Quest Log

Bringing Down the Fleet

Bringing Down the Fleet is an Alliance-only quest for level 50. It is step 1 of 17 in The Strike on Zuldazar storyline, the opening step. The quest's turn-in marker is in Zuldazar at 40.8, 70.9. It rewards 850 experience and money.

Description

This is it, <name>. We've weakened the Horde enough to make a daring strike on Zuldazar itself.

Our forces in Zuldazar still remain hidden, thanks to the help of the Dark Iron dwarves. That gives us our chance to strike.

Set sail to Zuldazar. We will be gathering our forces there for a coordinated strike to weaken their harbor defenses.
