The highest voted Wowhead comments for this page. They are community notes, not TheWoWDB comments.
This kind of roadblock needs to be made obvious IN THE GAME. Blizzard should not have to tell people "go to WoWhead" to figure out things as simple as this.
UPDATE: It appears that level 118 is not a hard requirement, as long as you can do the necessary prerequisite quests. Finding a chest in the open world gives you "The War Cache" quest, which is likely the one you are missing if you've completed all the legendary quests you can find around Boralus before you hit level 118.
You must be at least level 118 to complete this quest.PLEASE UPVOTE!
You can pick it up at level 114, but you won't be able to do the necessary prerequisites in Zuldazar until you are level 118. Once you are high enough level, new campaign quests will appear on Wind's Redemption boat that take you to Zuldazar for about 12-15 more quests, after which you will return to the Wind's Redemption and be able to complete the follower quests. Once you have the followers you need, you'll be able to choose a path for "Adapting Our Tactics".

Description
For our best chance to win this war, we must continue to learn and adapt new strategies. There are opportunities for advancement all around us, but they require dedication and perseverance. I've collected a list of potential research opportunities for you to review. Any one of these might feel small on its own, but together they might just be all the advantage we need. Let me know which ones you would like us to pursue.
