Let's see how to get this mission if you have never set foot in the fields of Ogri'la (which can be very common). At one point you will need 5 players but I don't think it will take you long to find a Death Knight willing to help you. If you intend to achieve the achievement, it is better that you look for a group as soon as possible to make the chains since then it is likely that everyone has them finished and does not want to help you:Starting the Ogri'la Mission Chain:The mission that starts the mission chain is Talk to the ogre.

Once we finish with the 3 Sons of Gruul, they will give us the mission Grimoso affair.
When we're done with him, we'll get the mission Inside the Soul Grinder that will force us to kill another of Gruul's children, nothing to write home about.Once you finish, we can finally start doing daily missions in Ogri'la with the mission of Ogres heaven. You will have to do the missions for a couple of days to get The emanation of the relic after which you can choose a couple of new missions. One of them is Our boy wants to be a Skyguard Ranger. It is necessary to do this mission, although it may be a bit difficult it is totally necessary.After having our flasks, take the mission The outpost of the Sky Guard.
After talking to the Commander, once the mission is finished, you will receive Bomb goes! but this is not the achievement mission but completing it will allow us to achieve the achievement mission.
Do the mission with your transformed mount and… Congratulations! Say goodbye to Ogri'la.
