I've done this on multiple higher level characters to obtain the [item=25608] (Horde) or [item=25603] (Alliance) for xmog. I was surprised by the lack of information out there on how to start and complete this quest chain, so I put together my strategy for others to use.

For Horde:


  2. The Impotent Leader

  4. Don't Kill the Fat One: I actually really enjoyed the challenge of this quest as a higher level character. We're always killing things but how often are you told NOT to kill something? To complete this quest at level 100 you must do one of the falling: (a.) The easiest way is to recruit a lower level character to help you beat down [npc=18262] without killing him. You can usually find someone running around the area. Offer to help them kill Ogres if they will help you NOT kill [npc=18262] and it will be a win-win. (b.) Or acquire [item=18588], which can be crafted by engineers, but does not require engineering to use. Purchase one from the AH or you can get 5 as a reward from the quest Shizz Work from the chain beginning with Outland Sucks! in Hellfire Peninsula (don't worry, it's short and easy and there are no other prerequisites other than level). Remove all of your armor so there is nothing to proc or add damage. Run up to [npc=18262], toss an [item=18588] at him which should leave a sliver of health, and you're done!

  6. Success!

  8. Because Kilrath is a Coward

  10. Message in a Battle

  12. An Audacious Advance

  14. Diplomatic Measures

  16. Armaments for Deception +++ Ruthless Cunning

  18. Returning the Favor +++ Body of Evidence

  20. Message to Garadar

For Alliance:


  2. Do My Eyes Deceive Me

  4. Not On My Watch!: I actually really enjoyed the challenge of this quest as a higher level character. We're always killing things but how often are you told NOT to kill something?

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.

  • Diplomatic MeasuresNagrand · Level 15-30

    Kilrath sends news of the Boulderfist leader: He is an orc! An ancient orc that passed through the Dark Portal in the time of our fathers and has since returned to his homeland. I wish for you to track down this orc and try to convince him to pull back the Boulderfist ogres.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Vile IdolatryNagrand · Level 15-30

    With our leadership in ruin, we are left open to attacks from all sides. The foul Murkblood tribe could not have picked a better time to attack us! In recent days, we have been subject to no less than 5 assaults from the Broken.
