TheWoWDBThe location on your minimap from the Blizzard quest tracker is a little bit off when you finish marking 3 catapults and move onto the "Meet Krelas at the gate" part. Don't stand on the blue dot waiting for Krelas, keep moving up the road and he'll appear at a portal on the right as you come up to the gate.

I did the catapults out of order, and when I'd finished, Krelas had come & gone. The portal was there, but he was not. I dropped the quest & re-did it in order to complete.
This happened to me too. It was really annoying.

Description
Witch Lord Morkurk is no fool. He has catapults set up throughout the foothills leading into their compound. No matter, I have a way to handle them. Take out the ogres guarding the siege weapons and mark them once they're clear. I'm readying a vortex spell that will handle things from there. We'll meet just outside their gate afterwards.
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.
- The Foot of the Fortress
We've enkindled your forces and the scroll is ready. It's time for phase two - stealing a nexus crystal from a heavily fortified ogre compound. We'll save the scroll to bring in reinforcements in our confrontation with the Gordunni Witch Lord.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- While We're in the Neighborhood
Ah, the hubris of ogres. It always backfires. Morkurk has been using enchanted bracelets to empower his minions with arcane strength. We can disenchant these bracelets into reagents that will no doubt be useful to your arcane sanctum. What do you think about collecting some while we're here?
