Cro, calm down! You don't need to yell at the old lady all the time.

I HAVE CRUSHED AN APPLE, FRUIT VENDOR

Comment by cobo4231

We all thought poor Cro was finally getting better when we saw him at the Darkmoon Faire; but it seems that not only has he relapsed; he's lost whatever tiny grip on sanity he may have once had...

Comment by JaykayFactor

Well, it looks like all these years later he wasn't lying. If war is what you want, war is what you will get fruit vendor.

Comment by Konig

For those of you wondering if this can be stealthed: no. You gotta kill trash mobs.

Comment by Spring

If anyone is puzzled by who this NPC is, or the highly rated comments here, see Cro Threadstrong and this link. Read his quotes and note the trivia section at the bottom of the Wowpedia link.

I have long been a fan of Cro Threadstrong and his vendetta against the nefarious fruit vendor, and always wondered if Blizzard would keep running with it. Now when he says

YOUR OGRE DOESN'T SCARE ME, FRUIT VENDOR! MY ARMY IS ON ITS WAY!

it occurred to me that we, and our followers, our garrison, all the supplies and work and forces assembling in Draenor...

We are Cro's army.

I'm fine with that.

Classes that are good at soloing should give that a try for this one. As a guardian druid with ilvl ~635 I got the quest item from one of the two first ogres. I rooted one of them and killed the other one, then I killed the rooted one.

For talents I used Cenarion Ward, Force of Nature and Pulverize. Treants can tank the mobs until you overaggro them with no trouble. There's plenty of time to re-root the other ogre since the ogre will be tanked by the treant and also stop attacking to charge up with frontal AoE, but you might wanna spec mass root as back-up.

While the treants are tanking you can also leave bear form and heal up with HT. In hindsight I should probably have specced HotW and changed to cat while not tanking to speed it up.

The entrance to the instance is in northern Frostfire Ridge.

Ok this is weird. I completed this and in my Garrison there is a bright yellow question mark but I cannot find the NPC to turn this into anywhere in my Garrison! Who is the NPC that gave me this? LOL Help!

Comment by Vazzie

I went in alone, made 100% sure it was on heroic, killed an ogre. No head.
Killed second ogre, no head.
Made sure AGAIN it was on heroic, yep, it was.
Killed four more ogres, no head, hearthed.
Guess I'm unlucky or something.

Comment by gonzuluz

For those, like me who picked this up and didn't do it that day, along with Time-Lost Vikings. The people to turn them in to are behind the inn. There are comment replies to tell you, but this needed it's own post.

Comment by Thaodan

Now requires to kill the end boss too.
Like with all other Inn quest, to prevent lfd groups to split up after getting the quest item as i think.

Comment by LeoZan

If your quest is bugged as mine was and stating following:

Cro's Revenge
1/1 Giant Ogre Head (Complete)... But not the...
0/1 Gug'rokk slain...
Your Cache is playing you a naughty evil trick... delete your wow cache folder.

- This could also explain why you cannot find or see the Quest Reward, NPC.

To fix the Display issue do as following:

Open the Battle.net app and select World of Warcraft on the left-side of the app.
Click the Options dropdown menu and select Show in Explorer.
Double-click the World of Warcraft folder.
Delete the Cache folder.
Restart World of Warcraft.

This also was a bug caused my quest Time-Lost Vikings.
1/1 Olaf's Shield (Complete).
0/1 Gug'rokk slain.
- NPC is standing behind your Inn (level 3 Garrison).

Note: Almost every quest from your INN, have a concept of "Loot item" + Kill.
- This will not go for every quest but most are build up this way so pay extra attention to it.

Recommended TIP! = Use quests Items (those you can) On-cooldown, when and where it is needed!
Helps Healer and some are every really funny aswell, "monk with (warrior)-Leap" haha!

Edit: remade post to simplify the problem with the quest.

Comment by BlizzardCS

If you are unable to turn the dungeon quest in at your Garrison Inn, you may have missed the last boss for the dungeon. A display issue caused these quests to show as complete before the final dungeon boss was defeated. Follow the steps below to resolve the display issue on your client:

Open the Battle.net app and select World of Warcraft on the left-side of the app.
Click the Options dropdown menu and select Show in Explorer.
Double-click the World of Warcraft folder.
Delete the Cache folder.
Restart World of Warcraft.

The Lunarfall Inn and Frostwall Tavern quest NPCs may not all be present at the same time when handing in a large amount of quests. Leaving the garrison area and then returning will change which NPCs are there, and you should be able to hand in your quests.

Comment by Aaahead

Note that the head drops off trash mobs. I joined the dungeon with two bosses down, with most trash dead. The map shows that the ogre head can be anywhere in most of the dungeon, which I searched fruitlessly; had to wait another day for the dungeon lock to reset.

The nostalgia boils my bones

Comment by cshellyb

Just so that you all know, if you manage to get into a group that's already up to the last boss, and as long as they haven't killed all the ogres, you can loot the head off an ogre after the final boss was killed.

This happened to me just now, and was able to hand it in to the NPC which was on the 2nd level of the level 3 inn.
There's also no problem with getting the head if you're the last person left in the instance (if you can kill it by youself of course) :)

When i finished the instance i looked into my inventory and saw the head in there and thought "Why's the mask thingie still there" and deleted it. I realised later it was needed to finish the quest fml.

Comment by jjanchan

Both objectives for this, and all Lunarfall Inn/Frostwall Tavern quests can be completed in Mythic difficulty.

Comment by Chamoise

Recognizing this is old, wanted to say a couple of things...

I completed this quest on a 101 Demonhunter in starter gear. Killed Gug'rokk on NORMAL and it counted towards quest completion. Exited instance and switched difficulty to HEROIC in order to loot the ogre head. Failed to turn in the quest at my garrison because wearing the Ogre head is much cooler than getting a fruit basket, imo.

Comment by xLunacyx

Just tried this quest during Chromie time and no giant ogre head dropped. Maybe I just got unlucky?
Ran the dungeon multiple times and never found a giant ogre head.

Comment by Olla

Fairly easy now.

I pulled every Ogre I could run into on the way to the first boss on Mythic difficulty, managed to see two drop once they all died.

Comment by Mozarella2006

For anyone else wondering where Cro is after building the inn/tavern, the 'visitors' are on a daily rotation. Come back tomorrow and check if he's there to offer the quest.

Comment by Nevada

I sent my hunter into the Slag Mine. She tracked humanoids and literally killed every ogre except one. That is the one to the left as you enter the mine that is out of range and inaccessible. He must be the one with the head. She even killed the one hanging from the ceiling of the Slag Forge. Her pets fetched everything that was dropped from her kills.

The only thing left alive in the mine were the slaves.

Links

Cro's Revenge

Collect a Giant Ogre Head from the Bloodmaul Slag Mines.

	Giant Ogre Head (1)
	Gug'rokk slain (1)

Description

HA! The fruit vendor was so cunning, but I, Cro Threadstrong, am even MORE cunning. I have come back into the past to defeat the ogre army before that fruit vendor can turn them against me!

Bring me the head of a big, strong ogre from the old slag mines, and I will have crushed the fruit vendor before a single apple has even grown!

CAN YOU HEAR ME, FRUIT VENDOR? I WILL HAVE MY VICTORY!
