This quest is paired with Leave Every Man Behind. After accepting quest, talk to Nisha, Rexxar's mount. It will fly you around to the quest area. When you land, look to your left, there is a cave. Both quests are completed in there.

Once done, there will be a tunnel right next to Borogahn at the bottom of the cave. Interacting with it "burrows" you all the back to Rexxar, who is now situated where Nisha dropped you off.

BUG:
There is currently a weird bug where if you kill Borogahn before you kill the 8 x Ogron Spinecrushers, the quest bugs out, and you get stuck on the number of Ogron Spinecrushers you killed before killing Borogahn.

SOLUTIONS
The bug goes away rather randomly. A "/console reloadui" did it for me on one character. On another, I just moved up the circular pathway until I started getting credit again.

Description

The ogron here are far from brilliant, but they are more intelligent than the gronn. They're large, and even stronger than they look. Their leader, Borogahn, is especially formidable. Despite several fights, I have not yet managed to kill him. Heed my words, friend. Take caution as you explore their lair. Nisha is ready to move. Ask her to take you to the mouth of the cave, and I'm sure she would be happy to.

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.

  • Leave Every Soldier BehindGorgrond · Level 15-40

    The ogron possess something of value to the Iron Horde. I am sure they're unaware, likely just bored and in need of something to torture. We could simply leave them to their fate, but we should follow up on this clue.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Eye in the SkyGorgrond · Level 15-40

    The notes you recovered tell of a device capable of subjugating even a magnaron. Ancient legends speak of such artifacts, crafted by the worldbuilders to keep these creatures in check. I had discounted them as silly stories, but if they are true... <name>, Draenor is doomed.

The storyline at a glance

In the Land of Giants has 35 steps, from The Razorbloom to Chains of Iron.
