Oil and Irony

Oil and Irony is an Alliance-only quest for level 15-30 in Felwood. It is step 55 of 69 in the Felwood storyline. The quest's turn-in marker is in Felwood at 60.5, 22.4. It rewards 1 reputation reward, 4,100 experience and money.

Description

I plan to use the goblin's greed and pollution against them. Any further despoiling of the land they have already carved here will be worth it to stop their further spread.

Deep within Irontree Cavern, just below us, runs many pipes to pump oil through the ground across the entire clearing. These pipes are attached to a master control pump in the very back of the cavern.

Enter the cavern and sabotage the pump. The ensuing havok will give us opportunity for our final strike.

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Take it to the TreeFelwood · Level 15-30

    Those mangy curs think they can just snoop around my site and get away with it? I'll show them... And what I mean by that is, of course, that YOU will show them. You and the small army of axe-wielding goblin hires I've sent to Talonbranch Glade. The place will be swarming with worgen by now.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Slap and CapFelwood · Level 15-30

    Oh for... not again! If you heard the deputy yelling out there, that means we've got a fullblown oil leak on our hands! It's those filthy worgen again! Listen, it's going to be total chaos out there. Sleep-deprived goblins running around screaming and not knowing what to do.
