TheWoWDBThe easiest way to do this quest is just to jump between the large groups. The lighting ball is less effective I found. Also, best vehicle quest in game.

This was one of the most fun quests in Draenor. Leaping down on people, throwing lightning everywhere, showing Orgrim that you don't screw with Vol'jin's Horde!
Shame it's not a daily.
this quest is currently bugged. you still get xp while killing the mobs i managed to get half way through 95 to 96 in about 2 mins
