Players' addons saw Coldridge Valley Mail Delivery (quest 234) give XP and copper again

Players' ForeverDB addons reported quest 234, Coldridge Valley Mail Delivery, handing out 7 copper and 270 experience on 5 November, where the addon had earlier logged no reward at all. Blizzard hasn't posted about it, and the game files don't carry quest rewards.

Corrected 5 November 2026: we first said we couldn't name quest 234 from our data. The Forever client lists it and players' addons have seen it as Coldridge Valley Mail Delivery, so the article now names it.

Player reports, not confirmed by Blizzard. These values are what players' ForeverDB addons saw in the game, not datamined from the client and not from a Blizzard post.

On 5 November, three players (two of them signed in) sent three uploads showing quest 234, Coldridge Valley Mail Delivery, giving 7 copper and 270 experience on completion. The addon had earlier logged 0 copper and 0 experience for the same quest, so the reward now shows where before there was nothing. Our system logged it as a change seen in game and accepted it.

What's in the client

Quest 234 is in the Forever client's quest list, and players' ForeverDB addons have seen it in the game: it's Coldridge Valley Mail Delivery, a level 4 quest in Coldridge Valley (the Dwarf and Gnome starting valley) where you deliver a letter to Grelin Whitebeard. Its quest page has the details. The client files don't carry quest rewards (the server sends them), so the copper and experience can only come from what players saw. In Classic Era the same quest also grants reputation with Ironforge and the Gnomeregan Exiles.

What this might mean

Speculation. The earlier 0 copper and 0 experience reading looks like the quest's reward being switched off, and the new 7 copper and 270 experience reading looks like it being turned back on in a hotfix. We can't tell which from the files, and Blizzard hasn't posted about it.

We'll update this if a new build or a Blizzard post confirms the change.
