The highest voted Wowhead comments for this page. They are community notes, not TheWoWDB comments.
Clearing the barracks is a tough one if you are doing these quests solo and at level. The mobs fight in groups and adjacent ones agro real quick, not to mention the fast respawn rate. The mobs you will be questing after aren't that tough, its just when a group of mobs gets after you, as is often the case. I'm a hunter and trying to do ranged, traps and kiting in such a confined space is a nightmare. Got killed four times in the process.
Fine, I can give you a mission or two. (Proceeds to give you four missions)

What to do
Description
One of the key fortifications within Tyr's Hand is the barracks, which lies right next to this flare. The Brotherhood of Light and their centurions will need all the help they can get in sacking it.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- To Take the Abbey
The Scarlet Crusade maintains a well-fortified abbey in the lower western tier of Tyr's Hand. The abbey will need to be secured before proceeding any further into the stronghold.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Victory From Within
A few of our men didn't make it through portals which were supposed to open inside this very abbey. You've already proven your elusiveness and battlehardiness... now I need you to do so again. The abbey has two wings: a library, and a hall of arms. In each wing, you should find a portal.
