Objectives

Plant the bombs at the Northern, Eastern and Western sites of The Bombardment. Remove 12 Decrepit Laborers from the area.

• Northern bomb planted ^{[58.0, 39.0]}
• Eastern bomb planted ^{[59.3, 42.7]}
• Western bomb planted ^{[57.4, 41.5]}
• Decrepit Laborer slain (12)

Description

The Scourge continue to replenish their weapons of war from blighted grounds. Stopping their workers slows their production, but a decisive blow to their stockpiles would be far more effective.

Take these and head to the area southeast of here. Plant the bombs, then make a quick exit.

Weakening their supply lines should provide us ample time to retaliate.

Rewards

You will receive:

• 3x [Argent Commendation]
• 23 40
• 6,800 XP
• +75 reputation with Argent Crusade

Progress

Notes

Plenty of weak skeletons guarding the ghost bomb locations in the Bombardment.
