Description

We won't be able to defeat Kruul alone. Once the portal has stabilized I will send word so we can bring the Highlord to justice. In the meantime, you should inform the Kirin Tor of Vazuun's death - and Kruul's return.

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.

  • Between WorldsLevel 45

    Kruul boasts damnation, but his power has not yet fully manifested. His minions have taken his heart to hasten his rebirth in the nether. We do not have much time. Go to the place of Kruul's fall at the Stair of Destiny in desolate Outland, where the link to his soul is strongest.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • A Gift From the SixLevel 45

    <name>, without you some of the Legion's strongest agents would still be roaming Azeroth, threatening to undermine all that we've accomplished in this war. Such a deed merits more than mere recognition.
