Calling in the Reserves
Last wiki revision 2023-09-12
Calling in the Reserves is a hook quest for Thousand Needles, designed to get players to visit a new area. There are no killing/loot requirements; the player character need only travel to Thousand Needles (technically the Barrens, but the Great Lift connects the Barrens and Thousand Needles) to deliver a message.
Maggran wishes you to deliver a letter to Grish Longrunner at the Great Lift in the Barrens.
- Maggran's Reserve Letter (provided)
The Horde does well keeping our troops fresh... since the Great War we have been prosperous here in Kalimdor.
I need you to do me a favor, I have a lad by the name of Grish Longrunner protecting the Great Lift in the southern barrens. Give him this letter; the letter will let him know that I have a reserve warrior coming to relieve him of duty so that he can visit his family. He requested this sometime ago and he would be happy to hear the news.
You will receive:
- 1,150 XP
- +50 reputation with Thunder Bluff
You have news from Maggran Earthbinder?
This is great news; I have been sitting here guarding this hunk of wood for too long. Now I can spend some time with my family... Yippee!
Pick up this quest from Maggran in Sun Rock Retreat in Stonetalon Mountains. Then travel to the southern-most end of the Barrens to the Great Lift and deliver the letter to Grish Longrunner for some easy experience, money, and reputation.
