Description

Our resources are limited, <class>, but that doesn't mean we can't make some trouble down below. Use the ropes here to sneak down the hillside, then slay the human prison wardens.

Killing a couple scrawny guards won't turn the tide of battle, but imagine the fear and chaos we'll reap as the humans discover the mutilated bodies...

Easy kill X amount quest. The game will go ahead and highlight your targets for you. However fair warning, as you move deeper into the camp, be wary of the level 40 flagged alliance npc (for those on a PVE server or lower than 35).

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Clear the High RoadSouthern Barrens · Level 10-30

    This way, <class>! I see you've discovered the high road. The Alliance hopes to sever our ties with Stonetalon, but they forget that we tauren have hunted across these lands for generations. We know every hillside switchback and game trail from here to Thousand Needles.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Warriors' RedemptionSouthern Barrens · Level 10-30

    Those that surrendered when Honor's Stand fell are no longer worthy of our Horde, <class>. But I'm not giving up on them yet. The prison tower below us is lightly guarded. Let's give those prisoners one final chance to die with honor.
