Runeforge

We last left off fighting Malygos’ troops in Coldarra. Before we start there are a few things to note. At this point you can run the Nexus and hit level 72 or thereabouts really quickly making a lot of the upcoming quests easier and putting you ahead a good bit. You should also note that you’ll be inside of a cave for an extended period of time so a lot of food, water, and ammo would be good to have stocked up.

Runeforge

If you’re ready to begin then head to Amber Ledge and then get on the main road going northward. If you follow the road you’ll reach an outpost to your left going north called Bor’gorok Outpost. If you need the coordinates then just head towards 50,11. When you get there (if you’ve been following the guide) you should have a quest known as Report to Boro’gorok Outpost, Quickly! which you can now turn in.

Runeforge

Get the flight point and pick up The Sky Will Know and Steeljaw’s Caravan.  These quests lead to two different lengthy quest lines so be ready for some grinding. Go ahead and head west out of the outpost to 47,9 where you’ll find an elemental known as Imperean.

Runeforge

You’ll get the quest Boiling Point after you turn in The Sky Will Known. This quest is really simple but you can complicate it with useless grinding. Luckily this is a pretty good farm spot for elemental items so the area is usually cleared out but that won’t always be true so let’s assume that the place is teeming with elementals. Sneak around to 50,14 avoiding as many elementals as you can to defeat Simmer. Once he gets almost done he’ll do a little bit of a speech and then despawn. He’s pretty easy to get to since he’s up on a cliff and there isn’t a lot in the way.

Runeforge

Next up is Churn who is around 45,15. The trick here is that his pool is just swarmed with elementals and getting through to him would be a long process so here is what you do. Sneak around the elementals to where the path down into the water starts and you’ll see the waterfall. That’s where Churn is at. Just pull him out and do the same thing. Get him low and he’ll despawn. Return back to turn in and you’ll get Motes of the Enraged.

Runeforge

This quest is pretty simple. To the west around the ruins you’ll see Enraged Tempests who will drop Tempest Motes. They have a low drop rate so you may be here a bit but the grinding experience is well worth it. When you’re done getting five motes you can return to get the next quest in this line which is Return to the Spirit Talker.

Head back to the outpost and talk to Spirit Talker Snarlfang. The next quest is Visions of Air which is really easy. Use [Imperean’s Primal] near the totem to see a quick act played out within a blue aura. When it’s finished talk again with Snarlfang to turn in and get Farseer Grimwalker’s Spirit.

Runeforge

Before you head out heed my warning or else you’ll be in a world of sorrow. If you read the text you’ll see Ortosh saying come see him. If you do you’ll get the quest Revenge Upon Magmoth. If you look eastward out of the outpost you’ll see a cave and that’s where the quest is at. If you really need a cord then go to 53,13.

Go ahead and start by entering the cave. We’ll do the enemies on the outside later, but now let’s get the main quest line done. Don’t jump down or you’ll face the big bad dude in the middle which is for the Alliance and not the Horde. Just run down the spiraling ramp until the bottom. If you follow the side you should avoid a lot of the aggro. Do not go out of your way to get any of the Shamans or Mates for the revenge quest. Those will come later. If you aggro them go ahead and kill them but don’t go out of your way basically.

Runeforge

When you reach the bottom (past the entrance to Magmothregar) you should see a room. Inside of it is a lot of Mates of Magmothregar and their offspring. Clear out the way to him (you can kind of sneak through the middle of the room to save some time) and talk with the spirit of Grimwalker. He’ll ask you to kill Kaganishu (with the quest oddly named Kaganishu) who is outside the room in a corner.

Runeforge

He’s got a fairly ok respawn but the room with Grimwalker can repop pretty quickly. When you’ve killed Kaganishu use the fetish on Grimwalker and turn the quest in. Return my Remains is the follow-up to the quest and again read the bold text! Before you leave get his remains from below him or you’ll be making another long walk back down here.

Runeforge

When you’re done with all of that you’re going to be left with the revenge quest. You’ll need 10 Shamans, 5 Foragers, 3 Crushers, and 3 Mates of Magmothregar.  By now you should have a good deal of Shamans and Mates. The Mates are inside, Crushers and Foragers are outside, and Shamans are everywhere round the cave. Don’t just look at the entrance for Crushers and Foragers and look all around the area.

When you’re finished return back to the outpost and turn in both quests. You’re now done with the outpost for the time being. Restock up on food, ammo, etc. for the caravan.

Steeljaw’s Caravan is at 48,19 or basically south of the outpost. There are three quests here and one of them is an escort that will finish most of the first two. Start off by getting the quests Pick Up The Honored Dead and Put Them to Rest. When you have these two quests then go ahead and look over the instructions for each and ready your torch. You’ll want to kill as many of the spirits and burn as many corpses while doing the escort as you can. When you’re done pick up We Strike!.

We Strike! will spawn a lot of guards that will move area to area with you killing the spirits in their path. Use their help and be sure to do as much damage to get the “kill” and quest credit at the same time. Just follow them until Steeljaw spawns. When he spawns let them tank while you DPS him down. Avoid his whirlwind attack as much as you can and be careful. He’s pretty tough. When he’s dead finish up the other two quests and then turn all three in. You’re now done with the area.

If you have rested experienced and grinded enough you’ll now be level 72. Congratulations! If you’re falling back some, that’s fine. Just continue following the guide to 80 and you’ll hit 72 shortly. Until the next update comes out you can reference this article on where to go and when in Northrend.
