You get this at the same time as http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=12231, and the two should be completed togther. Go to one camp. kill one mob and get the buff http://www.wowhead.com/?spell=47034 or http://www.wowhead.com/?spell=47033, then go the other camp, kill one on your way out, return to the first camp and then after talking to the bear kill the mobs around you.

What to do

StorylineGrizzly Hills, step 69 of 115
RewardsInstigator's Gloves, Shackles of Sanity, Helm of the Furbolg Purifier, 5,150 XP

Description

Not long ago we sent an expedition to the east, where it was attacked by crazed furbolgs. One of the survivors described slaying one of them and its body expelling a dark slimy substance. For thousands of years, the furbolgs in this region have been peaceful. It is possible that there is a link to the furbolgs' behavior and the dark energy we were able to detect earlier. Bring me samples of the furbolgs' blood. You will find them to the east in the Rage Fang Shrine and the Heart's Blood Shrine.

Where to go

Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Tactical ClemencyGrizzly Hills · Level 15-30

    Listen, <name>. I need you to act with discretion and speed. One of Krenna's top sergeants has captured a trapper outcast outside of Silverbrook. Now, if things turn out the way they usually do, the prisoner is going to be executed before the day is over. We can't let that happen.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Ruuna the BlindGrizzly Hills · Level 15-30

    This trapper business has the potential to be more important than we've accounted for. If they're not with the Alliance, there's a good chance they're with the Scourge, which could mean trouble. Our previous efforts might've paid off, though.
