dont waste your time farming the mobs discribed,
north east tower in the Ruins of Andorhal for the arrow (worldforged chest called sentinel's cache or soemthing like that)
tower to the left after passing the saw mill in hearthglen for bow (another world forged chest)
ranger lord hawkspear in bloodelf cove by stratholm service entrance (only mob i had to kill and after hours only one to drop prestine skull)
and lastly necromancers cace (to the right of the bridge infront of stratholm main entrance)
so 3 worldforged keys and one rare spawn is all it takes

NATHANOS DOES NOT PROVIDE THIS QUEST. Go in the building behind him, DAMAGED DIARY in the fireplace. First floor.

Right so, here is an updated way to get this done:

The Hood, Skull and Arrow all drop from mobs that are directly near the chest, dont waste time on mobs more than 50 yards away.

For the Bow I used a worldforged as I couldn't find it on mobs.
So Really 1 worldforged and a few mobs.
When he says bloodelf cove he means the ranger place to the north east of service, kill any roaming rangers and they may drop it, pretty quick.
Your only real trouble will be killing the boss near the quest return but you can always sneak it.

Any issue with the Worldforged Caches not being clickable? I just need the bow and the skulls but I can't click those two chests for some reason.

All on A52
The crossbow from the Scarlet Sentinels took about 5-10 mins to get it to drop
The arrows from the Skeletal Warlord took 2 kills to get it to drop
The skull from any mob in Quel'Lithien Lodge area took 3 kills to get it to drop
The hood from the Necromancers took 3 kills to get it to drop.

All in all took longer to get to each place and each mob where they are spread than actually killing.
Did this on a level 70.

Hello!


Here is the CRUCIAL point I havent seen mentioned!!
There is a time limit on the cache! Its 24 hours or its gone!


The Dark Ranger's Bow is not in eastern plaguelands, but western in hearth Glen. You dont need to go up into it, keep sniping the sentinals at the entrance and let them respawn. I got mine relatively fast.

The Arrows are not just any skeleton warlord. This is also in western plaguelands. In the Ruins of Andorhal, there is a tower, inside, a skeleton warlord. Kill him...then go up the ramp behind him to the chest! That is where the arrows are.

For the skull, you need a specific elf. When you go up to the lodge (noted in the above map in with blue ticks) go in, there is a specific dark elf that comes for you. THAT is the one with the skull.

The hood is easy enough. I went to the first yellow tick on the map, let her respawn twice and got it. Better than continuing battling the undead to get to different ones.

It is possible to do this solo. As long as you are above lvl 60.
