What to do

Travel to Thunderlord Stronghold in the Blade's Edge Mountains and speak with Nekthar.

The quest giver's words

As if the naga and their allies weren't enough, the ogres are extending their reach in the marsh. They've already conquered most of the area to the northwest and there isn't much of a buffer left.

For each one we kill, several more take their place. I'm not sure how long we'll be able to hold Zabra'jin once they decide to attack. Make your way north into the mountains, to the orcish stronghold of Thunderlord Stronghold and let Nekthar know of our plight. Any help he can spare would be most welcome.

Completion

Denjai seeks help? I'd send him reinforcements, but we're spread thin here as it is. We've got trouble of our own with the ogres up here.

When I can, I'll give him what information we have on the local ogre tribes and their tactics. Perhaps if he can survive long enough, we'll be able to launch a two-pronged assault on the vile scum.

The game pays the full figure up to five levels above the quest, then 20 % less for each level more, down to a tenth, and none at the level cap. A bonus of your own (a guild perk, a holiday) comes on top.

Observed, what players here were paid: 2,970 experience (median of 1 run), no money (median of 1 run).

The listed figures and the players here disagree, so both are shown rather than one picked.

  • Experience: players were paid 10% more than the 2,700 listed. An experience bonus (heirlooms, a guild perk) pays more; a character well above the quest's level earns less.

What players recorded

Everything below this line is a different kind of knowledge from everything above it. Above: what the quest is, the same on every realm. Below: what actually happened when people played it, uploaded by them, with the number of runs printed against every figure. It is an observation, not a fact about the quest.

Nobody has completed this quest with telemetry on yet, so there is no timing. Everything below is drawn straight from the 2 recorded attempts the hub has.

How precise this guide is

Early guide Built from 2 runs by 1 player – low confidence. Every upload of this quest sharpens it: the hotspots tighten, the order and the timings settle, and the parts below unlock as the sample grows.

  • Where to go – pick-up, objectives and hand-in available
  • Typical time and objective order – median and middle half needs 3 completed runs (now 0) not yet
  • Tips – what most players do needs 5 runs (now 2) not yet
  • Where players die – death hotspots on the map needs 5 characters from at least 2 different people (now 1 from 1) not yet

The route

An early route: drawn from the first runs and sharper with every upload. Pick-up, hand-in and the objective hotspots are where the quest is, so they are shown from the first run.

Map coordinates are the addon's own 0–1 zone coordinates (Zangarmarsh), origin top-left, x to the right and y downward. Drag the zone map to pan, ctrl/⌘ + scroll or the buttons to zoom; the grid lines are tenths of the zone.
