Joint Rescue Operation

Joint Rescue Operation is a quest for level 70 in Ohn'ahran Plains. It is step 9 of 20 in the Old Hatreds storyline. The quest's turn-in marker is in Ohn'ahran Plains at 80.9, 57.6. It rewards 9,500 experience and money.

Description

Tomul says the attacks on the Windtotem were carried out by an enemy clan known as the Nokhud.

Just down this road is their closest outpost, and the most likely location where tauren prisoners would be taken.

The task is simple--rescue the captives. We do not know how many there are, or how long they have been here, so we must hurry.

I speak from experience when I say centaur do not keep their captives for long.

Where to go

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Pinewood TrailOhn'ahran Plains · Level 70

    If Bovan is not dead, and he is not here, then either he is still out there... or he has been captured. Given Tomul's message, I fear it's the latter. The Windtotem are safe for now, but with an attack possible at any moment, they can't spare any braves to go after Bovan.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • A Proper Shikaar Send-OffOhn'ahran Plains · Level 70

    We're here to rescue the captive tauren, but I have a personal request. The place we are assaulting was once my home. The Nokhud took over after a surprise attack during the civil war. Take these Shikaar banners. When you kill a Nokhud or one of their allies, plant a banner on their corpse.
