These guys are not too hard for this level, although you may need a ranged attack to pull some of them.

Since you'll likely be doing Brother Against Brother at the same time, you'll have several farmers/militia with you, complete with a pet bar with which to control them. If you leave them on defensive, they'll attack whatever you attack. Otherwise, pick a target and hit Ctrl-1 to get them to attack.

Rewards21g, 5,150 XP

Description

The val'kyr were one of the Scourge's primary weapons. Not only were they skilled in battle, but they could be used to convert corpses into Scourge minions. To think that Sylvanas is stooping to such levels for the sake of the Forsaken... We need to stop the val'kyr before they wipe us out and turn our army against us. Slay as many as you can find. And bring some of these minutemen with you. If they've survived this long, then they must have some battle skill.

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.
