How the run goes

A maze of thorny tunnels full of quilboar. The path winds from the entrance through the warrens of Roogug and the Thorncurse shamans, past Overlord Ramtusk, through Agathelos's pen and up to Charlga Razorflank.

Group: A tank, a healer and three damage dealers around level 32. Quilboar run when hurt and casters heal each other: interrupts and slows are worth more than raw damage.

From the entrance up into the eastern tunnels for Roogug, Aggem Thorncurse and Death Speaker Jargba, north to Overlord Ramtusk, then west along the winding tunnels to Agathelos, the Blind Hunter if he's up, and Charlga Razorflank.
