For more information about the dungeon, please refer to our detailed Deadmines dungeon guide.

There are a number of quests available to Alliance players in the Deadmines,which are picked up both inside and outside the dungeon. For Horde players, thereare no quests in this dungeon whatsoever.

There is also the quest Collecting Memories, but we strongly suggestskipping this, as it is extremely time consuming.

1.1.

Collecting Memories

Collecting Memories can be a very time consuming quest to completedue to the drop rates and respawn timers of the mobs, but if you wish to completeit anyway, you should pick it up from Wilder Thistlenettle in theDwarven Distrct of Stormwind. You will need to be at least Level 14 to pick it up.

The quest requires you to kill the undead mobs that are found directly outsideof the instance. These mobs will drop Miners' Union Cards and you willneed to collect 4 of them for the quest.

1.2.

The Defias Brotherhood

The Defias Brotherhood is a long chain that starts with Gryan Stoutmantleat Sentinel Hill in Westfall. You can start this chain of quests at Level 14, butyou are unlikely to finish it until Level 18 or higher, unless you are carriedthrough the dungeon by a higher level player.

The chain of quests focuses on collecting information about the Defias Brotherhoodbefore asking you to meet with a Defias traitor. The traitor will show you thelocation of the hideout and, in the final part of the chain, Gryan will ask youto enter the hideout and kill Edwin VanCleef.

The full chain of quests is listed below.

You will need to gather 10 Red Silk Bandanas by killing Defias NPCsin the Deadmines instance.

If you do not want to complete the instance and only want to complete this quest,you can also kill Defias NPCs that are located just outside of the instance. Werecommend doing it once you find a group for the Deadmines, as there are morethan enough bandanas for your whole party.
