For the Alliance version of this quest, see  [15-30] Scourge First... Horde Later.

Objectives

Slay 15 Desiccated Scourge within Andorhal.

• Desiccated Scourge slain (15)

Description

Darkmaster Gandling of the Cult of the Damned leads the Scourge offensive here in Andorhal. My old counterpart, Thassarian, leads the Alliance forces. If we're to win Andorhal, we'll have to defeat both, but we will certainly fail if we take on both at once.

I know Thassarian well enough to know that he will focus on the Scourge first. We will do the same.

Take out the weaker, desiccated Scourge to reduce their numbers.The Alliance will have to wait to taste our wrath.

Progress

Thin out the Scourge forces, <name>. Our victory depends on keeping their numbers down.

Completion

You may not act quickly, but at least you do not fail me.

Very well. I will have a more important task for you, <name>, when the time is right.

Rewards

You will receive: 35

Notes

The mobs count for this quest are:

• Desiccated Magus
• Desiccated Spearman
