Make sure when you plant the stouts that the ogres are not sober. The sober ogres will not react to it. The bladespire ogres are just north of the bloodmauls.

Comment by Phaleux

The part that isn't obvious about this quest is that the ogres have to walk towards the beer for it to count. I (a priest) was doing this with my rogue friend and at first we were sapping and dropping it at their feet -- this didn't work. We found a couple of ways of getting it to work

1. Place one in front of a patrolling Brute and wait for him to walk up to it. This is how most people will need to do this quest.
2. Sap and drop one a few yards away. Wait for sap to break, or sap something else and he'll notice it and get drunk.
3. This was the best way: Mind soothe! Use this oft-forgotten priest skill and walk up close, drop the mug and run away.

We found the Brutes and Cooks were the best to try to get drunk for this quest. Brutes seemed to be the only kind that were patrolling.

Apparently you don't have to wait for one to patrol into the booze. The range at which the ogres will detect the stout is larger than their aggro range. Figure out how far you have to be for them to just barely not aggro and drop it there.

The last line the dwarf says is "Tell you what... we have all sorts of stuff here we don't really need. Can I offer you something?"

Then he doesn't give you anything. Guess they forgot to itemize this quest =(

IT WONT WORK FOR ME!!!!!1WTF

Comment by 36164

Enter "Bladespire Grounds" @ 45.50 and start getting them drunk around that place. Enough room to avoid any Ogre.

Comment by Gymnos

As a rogue, I could just sneak up next to one and open combat by placing the mug down. I found it very easy.

Comment by 4361

Remember, Borgrim Stouthammer wants his empty keg back. If you threw it away after it was used up, you can't turn in the quest and have to abandon/restart it.

Comment by 18541

As druid you can go flightform just after deploying the keg. this way they wont attack you.. I think you actually can do it 5 times on same mob this way.

Comment by 51879

I found stupid that they don't provide you with another keg if you fail. I was in my last charge and someone had the brilliant idea to kill my ogre as he walked by (so i didnt get the quest done).

Oh well, be careful :)

Comment by shexna

this is quite easy.
just place the kegs close to the orges, without aggroing, it worked for me, (66hunter), though if you get down to 5charges, i suggest you place it infront of patrols.

Comment by redback

You should be able to gather more brew from the bloodmauls if you use up all the charges before you finish

Comment by 30936

You can give beer to the same ogre over and over... you just have to wait for the 30 seconds cooldown of the item

Comment by 68759

they aggro to the beer within 40 yards! also when they "drink" the beer they attack u! VERY easy for hunters cause they place the beer and when they aggro..feign death! :)

Comment by 99597

and just for info u can drunk the same ogre over and over....

Comment by Palm

Best to combine with "The bladespire ogres" quest.

Comment by gratscot

I found that you can drop it and shadowmeald quikly.
Only have to wait like 10 seconds for the thing to finish drinking

I've seen Orges walk OVER these things like on top of them, and nothing happened. 6 Screenshots proven.

Rate this comment + if you're having trouble too

Comment by Dymyr

I have the same problem as coyote72...

Comment by Ladno

You can just stick them at the ogre's feet a s you aggro them. As long as the ogres walk over the beer then it should work.

Comment by 144993

i found something out when i was doing this quest on my rogue,
if you aggro them once they've picked the mug up, they will start hitting you with the mug instead of there mace thing

Comment by TenaciousD

As a hunter, dismiss your pet, put the keg down, when you get aggro use feign death :)

Comment by 325528

This is how i did it.
Step 1 Get the quests to kill 30 ogres and to kill there 3 leaders along with the bear quest
Step 2 Kill your way to 1 of the bosses and place a beer down the ogre your supposed to kill walks away from the 2 elite guards and drinks the beer attack him and kill him the boss is easy to kill cant say the same for the 2 elite guards
Step 3 Go to next boss and reapeat step 2
Step 4 Kill the rest of the ogres needed for quest and get the other 2 ogres needed drunk
Step 5 Collect Reward

(Hope you found this helpfull)

Comment by sTyLnK

If you have your flying mount which most people should have, just drop a beer near a brute ogre then fly away before he reaches you, repeat process until you have 5 brute ogres drunk. Simple. =]

Comment by Peter4730

The trick is this .... make sure the placing of the brew is the action which aggros the brute. NO POINT in placing the brew between you and the brute, and then pulling the brute toward you. The brute will simply hop over the brew ! It's a fine judgement ..... getting to know the point where the placement will pull the brute. Guess that's why they give you 10 brews to get 5 brutes drunk. You get a few to practice with. (Also, once the brute has gotten himself drunk, he will STILL come at you, so you need to kill him. Also, look out for those raptors ..... they seem to come out of nowhere).

Comment by 802716

The easiest way to do this was to this if a rogue, go stealth go stand near the cook (43,48), its kind of a hill you can stand to were you are facing the cook and the brutes come out to eat, they sit. put the booze down and back up they smell it and drink it then kill it, since you have to kill 30 its handy!

Comment by Gimroth

This quest is best combined with the ones handed out by Vindicator Vuleen, who is 'trapped' in a cage at the eastern entrance to the Bladespire camp. She hands out quests that require you to use the booze to lure bossy mobs away from their elite protectors.
The first quest she gives is The Trappings of a Vindicator, allowing you to cross off two ogres for this quest.

Getting the Bladespire Tanked

Use the Bloodmaul Brutebane Keg in an attempt to get 5 Bladespire Ogres drunk.

	Bladespire Ogres drunk (5)
	Bloodmaul Brutebane Keg (Provided) (1)

Description

I'll not take another sip of that ill-smelling muck! But it does give me an idea.

<Borgrim gets a twinkle in his eye.>

So here's the plan. We know that the Bloodmaul practically live off of this swill. But I wonder what their enemies, the Bladespire ogres, think of it?

<name>, I want you to take the rest of this rubbish and see if you can get the Bladespire ogres tanked. You can find them by heading north from Bloodmaul Outpost through the ravine.
