Stay away from the sunken guard hut on the eastern side of Stonard near the gate. Although the area is instanced, there is a regular town guard there who is PVP flagged and seems to be trapped under the ground. He will one shot you with his bow.

I was trying to figure out who was shooting me for the longest time until I finally saw an image of a town guard glitching/clipping under the ground beneath the sunken hut. I think he killed me about 5 times. Be wary!

Was going to do this quest, going to loot one of them, boxes glimmering and all, I click one of them and my character bows down to loot but I'm not getting anything. Tried to relog but that didn't help the case. Deleted the quest and picked it up again and that didn't help either. So, what is wrong?

I also tried looting other boxes but it was the same thing on them. Just uncompleteable for me.

After I killed all the 6 Stonard Defenders it was possible for me to loot them.

That is every comment on this page.

Description

We may not be flattening Stonard into dust, but I don't want to have to go in there a second time. I want you to gather any supplies you see in the town while you're there. Without food, they won't have any fighters after more than a day. There should be crates scattered all over town.

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.

  • Assault on StonardSwamp of Sorrows · Level 15-30

    This is it, <name>. We've made our final push into Stonard itself. I shouldn't have to remind anyone, but I'll say it anyway: We're not orcs, and we're not going to become them out of revenge or spite. Stonard will not be burned to the ground for us to dance on the ashes. No, I want this done right.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Orcs and HumansSwamp of Sorrows · Level 15-30

    War rages in the swamp, <name>. Vicious humans have settled north of the city and brought an army to our doorstep. There is nothing in this swamp for them. Their sole reason for coming here is to attack us, unprovoked. We will not give them the pleasure of victory!
