A mail delivery quest chain in World of Warcraft: Forever rewards players close to level 60 with an 18-slot bag and a speed trinket. Streamer Professor Jokerd highlighted the chain on stream, and a clip of his tip spread on Tuesday, November 10, at 4:42 AM MST. Check out the official post down below:
Players get both items at the end of the chain. There is no choice between the bag and the trinket, so finishing the chain hands out a full 18-slot bag and a movement speed trinket together.
The Mending Communications Quest Chain
The chain has 3 quests and moves between Mount Hyjal and Winterspring:
- Mending Communications (3,100 XP): starts in Mount Hyjal and sends players to Innkeeper Vizzie in Everlook
- Unfrozen Deliveries (4,350 XP): the mail has been ransacked, and players must recover 4 pieces of Missing Mail north of Everlook, in an area with yetis
- Top of the Post (625 XP): bring the recovered mail to Innkeeper Sebelia at the Hyjal summit
The opening quest sets up the story. Its text explains that the forces in Hyjal have been "terribly shorthanded" after the fighting and the retreat from the Nordrassil Lodge, which has left the local mail service in trouble.
Hyjal Postal Satchel And Hyjal Postal Clasp
Both rewards are Bind on Pickup, so they cannot be traded or sold on the Auction House.
- Hyjal Postal Satchel: an 18-slot bag
- Hyjal Postal Clasp: a trinket with +10 Frost Resistance, +10 Nature Resistance and an effect that increases running and swimming speed by 5%
The chain's text includes a nod to the well-known postal motto, with the lines "Neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night..." and "...stays these couriers from the swift completion of their appointed rounds."
The stats listed here come from the item tooltip shown in Professor Jokerd's stream.
How The Satchel Compares To Classic Bags
In the original 2004 version of World of Warcraft, Tailors could make the 14-slot Runecloth Bag and the 16-slot Mooncloth Bag, and the Traveler's Backpack also had 16 slots. The 18-slot Onyxia Hide Backpack came from a quest tied to the Onyxia raid.
That makes the Hyjal Postal Satchel as large as the Onyxia Hide Backpack, without requiring a raid or a crafting profession. The clasp's 5% speed bonus applies to both running and swimming, and its +10 resistances cover 2 of the game's 5 magic schools.
Where Is Mount Hyjal In WoW: Forever?
Mount Hyjal is one of the new zones added for WoW: Forever, alongside the Riverglades, as World of Warcraft: Forever showed off Riverglades and Mount Hyjal, its new zones for levels 30 to 60. Everlook, the goblin town in Winterspring, sits close by, which is why the chain bounces between the 2 areas.
Leveling speed in the new zones has been a topic since WoW: Forever players said open world mobs pay better than dungeons after beta XP cuts. Mending Communications adds 8,075 XP across its 3 steps, with Unfrozen Deliveries worth the largest share at 4,350 XP, and the whole chain is made up of delivery and collection objectives.
Mending Communications is one of more than 1,000 new quests in WoW: Forever, which also adds the Skyborne race and their starting zone, Zephras Isle, along with the new zone Shen'dralas. Instead of traditional servers, Warcraft Forever has no realms, only rulesets.
Have you finished Mending Communications in WoW: Forever, and is the Hyjal Postal Clasp staying on your character at level 60?
