Denying Manpower

Denying Manpower is an Alliance-only quest for level 5-30 in Darkshore. It is step 16 of 55 in the Darkshore storyline. The quest's turn-in marker is in Darkshore at 58.9, 19.4. It rewards 3 reward items, 1 reputation reward, 4,100 experience and money.

Description

To the north, the Shatterspear have a war camp where they are constructing their catapults. The camp is guarded by some of their mystics, but I've started receiving reports that there are sightings of orcs and tauren there as well.

I don't want to make any assumptions as to what that suggests, but I do want you to go in and kill them before they can make any further strikes on our Sentinels.

I did this with my level 23 Wogen-Hunter-Marks and pet. I went to the very back of the camp by the seas. my Wow map showed these and Q="War Supplies" to be close together. I did so, as fewer to deal with. Once I started to move into the area of operations, my quest targets came one at a time very quickly. IE...Horde Enforcer, then a Mystic, and the burn "War Supplies", repeat and rinse again! The "War Supplies" were respawning almost right after I burned them so they came quickly. I hope this is a good help! Level up!

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Remnants of the HighborneDarkshore · Level 5-30

    There are several ruins similar to these spread through Darkshore, many of them inhabited by the troubled spirits of the Highborne.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • War SuppliesDarkshore · Level 5-30

    The trolls are building their forces and supplies at the war camp to the north. When they feel they are ready, they will almost certainly launch their attack on Lor'danel from that location. It shouldn't take us long to rout this rabble, but I'm not one for taking unnecessary risks.
