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.

  • Damned IntrudersLevel 50-60

    Before you depart... we are in desperate need of reinforcements. These reports must reach Commander Gregor. But if you would help us thin the Scourge's numbers first, it would grant us a much needed reprieve.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • A Message from IcecrownLevel 50-60

    We received word from our forces in Northrend. Justicar Trueheart requests our immediate assistance. As you are an experienced <class>, I ask that you answer the call. The urgency of this summons cannot be ignored, even if it means braving the terrors of Icecrown itself.
