The Ogri'la are a faction of ogres in the Blade's Edge Mountains, where their proximity to Apexis Crystal has allowed them to evolve past their brutish nature. They are currently fighting a war against both the Black Dragonflight and the Burning Legion, who seek the Apexis Crystals for their own purposes.

Location

Ogri'la is situated near the western edge of Blade's Edge Mountains, between Forge Camp: Terror and Forge Camp: Wrath, just west of Sylvanaar. Ogri'la is only accessible by flying mount/form. If your reputation is honored or higher with Sha'tari Skyguard, you can also get a free ride to the quest hub.

Reputation

Reputation with Ogri'la can only be gained via questing, and their only repeatable quests are daily quests. Thus, there is a cap on how much reputation a day a player can gain reputation with Ogri'la, making it an "ungrindable" reputation.

Apexis Shards
Apexis Shard can be collected in a variety of ways. They can be looted from mobs, gathered from the environment, or they can be rewards from completed quests. They are the currency for items sold by the quartermaster, Jho'nass.Apexis Crystals
Apexis Crystal are dropped from elite demons and dragons in Blade's Edge Mountains. In order to summon these mobs, 35 Apexis Shards are needed, and it is recommended that you have a 5 man group to defeat them.

Quests
There are a number of quests that a player can to do earn reputation with the Ogri'la, as well as several [daily quests. Many of the daily quests will also grant reputation with the Sha'tari Skyguard when they are first completed.

In order to access the main quests at Ogri'la itself, a player must first complete the 5 group quests from Mog'dorg the Wizened.

Depleted Items

A number of "depleted" items will sometimes drop from mobs. When combined with 50 Apexis Shards, the items upgrade, gaining stats and gem slots. Once the items are upgraded they become Bind on Equip, and can therefore be sold or traded to other players. One thing to note, however, is that although the depleted items may also have stats or effects, they cannot be equipped.
