This quest becomes available when your garrison follower "Bodyguard" Leorajh becomes your Personal Wingman, which is the third and last reputation level (2000 kills unless you are human and get 11 rep/kill).

The quest occurs in the same area as Assault on Skettis. See that quest description for ways of getting to the area, then follow your map/minimap to Kirox the Wind Dancer.

He is a typical rare in that he has about half a million hit points. The problem is his location. There are several patrolling Adherents of Rukhmar in the area on the ground and in the air. You will be joined by no less than 4 of these by the time your fight ends (unless you can kill him quickly ... you may have fewer. At least 4 with the clean-up in any respect). Also there is a flock of birds with low hp but heavy hitting bites. This flock will eat you quickly if you are unable to AOE them down quickly. These birds, plus the patrolling Adherents of Rukhmar make this a challenging fight. I managed to burn him down just as I died in a mass of fire and dark cloud pools. The more you move the more you aggro. My first attempt at Assault on Skettis was sitting in this area and attempting to do the quest. Took me hours and many deaths... now I know better. This area looks tame enough until you fight anything... the pile on begins. Take friends if you have them.

Fly to Akeeta's Hovel, go over the south bridge (back to Spires of Arak), head straight north once over the bridge and go up a steep cliff. Up the road you'll find Kirox. Kill him and loot the beads.

Leorajh does not need to be your active bodyguard while doing the quest.

An alternate route to get to this quest area is to go through Talador, south along the river that is east of Gordal Fortress. The closest horde flight path is at Terokkar Refuge; I'm not sure if alliance can use it as well, but it might be neutral.

None of the suggested alternate routes work, you just need to Fly to Akeeta's Hovel (65,17) in Shadowmoon Valley. Follow the trail north.

If you are a mage (or anything that can cloak you or hide you til you get there or once there to drop aggro) run through everything to Kirox and go invisible, then kill him. easy peasy!

Easiest way:

1) Fly to Akeeta's Hovel.

2) DO NOT go over the bridge. Instead, just follow the path straight north. You will still technically be in Shadowmoon Valley for this.

3) Cross the river into Skettis. Run past the guys, turning a bit towards the west.

4) Follow the trail up. You will start seeing sun guard guys. Keep going.

5) At the top of the mountain, you will see the dot for Kirox. Jump down off the little ledge and you'll land on his face. There are patting mobs at the top you may have to kill before you jump down first.

Hope this helps! Let me know if I can clear anything up.

IDK why but my leorajh was able to grant me access to my garrisons missions without completing the quest. at least when that happened he was 3/3 personal wing man i was on the quest.

From Akeeta's Hovel, cross the bridge to 61.63, 23.28 and head due north. The path will veer northwest. At the end of the trail is a rare. To the right of the rare, next to the river is a spine of rock (59.66, 14.87). The path is on that spine. The sooner you drop into the bonus objective area the faster you'll be fighting mobs . . . and more mobs. Ugh.

This is a REALLY complicated and slow way to get to Kirox with twice the adds. The easy way to is to fly to Crow's Crook and run back to the starter area. From the starter area is a short path going up the hill. Detail follows.

From Crow's Crook head north up the path that veers Northwest across the bridge. Stay on that path until it y's (45.20, 19.43). Take the right fork. On your mount run through the square where Sun-sage Rathyx flies and go out the opening on the other side (46.20, 14.64). Head up the hill at 45.50, 13.17. If you do this all on your mount and keep moving you can avoid the mobs. The entrance is at 46.49, 9.71 and you'll only need to fight a few lvl 100 mobs to reach Kirox.
