Description

You were taking too long, so I took the liberty to scout out the barrows in advance. The Legion has set up portals, pulling more and more demons through them by the second. We need to shut them down so we can save Goldrinn! I'm not sure my usual methods are going to do much to take them down, but I think you can do it! I think some nice vine-work is in order.

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.

  • Lone WolfLevel 45

    My eyes and ears fly across Azeroth, bringing me back news of many things. My ally Goldrinn took to the barrows of Moonglade in mourning upon the death of Varian Wrynn. He has been untouched in the dream... until now.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Let Sleeping Dogs LieLevel 45

    You see those big eredar guys? That's the barrow that Goldrinn is in! I don't know what the Legion is doing to him in there, but I'm sure we don't want them to succeed. Let's get in there and save Goldrinn!
