This is the questline for the [race=2] Heritage armor.
For this questline you must have an Orc at level 50+ who is exalted with Orgrimmar.
The first quest popped up after login and wants us to meet Eitrigg in Orgrimmar.


  2. A Summon to Orgrimmar - meet Eitrigg in the main house

  4. A People in Need of Healing - use the portal in front of Grommash Hold
    - follow [npc=199053] and talk to [npc=199136]
    - click the 4 totems around you. Wait the dialogue and talk to [npc=199136] to start the fights. Defeat the wolves.
    - Destroy the totems to weaken [npc=201615] and defeat him too.
    - Talk to [npc=199140] and click the extra button [spell=395792]

  6. The Kosh'harg - click the [npc=200266] in front of the house. Talk to [npc=199148]

  8. The Blessing of the Clan - enter the main house and choose a champion. Not sure if this make a difference, I took [npc=199173] and got The Long Knives after turn in
    - Tracking a Killer - find the clues
    - Cornering Gor'krosh - follow the paws/yellow dots to /way 59.168 63.40 the nest. Click it and kill [npc=199186]. Click the blood

    The Blessing of the Land - click the skeleton at /way 40.71 26.91
    - The Spirit of Thunder Ridge - click the seeds in the water around you (you don't get an item). Click the the skeleton again

    The Blessing of the Ancestors - talk to [npc=199383], next quest is An Important Heirloom.
    - Learn Cooking at [npc=201018] and pick up [item=202646] in the house nearby
    - Orcish Groceries - click the cookbook near you. Find or purchase all the cooking ingredients marked on the map. I found the [item=202026] at 51.32 43.89 on the ground a bit hard to see
    - A Worthy Offering - click extra button [spell=264632]. In case you can't find the receipes, change the filter to Classic or search for the receipes manually. Cook [item=202710], [item=202708], [item=202709] and [item=202032]. Place the feast at the marked area


  10. Honor and Glory - enjoy the foods on the tables to fill the bar. Talk to [npc=201505] and defeat him. You can pickup and throw [spell=400758], they are on the ground near the tables. Turn in (cinematic)

  12. Aka'magosh - turn in and get your [spell=399753] and also [item=204170]. I got three full transmogs (see below), so I assume it doesn't matter what champion we chose at the beginning

The questline took about 35 minutes at level 70 and ilvl 350.

Description

To earn the blessing of the land, a young orc must learn respect for the spirits that dwell alongside us. If we do not live in balance with the elements and life around us, it can lead to calamity. I will call to the spirits, and they will guide us to where your aid is needed. It is up to you to complete the task before you.

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 Kosh'hargLevel 50-90

    The Kosh'harg will be held in Razor Hill. Go'el and Eitrigg are gathering the clans as we speak. We will have to part ways for now. You must begin mentally preparing yourself for the om'gora--the rite of honor. It is my task to make sure it is a worthy challenge, even for you.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • The Spirit of Thunder RidgeLevel 50-90

    Life can only thrive when a delicate balance is maintained. The arrival of your people and the humans was but the first link in the chain that led to desolation. You yourself are not to blame, but you can be the force that restores what once was.

The storyline at a glance

Orc Heritage Armor has 14 steps, from A People in Need of Healing to Aka'magosh.

Maps its steps are placed on (steps per map): Durotar (11), Valley of Trials (2), Orgrimmar (1).
