CAPS LOCK CRUISE CONTROL FOR OGRE?

and now to be constructive:
It is advisable to go do The Hermit of Witch Hill first, because during that chain you are sent to kill the spiders for their eyes. Also, if you are doing the shady rest quests, during the chain for the shield you're sent to gather venom sac things off the spiders in this area. 3-for-1 mob :)

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Darkmist ExterminationDustwallow Marsh · Level 15-30

    The spiders that occupy Darkmist Cavern to the northwest are another vicious threat to us here. They are nothing the ogres cannot handle, but splitting our attention to them when Theramore's forces lurk nearby is a deadly mistake.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Twilight of the Dawn RunnerDustwallow Marsh · Level 15-30

    The ogres here are useful for little more than crude jokes, sour ale, and bouts of headbutting. When my ship, the Dawn Runner, ran aground, those curs from Theramore made off with my cargo and last surviving crewman.
