General QuestGatson is glad you've helped him so far, but he has one more favor to ask. He figures if you raid the Orc's camp that they'll leave his land alone.
STEPS:
1) Defeat 10 Dead-aim Ongburz in Gurzlum. Defeat 10 Grim Ongburz in Gurzlum. Gatson tells you:
"One of my hands said he saw an Orc-camp to the southwest of my land. He said it was a pretty large camp, so you'll probably want to gather your friends again. If this works, I'll be mighty grateful."
He tells you to gather friends, but this is NOT a fellowship quest, and it doesn't need to be. The Orcs in question are level 25-27, and the camp is not too far away. While going in a group will expedite your questing, as long as you can comfortably handle 1-2 of these Orcs at a time, you should be able to solo this. The main entrance gate is at: (12.4s, 45.9w), though there are other ways to get inside.
2) Talk to Gatson.
3) After you speak with them and select "Finish Now", you get your coin reward, XP, and either Gatson's Spear or Gatson's Shoulder Guards.
