Description

As we snuck in here I noticed the ogres erecting catapults to destroy our camp. Cork must have anticipated this and gave me several explosives to use, "just in case". Take these explosives and blow up those catapults! Also don't shake them too hard.

Where to go

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Like Ogres to the SlaughterExile's Reach · Level 7-10

    This is worse than I thought. The ogres were counting on us to stage a rescue attempt. It seems that they plan to attack our camp while they near completion of the ritual. We can't let that happen. Crush the ogres! Show them the strength of the Horde!

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Controlling their StonesExile's Reach · Level 7-10

    Warlord Thunderwalker won't last much longer. Soon, his life essence will be completely drained. Gor'groth mentioned that they are keeping him captive through the use of ward stones. I want you to recover these ward stones and bring them here so we can release Thunderwalker.
