Description

Massive ogron have been battering our frontlines, and no matter how many we down, there seem to be more to replace them.

Most of these ogron appear to be coming from the Broken Precipice, deep in western Nagrand. If we're to stand a chance in the coming battles, we need to find a way to remove these ogron from the battlefield.

You must be on this quest in order to complete History of Violence. You can then use the [npc=88064] to give yourself the [spell=175766] buff. This buff lasts for 2 minutes and can be used to break open the [object=239121]. These piles can contain gold, [object=237453], [npc=88058] and pieces needed for the achievement, such as [npc=88092].

Note: Once the daily is completed, even if you haven't turned it in, you can no longer use the jewels.

Edit: So I guess you don't have to be on this quest, you just need to have the bonus objective active. Another quest that caused it to activate for me was Garrison Campaign: The Broken Precipice and I've read it can also be available at random on different days even when not on a quest.
