Blackfathom Deeps is an instance on the Zoram Strand of Ashenvale in the Northwest. The level range for mobs in the instance is 20-29. A recommended level range for this group would be 25-30.

Quests

There are two class, four Alliance, three Horde and one shared quests that involve Blackfathom Deeps.

Class quests

Seeking the Kor Gem
Rewards: Verigan's Fist
One is a part of a Paladin class quest series The Test of Righteousness, this is but a small step of the quest. You can get the gem from any of the naga inside or outside the instance.

The Orb of Soran'ruk
Reward: Orb of Soran'ruk or Staff of Soran'ruk This one is a warlock class quest. Just any of the twilight hammer cultists can drop it. They are about halfway into the instance.

Alliance quests

Ironforge
Just one quest from Ironforge in the Forlorn Cavern section.
Knowledge in the Deeps
Rewards: Sustaining Ring
Where is the chest exactly? I've had conflicting results from near the turtle, to after the hydra. - Taco

Darnassus
Twilight Falls
Reward: Nimbus Boots or Heartwood Girdle
Seems to start from an item, not sure where the item drops from thott. Need help on this one - Taco

Auberdine
Researching the Corruption
Reward: Prelacy Cape or Beetle Clasps
The brain stems are easy to acquire from Naga and Satyrs both inside and outside the instance.

Blackfathom Deeps
Blackfathom Villainy
Reward: Arctic Buckler or Gravestone Scepter
This quest is obtainned from an NPC that is in a room through an underwater passage to the NE from Ghamoo-ra.

Horde quests

Zoram Strand
Essence of Aku'Mai
This quest doesn't seem to be part of a quest line any longer. The Saphires are crystals on the walls of the cave before you get to the instance.

Allegiance to the Old Gods
This quest line starts as a random drop from blackfathom (possibly only outside the instance, not sure) of a damp note. After returning the note you get a quest to kill someone inside the instance.

Amongst the Ruins
The fathom core is found underwater near the twilight ruins not far from Ol' Serrakis. Be prepared because when clicking it a boss will spawn. It seems to have a level 25 requirement as well.

Blackfathom Deeps
Baron Aquanis
Rewards: Thott doesn't have rewards at this time, however it gives an 18dps or so 1H Sword or a Held in hand item with 7int. Will try to get names and links later. - Taco
The baron spawns after doing the Fathom Core and drops an item to start this quest.

Blackfathom Villainy
Reward: Arctic Buckler or Gravestone Scepter
This quest is obtainned from an NPC that is in a room through an underwater passage to the NE from Ghamoo-ra.
