Ogri’la Faction Explained

Ogri’la are smart(er) ogres who dwell in Blade’s Edge Mountains. In lore, they are like this because of their exposure to Apexis Crystals, which are also a currency that you will need to trade with them. They are a faction that requires you to do daily quests to gain rep with them, which means that you will not be able to speedrun their faction progression. Unlike dungeon factions that make you farm mobs or spam dungeons, the progression here is more straightforward, albeit time-consuming.

How to Unlock Ogri’la

The only prerequisites to start your initiation questline with Ogri’la are flying and being level 70. You will not be able to access their faction hub in Blade’s Edge Mountains without it. If you’re a warlock, you can be summoned there by a friend or guildmate who already has a flying mount, but you’ll need to travel there over and over again, and it can be quite a bother for you and your mate to do this every time, not to mention you still need level 70.

To start the faction’s questline, you need to talk to V’eru (/way 57 48) in Shattrath City. This intro quest chain will send you to Mor’dorg the Wizened, who will then ask you to complete five group quests, and as a result, you’ll reach Neutral reputation with Ogri’la. Here’s a full list of starter quests to unlock Ogri’la in TBC Anniversary Phase 2:

Quest	Task
Speak with the Ogre	Speak with the Ogre, Grok, in the Lower City section of Shattrath City.
Mog’dorg the Wizened	Visit Mog’dorg the Wizened atop one of the towers just outside the Circle of Blood in the Blade’s Edge Mountains (/way 55 45)
Group Quest: Grulloc Has Two Skulls	Retrieve Grulloc's Dragon Skull and deliver it to Mog'dorg the Wizened atop the tower at the Circle of Blood in the Blade's Edge Mountains.
Group Quest: Maggoc’s Treasure Chest	Retrieve Maggoc's Treasure Chest and deliver it to Mog'dorg the Wizened atop the tower at the Circle of Blood in the Blade's Edge Mountains.
Group Quest: Even Gronn Have Standards	Retrieve Slaag's Standard and deliver it to Mog'dorg the Wizened atop the tower at the Circle of Blood in the Blade's Edge Mountains.
Group Quest: Grim(oire) Business	You must retrieve Vim'gol's Vile Grimoire. Deliver it to Mog'dorg the Wizened atop the tower at the Circle of Blood in the Blade's Edge Mountains.
Group Quest: Into the Soulgrinder	Retrieve Skulloc's Soul and deliver it to Mog'dorg the Wizened atop the tower at the Circle of Blood in the Blade's Edge Mountains.
Speak with Mog’dorg	Speak with Mog'dorg the Wizened. He stands atop the tower on the east side of the Circle of Blood in the Blade's Edge Mountains. (/way 55 45)

Important note: these quests aren’t tied to the faction’s normal progression and can be done in a single session, assuming you have the group for that, which shouldn’t be a problem. Now that you’re done with the introductory questline, you can access the main questline that will unlock daily quests for you.

How to Go from Neutral to Exalted with Ogri’la in TBC Anniversary

Nothing changes much once you reach a Neutral rep with Ogri’la. Though you can complete the initial Ogri’la questline even now, you can only start progressing the reputation once Phase 2 starts. The average time to go from Neutral to Exalted takes around a month, but if you’re lucky with Darkrune drops, this might take you less. Here are all Ogri’la quests to go from Neutral to Friendly:

Quest	Task	Rep Gain
Ogre Heaven	Mog'dorg the Wizened has asked you to speak with Chu'a'lor at Ogri'la in the Blade's Edge Mountains.	+25 Rep
The Crystals	Chu'a'lor has tasked you with gathering 5 Apexis Shards. Bring them to him at Ogri'la atop the Blade's Edge Mountains.	+250 Rep
An Apexis Relic	Chu'a'lor has asked you to return to him at Ogri'la atop the Blade's Edge Mountains after you have gained Apexis Vibrations from an Apexis Relic.	+250 Ogri’la & Sha’tari Skyguard Rep
Our Boy Wants To Be A Skyguard Ranger	Torkus has asked you to obtain an Unstable Flask of the Beast for him. Return with it to him at Ogri'la atop the Blade's Edge Mountains.	+250 Rep
A Father’s Duty	Torkus has asked you to obtain an Unstable Flask of the Sorcerer for him. Return with it to him at Ogri'la atop the Blade's Edge Mountains.	+250 Rep
Group Quest: A Fel Whip For Gahk	Gahk has asked you to acquire a Fel Whip. Bring it to him at Ogri'la atop the Blade's Edge Mountains.	+500 Rep
Guardian of the Monument	Chu'a'lor has asked you to obtain an Apexis Guardian's Head for him as proof. Return with it to him at Ogri'la atop the Blade's Edge Mountains once you have done so.	+500 Ogri’la & Sha’tari Skyguard Rep
The Skyguard Outpost	Chu'a'lor has asked you to speak with Sky Commander Keller at the Skyguard Outpost atop the Blade's Edge Mountains.	+10 Sha’Tari Skyguard Rep
Bombing Run	Sky Sergeant Vanderlip has tasked you with the bombing of 15 Fel Cannonball Stacks. Return to her at the Skyguard Outpost atop the Blade's Edge Mountains once you have done so.	+500 Ogri’la & Sha’tari Skyguard Rep
Assault on Bash’ir Landing!	Sky Commander Keller has asked you to speak with the Aether-tech Apprentice at the Skyguard Outpost in the Blade's Edge Mountains.	+10 Sha’Tari Skyguard Rep
Wrangle Some Aether Rays!	Skyguard Khatie has asked you to wrangle 5 Aether Rays. After you have done so, return them to her at the Skyguard Outpost atop the Blade's Edge Mountains.	+500 Ogri’la & Sha’tari Skyguard Rep
Group Quest: To Rule The Skies	Sky Commander Keller has asked you to acquire Dragon Teeth and return them to him at the Skyguard Outpost atop the Blade's Edge Mountains.	+500 Sha’Tari Skyguard Rep

As you can see, completing certain quests also grants Sha’Tari Skyguard reputation, which is another new faction available in Phase 2. Completing certain quests unlocks their daily version, specifically:

• The Relic’s Emanation: Unlocked by An Apexis Relic. Rewards +350 Ogri’la Rep.
• Bomb Them Again!: Unlocked by Bombing Run. Rewards +500 Ogri’la & Sha’tari Skyguard Rep.
• Wrangle More Aether Rays!: Unlocked by Wrangle Some Aether Rays!. Rewards +350 Ogri’la & Sha’tari Skyguard Rep.

These will be the main quests to unlock new reputation stages with Ogri’la. Once you reach Friendly reputation, you’ll unlock a new quest titled “A Special Thank You”, which will give you 10 Rep with Ogri’la and Ogri’la Care Package, which contains the following items:

• Red Ogre Brew Special x3
• Blue Ogre Brew Special x2
• Unstable Flask of the Bandit x1
• Unstable Flask of the Soldier x1
• Unstable Flask of the Physician x1
• Unstable Flask of the Elder x1

Eventually, you’ll reach Honored reputation. After that, Kronk will give you the “Banish the Demons” quest, which will reward you with +350 Ogri’la & Sha’tari Skyguard Rep, and a Darkrune. Doing this quest unlocks a new daily, Banish More Demons, which gives +350 Ogri’la Rep and Kronk’s Grab Bag, which contains Apexis Shards, the Darkrune Fragment, or the complete Darkrune. After getting this daily, you gain a new way to farm reputation with the Ogri’la: Shartuul’s Transporter, aka Legion Ring event.

 

 

How to Complete the Shartuul’s Transporter Event

To fully explain all the intricacies of the Shartuul’s Transporter would require a separate article. That’s why I’ll only briefly explain how to complete the Shartuul’s Transporter:

1. Complete the Banish More Demons daily to receive Kronk’s Grab Bag. Open it and check for Darkrune or Darkrune Fragment.
2. Five Darkrune Fragments are required to turn them into one Darkrune. Once you have Darkrune, you want to go and turn it into the Crystalforged Darkrune with Gahk’s help.
3. Once you have the modified rune, go South of Forge Camp: Wrath in Blade’s Edge Mountains.
4. Interact with Felguard Degrader and start the event.
5. During the Legion Ring event, you need to control three demons along multiple phases. What you need to do is keep your demons alive while dealing with bosses that spawn here.

Completing this event grants a whopping +750 Ogri’la reputation and a chance to receive a depleted item. Be careful and do not open Kronk’s Bag if you already have a Darkrune in your inventory, as they’re unique. If you didn’t use your previous Darkrune, go and activate it at Gahk, do the event, and only then open the daily bag. If you find the Legion Ring event hard, which it is, try this Shartuul’s Transporter guide from Wowpedia.

 

 

Ogri’la Reputation Rewards in TBC Anniversary Phase 2

You might be wondering why you even do all the daily quests for a month. Well, the payoff is somewhat mediocre. Ogri’la’s gear rewards aren’t BiS or even BiS alternatives, so they are only ever good if you’re catching up to the actual content and can’t do raids yet. To get the gear and items, find Jho’nass (/way 28 59). She sells the rewards for Apexis Shards and Apexis Crystals, which are a local currency. Apexis Shards can be found all over the place and don’t require purposeful grinding to get them. Apexis Crystals are rarer and can be dropped by Elites in Blade’s Edge Mountains. Here are the Ogri’la reputation rewards in TBC Anniversary Phase 2:

Reputation Needed	Item/Gear	Cost
Neutral	Crystal Healing Potion	Silver x40; Apexis Shard x50
Neutral	Crystal Mana Potion	Silver x40; Apexis Shard x50
Honored	Red Ogre Brew	Apexis Shard x2
Honored	Blue Ogre Brew	Apexis Shard x3
Revered	Cerulean Crystal Rod	Apexis Shard x50; Apexis Crystal x1
Revered	Ogri'la Aegis	Apexis Shard x50; Apexis Crystal x1
Revered	Apexis Cloak	Apexis Shard x50; Apexis Crystal x1
Revered	Crystalforged Trinket	Apexis Shard x50; Apexis Crystal x1
Exalted	Crystalline Crossbow	Apexis Shard x100; Apexis Crystal x4
Exalted	Shard-bound Bracers	Apexis Shard x100; Apexis Crystal x4
Exalted	Vortex Walking Boots	Apexis Shard x100; Apexis Crystal x4
Exalted	Crystal Orb of Enlightenment	Apexis Shard x100; Apexis Crystal x4
Exalted	Ogri'la Tabard	Apexis Shard x10

Apart from what you can purchase, there’s also gear you can pick up from Elite mobs around the Blade’s Edge Mountains area. This gear is called Depleted. Combining it with Apexis Shards x50, it can be turned into a piece of gear. Most of this gear isn’t that interesting and is BoE, which means you can simply buy it from Auction and save your time. But FYI, I’ll list the depleted armor here:

Depleted Gear	Turns Into
Depleted Badge	Badge of Tenacity
Depleted Cloak	Crystalweave Cape
Depleted Cloth Bracers	Crystalweave Bracers
Depleted Dagger	Crystal-Infused Shiv
Depleted Mace	Apexis Crystal Mace
Depleted Mail Gauntlets	Crystalhide Handwraps
Depleted Ring	Dreamcrystal Band
Depleted Staff	Flaming Quartz Staff
Depleted Sword	Crystalforged Sword
Depleted Two-Handed Axe	Apexis Cleaver

There are only two Epics in this list, the Bracers and the Handwraps, but they can be fine placeholders til you get some decent gear. Badge of Tenacity is actually the best pre-raid Trinket for Feral Druids.
