Harrying the Hunters

Harrying the Hunters is a quest for level 30-35 in Mount Hyjal. It is step 13 of 118 in the Mount Hyjal storyline. The quest's turn-in marker is in Mount Hyjal at 35.7, 19.4. It rewards 1 reputation reward, 4,800 experience and money.

Description

Twilight's Hammer has revealed itself as more than a mere cult. They're a war machine - a swarm of locusts moving up the mountain, devouring anything in their way.

The parts of the forest they're not setting ablaze are being scoured of life in order to feed the mortal cultists.

We've got to put a stop to the hunters canvassing Wolf's Run, not only to preserve what wildlife remains but to force the cult to march on empty stomachs. Look south of here, as well as up the road to the east.

IMPORTANT INFO:


  2. End of the Supply Line and Harrying the Hunters can be done by both factions, but "The Voice of..." followup requrement is different.

  4. Goldrinn's Ferocity and Howling Mad allows other players to share you quests next on line, but Lycanthoth the Corruptor{H} will let you be in same phase as npc.

  6. Into the Maw!{A2;H;H2}. There are 2Alliance and 2Horde variants, for each faction one from wolf spirit and one backup from main quest guy in Shrine of Goldrinn.

  8. Whole Firelands Forgeworks(8) chain doesn't have any pre-quests. You can get first time to Hyjal and ask warlock to summon you there and do the quests. However Lightning in a Bottle{H} is needed to use the standart teleport.
