The Shady Rest Inn quest chain can start either at the Inn itself, from the objects, or from Brackenwall Village (37.6,31.7), Dustwallow Marsh.
If the player chooses to start the quest chain in Brackenwall, Krog (36,31) will give the following quest:
This quest completes at Inspector Tarem (29.6,47.5), located just outside of the inn, who will then use powder to help 'illuminate' the "clues." This basically causes purple arrows to appear, pointing at the individual quest objects strewn about the destroyed inn. Obtaining and completing this quest is not necessary, as the quest chains can be started directly from the objects regardless.

From the Shady Rest Inn (29.4,47.5), the quest branches into three paths, each starting when a different item gets looted.
The first quest for each chain will have you bring the three items to Krog in Brackenwall Village.

Loot the Black Shield (29.6,48.6):
Loot the Suspicious Hoofprints (29.7,47.7):
Loot the Theramore Guard Badge (29.8,48.2):
  1. Questioning Reethe You are here!
After completing all three quest chains, Krog will offer a fifth The Black Shield quest, asking players to bring the Blackened Iron Shield to Mosarn (55.6,79.6) in Thunder Bluff.

Mosarn will then volunteer new information regarding the "mystery" and starts the following short chain:
When these three quests have been completed, Krog will direct you to Tabetha (46.0,57.1) for further progression and conclusion:

You need to check, BEFORE you talk to Ogron and accept the quest, that the little tent area has Reethe standing there all by his lonesome, alive and well - and when you do it STAY CLOSE TO OGRON. You see, people commonly either (1) get killed by the four mobs that spawn and attack, or (2) are standing too far away from Ogron when those four mobs suddenly turn red and start attacking you and Ogron. I had to do this quest twice myself, and then I watched a friend try this quest three times before he succeeded, and it went like this: the first time I did it, as I approached the camp, Reethe was there along with some red mobs, who attacked us before we started questioning. We killed them, and the "interview" went all buggy, Reethe dropped dead, and the quest did not complete. I had to abandon and retry, and it worked like a charm four spawned mobs AFTER you start questioning Reethe, one of them shoots Reethe, then all four turn red and attack.
When my friend tried it, after I told him that four mobs would spawn, he backed off to safe frost bolt distance. Then when the mobs turned aggressive, only the near one of the four went red, and the others stayed green, even though they were attacking Ogron. As a result, he killed only one mob, the other three couldn't be targeted, they killed Ogron, and the quest failed. He left, and came back a little while later. The three unkilled mobs were still in the camp. I related my experience that if the mobs were in camp the quest wouldn't work right, so he killed them and ran over to Ogron, starting the quest. It still didn't work, as the interview was all buggy, ending up with Ogron standing there and no "quest completed" notice. He abandoned it. left, and came back later, and it worked fine.
So, the quest is definitely bugged, but it CAN be completed if no one preceding you has left any of the four mobs alive, AND if you stay close to Ogron the whole time.

You must have done the Shady Rest Inn chain quests... which involve:

Suspicious Hoofprints
Lieutenant Paval Reethe
The Black Shield.

Shady Rest Inn is at the entrance of Dustwallow Marsh coming from The Barrens.

This quest is very buggy, but I finally got it complete. I died about 4 times trying it. On my last attempt, Ogron paused in mid battle along with three of the four alliance. Any attempt to hit them resulted in "Evade". I went back to town and repaired, by the time I came back, Ogron and the three alliance must have just come out of "bugged mode" and they were back to fighting. He was down to 1/4 life and I healed him to 3/4 life. I took out the 3 alliance one at a time, with his help, and healed Ogron a couple of more times. When the last one died, I got the "complete" message. The other NPC said something about "the girl was a good shot" then he died. Finally, Ogron thanked me for helping him and ran back to his starting spot.

I got 3550 xp for this at level 39 with no reputation adjustment. But the most interesting part to this was that it began the next part to the Black Shield quest which had ended at the turn in NPC. He offered me a new quest "The Black Shield" which has you go to Thunderbluff to talk to an NPC. Apparently killing the traitor "jogs his memory" as he says, enabling the sequence of an earlier quest that started at the Burning Inn and ended with him, to resume.

This quest likes to bug. Sometimes one or more of the four mobs that spawn show up as friendly. This prevents you from attacking them, but doesn't prevent them from attacking and killing you and/or Ogron.

The quest also breaks if Reethe hasn't died yet because there is still one of the quest mobs alive after failing it. Ogron wanders over to talk to a guy that isn't there, and nothing else happens.

Weirdly enough. I found this quest a bit difficult. Its good to send pet in to agro the mobs wile you can because they can deal a bit of damage on Ogron and kill him quickly as I learned in my first attempt, Also, If you do, make sure the crocs around you are killed just in case you fear or run back. don't want to be killed by a croc.

Found this quest to be quite hard when attempting it with my shaman. Ogron cant even take on a single mob and he managed to die on me, when the guy he was bashing only took around 30% damage. Unless you can deal damage to multiple mobs, be it either multishot or retaliation it would be best to ask someone for help.

Long story short, if you cant kill atleast 3 lvl 37 npcs on your own dont bother soloing.

If your a Priest, you will draw agro from anyone not being attacked by Ogron if you heal him, so be prepaired to fear the 3 mobs that come @ you. Dot and Destroy the one Ogron is on before the other 3 come back from fear, heal Ogron if needed. Kite and dot the next one Ogron is attacking and continue to kite and bubble until you can cast fear again. Rince and repeat. It helps to kill the few crocs surrounding the island, because fear will agro them. If you have to drink a potion drink a mana. Heal with Aids while fearing if your low on life. THE KEY FOR A PRIEST IS KITE.

This is difficult. You have to keep Ogron alive to complete the quest, and he dies pretty fast!

If you are a Hunter with First Aid you can do it solo.

This is how you do it:
When the alliance guards attacks send your pet to attack the first guard who attacks Ogron. Let your pet hit two times. Then send your pet to attack the second guard who attacks Ogron (and the third one) to take aggro off Ogron.

Then start shooting on one of the guards who is attacking Ogron (shoot on the one who has taken most dammage so far).

When Ogron's helth is low, heal him with heavy mageweave-bandage. Continue to send your pet to attack the guards one by one to keep aggro. Remember to heal yor pet!

Keep on shooting and keep aggro off Ogron. When the last Guard dies you will receive the message "Quest completed".

Tip:
If you fail, you have to abbandon the quest before you can talk to Ogron again and get the quest again. Sometimes when you retry the quest, Ogron only runs to the tent and then back to his post. Then just abbandon quest and try again.

Apparently, there is a time limit as to how long Reethe will stay alive once the arrow has been shot into his chest. LOL Who'd a thunk it?

This quest is horde only.

Prereq:
Go to the burning inn, on one of the boards there's a TINY badge, click it for this quest:
(Quest #1269) it in and the guy will send you to Ogron. He will not give you a quest to go to him, so you have to find him yourself. Coords: 40,36
Ogron will give you this quest, again, horde only. He wil walk a short way to Reethe's camp, and talk to him. After a while, 4-5 alliance guards come by and attack you. If you're a healer, you can heal Ogron and yourself. I died, but the run from the GY isn't far and as long as Ogron doesn't die, you don't fail. So just rez, and keep healing/damaging. Once he's done talking with Reethe after you kill the guys, run back to Brackenwall and your quest is done.

SO I go with Ogron, he does his threats speech to Reethe, etc, Alliance guys show up...I start fighting alongside Ogron, but start taking massive damage, and hightail it out, heal, come back, continue, etc. Ogron ends up back at his spot, Reethe dies, cant do anything with him, cant talk to Ogron again, and when I go back to town, its not complete. the arrow over the quest givers head is gray, but in my quest log detail, its yellow. Again, when i go back to Ogron, I cant talk to him...I dont get it. Anyone have any ideas? Think I will try to dump it and hopefully can restart somewhere.

As expected, if Ogron dies you will fail this quest. If you do, and run away from the mobs, they will remain there and you'll have to kill them if you want to retry the quest right away. Can anyone confirm if they eventually despawn?

The quest also fails if Ogron dies, even if you kill all the other mobs yourself. Make sure you take all the aggro as Ogron can't handle even 2 of the mobs by himself.

When you turn this in to Krog, he gives you another "The Black Shield" quest (http://classicdb.ch/?quest=1276 ) where you gotta find Mosarn (http://classicdb.ch/?npc=4943 ) in TB.

For those druids attempting to solo this quest, I'd like to tell you it is possible. I did it at level 35. First, clear the entire area around Reethe's camp, especially the crocs behind trees, or anything on the neighboring islands thats too close. Next, buff yourself and Ogron. Follow him in your normal, non-shifted form. When the privates appear, stand in the center of their group and cast rejuvenation and regrowth on yourself, for some nice HoT's while you fight. Switch into bear form, and use Enrage to build up some rage before the fight begins. Kill any critters nearby, if you can. Anything that helps. When the 3-4 NPC become hostile, they should all go to you. Smash away at all of them you can, and keep aggro off of Ogron. I had to heal twice, and use a health potion halfway through. Towards the end, after my heals, I didn't have the mana to switch back into bear. At this point, if it happens to you, just kite the remaining NPCs around the island, and use the trees to your advantage! Cast Regrowth on yourself whenever you can, and eventually Ogron will finish them off.

If you happen to die during the course of the quest, just wait- I died with Private Hallan at 55% health. Since I had buffed Ogron ahead of time, he was able to finish her off without dieing. I didn't release, and once he had killed her I got completion.

There you have it-> Soloed by a level 35 druid. It was tough, but possible. Feel free to try my strategy. ;D

Another tip, clear the crocolisks in the surrounding shallow water before you start the quest. Ogron will sometimes chase after the mobs that are running in fear and aggro nearby crocs, which will likely kill him pretty quickly.
