Rain of Destruction

Rain of Destruction is a Horde-only quest for level 7-30 in Ashenvale. It is step 21 of 42 in the Ashenvale, Horde storyline. The quest's turn-in marker is in Ashenvale at 72.2, 57.6. It rewards 4 reward items, 4,100 experience and money.

Description

Just in time, <class>. The elves have launched another attack!

From the guard towers, use the accursed ore to mark targets for Draaka.

Her projectiles will strike your target and erupt in fel magic flame, destroying any nearby enemies.

There is strong prejudice against the use of demonic magics. Unjustified, but real nonetheless. For this reason, I will transform you into an imp for the duration of the mission to prevent you from being identified.

While this quest is easy, it's unnecessarily long due to the 15 second cooldown on the item you must use, Accursed Ore. I will never understand why Blizzard likes to put long cooldowns on quest items in situations like this. *Click* *twiddle thumbs* *check facebook* *click* *go to wowhead and complain* *click*...

In unrelated information, it's fantastically fun to fly at 310% speed while appearing as an imp (Druid doing Loremaster). His legs and arms are a blur as he swiftly swims through the air.

Unnecessarily long cooldown on the item, oddly limiting range for the targeting circle, limited to two places to fire it off from, long pause between using the item and the meteor falling, mobs that run around so much they will probably run out of the meteor effect range before it goes off because of the long pause... This isn't a quest with the greatest design.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Dirty DeedsAshenvale · Level 7-30

    What Draaka requires is a magnet of sorts - something that her demonic missiles will be drawn to. <Durak grins slyly.> I happen to know of a method that should suit our purposes. You scour the mines for fist-sized chunks of ore, while I prepare a special... enchantment.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • All ApologiesAshenvale · Level 7-30

    This could be the end of me... Perhaps my actions were not thought out as well as they should have been... The good news is that we pushed back an attack that would have otherwise meant the end of Splintertree. Let us pray that Saurfang sees it that way.
