Murkdeep can be found at 36, 76 (https://www.wowhead.com/classic/npc=10323) on the shore, surrounded by Murloc hunters, warriors, and coastrunners in a small camp.

Kommentar von OverlordQ

Not going to be able to solo this at level 15, will need a party.

Kommentar von 8271

I did this with me (a lvl 16 mage) and a priest (level 15). We successfully killed him but the murlocs surrounded him was a pain. DO NOT SOLO THIS. We died about 3 times.

Kommentar von shires315

Easily solo'd this quest at level 16, with a lvl 15 pet. Just don't stand next to the water so you can rest between waves.

Kommentar von mashby

Did this solo as a level 18 hunter, but it wasn't easy. I could pull away the surrounding murlocks except for two. Those two stuck with Murkdeep, so bear that in mind. When you attack Murkdeep, you're going to be taking on 3 level 17-18 murlocks.

Kommentar von mikeismad789

Just solo'd as a level 17 druid w/out my 18 skills. easy as long as you could kill the adds before fighting him.

easy to solo lvl 12hunter LOL kiting ftw :D

Kommentar von Cybersonix

Soloed as a lvl 18 druid. Very easy. Murkdeeps spawn when you kill 3 groups of murlocs in 36.76. First there are hunters and warriors murlocs then 3 coastrunner on very low lvl then a small group of hunter or something. After that murkdeep spawn with one guard.

Kommentar von Flitzy

If you save this until level 20 as a druid, it can be a snap. Once Murkdeep spawns, root the additional murloc that accompanies him, then run as far as you can get before he leashes - this will ensure that you will have enough time to kill Murkdeep before entangling roots releases and you have another add to deal with. If you can put a dot up on Murkdeep (Moonfire, etc), it will be helpful since it will have a chance to kill him while he flees so you don't have to deal with two mobs if he decided to run back while you are engaged with the rooted one. I used kitty form to kill him, but you can probably also use bear or humanoid form just as well. Good luck =)

Kommentar von Icemelt

For those of you that do not know, advice from hunters should only be tried by hunters (and maybe warlocks). For a very long time now, hunters have been known as the "solo class" because they really have two players: the hunter and a meat shield (pet).

Note This!! - Any time a hunter says it can be done and you are not a hunter, it is a totaly different game.

This said, I did complete the quest as a level 15 Shaman. Here's how..

As said above, pulling the mobs in singles or smaller groups is correct. The problem is when facing Murkdeep. Several quests in the game will require you to kill a "named" NPC and he/she will almost always have "bodyguards". This one is no exception. A hunter above states "easy to solo lvl 12hunter LOL kiting ftw :D" and he's full of it. Post the video friend. I would bet he completed the quest in the same way or very similar to the other hunters, sending in pet on a few pulled mobs and letting his "meat shield" take the damage. Kiting is not easy and with the new daze mechanics, I would bet all my gold that he did not "kite" the mobs (probably doesen't know what kiting is).

If you have any ranged abilities, start off with those on Murkdeep. I used Lightning after placing a Stoneclaw totem about half way in my cast range. Draenei have a racial HoT (heal over time) that I used after a nice big Nuke on the Murkdeep and I plop a Fire Nova and after plop a Flamtoung. At this point I was at a bit more than half health, my HoT was gone and the bodyguards were about to rush me. I self heal to fill my bar.

Murkdeep is now at 1/4th health, but it's not over yet. I've not done any damage to the guards, so new totems would be toast and Claw tot is on cooldown. I don't have much mana, so I Flame shock, recharge my shield and plop a Stoneskin. The entire time I'm backing up to make distance between me and the guards, I had to be careful not to evade the mobs (another reason kiting is hard here), but being on the brink of evading mobs can be a good thing. A final Earth Shock kills Murkdeep, I now have only 14% health and the guards are wicked pissed. I drop my Earthbind and turn-tail, running further away from the mobs origional spawn point. Sure enough, they evade.

I run up to the corpse of Murkdeep, grab my loot and eat/drink atop his fallen body. Success!

Good Luck and Death to Murkdeep!

Kommentar von Thottbot

He's at roughly 35,74.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Find the the 3 cane huts down the beach, head south passed the washed up monsters.

Stand on the hill over looking the huys and attack from there. This helps spot him coming from the sea and helps targeting.

Kommentar von Thottbot

wow, this was a cool little quest. i thought he was not spawned also, but cleared the camp, then little waves came running out of the ocean to the camp, and the 3rd wave was murdaloc and a friend! kewl quest

Kommentar von Thottbot

Be very careful with this quest. I tried it at lvl 19 with my lvl 17 pet and died at least 4 times. This is an extremly hard one. Oh and you have to kill the first spawns, then more will run out of the water, kill those, and then some more will run out with Murkdeep. Have fun

Kommentar von Thottbot

Read Pekky's comment with some amusement. My single biggest complaint (and one of only a few) about the quests is that Blizzard chooses (that's right, they've discussed it at length, and even explained their choice in an email to me) NOT to separately designate solo quests from group quests, except in a few specific cases. Discovering which quest is soloable and which can only be done by a group (at the appropriate level) is part of the fun. Don't want those Spirit Healers to get too lonely!

I can see their point to a certain extent: they want us to ask other players about the quests and maybe get a little assistance.

Of course you could always go to Thottbot....

Kommentar von Thottbot

I had the same experience as one of the others here. I had to wipe the others out, before he came running. (He comes in the third wave).

I found him north of the washed up sea creatures. (closer to astranaar than the sea creatures)

Kommentar von Thottbot

I have soloed this quest every time I've done it, most recently with a level 19 warrior. I've also done it around the same level with a druid and mage. I didn't pay attention to my first two characters, but with the warrior I found that the above statements seemed to apply to my event. I cleared the camp, then three coastrunners popped (level 13 I think they were). I fought them off then two level 16 greymist warriors came out; killed them then Murkdeep spawned with a level 16 greymist hunter attached. As long as you rest between fights, it's a sinch.

Kommentar von Thottbot

I start attacking one and i am far away from the other ones and all run against me :O. I am level 17 and can kill 2-3 against me easy but when 7 is against me it impossible. Give some tips pls :P

Kommentar von Thottbot

Lvl to do it -
This quest was very easily soloed at lvl 18 by me a hunter my pet is lvl 18 too. this quest is probaly doable at earlier levels and by all classes. unless you have a pet or a friend i sggest minimum lvl 17, 16 if u have good gear.

How to do it-
Head down south on the shore from auberdine and at 36,78 you will find 3 murloc huts gaurded by some murlocs. Clear this camp by single pulls, and as soon as you clear the camp, back away from it, 3 lvl 14 or so murlocs will come out of the water and guard the camp. kill these easily and back up out of the camp and heal/drink whatever u wanna do, then the booss should come out of the water kill him and your done easy as pie

Kommentar von Thottbot

Died twice going after Murkdeep. Kept going back to my corpse. Third time, Murkdeep was hanging out near the water by himself. Me and my pet took him out without any of the other greymist's coming after us.

I guess the best strategy to soloing this is hangout and wait from him to wander off.

Kommentar von Thottbot

its a really easy quest...soloed it with 17 druid go south from auberdine and stay near the coast....u will see 3huts...kill one by one all greymist Hunters and Warriors....when u kill the last one run away from sea(as they come from there) and w8 some secs...3more will come(lvl 13)kill em all(together as u can't kill one by one)and again stay away from sea ...2more will come...lvl 15...kill em(u have to stay away from sea) and w8..after some secs the boss will apear...w8 till one monster only is near him...then attack him(if u can sheep or sap the other one to make it easier)..if u are lvl 17+ u can easily slay him and take the bounty...(1st time i add comment...sorry for mistakes)

Kommentar von Thottbot

You have to kill everyone at the 3 huts. Then 2 little weak murlocs appear in the hut... kill them 2, then in about 10 secs 2 lvl 15 warriors will pop up in the hut. Now get rdy, kill them both and then Murkdeep will come out of the water just like the other guys said. Murkdeep will never spawn himself u hav to kill his murlocs first many times.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Well, if u clear the camp and they dont come out, i know y. I waited around the camp for a minute after clearing then i hit the fire in the middle and the first of Murkdeep's mob came

Kommentar von Thottbot

I have just done this as a lvl 31 pally all the times I've been here and never seen the poster.

The last comment about the fire rings true for me. Village with 3 huts I cleared before taking out ever Murloc further down. I then headed back to the 3 hut village and started killing them when I ran over the campfire to kill one sudenly Murcdeep and a warrior were behind me.

Kommentar von Thottbot

I must confess i did this one at lvl 19 cos i read the respawn stuff and tought would be harder and didnt see the coords b4 so cba to look for it. But then i decided to do the quest, got the coords for the hut (36,78) and went there. I didnt even had to kill any of the creatures. I aimed at the sea and murkdeep was there with his friends. Used the rifle to draw his attention and killed him fast while his bud was spearing me. killed him and ran away. end of history.

Kommentar von Thottbot

First of all you must kill the 6 Murloc Warriors and Hunters that are by the town with 3 huts.

That spawns 3 lv 13 Coastrunners.

Take them out to spawn 2 lv 15 Warriors.

Take them out to spawn Murkdeep (lv 19) and a Warrior (lv 15).

My alt, being a rogue, sapped Murkdeep and murdered the Warrior. I healed myself with a bandage in time for Murkdeep to come to his senses. A Gouge, Backstab, Sinister Strike, and an Eviscerate later Murkdeep was dead.

Kommentar von Thottbot

I did this quest solo no problem. Cleared camp.

3 level 13 adds

2 level 16 adds

Then the 19 boss came with a 17 hunter add.

Kommentar von Thottbot

I just soloed the quest at lev 19.
I'm a retribution pally.
I actually died once, close to twice.
But you'll live, just as long as you are prepared for the reinforcements.
I actually one-hitted Murkdeep himself.
Judge of the Crusader + Seal of Command + Stun + Judge of Command ^^

Kommentar von Thottbot

To confirm a previous observation, you need to get fairly close to the camp to trigger the script, it seems.

I died once whilst trying to kill Murkdeep; came back, and he'd despawned. So I cleared the camp from a distance, and - nothing; just sat around drumming my fingers for a few minutes. It wasn't until another player ran into the camp that the waves of Murlock restarted, ending in Murkdeep.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

After the first time you have "cleanised" the little village of its residents, you must approach the village's bonfire, and a couple of tiderunnders will "spawn" out of the ocean to check on the village's situation. Kill them go near the bonfire again, and a new set of "task force"(level 14-15 warriors) will appear to check on the village. After killing this set wait for a bit to see if Murkdeep appears. If it doesn't go near the bonfire, and quickly retreat, and Murkdeep will appear with his body guard(I faced a level 17 Greymist Hunter). You know the rest.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I did it quite easily , Druid lvl 18. U have to watch out cause he have some little friend around, but once u are 1 on 1 with with, he's a dead mob.

Good reward, good Xp.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I think they changed something as Murkdeep is in the camp and if you attack one of the other murlocs, several will run to attack as well as Murkdeep. So you've got at least 4 lvl 17 on you at one time.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Where does this mission start? Or do you just kill him?

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I have this quest

Dreanei warrior

Kommentar von Allakhazam

The location of the camp is 36,77

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I solo'd this as a 17 Druid. Not impossible by any means, but pretty hard.

At (36,77) I started at the north end of the camp and killed a couple of the 17's at that end of the camp. You don't have to empty the camp, but you do have to kill some of them.

Then a group of about 3 lvl 12's and a 16 appeared in the center. What I did was stand far away, blast one of the weak ones as fast as i could until it died, then ran away before the rest of the group killed me. Then go back and repeat against the smaller group.

When that group dies, another group of about 3 16-17's appear. I did the same thing. stand far away, blast one as fast as i could until it died, then ran away. Repeat until that group is dead.

Then Murkdeep appears with a bodyguard. Did the same thing to his bodyguard, then came back and got Murkdeep.

If you want to be on the safeside, bring a potion or two, and some food/drink always helps.

In case anyone was wondering, I didn't really have to deal with any of the original guys respawning (possibly only 1). After all i didn't wipe out the whole camp or anything. This whole thing probably took about 10 minutes. (I know it sounds longer, but it's not that bad.)

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I did this quest as a lvl. 18 Hunter. When I got to the village, I was the only character there. I couldn't see Murkdeep, so I killed just 2 Murlocs, then ran along the shore - I just happened to catch a glimpse of something in the water... and there he was! Sitting just under the surface just off-shore! Alone! As soon as I attacked him, a Murloc Hunter appeared, but my pet took the bodyguard down and I took Murkdeep down easily. So before you set about wiping out the village, just check that the little bugger isn't sitting in the water all along!

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Spent some time analyzing this last night.

Steps in detail:

Find the camp - it is the only one with huts in Darkshore.
Clear all mob spawn.
**Stand near the camp fire in the middle** - For those people who have repeatedly cleared the camp, this step is what you were missing.
Clear adds from water.
Clear adds from water again.
Take Murkdeep's life.
Profit.

Also note that the camp itself repops pretty fast so be quick.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

1700 XP
150 Rep with Darnassus.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I've killed Murkdeep about four times now, and it keeps saying that he's not slain; so, I don't know what to do! Any suggestions?

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Murkdeep is no longer sitting in the camp, as now you must kill all of the murlocs already inside the camp, then kill a wave of 3 lvl 11-12 Murlocs, then 2 lvl 15-16 ones, then Murkdeep comes with a lvl 16-17 Murloc Hunter. Easy.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

ARE DRANEI CAPABLE OF GETTN THIS QST?

Kommentar von Allakhazam

At 1700 XP, this quest gives an enormous amount of experience for the level. It was fairly easy to do, I started clearing the camp at 18 and died by doing something stupid.

When I came back I saw someone running along the coast and asked them to give me a hand for a sec to complete the quest. They had the quest in their log too and since we were grouped we could both complete the quest.

It took us about 3 minutes to complete the quest with another partner.

And the quest starts by reading a sign in front of the auberdine inn.

This would be a super great quest for a couple of level 12-14 characters grouped.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

it is out side the inn

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Did the quest really easily! Found the camp at 36,77 just following the beach south. Found a level 19 warrior and asked him if he needed the quest too, he said no but he offered to help me. So we partied and killed a few murlocks, and then Murkdeep came out of nowhere and attacked the warrior. Killed him easily, and quest done :)

Also, the beached sea turtles are all along the beach so if you need them aswell there's some further on than the murloc camp ;)

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Well, I have started a new Alt (NE Warrior) and wanted to kill Murkdeep because he is so easy...... HE AINT THERE ANYMORE! i have pillaged and ravaged and slain all murlocs there! At the camp and at those turtle corpses, however after waiting for 4 more respawns of his whole gang and killed 'em all again and again he did not appear! more people complained and i ticketed the GM's. But they say (as always) the quest works fine..... well waiting an hour for a respawn of 1 mob is a bit much no?

anyway, haven't killed him yet 'cause he ain't there..... beter luck next time?

Kommentar von Allakhazam

If you are level 16 hunter you can just do it.. Just use the "die and go back" method.. :P But you need a good pet, and try to pull him out as fast as possible, because when the others respawn, you are in "deepmurk" !@#$ :P

If you need cordinates, here: 36,76

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Where it is?

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Waited to level 20 to do this as a Draenai Paladin. Murkdeep appeared during first attempt but i gacked and some *person* stood there, watched them kill me and then took murkdeep after I died...second attempt I was able to get this done and made 1700xp on the turn in. The location of the camp is 36,77

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Murkdeep is far to the south along the beach. Past the remains of the turtle. You'll find a village of Murlocs, but you won't see Murkdeep. You apparently have to kill off the entire village for him to appear.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

44 Mage working Darny faction, cleared the camp six times over an hour or so (leaving after three clears for 40-some minutes to do other quests, then stopped back for two more clearings, then more quests, then came back again). Sixth time I cleared it, then killed the coastrunner along the shore to the north, then ran to the water to see if perhaps he had spawned but just wasn't coming cause he was scared, but didn't see him... ran back to the camp and two murlocs were there, killed them and looked to the water, and lo and behold here comes Murkdeep and his buddy!

If it doesn't work the first five times.. keep trying :) and kill the coastrunner too, it might help.

385 Darnassus Rep gain (with the Human rep bonus and all)

Kommentar von snowieken

And yes, in 2021 in Classic, you still have numbnuts who just run and in tag him when you did all the work spawning him.

So, take note: if you see him in the camp, look around or ask if someone has spawned him, don't just go "yay" and kill him.

Kommentar von Teetee1014

I'm a lvl17 hunter, and I was about to run through the water to get around the camp, and almost ran straight into Murkdeep, killed him and his guard (yes, I used my pet as bait...) And none of the murlocs from the huts attacked me. Idk if I'm just lucky he was there before I killed everyone or if he's there from the get-go and no one knows it, but it seems way easier than fighting off all those waves... 😊

Kommentar von gildagger

you dont have to kill anything for murkdeep to spawn. He was just wading in the water. Create a macro /target murkdeep and you will find him easily.

Kommentar von Etreum

I cleared the camp and the adds three times and Murkdeep was not showing up. I was standing right by the fire, etc.

I was ready to leave in frustration when I noticed he was in the water (Under water) with his warrior bodyguard. I could not see him from where I was waiting for him (By the bonfire).

He never came ashore! So if he does not show up for you, this is another possibility.
