Quest: Marshal Windsor

Objectives

Travel to Blackrock Mountain in the northwest and enter Blackrock Depths. Find out what became of Marshal Windsor.

You recall Ragged John talking about Windsor being dragged off to a prison.

Description

So that good for nothing coward says that Windsor is alive, eh?

Suit up, deputy, you are going in to find him. If Windsor is alive, you are to bring him back. If he's dead, I want proof.

<Maxwell laughs.>

I bet you are getting tired of hearing that, aren't you?

Completion

Where is he! I'll murder him!

Additional Notes

This is where things start to get harder. You can start this at level 54, but I would not advise it until closer to level 60. Take a full group. You will be heading into Blackrock Depths for this. Marshal Windsor is located in one of the cells towards the right side of the entrance to the instance.

The quest isn't too hard to solo as a level 60 rogue. I think any other class would need a full party.

I used nightscape boots to help with the stealth, I highly recommend them for this trip. Also, you'll want to have 300 lockpicking (though I don't know if you need it at 300, that's what I had)

From the entrance, go straight between the two guards and into the courtyard. Be very careful, there are patrols with dogs doing circles. The guards won't see you, but if you're not careful the dogs will. The place you want to head is at your 2 o'clock position. As you get closer, you'll see the little jail cages suspended from chains.

Follow the corrodor, avoiding dogs and patrols. Your minimap will show Windsor up as the little yellow dot we've all come to know and love. It should lead you to a cell that is guarded by three dwarves and a dog.

Here's the tricky part. You have to get rid of the guards to pick the lock on the door to get to Windsor. The way I did it was to sap one of the guards, kill the dog and vanish. Wait for cooldowns, sap a guard, kill the other two guards (thank you blade flurry) and vanish again. Finally kill the last guard. The guards run, so use crippling poison.

I had some epics in my gear which made life easier; I suspect though it could be managed with just blues, just brind blinding powder and maybe a healing potion or two.

When you leave the instance, make sure you don't reset it. Once you turn in the quest, the chain will continue till you get the crumpled note. That note will mean another trip back to Windsor and since the respawn rate in BRD is very, very slow, if you do them quickly you will come back and find the guards still dead.

Good luck!
thanks

The quest seems to end like *poof*, nothing to be done next, BUT if u continue with some little darkiron dwarves farming u might get " a crumpled up note" from them, thats your next path. Give that to Marshal and you shall continue. I dont know the %drop but i do know u can farm the Slaves outside instance too, there's where i got mine.

Good day.
