This is a ridiculously good farming area. As a 78-80 you can kill the mobs in 2-3 seconds if you are geared up. I'm a 78 warrior in Savage Saronite specced for fury dual wielding Saronite Mind Crushers with Titan's grip. I'm sure AOE characters would do even better. Many of the mobs are already health depleted because they are fighting greens for the Mopping Up quest. I ran around and killed them for an hour and got 60 Gold, four 74 level greens, 20 tattered cloth (50 silver each), about 15 pieces of 1-4GP grey items (ice shoulders, axes, etc), 70 Frostweave cloth and about 20 salted venison. I forgot to add that I also got 8 runic healing potions.

Description

I couldn't help but overhear what you were talking to the sergeant about. That doesn't change the fact that we still have a job to do here. While you're out there, do you think you could help us to put some of those followers of Sseratus out of their misery?

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.

    <The sergeant quickly reads through the orders you've handed him, a frown coming over his face.> Look, lad, I'd love to just up and leave, but take a look out there. All of my people are fighting. Tell you what, you've come this far, you think you're up to doing me a small favor?

After this quest
