Doing Your Duty

Quest 3 of 3 in the Amberseed Chain (Finale)
Alliance • Grizzly Hills • Level 73 • Amberpine Lodge
Drink Anderhol's Slider Cider inside the outhouse at [32, 59] and retrieve the Partially Processed Amberseeds.
Do NOT drink the cider before entering the outhouse. It works immediately. Enter the outhouse first, then use the item. Wait a few seconds for the objective to complete, then return to Anderhol. The whole thing takes under a minute. Stay for the turn-in dialogue. You'll understand why.
Vikstone's Classic Expedition
Vikstone will not describe what happened in the outhouse. What he will say is that Anderhol had clearly done this before, and the bucket by the lodge door suddenly made a lot more sense.

“Alright, Night Elf. Here’s the juice. It works immediately, so don’t use it until you’re safely inside the outhouse. Now go get me those seeds!”

-Master Woodsman Anderhol

Quick Facts

 

Walkthrough

Use the Outhouse

  • The outhouse is located at [32, 59], just outside the building where you picked up the quest.
  • Use Anderhol’s Slider Cider (provided quest item) once you’re inside. Do NOT drink it before entering; as Anderhol warns, “It works immediately.”
  • Your character will sit inside the outhouse, which begins shaking violently with loud, unmistakable sound effects. Remain seated until the quest objective completes and you receive the Partially Processed Amberseeds.
  • Return to Anderhol to turn in the quest.

 

All three ring names are scatological puns befitting the quest’s theme. None of these rings are particularly strong for their level, so pick whichever suits your spec.

 

The Comedy

This is one of WotLK’s most beloved quests. A few details worth knowing:

  • Anderhol’s turn-in line: “Everything come out okay?” Delivered completely straight.
  • The real horror: After you turn in, Anderhol and Benjamin Jacobs (the general goods vendor) have a brief exchange. Anderhol says they’ve “retrieved the amberseeds again” and tells Ben he knows the drill. Benjamin’s reply: “I know, I know. Back in the bucket….” The bucket is the same one you ate the seeds from in quest one. Every Alliance player who’s done this chain has eaten seeds that passed through previous adventurers.
  • Sound effects: Your character’s sounds inside the outhouse are replaced with male Night Elf vocalizations regardless of your actual race or gender. Using /lol or /cry while inside also produces Night Elf male sounds.
  • The outhouse shakes hard enough to dismount players flying near it.
  • Horde players who try to interact with the outhouse get an “occupied” message and are locked out.

 

Efficiency Tips

  • This quest completes almost instantly. Don’t overthink it: walk to the outhouse, enter, drink the cider, wait a few seconds, walk back.
  • After turning in, Anderhol offers Take Their Rear! (bear flank collection) along with other quests. Grab everything available before heading out.

“Alright. Here’s the juice.” Anderhol handed me the flask. “It works immediately, so don’t use it until you’re safely inside the outhouse. Now go get me those seeds!”

I will not describe what followed.

Suffice to say: the outhouse. The Slider Cider. A period of time I have chosen to forget.

When I returned, Anderhol examined what I’d brought back with the eye of a man who’d done this before. “Well? Everything come out okay?” He turned one seed over in his palm. “Hmm. Looks like we caught ’em just in time.”

Then he called to a man across the lodge. “Alright, Ben. We’ve retrieved the amberseeds again. You know the drill.”

Benjamin Jacobs sighed. “I know, I know. Back in the bucket.”

Again.

Back in the bucket.

I stared at them both for a long moment. Then I walked out of the lodge without another word.

Some things are best left unexamined.

 

Some experiences are best left in the outhouse. Vikstone’s next assignment has considerably more dignity, and more vrykul, in Thinning the Ranks.
