What! Those guys are Shadow Council?!

<name>, you have to go back in there and waste them! I want you to take out their leader and as many of their executioners and summoners as you can.

Good luck, <class>!

This quest was a bit challenging compared to most. The close proximity of mobs, the constant patrols, and the somewhat quick respawn times here can cause you to become overwhelmed rather quickly. I had to corpse hop into the building that Shadowmaster Grieve was in due to the amount of mobs constantly in front of the entrance. Might be a good idea to bring a buddy along for this one.

Quest is a bit tricky, I soloed as a 63 Arms Warrior but I had to ghost walk behind Grieve. It was funny, I killed him and he respawned in less than a minute, litterally. I was just fighting the warlock near him and he just reapeared, so be careful and be hasty once hes dead.

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Who Are They?Terokkar Forest · Level 15-30

    I don't know who they are, but I know they're hostile! I'm going to give you a disguise, and I want you to go in there and speak with three of them that I've observed as being 'chatty'. Talk with the initiate, the laborer, and the advisor.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Strange EnergyTerokkar Forest · Level 15-30

    Something strange has changed the teromoths of the thicket. Where once there was a diversity of life in there, now only the teromoths remain. And while before they were at peace, now they are agitated and will not hesitate to attack you should you get close.
