Dropping Bombs (Horde)

Dropping Bombs is a Horde-only quest for level 20-40 in Talador. It is step 7 of 27 in the Establishing your Outpost storyline. The quest's turn-in marker is in Talador at 68.8, 70.5. It rewards 5,450 experience and money.

Description

The Gordunni have only a single path to their fortress and it is well-defended from a large attack.

Thankfully they wont be expecting just the two of us to be attempting to break in.

This is a great opportunity to take out their defenses and get some target practice for our artillery gunners back at the arsenal.

Take these smoke grenades and use it to call in an artillery strike on their catapults as we head up.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Going to the GordunniTalador · Level 20-40

    We have a good supply of jovite in the arsenal now but there just isn't enough of the material in the mine to keep us in stock for long. Down south of here there's a mountain that's just full of the stuff but there's one problem; Ogres!

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Supply RecoveryTalador · Level 20-40

    We seem to have arrived at just the right time! The Gordunni have been enchanting armaments for the Iron Horde and it looks like they haven't picked up the latest shipment. We could put that gear to far better use! Lets go hunt down their shipping containers.
