What to do

StorylineBlade's Edge Mountains, step 8 of 95

Description

To the north of the Bloodmaul clan lies a threat more grave: Bladespire Hold. The Bladespire ogres are the strongest clan in the mountains, having the favor of the gronn known as Gruul the Dragonkiller, and his seven sons. Now that we've dealt with winnowing the Bloodmaul, it is time to turn our eye upon their rivals. From Bloodmaul Hold head north through the ravine until you come to Bladespire Hold and the Bladespire Grounds. Slay as many of the Bladespire ogres therein as you can.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Strange BrewBlade's Edge Mountains · Level 20-30

    If I'm going to start this vacation out right, then I'm going to need more brew. Unfortunately, the elves know nothing of the fine art of fermentation. I overheard that the Bloodmaul ogres down in the ravine have plenty. I'm willing to give it a try. Do me a favor?

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Getting the Bladespire TankedBlade's Edge Mountains · Level 20-30

    I'll not take another sip of that ill-smelling muck! But it does give me an idea. <Borgrim gets a twinkle in his eye.> So here's the plan. We know that the Bloodmaul practically live off of this swill. But I wonder what their enemies, the Bladespire ogres, think of it?
