Rogue Class Quest Unlocks

Raise Lockpicking before the poison chain, delay the tower until the class has a fuller escape kit, and leave when the scripted route stops behaving.

      Poisons and Thistle Tea

      The faction chain opens the Poisons skill, the first Instant Poison recipe, and Recipe: Thistle Tea. The tower step expects Rogue tools and enough Lockpicking to finish the job.

        Klaven's Tower is a level-24 quest step in Westfall. Pickpocket supplies the key and the Duskwood Chest sits behind Klaven Mortwake.

        Failure state
        The chest is opened without a clean tower exit, or Lockpicking is still below 75 after Klaven and nearby Defias control the route down.
        Safe exit
        Use Sap and Stealth for the intended chest route. If the tower or ground exit changes before the chest opens, leave through the last cleared floor and return later.

        Travel risk
        The chain uses two flares and the Shattered Salute before the Barrens tower, then sends the poisoned Rogue from Orgrimmar toward Tarren Mill without Stealth.

        Failure state
        Taskmaster Fizzule remains hostile after an incorrect signal, or the tower and poisoned road trip begin without a clean route and enough recovery.
        Safe exit
        Leave if Fizzule stays hostile. After the tower, take the zeppelin and signed road through Silverpine toward Tarren Mill. Avoid shortcuts while the poison blocks Stealth.

Review boundary

This atlas covers the Poisons and Thistle Tea chain only. Lockpicking practice and Alliance poison aftercare remain separate review decisions.
