The stalks glow at their base where they connect to the ground rather than along their entire length, so its possible to miss them if you are looking afar. They stand twice as tall as the average Pandarian. If one is lucky, you may also find them lying on the ground as well.

Description

My men are malnourished, injured, and exhausted, but they are Horde. Every one will fight to their dying breath. As our new ally, we will stand by you when the time comes, but we would stand stronger with weapons. I have my men out gathering bamboo stalks to fashion into spears. If you can spare the effort, we could use the extra pair of capable hands.

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.

  • Preying on the PredatorsThe Wandering Isle · Level 1-20

    The forest has become far more dangerous ever since Shen-zin Su began shaking. The tigers are agitated and have begun attacking the refugees, and on occasion, me as well. If these injured and weak survivors are to make it to safety here at the hut, we need to help clear the forest for them.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Wrecking the WreckThe Wandering Isle · Level 1-20

    To dislodge the alliance ship, we need to find our engineer. He parted ways with us when we were escaping the wreckage. You should be able to find him somewhere in the western forest. Tell him Korga sent you and he'll get in line to help.
