High Chief Winterfall

Donova Snowden in Winterspring wants you to defeat High Chief Winterfall.
  •  
High Chief Winterfall slain

Description

While we still know very little about why the furbolg have been ingesting this strange substance, I do think it's best that we put a stop to it before it gets out of hand.

The Winterfall furbolg are not a normally aggressive tribe, and this change in their behavior leads me to think that they must be under orders from their chief. We most likely can't undo the damage that has already been done, but I think that if their leader is slain, they will not get any worse.

Head east to Winterfall Village.

Reward

You can choose one of these awards:
Crystal Breeze Mantle
Fernpulse Jerkin
Willow Band Hauberk

Progress

Maybe you will find out more in Winterfall Village, <name>.

Completion

Thank you so much, <name>. I hope to get back to my studies without worry that I will be ambushed. Please accept this as a reward.

Gains

Upon completion of quests, get:
  • 640 experience (38 40 at max. level)
  • 250 Reputation with Everlook

The Chief is in the cave above the winterfall village (NOT the Yeti cave!). Respawn seems to be about 5-10min.
He is surrounded by 2 non elites and the Chief by himself is a very easy elite, you just need some way to CC the adds.

Also before you start the fight make sure the winterfall runners are not going to jump you from behind since they do end their run here.

After you kill him he drops a book that will give you another quest that you turn in to Donovan (same person that gave you this quest). So be sure to loot him before you run away from the mob

If you do Are We There, Yeti? (https://vanillawowdb.com/?quest=5163 https://vanillawowdb.com/?quest=5163) first, you can use the mechanical yeti reward to aggro one or both of the adds. By doing this I soloed it quite easy as a 58 druid.

Co-ords are 69,38. The boss also gives nice Timbermaw rep.

High Chief is non-elite as of patch 2.3.0 (and many other mini-bosses are), isn't a problem to solo now.

Just completed this with my druid (55) I found it best to kill the add first, seeing as it was a shaman and If my memory serves me correctly they can heal so try kill him first then quickly knock down Chiefy himself.

No real trouble here you may want to clear the area outside a little if you want to fear the two but otherwise it shouldn't be difficult

* Be sure to pick up the book he drops as it leads on to another quest which gives a necklace Trinket

The trinkets are:

*Edits - was trying to insert bullet points buy they seem to be on the fritz!

Thought I'd add some information regarding the exp gained since someone already posted something about it.

At lvl 54 I got 12760 exp, albeit with +20% experience due to BoA-shoulders and chest.

And as others have already stated, there is only one 'add' with him in the cave :)

Counts towards Loremaster of Kalimdor achievement (as well as the two quests you get from picking up the quest starting item he drops https://vanillawowdb.com/?item=12842 https://vanillawowdb.com/?item=12842).
