Outside Assistance

Outside Assistance is a quest for level 25-30 in Netherstorm. It is step 11 of 103 in the Netherstorm storyline. The quest's turn-in marker is in Netherstorm at 34.8, 38.3. It rewards 1 reputation reward and 1,050 experience.

Description

The Sunfury briefings support the theory that Kael'thas has been receiving outside help in constructing and running these manaforges. Who this is remains a bit of a mystery, though we're likely to find out in Manaforge Ara.

I've sent a group of my men to scout the surrounding area. Go to Tuluman's Landing, north of here, and speak to Kaylaan. See what he's discovered at Manaforge Ara. Find out who is assisting the Sunfury army and take care of them.

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.

  • Sunfury BriefingsNetherstorm · Level 25-30

    Something about these manaforges has been bothering me, <name>. Naaru technology is incredibly advanced; it should've taken Kael'thas years to even begin to understand it.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • A Dark PactNetherstorm · Level 25-30

    We've been so blind, <name>, that the alliance of two of our most dangerous enemies went completely unnoticed. I wouldn't be surprised if the Scryers had something to do with hiding this information from us, but we must now face the reality.
