On the Brink (Alliance)

On the Brink is an Alliance-only quest for level 5-30 in Darkshore. It is step 19 of 55 in the Darkshore storyline. The quest's turn-in marker is in Darkshore at 58.9, 19.5. It rewards 1 reputation reward, 4,100 experience and money.

Description

I've already been working on something for breaking down their protective wards. With a focus based in their power and a bit of druidic magic, we should be able to breach their shields.

Find their shaman to the east and southeast and recover several of their amulets. I will prepare them and imbue an arrow that you can deliver to Sandrya Moonfall for the attack.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Strategic StrikesDarkshore · Level 5-30

    Striking at the head of the beast doesn't work if there's another head to replace it. Before we can kill their leader, we need to kill the subleaders that may try to step up. Right now, they are not as well defended, and you should be able to best them without much support.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • The Front LineDarkshore · Level 5-30

    Their forces are weakened, their supplies destroyed, and their subleaders are dead. It is time for us to take this fight to their home, and their leader. I'm admittedly still in the dark as to what spurred their sudden aggression, but perhaps we will find some answers on their doorstep.
