What to do

StorylineFeralas, step 55 of 68

Description

The mountain giants are our most powerful allies of the forest. They're carved from the land itself. Not many of our enemies are willing to fight off a walking hillside. It only takes a few of these to turn the tide of a battle completely. The mountain giants here have been afflicted by some illness lately, but I've seen a healthy group of them to the southwest.

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.

  • Forces of Nature: Faerie DragonsFeralas · Level 15-30

    You wouldn't know it from looking at them, but the lovely faerie dragons that inhabit this forest can be truly fearsome if trained properly. They can do amazing things to magical energy...absorb it, redirect it, even nullify it entirely.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • It's Not "Ogre" YetFeralas · Level 15-30

    We dealt the Gordunni ogres a large blow at Dire Maul, but we haven't quite finished the job. My scouts have reported a group of them amassed in the hills to the north, gathering for some reason. It's possible they're interested in the Horde settlement nearby, but I don't want to take any chances.
