If for some reason after you dismount on quest completion there are still mobs after you, then you're in up s**t creek without a paddle.

1 you're gonna die
2 questgiver is a long way off
3 questgiver is barricaded so you can't reach him
4 theres zillions of mobs at a higher level than you

Yes that guy Tobias Mismantle died too. And eventually it took a corpse run around to see what my options where. Eventually the guy respawned at the cathedral with the original quest takeable from the finish location. 5 mins to respawn? felt a lot longer and the 2 day 18 hour GM ticket time did not help.

After you get your 30 mobs, don't aggro any more. Thats probably why they came after me after it. Either way this quest can be prone to error.

For those like me who got immediately frustrated after the horse died five seconds in, you can finish the quest on foot.

Head towards the barricaded bridge to the cathedral, then follow the canal all the way to the end. Hang a left and hop over the stone wall around the courtyard. If you hug the wall you shouldn't aggro anything. Then turn-in and finish this nightmare quest.

Description

You don't have to do this, {name}. You've done more than enough already. But if you decide to stay... I'd be a fool to turn you away. My men have fortified their position inside the cathedral and are ready for what comes next. I'm about to head there and take as many of these flea-ridden devils with me as I can. You're welcome to come along for the ride.

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.

  • Time to RegroupGilneas City · Level 1-20

    We've done all we can here. Let King Greymane know we've bought some time. I've a feeling it won't be long 'til the worgen are back in force. We'll need to fall back to Greymane Court to the west, if that's the case. It's the last place we can hold out without being trapped like fish in a barrel.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • By Blood and AshGilneas City · Level 1-20

    The time has come, <name>. If we're going to put a dent in their numbers, the time is now. We have the position. We have the firepower. All that remains to be seen is whether we have the courage... and I sure don't see a coward standing in front of me.
