then sprint like hell.

My friend is a paladin and used 6 s invicibility to bait and run

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Here are my sugdestions:

1> Invisibility potion works nice.
2> Pet draging all mobs then you just run, complete Q and run out.

And for priest and pallys, shield will work fine I belive. ;) Then what about a speed potion? :P

Kommentar von Allakhazam

At 48 I just went into defensive stance, ran up and jumped off the right side, I might recommend left instead as soon as the quest says complete.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Goblin Engineering - solution to almost all quests. Run to the top drop the bomb - 10 yards & 5 second stun, mount and ride back out the front. np at lvl 48.

Edited, Tue Mar 21 05:48:36 2006

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Did it right now.. lvl 41 warrior.. ran up and died :p =)) but completed it :)

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Well had my speed stuff on Carrot , mithril spurs and riding enchant on gloves...ran for it aspect of pac till i completed .. just as i did whoomp dead...Thank you tho :D Good advice for solo runs at low level

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Location: The Hinterlands; Aerie Peak; 9.44 (To recieve and complete the quest). The Altar of Zul; 49.68

Description: Although you could mount up and run up the altar to touch the platform and complete the quest, it would be smart to find a group and kill the mobs. The reason being that you can also obtain the "Sacred Mallet" which is used to create the "Mallet of Zul'Farrak" which is used to summon Gahz'rilla in the Zul'Farrak instance. The trolls and wolves around the altar are levels 46-47. However, once you reach the top, you will find two level 50 elites. I brought a level 60 hunter with me to do things the easy way. I sheeped the front elite and from there we successfully cleared the altar. Everyone in the party will be able to loot the mallet from the elites.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

This is very easy for a hunter as long as you have Feign Death and a pet. Just make your pet center of attention, making it attack everyone at once, then run to top of altar then down. By this time your pet would be dead or close to it, so just get ready to FD in a safe area until they leave you alone. Summon your mount and turn in quest! XD

Kommentar von Allakhazam

easy quest.
did it with my lvl 47 hunter

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Oh yeah.. I just completed this quest.. And a 70 orc warrior had just killed the elites. Nice. So I ran up, completed the quest killed the non-elites.., and was then killed by the same Orc who had helped me.. Too bad., but I got 0 durability loss.. :D

Kommentar von Allakhazam

used my horse, ran straight through to the top, horse stopped after abit up top then completed then jumped off (to the left)

Didnt die - lvl 42 pally

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Really easy quest, tho it may sound harder than it is.
As a 48 warrior I got into Defensive Stance and ran up to the altar then quickly jumped off to the left side. After you get down the spells can't hit you anymore and you get out of combat pretty quickly. Lost 30% HP total on this.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Can anyone tell me where the Altar of Zul is located *without* using coordinates? Yes, I understand that it is very easy to run up and complete the quest. I get that, but just *where* is the Altar?

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Did this quest as a lvl 40 rogue.
Mounted, ran up, jumped onto the altar and vanished.
Stealthed back down, and mounted off.

4400xp / 100rep

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Where is the altar?

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Tried the plan above solo with my 44 pally and it worked - died right after complete but went back rezzed and done! Will come back with a group later to kill some mobs

Kommentar von Allakhazam

This quest was, indeed, ridicously easy. As Level 45 Druid I Cat/Stalked to the top, dashed across and was done with it. Travel formed to turn in!

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Mount, charge up the stairs, sacrificing VW on the way up, jump onto alter. As soon as you hit the alter, you become unmounted. Just keep running and jump off the back end.

Piece of cake

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Yes, you can solo this, but the elite mobs at the altar drop the Mallet of Zul (or whatever it's called) that's needed to make the mallet for summoning Gahz'rilla in Zul'Farrak, so it could be worth it getting a few friends and take em down instead of a hit-and-run

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Thought it was going to be easy until I got to the top and saw the 2 elites all the posts were talking about. Just jumped on alter and off back as recommended. Got 4400 XP at Lvl 48.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

It was real easy... I rode over there and killed every mob I saw, until I came at the top then I made my Voidwalker attack the lvl 50 Elite so he got all agro... I just ran up and down then I was done... I'm a lvl 45 Warlock btw :P

Kommentar von Allakhazam

At around (48,67) is the Altar of Zul.

At the top of the pyramid like structure is
Qiaga the Keeper (52)
Morta'gya the Keeper (50)
and 3 Vilebranch Soothsayers (47)

All you have to do for this quest is run to the very top and into the middle where these mobs are at until you get a quest advance. This is more or less a suicide run, I sent my pet in and then ran around until I got complete msg then ran out. My pet ended up dead of course because they are all casters.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I completed this quest at 45, and got 4400 XP and an increase of 110 points to my reputation with Wildhammer Clan.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

why do you all have to talk about how you did the quest?isn't it suppose to be that your suppose to tell us where the quest is to?

Kommentar von Taraezor

While you are at it, you'd be silly to just discover the Altar. Qiaga die Bewahrerin, a Level 50 elite, drops the Hochheiliger Schlaghammer, which eventually can become the Schlaghammer von Zul'Farrak. You need this to access the final boss of Zul'Farrak. Qiaga die Bewahrerin is accompanied by Morta'gya die Bewahrerin, along with some other helpers. Obviously too tough to solo alone at the level you'd be wanting to run Zul'Farrak, but worth keeping in mind. The Hochheiliger Schlaghammer is a guaranteed drop, by the way, for anyone who had a tag. No quest required too.

Kommentar von Wimbleton

My 46 Druid had no trouble stealthing up to the right and left sides of the altar but resist the impulse to kill one of the soothsayers to get the chest. They are linked to all the other hostiles on the altar, who will start firing so many bolts of who knows what at you, it will look like Times Square on a Saturday night. But after just barely escaping off the right side, I went back and found I could carefully sneak around the Soothsayer on the left side.

Wandered around the back waiting for "Quest complete" notification and never got one. Jumped up on the actual altar itself and took two screenshots to email Blizz with my righteously-indignant email. I was just starting to think about that chest again when I looked in my quest log and it showed that the quest was complete. Apparently you have to figure that out for yourself.

Edit: This seems to have been fixed. Got the "Quest complete" notification today as I got within about two feet of the Altar on the right side, as did my partner.

Edit 2 (10/6/2023): One more thing to keep in mind is that if you make a mistake or another player aggros them, the mobs on and around the Altar of Zul will chase you farther than any mob I can remember (or at least since 2005). While fleeing, I changed planes in Dar es Salaam and they were still after me. I finally made it to Wellington, NZ, walked into a bar and they were waiting for me. Fortunately they had been overserved by the bartender, who was an old friend. By that time, we all decided we should calm down and order another round. They were tired of being Vilebranch Trolls anyway and, last I heard, they had opened a restaurant in Cap d'Antibes with the most-unusual menu on the Riviera.
