Slash and Burn

Slash and Burn is a quest for level 30-35 in Mount Hyjal. It is step 109 of 118 in the Mount Hyjal storyline. The quest's turn-in marker is in Mount Hyjal at 72.1, 74.0. It rewards 1 reputation reward, 6,000 experience and money.

Description

Victory is possible, <name>.

This portal is not just a means of bringing back Cenarius through the dream. Think about it, <name>. Once a gateway through the Emerald Dream is open, our forces can use them to move freely from Moonglade, Nordrassil, and even Wyrmrest, to this strategic location.

All Ysera needs is time. It'll be up to you to keep the Twilight's Hammer forces in Darkwhisper Gorge from pulling together and attacking us from the east.

Take one of the emerald drakes and hit them hard, <name>.

As someone who hates to fight on dragonback, I found an easy way to kill the dragons in flight. Get above the purple Stormwalkers, target one, and dive down on them using the second control which grabs the target and kills it in one hit. Then use the acid bombs on the mobs in each of the enemy camps. Once I figured it out it took about 5 minutes to complete.

Sadly, it seems that sometimes (happened 1 out of 1 times for me, need more data points!) the cutscene that appears after this quest completes will have camera glitches that prevent you from viewing all the dialogue until after it's over (as well as some of the action). Has this happened to anybody else? In order to reproduce it I'd need to take another character all the way through Hyjal and I'd like to concentrate on my main first.

  • Twilight RiotMount Hyjal · Level 30-35

    I thank you for freeing me. Let us take advantage of the distraction you've created and get out of here. We must hurry before the cultists catch on. Meet me again when we've left this place.

After this quest
