Enhanced Combat Tactics (ID 59254)

Enhanced Combat Tactics is a quest for level 1-5 in Exile's Reach. It is step 8 of 70 in The Missing Expedition storyline. The quest's turn-in marker is in Exile's Reach at 58.1, 74.5. It rewards 750 experience and money.

Description

Alaria says that the quilboar kidnapped other members of her expedition.

Chances are we'll have to brave the quilboar's den. That's no small feat. They are far more aggressive and intelligent than the murlocs you faced earlier.

I need to make sure I'm not sending you to your death. We're going to have one last sparring session.

I had my sound turned off at the time of doing this quest, so those of you who are in the same boat as me: As a paladin who equipped full BoA's and a 2H weapon right out the gate, the quest was asking to perform Shield of the Righteous, which required you to use a shield. So just slap your shield and 1H back on, perform your 3 spells, and quest complete. 馃
