Description

The number of injured soldiers rises with each passing day. They are being stricken by some type of toxin that we have never before seen. Whatever it is that these Nerubians hold within their venom glands is lethal and incurable! So far we've only been able to slow down the poison flowing through the victim's bodies. We must devise a cure! Venture northwest to the valley outside of the Vanguard and slay the Forgotten Depths Nerubians. Recover their venom glands and bring them to me.

Where to go

Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Honor Above All ElseIcecrown · Level 25-30

    Long has been the path to our salvation, young <class>. We have fought across continents, worlds even, to reach this point. Now we face our greatest challenge: the destruction of the Lich King and his Scourge. Alas, we fight this battle divided.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Defending The VanguardIcecrown · Level 25-30

    We can't keep this pace up, lad. Once the breach was blown, the floodgates opened up. The Scourge have been pourin' through ever since with no end in sight! We need every able bodied man and woman to help keep the tide of evil at bay. Get out there and do yer share, friend.
