Find the following Temporal Missives from Moira within the Blackrock Depths raid.

A Dark Iron Past requires you to find all Temporal Missives hidden throughout Blackrock Depths by clicking small glowing yellow orbs that appear after bosses or notable trash mobs are defeated.

1

Enter Blackrock Depths

Enter Blackrock Depths on Normal or Heroic difficulty and defeat bosses to trigger the appearance of small glowing yellow orbs. Any player in the instance can click an orb and all players present will receive credit.

2

Collect Wing 1 Missives

In LFR Wing 1 (The Elemental Overlords), click the orbs that appear after defeating Lord Roccor in the Detention Block, High Interrogator Gerstahn in the Twilight's Hammer area, Bael'Gar on The Dark Iron Highway, and Lord Incendius in the Lords of the Firelands area.

3

Collect Wing 2 Missives

In LFR Wing 2 (Shadowforge City), click the orbs after defeating Fineous Darkvire in Shadowforge City, and collect the remaining missives in The Grim Guzzler, Dark Iron Nobles, The Lyceum, Martial Law, The Black Vault, and The Summoning areas.

4

Collect Final Missive

In The Imperial Seat, click the final orb for The Servant Emperor after defeating General Angerforge, and then collect the End of an Empire missive to complete the achievement.

Tips

  • Orbs respawn after approximately 10 seconds, so if you missed one you can click it again shortly after.

  • The Servant Emperor orb in The Imperial Seat only appears after defeating General Angerforge in the second wing on LFR following a bug fix — if the orb is absent, defeating General Angerforge should trigger it.
