The time has come for us to face Goc, the master of the Bladespire ogres. It is also time that I take a hand in events, to see the last of the gronn's life.

Take my signet ring. When you come to the Altar of Goc, use it, and I will come to join you.

When you summon Goc there is a friendly NPC to help you. He will end up tanking Goc for you but you cant heal him. Goc is Level 70 and has around 130k HP so you need to burn him down before he kills the friendly NPC.

We didn't need 3 people though, I was a 67 Mage grouped with a 66 Pally and we were able to complete this.

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Massacre at Gruul's LairBlade's Edge Mountains · Level 20-30

    You've proven yourself resourceful, and now I think I'm going to put you to personal use in my own fight against Gruul and his sons. The Bladespire clan are the favored of the gronn, and while you may have thinned out their numbers elsewhere, you haven't yet dealt with their strongest.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • The Spirits Have VoicesBlade's Edge Mountains · Level 20-30

    <name>, now that you can see me, there is something you must tell Rexxar. I know that he seeks his people, and I know where they are. The Mok'Nathal, as they are known, have a village to the east beyond the Razor Ridge. Go, give Rexxar this news.
