Pre-req for this quest http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=10001

I actually completed this quest without attacking him at all. When I arrived at Sal'salabim, 2 alliance were already killing him. When they got him down to low health, he went back to his spot with a quest complete message over his head. I guess you just have to be in the area when he gets 'subdued'

Description

Take the blueprints and travel to Shattrath City in the Terokkar Forest. Once at Shattrath, go to the Lower City and look for a mo'arg by the name Sal'salabim. He'll probably be at the bar, drinking away his sorrows. By the way, you may need to convince him to lend his assistance. Try to approach him with patience and understanding. If that does not work, use your fists.

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.
