I found it a bit annoying that the map does not show where they are exactly.

What to do

StorylineMogu at the Gates, step 4 of 9
Rewards23g 40s, 6,800 XP

Description

Okay. We're stuck in the middle of three mogu armies, and Uncle Chen is too hurt to move yet. It's not hopeless though. We have the chance to take out the leaders of these armies. Maybe that will slow them down or distract them long enough for us to get back to the gate! See if you can get out there and take down the biggest, baddest mogu you can find. Those will be the commanders.

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.

  • No Brew Left BehindKun-Lai Summit · Level 50

    My head is... hurting. There can be only one solution. We flew over an abandoned brew caravan. You must go find it, and save that brew! That should help bring me back to full strength. Plus, it would do wonders for the morale of those fighting in the Vale, if we can recover it.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Mogu MassacreKun-Lai Summit · Level 50

    I think this is what my friends would call a "target rich environment." As a nicer way of saying "we're surrounded and probably doomed." You know what this means. We have to kill as many of these mogu as possible! It doesn't matter how you do it, just take them out!
