Nek'rosh's Gambit

A level 31 quest for the Alliance, from level 23.

Unchanged in Forever as far as is known: the text, objectives and rewards below are Classic’s.

Quest Objectives

Destroy the Dragonmaw catapults.

Provided: Dwarven Tinder

Description

While you were fighting the Dragonmaws, we discovered more of their plans.

Nek'rosh has built catapults and aims to lay siege to Menethil! And with the fighting in Dun Algaz, we're effectively blocked from reinforcements!

You need to take out those catapults. They're in the Dragonmaw encampment.

Here, take this tinder. Fight your way to the catapults and light them with the tinder.

And after you've done that, find and kill Nek'rosh. We need to cut this Dragonmaw beast down...at its neck.

Rewards

When you come back

The first catapult is before you. Will you set it aflame?

When you hand it in

You place some of the tinder on the catapult then strike a spark onto it.

Flame erupts and quickly spreads!
