Objectives

Kill 12 defenders at Dionor's Demise.

• Dionor defenders slain x12

Description

There may be more to this aberrant growth than it seems, but we will need to clear the way a bit before we can get to the bottom of this, yes?

I suggest clearing out some of the angrier defenders to be on the safe side.

Item level 528 belts

	[Steamburst Waistwrap]			[Overgrowth Cutter Girdle]

Progress

How goes the pruning <class>?

Completion

I have slain quite a few as well but they continue to spring up here.

We will need another solution...

Gains

• 18900 XP

Notes

Pick up  [15-40] Ambassador to the Ancient before heading out.

Then enter the forested area and start killing botani and tentacles.

At the southern end of the forested area, find a pile of Hardened Thornvine, which can be shredded by players who chose the Lumber Mill to find an Aged Stone Container.

At the northern end of the quest area, Char the Burning, a rare Draenor ancient, has been set alight by some Grom'kar Pyros. Loot Char's corpse for  [Char's Smoldering Fist] and 10-20 [Garrison Resources]. Additionally, to the northwest, elite steam elemental Erosian the Violent is found. An objective of  [Gorgrond Monster Hunter], Erosian drops Crystallized Steam, which starts  [15-40] Trophy of Glory: Erosian.

Alatur has moved from his previous spot to a small cave a hundred or so yards west of Birchus, halfway up the hill.
