Changed in Forever. Gives 1,700 experience instead of 1,650, 1.03 times as much. From Wowhead’s Forever database.

Quest Objectives

Find the place the quest sends you to.

Description

So Stoutmantle sends a scrawny ‹race› like you to protect me? Guess you'll have to do. Better bring some friends too.

You know the deal, right? You watch my back and I'll take you to the Defias hideout. But you better be close by my side. The Defias gang wants my head now. If they see me with you, they'll try to kill me.

Let me know when you and any friends you can round up are ready to go.

Rewards

Experience: 1,700

+150 reputation with Stormwind

When you come back

What business do you have with me? I am a very busy man...

When you hand it in

Most excellent, ‹name›! VanCleef is as good as ours now that we know where he is hiding.
