Description

Whatever has happened in Southern Barrens is causing some of the quilboar tribes to flee our direction. The displaced Razormane in particular grow desperate, and their attacks grow bolder. I've lost two caravans this week alone! Our warriors at the Crossroads desperately need those supplies, and I'm not about to let the quilboar grow fat off of their misdeeds. Find the missing supply crates and bring them to me. I'd search the quilboar hovel south of here, along the river.

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.

  • The Far Watch OffensiveNorthern Barrens · Level 5-30

    Pigmen running amok right on the border of Durotar? Not on my watch! It is as they say, <name>: The best defense is crushing all who oppose you. One of my scouts followed the quilboar after the last caravan raid, so we know where to strike.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Crossroads Caravan PickupNorthern Barrens · Level 5-30

    <Halga grins disarmingly, holding up an enormous firearm.> Have you ever used one of these, <name>? It's a beast. Hell with a handgrip. Too heavy to use on foot, but perfect when riding at the head of a caravan.
