      WHO:  31 shadow spec ud priest
      WHERE: 36,43  Boulderfist Outpost

      NOTE:  Remember: as a priest DISTANCE is your friend.  Start clearing outside the mine entrance.  The ogres (need 8) are all roaming around the outside.  The enforcers (need 10) are all inside the mine.  Most of the enforcers are 34 but u can find some 33 inside or as respawns.
      As a low level the trick is to get the enforcers one at a time.  You clear the outside (2-3 ogres sitting around) so that you can hit one of the enforcers and drag him out a bit so you don't have to worry about any addons.  Basically you take care of the ogre requirements and provide a safe area to clear out enforcers.

      An awesome strategy that I found was that when the ogres or enforcers become enraged (their fists will start glowing red) is to run back a bit and start attacking from far away again.  When the ogres/enforcers become enraged their walking speed is reduced to about 50% it seems.  This makes it ridiculously ez to kill them as long as you don't get any adds.  Also you get minimal damage should be unable to shield.

        I didn't get the quest until I had completed some of the other Tarren Mill quests.  I'm not sure which one was the trigger, but remember reading something about "well, you've done good so far... blah, blah, blah"  Just help your buddy knock out a few of the basic quests offered by the Tarren Mill NPCs and try again.

      Where is it: Arathi Highlands (SE of TM - follow the road)
      Cosmos Level: 32
      Creep Level : Ogres are 32-33, Enforcers are 33-34
      Located at : Ogres are anywhere from 31, 48 to 35, 44, which is North (and a little East) of Stromguard. Enforcers are inside the cave at 35, 44

      Creep XP : About 230 (for a level 32 mage, with normal rest)
      Quest Completion : 2550 XP, and 30 silver.
      Creep Drops : About 1 silver, and 30 copper per ogre. Good farming for tailors, since I had a pretty constant drop of silk and wool

      Tips : - When they become enraged, they double their damage (from about 45 per hit, to about 100 per hit), but become much slower. Even a few steps back will buy you a few seconds more.
      - I noticed that they had a fairly decent aggro range, so its best if you cleared the area instead of sneaking by them.
      - Ogres are based along the road, and just North of Strom. The road is used often by both horde and alliance, but I noticed more alliance than horde. Some folks also wait for their group on the road outside Strom, so you might
      get picked off if you're on a pvp server
      . Its best to try and stay infront of the cave.

      - Really good area for Herbologists. Noticed an assortment of plants =)

      Finish:
      Cash it at Hammerfall with a guy called 'Drum Fel' on the upperdeck, near the inn, at 74, 33
      Time:
      Took me about 40 minutes as a 32 mage, but I died twice, and did some pvp fighting.

      Enjoy =)!

      The ogres are easy just because of their "powerful" enrage buff. As a level 30 druid you should have no problems at all: just dps as cat, and when ogres hands glow red they are reee-hee-heeaally slow. So just take a few steps back and either finish them off with starfire, moonfire or whatever, or use some time for rejuvenation and regrowth and win the fight with full health. I prefer the latter since they respawn pretty fast, you would want to move on and get them enforcers before it happens.

      I'd say the main problem is probably the road. Many allys travel there, as well as a gang of three NPC:s riding back and forth. Stay away from that side of the mountain, the entrance to the cave is on the other side anyway.

      As a druid of level 30, if you run into problems (in that case most likely with alliance), don't forget about your new Travel form. Shift, run and heal up.

      XP is good, a little more than 10 000 all in all, if you are level 30.

      Ok, the problem with this quest is, you have to turn it into Drum Fel in Hammerfall, so if you get this quest, you have to do it before you get Call to Arms quest. However, if you get Call to Arms first, you can not get this one. You need to abandon Call to Arms and go back to Tarren Mill and Tallow will give it to you.

      Just do 1 or 2 at a time, when they get allred just back up, toss a heal or 2 if you need, rebuff and just keep your distance, you can stun and run up hit 2ce (2h axe) and then run back again.

      key is keeping your distance and keep the stuns going.

      at 32 I get 200 exp per, and i had 1 exp from when i hit 32 finished the quest with 7K exp (killed spawns) Good quest.

      Boulderfist Outpost at Boulder'Gor: 36,43 confirmed. Can be seen from the road. No coordinates? From Tarren Mill: immediately past the first left in the road inside the Highlands. From Hammerfall: Stop as soon as you can see Stromgarde ahead of you and take a right. Alliance: just cut West across the field from Refuge Point.
      Ogres: lvl 32&33 outside
      Enforcers: lvl 33&34 inside
      Spec Abilities: Enrage, Demoralizing Shout, Fist of Stone(increases damage taken blah blah blah).
      Level 33-34 Trolls inside AND outside the cave. Melee, but the Witchdoctors have Healing Stream totems.
      Well spaced so adds aren't a problem.

      **A note for those of you who are making everyone wade through the garbage to get to the info. People just want to know where it is and what kind of mobs they're facing. If you are posting to tell people what a piece of cake it was for you. I have to say. Nobody cares.

      Did this really easily as a 33 druid.  Just use prowl, sneak up, use ravage (this might be a bit difficult if you dont have the feral instict ability because the ogres have a long detection range) if you are having trouble avoiding them, just wait, and as soon as they turn their back, run up really quick and attack.  Rack up combo points and finish em off with ferocious bite, simple and quick.  Took me about 15-20 minutes.
      If you catch an aggro that u cant kill (i got 3 in a row at one point and didnt die) just stomp, rejuvinate, and then regrowth, it will get you enough health 2 finish the fight.

      a bit tricky as a mage. (lvl 32) but not impossible. ogres are no problem. enforcers are different. they require you to kill them in a confined space. limiting range, and increasing your chance of aggro. Suggestion: clear outside cave entrance mobs, then CC enforcers one by one. be wary, of respawn time, pretty fast. once again, tricky but not impossible.
