Objectives
Use the shredder to destroy the Talrendis Ancient. Emergency Backup Shredders are available at the Orgrimmar Rear Gate if you lose yours.
- Talrendis Ancient slain
Description
How's that shredder holding up? I think I can bring your emergency power supplies online - that'll recharge you when you're wounded.
Listen, these night elves are being strengthened by an ancient of war who's taken root just west of the gates. he's a big, giant tree. You know what to do! Take him out!
You were made for this!!

Completion
You did it, <name>! The invaders have pulled back and they told me I was crazy for installing a grenade launcher on a woodchipper...
Great work with the Shredder. With an impressive showing like that right here on the Warchief's doorstep, the Horde can't doubt what goblin technology can do for them. I owe you a big thanks!
Notes
- Emergency Power Reserves Online.
The shredder gains one last ability:
- Recharge — Tap emergency power reserves, healing the shredder for 70% of its maximum health. Instant (12 sec cooldown)
Head west along the path to the Ancient Grove. There, at [21.5, 75.9], the Talrendis Ancient awaits, initially friendly. Getting too close will turn it hostile, however:
- Talrendis Ancient yells: Keep your machines away from me, <race>! You'll be cleansed from this land like the weeds you are!
Get about 20 yards away and spam the grenades, using fling blade ability when it's off cooldown. The new ability is a heal, so take advantage of it!
- The Talrendis Ancient howls out in pain!
