I found this quest to be a lot easier if you clear out the path to the silverwing hold and the little house as well before you start the quest. He will run directly in to the house and not have to fight his way in. When you get in the house he'll walk around for a second and then 4 mobs will come in. Healers can heal the NPCs and just let them fight. Keep Torek alive or you fail the quest. If you die and Torek is still up, don't release until he has killed the mobs, you should still get credit for the quest.

Completed last night without difficulty. I cleared the path up to the Outpost, and the Outpost itself, before running back and initiating the quest. Torek and his three henchmen then ran (no walking!) up inside the Outpost.

We waited maybe fifteen seconds or so before Duriel and three night elf NPCs spawned inside. After defeating them, Torek ordered me to report to Splintertree while he and his forces held the Outpost. I did not wait to see if/when he despawned.

Make sure that the other Horde warriors have spawned before you start the quest. The first time I attempted it, I was under the impression that he would summon help ... I was wrong.

In agreement with previous posters, clearing the path and the house first help speed the quest up.

Just tried twice today (30 July), and after clearing the house and running back to Torek, he summoned several other Orcs. But they never appeared! He runs to the house, and 5 (five!) NE appear and slaughter him. I couldn't keep up his health either time, and healing also drew aggro on me. Never stood a chance...

Tried as a 26 BE Priest. Will try once more, but I may wait on this one until later.

I'm not sure why so many previous comments were downrated. This quest is commonly bugged and hasn't been permanently fixed as of 2.2.3. It is useful information for players to know to contact a GM when it is bugged, and that it can only be fixed during maintenance. Common bugs are Duriel Moonfire and her escort not appearing after the outpost has been cleared and also Torek's escort not respawning after a failed attempt (though that is not really quest breaking).

You should also know that Torek does not regen health when out of combat, and bandaging him does not work. You can only heal him if you have a healing class in your group. If you are going to solo the quest then the above tips about clearing the area beforehand are a great help.

This guy doesn't stop to help if you attack mobs first, so just stand back and let him run in, if it's not clear.

The quest was super bugged for me. Torek did not have any henchmen to help out, and in addition, when he entered the outpost and the 4 mobs spawned, he didn't help fight at all, just walked around aimlessly.

However, after I failed, his 3 henchmen respawned and I completed the quest easily.

Same thing happened to me as Seed and mddd explained.
First time I tried, Torek was alone. I started over and he did have his guards with him that time. Confirmed he does not seem to regenerate out of combat unlike most other escorts.

DAMN I knew he had his guys the last time I played with my main, I thought the quest was nerfed or something, but I did it with him alone with my lvl 24 druid. Unfortunately, the 4 spawns went for me, Torek was busy with one of them and I tried to do the best with the other 3, including Duriel, which was a very close combat. I found out that running out of the house will force the foes to run back inside and fight Torek, so I had time to drink and eat, then I ran inside, healed Torek and finished off the guys... gl hf

I had problems with this quest; the group of NE after you take the building would never spawn. Eventually I got it to work, but there's two things I did differently so I'm not sure which one did it. The first thing I did was wait around when the night elves were supposed to spawn until the quest was marked as failed. And the second thing I did was ensure that all 4 orcs were alive when building was completely cleared out.

I figure waiting until the quest times out (a couple minutes) and gets marked as failed properly resets the encounter, whereas abandoning it at that stage does not.

Heh, and I just thought he was loony or something. Kept talking to his ""raiders"" that did not exist, I figured he'd gone crazy and they were imaginary friends (sort of like that dwarf in Burning Steppes that's loony). I was surprised to find he's supposed to have guards.

It's a good idea to make sure he has them before starting -- might work to start the quest, let him go die alone, abandon and restart.

To echo everyone else's comments; I cleared the whole area first, spoke to the NPC and accepted the quest. No NPCs came with Torek, so it was just me and him. We went straight inside the building, where four Elves ran in from behind us. I thought it would be a good idea to grab the aggro, so thunderclapped then got beaten senseless and died.. !

One long long corpserun later, I get back to my body, so sign of Torek or a boss, just dead Elves, ressed and faught back to Torek only to find him with his three friends, and I wasn't able to talk to him to restart the quest.

I looked in my log to drop what I thought was a failed quest, only for it to be complete. Huh?

Ah well. Very very bugged.

I have a theory about this quest.
Need to do some more testing on other chars though, but i think Duriel Moonfire spawns when Torek and his crew kills the nightelf out on that last 'balcony' or what you can call it.

Try letting Torek run in first and aggro the last nightelf on said balcony and see if it works better.
Though it's just a little theory on my part.

In the several dozen times I've done this quest, a couple of those times, Torek will be by himself at his hill, and you won't find his companions. Some long-term bug, they won't always respawn after someone completes this quest. Try either logging out and back in, to see if they've respawned. And again if they haven't. If they still don't respawn, come back to this quest later. You will -not- want to try this escort with just him and yourself.

Do -not- take this quest from Torek unless you also see his companions!

I'm new to the whole priest thing so I'm not sure if the following was suppose to happen, but I MC one of the NE.
Torek & Co killed the MC NE then killed me...

I completed this quest today on my Paladin. I failed the 1st time cause Torek probaly didnt aggro the mob on the balcony.
2nd try was a succes. Only difference were that I let Terok aggro the mob.

I had to do this quest twice, first I tried to do it with Torek and his companions, letting them helping me with killing the elves, but Duriel didn't spawn and the quest failed.

Then I tried to clear Silverwing Outpost by myself, and then going back to Torek and accepted the quest again, and when we reached the house and he was beside the balcony, Duriel spawned and I got the quest complete.

So, just clear it all and then go back to Torek and take the quest, and then it shouldn't bug :)

By Mkill on 04/03/2010 (Patch 3.1.3)

For me it worked the other way around.

First i tried clearing the Outpost, but then Duriel and the mobs didn't spawn.

On the second time, I killed the elves together with tored, and when we hit the house, the mobs came and i got quest completed.

Just did this quest, Torek had no henchman and I was fighting inside while the four mobs spawned so Torek was already on low health. He died before I was able to do anything. Still very bugged.

I can confirm that Torek - https://vanillawowdb.com/?npc=12858"">(NPC #12858) is still in the game as of Patch 4.0.3a. If he is not where he is supposed to be that only means that someone has recently started or finished the quest and just like any other escort quest you must wait for him to respawn.
