Objectives

Use an Argent Cannon to destroy 100 Scourge Attackers. You must also kill 3 Frostbrood Destroyers.

Return to Siegemaster Fezzik should you succeed.

Description

I've triggered the base's defenses, <class>! Atop each of the Vanguard's four towers is a retractable Argent Crusade cannon, blessed by Father Gustav himself. You'll need to fly up to one of those towers and man a cannon. Use it to destroy the Scourge onslaught that the Lich King has deployed.

Just one warning, the Scourge will undoubtedly send their frost wyrms to lay siege the towers. Shoot them out of the sky! If they destroy the walls and towers of this base, we're done for!

Rewards

You will be able to choose one of these rewards:
[Cannoneer's Morale]
[Fezzik's Pocketwatch]
[Cannoneer's Fuselighter]

Progress

The screams of the dying will haunt me forever! Help them!

Completion

You have handled the cannon like a goblin gunner, friend. You've saved the Vanguard and the Argent Crusade - all the while backing the Highlord himself up on the field of battle! Amazing!

Notes

Shoot with the Argent Cannon until it has enough mana for the Reckoning Bomb, which unleashes the Reckoning upon the Scourge, inflicting ridiculous amounts of damage. Some might even say the damage is ludicrous.

The "Reckoning Bomb" attack is a reference to this video where a level 60 paladin soloed Lord Kazzak in the Blasted Lands that forced a nearly immediate hotfix to prevent it from happening again.
