There's nothing to shoot for the first minute or so, don't freak out looking around for stuff like I did. The guns look just like all the other harpoon cannons, MAKE SURE YOU SHOOT THEM. Their range boarders on unreasonable, they WILL kill the plane.

If you just ran to pick up quests via questhelper and don't know what to do - you hop on a turret that's on the front of a plane (at ground level) and it flies you to the area to complete the quest - it's a tiny little alliance quest hub close to the area.

Kommentar von ROMAD27

Gives 250 Valiance Expedition rep.

Kommentar von Graveworm

The turrets die in one shot, so when you fire move to the next target, If you get blown up, just go back and hop on another plane. It doesnt matter which drops you do as long as you do 4 total so you could do the first one 4 times.

Kommentar von 10269

Targeting is such a pain for this quest, and if your plane blows up, you got to wait for your plane to arrive there again, and it takes so long. An annoying quest for sure.

Kommentar von 256605

OK the ( HARPOONS) are in YMIRHEIM for those of u who dont know what SHOOT THEM is because ppl now a days are soo vauge

Kommentar von 240744

tried shooting the harpoons but none of them would take any dmg so i just ran the quest twice.

I'd get 2 drop offs before I burned down so it wasn't so bad.

Also after I crashed I just flew back to questor and got another plane right away.

Almost easier not to target just let it go on its own.

Kommentar von 25987

read the quest...

"just fire a round near any gun and the smoke should block its sight and clog its gears."

you are not supposed to damage anything, just block all the guns so u get through the village and drop 4 ppl without getting shot down.

Kommentar von Zaphiron

Tried to do the quest today, I made it all the way through but the plane did not drop anyone off. Bugged.

Kommentar von Kinta

Yes, this quest is a pain in the ass. No, it's not impossible. You just need to do it a few times so that you can remember the basic layout of where the harpoon guns are. There are some guns that seem to start shooting at you from ridiculous ranges, and the MOMENT they see you. Which is kinda bull, since it doesn't take too many hits before you're screwed.

Oh, and for those of you who make it all the way through the end, you can hop out of the plane after getting your 4 drop offs without worry. Instead of waiting 5 minutes for the plane to spin around and go towards the ground.

Kommentar von Gemini4t

I find that no matter how many of the harpoon guns I manage to tag, I still get shot down after only 2 drops...

So now I just do two runs and don't bother to put any effort into it.

Kommentar von EvilTomte

Last few runs of these I've just gone afk after I've mounted the gun.

Each time I'll drop off 2 so by the time I'm back I just fly back down and mount the gun again. (Don't be afk too long though, there are some mobs down there below your parachute).

Barely any effort, quest completed.

Kommentar von 227157

I just finished this, and found when i was above the camp, I got dropped out with no parachute, no slow fall or anything, any1 else getting this?

Kommentar von 269149

When I first started this quest I did not like it very much on account i would fire a Suppression charge (the only attack the ship has) and the missile would 50% of the time disappear before it reached its target. After doing the quest day after day I learned a few techniques that i thought might help someone doing it for the first time.

-The Suppression charge has a range of 100 yards, so keep in mind that just because your Turret is aimed on a spear gun, you may be too far away, and your SC will not hit it.

-Aim low, near walls.You don't have to hit the gun, just around or near the gun. I like to aim for the ground but I've accidentally hit the walls near them and it still knocks the spear gun out.

-It is OK to get hit once each spear gun, some you can not avoid but make sure that if you did miss or fire too early that you do NOT move on to the next gun. Ignoring 1 gun can shoot your plane down.

-Just because your SC does not have a cooldown does not mean you should fire it like a machine gun! Take your time when firing, it is better to be late and get hit once than to miss.

Lastly If its your first time running the quest take your time finding each gun. It can be hard to get all 4 soldiers dropped in 1 pass. I dont know if this will help anyone with the quest but noticing these things made it a lot easeir for me.

Kommentar von PWOMatrix

Careful if you finish this quest. You get dropped with no Parachute. Stupid Blizzard.

Kommentar von 259138

Best bet is just to hit every building, and only drop off the first two, jump out, redo the first part again to get the last 2 soldiers on the ground.

Kommentar von 74836

If you accept this daily while on your reindeer mount you will be flying around on the plane while still sat on your reindeer. Mad
Also on the frostborn eagle daily in storm peaks, it seems any quest vehicle that you can mount while on a flying mount this happens. Can someone report on what happens if you try to mount a personal vehicle like a 3 person mammoth or motorbike please, only difference being that these are land mounts.

Kommentar von Seprest

Did it once, and you definitely need to pay attention, sometimes, even though the smoke is clearly covering a harpoon gun, it will not get the debuff/stop firing. Almost everytime each harpoon gun will get one shot at you.

Kommentar von 288335

Finish it first time, not that hard, but my plane did get down to 17k hp.

And i did not get dropped down and died it flew back to the camp.

Kommentar von 5409

Far as I'm concerned this is one of the worst quests function-wise right now. It can be solved by increasing the speed of the projectile. As of right now if I fire when I see the turret the smoke won't register. I will hit it dead on or below and then as I get a little closer I see no smoke triggered. It appears for best to wait a few second after you see it before you fire. Which sucks when coming up on a group of 3, I think I'll wait long enough, fire 1 ...2 ...3 and see that either I missed or one didn't register...have to fire again and then by that time the next guns are coming in range. So I fire again and maybe too soon, not seeing exactly how long the gun was in range.

Easy but annoying that the mechanics are not as slick as they could be.

My advice...drop 2 then exit and get another vehicle.

Kommentar von 65410

One very convenient thing I accidentally discovered is that, like many of these new "vehicle-type" mounts, this plane allows you to ride it while mounted.

In my case, I was still on my flying Headless Horseman's mount while riding in the turret...so when the plane inevitably got shot down, I found myself floating harmlessly in the air.

This was a most convenient way of avoiding fall damage or finding myself landing in the middle of a large mob of angry viking dudes (after already being half dead from fall damage). I'm sure this will be fixed at some point, but take advantage of it while it lasts - jump on the turret while mounted on your flying mount.

Kommentar von 126460

This quest is actually quite easy. For those of you (like myself) who were vastly confused about the turrets that kill you, you just need to look for them. They're mounted on the tops of houses and on ledges, depending where you are in the region. They essentially look like the gun that you're shooting.

When you see one, shoot it and move on to the next. I don't understand people getting swamped by them. I got shot only a couple times the entire run and did a full one the second time I went through. Happy shooting!

Kommentar von Jrubzjeknf

Some quest. I help a plane through enemy territory by taking down all their turrets and as a thank-you, I get booted out and fall to my death.

For the extremely lazy:

You will always drop two passengers each time you go up in the plane, even if you don't shoot any of the cannons. Therefore, if you hop in the plane twice, and /afk while its flying you can complete the quest without doing anything.

Just be careful when you land! If you're afk you may agro a nearby Vykrul while landing and die.

Kommentar von 344122

I have found, what really helps is selecting the turret before you shoot, as right before you see the animation of the supression charge, you are able to see whether the turret takes the debuff or not, to ensure that you do not miss any.

Kommentar von Margrethe

Hello,

I have finally mastered how to do this daily in one complete run after spending several days only managing to drop two soldiers and eventually wrecking my plane.

It is important to remember that it is only worth firing no more than two shots at each spear gun during your mission as the aim is NOT to destroy these spear guns, merely to clog their vision.

Make sure you keep looking all around you in the plane and fire a couple of shots at each spear gun as you go, the mission is actually longer than I guess most people think and you'll get time to replenish energy at certain points in the mission.

Two men always (to me anyway) drop in the middle of the village and once the plane banks to the left you need to pick off the spear guns on the left hand side, remember, just a couple of shots each should do it.

You don't need to keep an eye on the health of the plane if you follow my example. Just remember, don't start firing rapidly and leaving yourself no energy for later on during the mission.

Hope this helps,
Margrethe

Kommentar von Sumaxu

The range of your cloud gun is pretty low, it's about the same as the weapons you're trying to counter. Fortunately, the travel time of the projectile doesn't actually matter, as the guns will shut down as soon as you take a successful shot, regardless of where the shot appears to be.

The best way to judge your range without wasting energy is to wait for the cannons to take one shot at you. If you fire at them as soon as this happens, you'll notice them immediately go back to their inert state. You'll take some damage, but it shouldn't be nearly enough to kill you before the end of the run.

Kommentar von Stupp

I found that the easiest way to do it was to scroll in all the way, that way you get full controll over your aim. It gets much easier to spot the cannons

Kommentar von 253868

Try to check that there are 4 other passengers (besides the pilot) in the plane. A few times when I've done this quest and completed the route, I only received credit for dropping 3 passengers off. Though I can't confirm if the plane ever has fewer than 4 passengers, the quest may simply be bugged.

Gay daily quest

Kommentar von Sheason

Here's something I don't understand about this quest. I realize that the people of the Warcraft Universe are supposed to be relatively new to the whole "flying" concept and all, but that's no excuse for this kind of stupidity. What do I mean? Simply this: YOU DON'T SEND IN A SINGLE AIRCRAFT OVER A HOT ZONE. Unless you have so many planes the enemy can't hope to target them all, sending in aircraft over an area littered with anti-air defenses like Ymirheim is just stupid.

Idea for a better quest to do instead: After you finish Assault By Ground, you go in further and disable the spear guns. For each spear gun you disable, you send up a flare - which spawns a troop carrier to drop off some more infantry. Do that 4 times and the quest is done.

But of course, this is pointless anyway since it's just a stupid nerd @#$%^ing about things nobody really gives a &*!@ about, so whatever.

Kommentar von 613106

In case there is any question, you get in the plane right next to the quest giver in order to shoot down the spear guns. :)

Kommentar von 527299

62,50 is correct - do it once, you usually drop 3 guys, chute down, kill 20, go back to 62.50, drop one more, 2 quests done, rinse, move on

Kommentar von Etreum

They finally changed the targeting system! Hooray! Now it is easy.

- Make sure you have four paratroopers in the ship before you take off

- The fourth will parachute at the very end

Kommentar von 786533

I can get through this quest with only one or two hits on the plane, it's quite easy
I found the comments confusing, so i thought I'd summarize

a) getting the quest
you have to have started and completed the quests at Argent Vanguard.
you have to have talked to Father Gustav and done "The Crusaders Pinnacle"
you have to have talked to Marshal Ivalius inside the tower at crusaders pinnacle and gotten "The Skybreaker"
Find the Skybreaker and turn in quest to Justin Bartlett and the other quests on the skybreaker will be available.

Go to the deck above Justin Bartlett and talk to Knight-Captain Drosche and get the quest, "Joining the Assault"

fly down to Ground Commander Koup, complete the quest and that will make his quests available.

b) doing the quest
there is a plane on the ground near Ground Commander Koup, point at the cockpit and right click to mount the plane

The point of this quest is to provide cover for the guys parachuting out of the plane.

it takes a few minutes for the plane to fly to where the first cannon is, as soon as your first guy jumps, you are in the gauntlet and will be fired upon so be ready

you need to point, aim and fire ONCE at the base of each anti aircraft cannon, creating a cloud of smoke so that they can't aim at you.

if you fire more than once at each cannon, you run out of energy, so you need to pay attention to where the anti aircraft cannons are and be ready to shoot as soon as your target turns green and aim correctly.

if you fail, simply fly down and get another plane and finish up

Kommentar von 836440

This quest must have been fixed as of 4.2. The turrets go down in one hit and I got 4 passengers dropped off in one trip. :)

Kommentar von Vellavere

Fun (insignificant) fact: This quest will give you Wie tief kann man fallen? when you are dropped off if you do not have it already.

Kommentar von multiversekyle

Just a note since this shows up first on a Google search, this is the Alliance quest page. If you are looking for the Horde quest of the same name, you want this one: Luftangriff

Kommentar von Fluffmeister

Yup, seems a pointless quest. First time I couldn't work out what I was supposed to do, and it dropped 2 anyway. Then I read this thread, and still didn't have any luck dropping the charges, but it still dropped another 2 infiltrators and I completed the quest. So it seems like you can complete the quest by doing absolutely nothing, or by firing the charges, and it doesn't make much difference either way.

Kommentar von LazarianJerr

where do i find the damn turret ? LOL

Kommentar von Nocked

Wait, so I fire like 50 rounds at 20 turrets and only get 3/4 infiltrators dropped and have to run it again, firing another 50 rounds? This quest is weird.

Kommentar von Califree

Made the full round without being shot down, "blocked" every gun, thought I am so darned 1337! Did not drop off a single fighter. Didn't even HAVE any aboard. This is my...11th? alt to go through this zone, and this quest is buggier than ever.

Went back and tried again, and this time turned around and made sure I had all four Infiltrators (plus the pilot). The second time, it worked the way it was supposed to.

So...check your passengers before trying to drop them!

Kommentar von BlueLizzard3

Did this get harder in some patch? Instead of dropping 2 if you do nothing, for me it drops just 1.

Even so -- my advice: do nothing while flying. Just hop in and sit back. You'll be shot down after you drop 1 of the 4, then go back to the start point and repeat. Doing nothing is less frustrating than trying to smoke the hard-to-spot cannons that out-range you with the poor controls given. If you struggle and try to be useful each flight, you'll get better each time, but you'll still have to fly multiple times anyway. Why bother?

Blizzard, why force a quest on us where the hero feels like baggage?

Luftangriff

Feldkommandant Koup an der Kante des Gletschers im Osten von Ymirheim hat Euch befohlen, den Geschützturm der Himmelsbrecher zu benutzen, um den Truppentransporter der Himmelsbrecher lange genug in der Luft zu halten, bis alle abgeworfen wurden.

	Spitzel der Himmelsbrecher abgeworfen (4)

Beschreibung

Ich habe ein paar geeignete Jungs, die bereit sind, in Ymirheim abgeworfen zu werden. Ihr könntet mir helfen, indem Ihr sie sicher dorthin bringt.

Dort haben die Vrykul so etwas wie automatische Speerkanonen aufgebaut, um unsere Transporter auszuschalten. Wir haben unsere Ingenieure einen Geschützturm bauen lassen, mit dem Rauchgranaten abgeschossen werden können, um diesen Speerkanonen etwas entgegenzusetzen. Schießt einfach in die Nähe der Kanonen. Das sollte ihre Sicht blockieren und sie außer Kraft setzen.

Setzt Euch an einen der Türme und sorgt dafür, dass alle meine Jungs in einem Stück zu ihrem Abwurfgebiet gelangen.
