Speak with Thrall for this quest.

Head into the Go’Shek Farm and start killing any of the Kobold Pillager and Ogre Destroyer for their poorly written plans, which is either making fun of them for not being able to write that well, or for making terrible plans to begin with.

I believe the plans are a 100% drop rate, but if not, then it’s a pretty darn high drop rate.

You might also be able to find a Stuck Ogre. Apparently they’re too large to fit through a household doorway and get stuck. If you help pull them out, they’ll give you one of their plans as a thanks.

After acquiring all seven, get back with Thrall.

That is every comment on this page.

Description

The kobolds and ogres here seem to be carrying some sort of plan for their attack. I don't think they're particularly well written, so I'll need several of them to figure out what the ogres are planning.

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.

  • My Beautiful PumpkinsLevel 10-90

    The kobolds and ogres appeared out of nowhere and kicked us out of the farm! I thought this was some Alliance plot until you all showed up. Maybe the Alliance is here to help us after all. You have to help me get my precious pumpkins back. I've spent the entire harvest cultivating them!

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Farmer's NemesisLevel 10-90

    Farmer Bruvk mentioned an ogre named Runk was leading the group here. These creatures won't leave this place as long as that ogre is commanding them.
