Fields of Blood

Fields of Blood is an Alliance-only quest for level 10-30 in Southern Barrens. It is step 42 of 89 in the Southern Barrens storyline. The quest's turn-in marker is in Southern Barrens at 49.9, 49.7. It rewards 1 reputation reward, 4,100 experience and money.

Description

The Horde has taken to calling this region the "Fields of Blood." It's an apt name: these reeds run red with the blood of some of my best men.

I've sent out recon patrols to crush the quilboar and report on the Horde troop movements, but not all of them return. They could use your support out there.

Patrol the fields and seek out the Desolation Grunts that are causing us so much grief. Do not expect them to surrender; their Warchief has instructed them to fight to the death.

Where to go

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Marching On Our StomachsSouthern Barrens · Level 10-30

    It's true what they say: An army marches on its stomach. And we've been marching a long way. I'm thinking if we barbecue up a few of those giant lumbering stormsnouts, we'll have enough meat to feed us for weeks. Stormsnouts are big and slow, so they should be easy to kill. Except...

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • A Line in the DirtSouthern Barrens · Level 10-30

    Strategically, control of a region requires constant observation. See here on this map - I've identified a number of strategic hills, similar to this one, that the Alliance must acquire if we are to keep the enemy under our thumb. My scouts have already marked their location on the field.
