The Platinum Discs and The Hidden Chamber: Uldaman quest guide (Classic Era baseline)

Community-reported, not yet confirmed by Blizzard.

Two of Uldaman's best quest chains run through the same titan vaults. Alliance players start with The Lost Dwarves from Prospector Stormpike in Ironforge, find Baelog inside the dungeon, and open the Chamber of Khaz'mul for The Hidden Chamber, which lets Ironaya out. Both factions can then do The Platinum Discs in the treasure room behind the last boss, carry a miniature copy home, and trade a reward voucher for potions and a 14-slot bag. Forever changes: see the notes below.

For the full one-table list of every Uldaman quest, see Uldaman quests. For bosses and loot, see the Uldaman dungeon guide.

On sharing, The Lost Dwarves and The Hidden Chamber is listed as sharable, and every Platinum Discs step as not sharable, so each player clicks the discs for themselves. Also shows "Portents of Uldum" as the next step after the voucher (Alliance, Horde), which sends you to Historian Karnik in Ironforge or Nara Wildmane in Thunder Bluff. That later Tanaris chain isn't covered here.

Part 1: The Lost Dwarves and The Hidden Chamber (Alliance)

Community-reported, not yet confirmed by Blizzard.

  1. Ironforge. Take The Lost Dwarves from Prospector Stormpike in the Hall of Explorers (74.4, 12.0). His text says Baelog led a small band of dwarves deep into the dig site before the troggs overran it.
  2. Find Baelog. Baelog is a level 41 elite inside Uldaman. Commenters put him in a cave off the south side of the first halls, called Dig Two, at the top of a ramp (commenter notes, ). A commenter also notes The Lost Dwarves is a breadcrumb: if you've already accepted The Hidden Chamber, you can't finish it.
  3. Take The Hidden Chamber. Baelog explains the Chamber of Khaz'mul is "behind a huge, locked door", and that his journal on the table nearby says how to open it. The objective is to read Baelog's Journal, explore the chamber, then report to Stormpike.
  4. Open the chamber. Use the staff in the Map Room. Commenters describe a beam of light, a door opening and Ironaya walking out, and advise clearing the room first (commenter notes, ). Only one player in the group needs the staff; commenters say only one medallion and one shaft can be in a party at once ().
  5. Explore and hand in. Enter the chamber for the exploration credit, then go back to Stormpike in Ironforge and choose your reward.

Ironaya

Community-reported, not yet confirmed by Blizzard.

Ironaya is a level 40 elite giant. The quest only asks you to explore the chamber, but she comes out when it opens, so plan to fight her. Our Uldaman guide lists drop data, Stoneweaver Leggings (38%), Ironaya's Bracers (38%) and Ironshod Bludgeon (20%) among her drops.

Part 2: The Platinum Discs (both factions)

Community-reported, not yet confirmed by Blizzard.

  1. Kill Archaedas. The Discs of Norgannon sit in the treasure room behind Archaedas, Uldaman's level 47 elite final boss (location from commenters,; the quest text calls it a "treasure chamber").
  2. Touch the discs. That starts The Platinum Discs (2278) and calls up a stone watcher, the Lore Keeper of Norgannon.
  3. Talk all the way through. The objective is "Learn what lore that the stone watcher has to offer". Commenters say you click through every page of the conversation (commenter notes).
  4. Activate the discs again. This completes 2278 (4,200 XP). Commenters say clicking again also gives you the follow-up, which provides the Miniature Platinum Discs. Do this before anyone leaves; one commenter nearly lost the quest by porting out first ().
  5. Alliance: take the miniature discs to High Explorer Magellas, Ironforge 69.6, 18.6 (5,250 XP, +150 Ironforge). He gives you a Reward Voucher for Dinita Stonemantle <Vault Administrator>, Vault of Ironforge 33.8, 60.2.
  6. Horde: take them to Sage Truthseeker, Thunder Bluff 34.6, 47.2 (5,250 XP, +150 Thunder Bluff). He sends you with the voucher to Bena Winterhoof, the Thunder Bluff alchemy trainer, at 46.8, 33.6.

Rewards (Classic Era baseline)

Community-reported, not yet confirmed by Blizzard.

Quest Reward
The Hidden Chamber Choose one: Dwarven Charge (uncommon two-hand axe, 72–109, speed 2.90, 31.21 DPS, +12 Strength, +11 Stamina) or Explorer's League Lodestar (uncommon held in off-hand, +7 Stamina, +6 Spirit)
The Platinum Discs voucher (2439 / 2440) Choose one: Superior Healing Potion or Greater Mana Potion. You also receive the Thawpelt Sack (14-slot bag, Unique, Binds when picked up)
The other steps XP and reputation only

Both Hidden Chamber items are item level 42 and Binds when picked up. The Thawpelt Sack is the prize for most players: a 14-slot bag in the mid-40s is a real upgrade. Our item pages: Dwarven Charge, Explorer's League Lodestar.

Map pins: coordinates. The outlines are decorative. Baelog, Ironaya, Archaedas and the discs aren't pinned, because they're inside the instance.

FAQ

Can Horde do The Hidden Chamber? No. The Lost Dwarves and The Hidden Chamber are Alliance only. Horde can still do The Platinum Discs.

Do I have to kill Ironaya? The objective only says to explore the chamber. She comes out when the door opens, though, so in practice you fight her.

I talked to the stone watcher. Why isn't the quest done? Activate the discs a second time. That completes 2278 and gives you the follow-up with the miniature discs.

Where's Dinita Stonemantle? In the Vault of Ironforge, the bank, at 33.8, 60.2.
