Countering the Contagion

Countering the Contagion is a quest for level 45. It is step 8 of 11 in the Fulfilling the Prophecy IV storyline. The quest's turn-in marker is in Broken Shore at 33.7, 49.7. It rewards 7,700 experience and money.

Description

I have tracked the source of the contagion to these very shores. The Burning Legion are using fel spreaders to pump out infectious fel creep, causing anyone who comes into contact with it to become sick.

Take out Ozzuk the Corrupter and his fel spreaders so that the contagion can be contained.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • To the Broken ShoreLevel 45

    We've received word from those fighting on the Broken Shore. It seems the source of the contagion can be pinpointed to a specific island off the western coast. Many of our allies have already been infected. We must work quickly to ensure that the contagion doesn't spread.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Administering AidLevel 45

    Unfortunately, it would seem many of your allies have already taken to fighting on these fel corrupted shores. They will never be able to gain the upper hand in battle while so many are suffering from the contagion. Take the counteragent and use it to administer aid to your allies.
