RewardsSentinel Hill Breastplate, Sentinel Hill Vest, Sentinel Hill Surcoat, 10g 50s, 4,100 XP

Description

After my tour of duty was over in Grizzly Hills, I returned to Westfall, only to find the land in worse condition than when I left. The price of our war left thousands of citizens homeless. They now migrate here and squat upon the deserted farmhouses and towns of the region. To make matters worse, we are now under attack by the gnolls. The Westfall Brigade needs your help, {name}. Slay the attacking gnolls and recover their orders. Someone is pulling their strings and we need to find out whom!

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.

  • Feeding the Hungry and the HopelessWestfall · Level 5-30

    Yes, I heard about the Furlbrow murders. It is very tragic, but such tragedy is a way of life in Westfall. There are many people here who simply no longer have the means or inclination to keep themselves fed. They have given up hope.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Find Agent KearnenWestfall · Level 5-30

    SI: 7 has been tracking Helix Gearbreaker since he entered Alliance territory two weeks ago. The letter I received from Mathias Shaw explained that he sent an agent by the name of Kearnen to Westfall to shadow Helix. Find Agent Kearnen and you'll find Helix Gearbreaker.

Westfall has 23 steps, from Murder Was The Case That They Gave Me to Return to Sentinel Hill.
