Quest text[edit]

Gaedin tells you, Let's have another word, <player>. I'm sure you've noticed already, but you gained knowledge of quite a few stances. I'm sure they're a bit much to take in, so I'll try to be simple. Stances are fighting styles - while many Warriors like to be aggressive and go straight for Offensive stance to deal more damage, others may prefer the Defensive stance and be able to reduce the power of incoming attacks.

  • Which should I use?

Gaedin tells you, No one knows! It is up to what you feel is best. However! Don't get too comfortable. Some abilities have different effects while in different stances. You should now know the ability Critical Strike. This is a very powerful ability that causes your next melee attack to never miss and to also cause double the damage. You can improve it even further by using Offensive Stance.

  • -- Continue --

Gaedin tells you, I want you to use Offensive Stance and Critical Strike on the Wriggling Masses nearby the Lookout Camp. You might've passed them as you were heading to the Agh'kuk Scouts last time.

You have used Offensive Stance! Now use Critical Strike and go kill those Maggots.

That's enough maggots. You swear you smell like them now.

Gaedin tells you, How did it go? I can see some maggot guts on you, so I'm guessing well! They sure pop when you hit them right and don't move too much otherwise. Perfect live targets.
