What to do

StorylineIcecrown, step 52 of 167

Rewards7g 87s 50c, 3,100 XP

Description

Progress is being made. We have a promising array of tactics that should gain us control of the death gate. There will doubtlessly be many casualties, but in the end, we should be able to prevail - barring any interference from the Alliance. Our next focus will be Aldur'thar, the gate of desolation. Fly down and become familiar with it and with the enemies posted there. When you return, I will have your missions prepared.

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.

Basic ChemistryIcecrown · Level 25-30
<Koltira takes the pustulant spines and drains their fluid into a flask.> A little-known quality of the flesh giants... Their spinal fluid interacts with the plague in a very interesting way, turning it into a corrosive acid.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

Chain of CommandIcecrown · Level 25-30
Based on your report, and my knowledge of the Cult, they have an overseer managing the operation of each encampment on the gate. While taking their leaders down will only be a temporary setback, it will at least slow them down and keep them off-balance.
