The pommel drops from the chests that spawn when you kill the level 20-22 Rotting Slimes (https://www.wowhead.com/classic/npc=3928) in southeast Ashenvale.

Comment by 8403

As entropic said, the pommel will be inside the chests that drop from the rotting slimes. The pommel is not guaranteed to be in the first or even second chest that drops, so just keep looking. These slimes can be found by following the main road east out of astranaar. You will come to a fork in the road that looks like a rounded off "Y". The south road, if you check the sign, will head to the barrens. Follow this road til you come to about the middle of its length. When you are at the middle of the road, look directly east. There should be a small lake with some level 27-30 timberling elementals. Direcly west from this spot is where you will find the slimes. Kill them until they drop a chest with your pommel in it. This is the last piece of the Rod! Celebrate, then head back to shael'dryn for the next step in the chain.

Comment by hnordland

The pommel dropped for me with the first slime I killed at 67, 77.

Comment by Vandlo

When I found it, the chest was just laying on a corpse that I happened upon. If you get lucky you can let someone else do the work of killing the slimes!

Comment by pitOOf

First kill of a slime dropped the chest containing it
Mob found around 70.74

Comment by Thottbot

Quite right! It's a randonm drop off the slimes outside. Teronis' Journal contains a very strong hint to that! Sorry.

Comment by Thottbot

Thanks for the info. concerning the box drop. THat will teach me to read all quests carefully and not just blindly except them!

Thanks again.

The slimes are South of Splintertree Post (East of Astranaar).
The Entrance - Without running into a lot of Red NPC's - is along the road just before Splintertree Post (To the south).

Thottbots image of where the box drops is here.

Hope that helps

Comment by Thottbot

Dropped off a Rotting Slime (lvl 21) between the Warsong Labor Camp and The Dor'Danil Barrow Den. The chest is named Rusty Chest and it really drops on the ground, you won't get a chest into your inventory to open via looting a slime, the chest isn't locked either. So watch the ground around your killed Slimes, not to miss the chest.
There was 28 copper and a Silk Cloth in it, too ;)

Comment by Thottbot

Take the right toward the barrens. A very short way down the road, on the Left (east side), there will be an almost flat narrow valley looking area to walk through. There are also a few scouts up on the hill to the left when you first take the pass, be careful. Walk a little ways down the open area that looks almost like a pathway. You will see slime. Start killing. Keep walking and killing. The slime will drop a box. It will be sitting on the ground in the middle of the dead slime. Open it. There you go.

Comment by Thottbot

I got it in 1 kill at 73,70 pretty easy

Comment by Thottbot

I finally found moonwell in Iris lake where she/ he is supposed to be. I have the Pommel to turn quest in, but when I got there nobody was there! Now This quest is put on hold until somebody can tell me WHY! Where is Shael Drynn?

Comment by Thottbot

Ive killed almost 25 or so Slimes so far near barrens entrance and have gottin the box like 7 times...but everytime its not in there...just wool, broken locks,pratice locks and copper...
Is this happening to anyone else?

Can anyone help me figure out what i might be missing or doin wrong plz :)

Comment by Thottbot

box dropped of slime 72/75 south of splinter tree...watch for the steatlh npcs...

oh..it didnt drop (in the usual box like other items..)
it APPEARED as the slime was bout 3/4 dead...

Comment by Thottbot

i found mine at 73,70....it was the first slime i killed...it will be in a box that it drops you must open the box seperatley you dont get the box when you loot it.

Comment by Thottbot

Got it on a first drop as lvl 22... I don't undestand why this is a lvl 28 quest =p.

Comment by Thottbot

i was going to the barrens and i killed a rotteing slime just for fun and a box was where the rotting slime was and i opened it and i got a quest item and this was a rotting slime rite next to the barrens gate

Comment by Thottbot

If ur looking for the Iron Pommel; just kill some of those slime things (around tloc 76,76), they have a chance to drop a chest, and the Pommel is in that chest.

Comment by Thottbot

first kill - 70, 75

Comment by Thottbot

An easy way to find these slimes is to first find the Warsong Labor Camp (Just off the road to the Barrens) and go through (Or around it) untill you come across the Dor'Danil Barrow Den. Kill the slimes there and, before long, a box will drop (WARNING: The box does NOT appear in the loot window, it drops on the ground and ANYONE can take it!)

Comment by Thottbot

found the wooden key at 57.39 =)

Comment by Thottbot

The Iron Pommel is found inside a box that drops off Rotting Slimes at 70,75. It actually appears on the ground next to the corpse of the slime...it is not something that you loot off the slime. Every time that I have completed this quest it has dropped off the first slime I kill at 70,75. That is just a few yards east of the spawn point of the Horde NPC Torek and his four Splintertree raiders. If you are traveling on the road south toward the Barrens, and you pass the path leading west to Silverwing Outpost, watch the east side of the road. When you see a break in the hill on that side of the road, turn east and start killing slimes. This quest is very easy.

Comment by Thottbot

I had two Rotting Slimes drop lock boxes right next to each other at 73,73. Only the first one contained the Iron Pommel, of course, and I'd killed closed to a dozen before getting here for the successful kill.

Comment by Thottbot

This quest is not much of a challenge the slimes are only lvl 21 22 which is daft considering I got this quest at lvl 27. As a druid I went cat form and stealthed into the den there are some lvl 27 baddies on the right hand side found the slimes at 73 72. The second slime I killed dropped a box and inside was the pommel! Stealthed back and I was away no problems. Once again the co ordinates provided were spot on so thanks for those. Before i got my add ons I used too spend ages running around looking for places I mean lets face it the directions you get off the quest givers aren't always very presice. I reccomend everyone too get Titan Panel add on or simular makes life so much easier.

Comment by Thottbot

I've run several toons through this quest and the slime you're looking for can always be found at 69.79, always trying to climb the same tree. HTH.

Comment by Thottbot

found mine at 73,70 took about 5 kills of the sluges

Comment by Thottbot

Just got it to drop at 70,75 after about 6 kills.

Easy work!

Comment by Allakhazam

The pommel CAN drop off slimes that are not in Dor'Danil. I was headed that way because alot of people said they got theirs around there and it dropped off the first slime I killed. Level 20...very nice. ^_^

Comment by Allakhazam

This was super easy.. found the slimes just off the road - they were only lvl 20's, so my lvl 26 Druid creamed them in like 2 hits. 2nd slime dropped the box.

Easy peasy ^^

Comment by Allakhazam

As you travel East from Astranaar, you will come to a fork in the road with a sign pointing to The Barrens.

Take this road south. On the right (west) side you will see Skywing Outpost (Alliance).

At this point, stray from the road, going off to the left (EAST) and start killing the brown slimes (level 21-22). Shouldn't take more than five kills.

If you get to the big Horde encampment, you have gone too far south.

Comment by Allakhazam

i killed lik 50 slimes looking 4 this then the chest spawned in front of the den afta i kild a slime, so u guys that got it on first or second... i just dont know. it also took me 12 kills to get the wooden rod from the walking trees, so... i dont know. im just unlucky maybe?

Edited, Sat Mar 4 21:47:44 2006

Comment by Allakhazam

The slimes you need to kill are just north east of Fallen Sky Lake. A chest will spawn when you kill one and inside is the pommel you need. Mine spawned on the 5th kill. Super easy.

Oh and 2300 xp, plus 100 rep with Darnassus at lvl 33.

Edited, Sat Apr 1 12:22:01 2006

Comment by Allakhazam

Got the chest at 71,73 on the 4th kill

Comment by Allakhazam

Chest dropped on the 3rd Rotting Slime I killed.

At level 28 I got: 2300 exp and 110 rep with Darnassus.

Comment by Allakhazam

No chest dropped to the ground until I killed a slime in the Dor'Danil Barrow Den labeled zone. Just a suggestion.

Comment by Allakhazam

The very first Rotting Slime I hit dropped the quest item, lucky me :)

Comment by Allakhazam

Got mine just east of the silverwing outpost. 2nd slime dropped it.

Comment by Allakhazam

thanks for all the positive and direct posts

Comment by Allakhazam

I got the pommel piece, i can't find the moonwell i'm supposed to go to

HELP!

Comment by Allakhazam

Follow road leading to the Barrons, there is a samll encampment of Splintertree Raiders to the left, go east past them. I got it as random drop from a slim creature. Good Hunting.

Comment by Allakhazam

First Rotting slime lvl20, I killed dropped the box, I was at POS 68.77. I could have gotten lucky, but when i passed this path before i got a box too, but I didn't have the quest. Could just be coincidence, but thought I would let everyone know.

Comment by Allakhazam

Link to Rotting Slime are as below.
Rotting Slime are creatures that roam alone the hills that boarders the Barrens. When you take the road south to the Barrens, you will see an Ocr encampment with peons chopping trees on your left (east). Direstly south of the encampment on the hills are Rotting Slimes. They drop a chest every time which contains the quest item.

Comment by Allakhazam

I only need 2 mobs for the coffer, in arround COORDENATES 70,75

Comment by Allakhazam

2300 Exp...lvl 27

Comment by Allakhazam

I've been looking for a long time and none of the slimes have dropped it, I've looked for the coordinates and found them and none of the slimes in those places dropped the pommel.

Comment by Allakhazam

The moonwell you were asking about is the one you got the quest from Shael'dryn. It is at 53, 46. The slimes are around 70,75. I'm just now killing these. I was under the impression that I was going to wait around for the ones at Fallen Sky Lake or w/e and that was a mistake! There are TONS here.
By the way I got it on about the 4th or 5th slime ~ a box you just click to open EASY EASY ~ now off to do the diseases!

Just kill slimes till you get a chest to loot off them.

Comment by Allakhazam

ran over there, saw a slime, killed it.. and there it was. Easy peasy

Comment by Allakhazam

First slime off to the side of the road dropped it for me...

Comment by Allakhazam

I GOT MY KEY 1ST KILL OFF AWITHERED ANCIENT AT 60'43

Comment by Allakhazam

bah, SLIMES? I went through the barrow den three tiems, killing dozens of undead looking for the thing...

Comment by Allakhazam

Iron pommel chest drops at random off of slimes in east Ashenvale.

Comment by Allakhazam

But the quest says to look on the road to the barrens...which is in west ashenvale.

Some slime here though I'm lookin...

Comment by Allakhazam

Got in on my first kill! :D Please visit this link http://world5.monstersgame.co.uk/?ac=vid&vid=59170940

Comment by Allakhazam

For people like me, the chest is not a loot item off a slimy goo thing. After the kill the chest pops on the ground. Then you have to open it. Goo's are at 70,75

to go the location make a macro with this

/script px,py=GetPlayerMapPosition("player")
/script DEFAULT_CHAT_FRAME:AddMessage(format(" %i , %i",GetZoneText(),px*100,py*100));

Comment by Allakhazam

Coordinates 70, 85

there are 3 or 4 that spawn on the side of wall there.

Comment by Allakhazam

Up to this part i had the first mob i killed drop the item needed :p

Comment by Allakhazam

killed a slime, dropped a chest, took me 1 kill :D

Comment by Allakhazam

I got mine off a slime in 69.75 (west of the refuge). Really lucky I guess.

Comment by Allakhazam

LOL...I found the Iron Pommel in a chest dropped by a slime and was like "What's this?" until I took it and the quest tracker popped up. :) The slime was just in my way as I was on the way to the Den. Hadn't paid much attention to the journal so I was quite surprised.

Comment by Allakhazam

the rotting slime around 71,73

They dont actually "drop" the chest when you loot their corpse, it will be on the ground next to their corpse.

Open it and the Iron Pommel will be on the ground.

Comment by Allakhazam

I found the chest (with the rod) at coordinates 54.35 in a glade west of the borders near Felwood. Just as the quest says.
The key for the chest I got dropped by the second treant I killed.
Near the road before the glade.

Comment by Allakhazam

Drops off the Slimes near the den, found it first shot.

Comment by Allakhazam

Found the chest on the 5th or 6th slime I killed at the location already posted. The quest was listed at a lvl far above what lvl it actually takes to kill the slimes. They were green when I killed them at lvl 27.

Comment by Allakhazam

100 Rep with Darnassus.

Comment by Allakhazam

Pay attention to the journal that you're given at the beginning of this whole quest on this one, people. In it, it says that a slime creature would probably have swallowed the chest with the final piece in it (which it did).
Traveling south down the road, when you get to the fork with the orcs, the slime creatures will be moving around the hills close by on either corner. If you stand at the fork, you should be able to see them.
The pain about this one is that the slimes take FOREVER here to regenerate. I was in a group with one player. Since she had the loot setting on uncommon when finding/opening the chest and NOT TELLING ME, we had to wait around for the thing to appear again, roughly 15 minutes.
I don't know if the cloth that's also in the chest is used for anything in particular.

Comment by Allakhazam

Dor Danil Barren is the name of the section of Ashenvale that they are in (the directions given are accurate).

They won't dropt the chest everytime but it was just a few kills for me before I got one. On a PvP server, this area is pretty scary to go to at these levels. The NPC night elf rogues there also like to pop in and out of stealth so the sound effect makes you wonder if some player enemy is nearby.

Comment by Allakhazam

Do you know the coordinate?

Comment by Allakhazam

The tips here are pretty helpful, the location of my particular slime was 68,77. What surprised me was the level of the slime that I killed that spawned the chest with the quest piece---He was only level 21. I'm certainly not complaining about the mob level for a quest that's listed at level 28, it just surprised me.

Comment by Allakhazam

1 kill 28 mage EZ

Comment by Allakhazam

The very first slime that I killed dropped it for me, so more effort was required to run down there and back. :P

Comment by Allakhazam

Coords are 71.76
have a nice day

Comment by Allakhazam

2nd Kill, 25 Priest, the two I killed were lvl 20 and 21, easy.

Comment by Allakhazam

Second slime dropped the Rusty Chest with the pommel inside. Just off the road at 71, 76 across from the Silverwing Outpost.

Comment by Angelhearth

Be aware that graphics has changed since 2005! Turn down your settings to 1 when doing quests like these, otherwise you might actually not see the damned thing your supposed to pick up. ;)

Comment by Syrlin

It's not a drop!

After you kill a slime, look with your eyes at its corpse. There should be a chest there which you open.

Don't be like me and spend an hour killing these expect it to drop the pommel like regular loot.

Comment by samuelvvv

After you get your bar consider going on into barrens to get the Ratchet and Booty Bay flight points. There are horde guards at the rampart at the border but just move to the left you'll see a downed fence and then a fairly clear run to Ratchet. Pick up the flight point then take the boat to Booty Bay and pick up the flight point there and hearth back.

Comment by noclipPLURbro

note for 19 twinks getting glacial stone -- have a higher level (not even in the same party as you) kill these and then you can loot the chest. easier than dying and running in spirit form to get the drops without xp. there are a couple of other quests like beetle clasps & arctic buckler that also start at lvl 18 so you need to minimize your xp gain any way that you can.

Comment by scissoreyes

such a weird quest
in the previous quest you had to kill ancients with lvl 27-28
now you have to kill slimes lvl 22
never seen a drop in lvl in a questchain before!

Raene's Cleansing

Find the final piece of Dartol's Rod and return to Shael'dryn at the moonwell.

	Iron Pommel (1)

Description

The final piece of the rod was given to the druids of Dor'danil for safekeeping. I have no idea where they hid it. I'm sorry I can't help you more than that.

All I can tell you is to follow the road that leads towards the Barrens. The druids took shelter to the east of that road, but they won't be of much help to you: they were killed recently... it's something I don't like to think about much.

When you find the final piece, bring it to me and I will help you reconstruct the rod.
