TheWoWDBFor Hunters: Dont use your pets to break the cocoons, you need to melee them yourself to get anything out of them. I wasted 15mins myself breaking them with my pet and nothing.

You can see the contents of the cocoon. If you look near the base and it's blue. It will contain a troll, if there is noting but cocoon it will be the npc you're intended to rescue.
Quite happily freeing footmen with my paladin's Exorcism. All this talk of normal/special attacks is nonsense. Also I hear that if you're standing on your head during a monsoon whilst a sloth licks your face you are guaranteed a footman every time.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Leave No One Behind
Ahh, good. They sent someone. Listen, <race>. We need a hand here. Our forces were pushed back and we've lost Drak'Sotra to the Scourge. Where they came from is anyone's guess.... The point is, we need every man we can get here, and some of our best have yet to return from battle.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Death to the Necromagi
When the trolls brought down Kolramas, it crashed next to us to the southeast. Unfortunately the crash did not destroy all of the Scourge within. Now they're raising our men from the dead and using them against us! This will not be allowed to continue.
