Westbrook Garrison is a barracks located in Forest's Edge on the western end of Elwynn Forest near the border with Westfall. Beyond the garrison lie the dry fields of Westfall, once controlled by agents of the Defias Brotherhood and their dreaded mechanical harvest golems.

South of the garrison the forest is full of Riverpaw gnolls. Beyond, only a river separates Elwynn Forest from shadowy Duskwood.

Several wanted posters at the garrison give the quest to kill Hogger, an elite gnoll found in the camps to the south.

The garrison holds Elwynn's western border and protects the region from gnoll attacks. The soldiers and mercenaries within are a loud and brawling bunch, eager for tales from the road; they enjoy a good mug of ale and a good fight.[1]

There are several military units in Westbrook Garrison, and Captain Sumner Trask is one of the commanding officers there. The Garrison holds the community of Westbrook and ensures that gnolls and bandits do not gain a strong foothold in Stormwind-held territory. The Stormwind Guard tends to use Westbrook Garrison as a testing ground for newly initiated knights.[2]

Westridge
The map of Azeroth in Lands of Conflict misspells the name of the garrison as "Westridge G." instead of "Westbrook G." and several other minor mentions about a community called Westridge are made.[3] However, Westridge doesn't appear in the index at the end of the book, and the misspelling of "Westbrook Garrison" suggests that all mentions of Westridge were instead meant to be about the community of Westbrook situated near the garrison.

Brann Bronzebeard aided a dam building crew near Westridge for a week of free ale.

Hogger is a level 11 elite named Riverpaw gnoll chieftain in Southern Elwynn Forest. A quest exists offering a reward for his killing from the Westbrook Garrison in Elwynn Forest, near the border with Westfall. He is an indirect agent of the Defias Brotherhood along with the rest of his Riverpaw tribe.

Hogger has a reputation as a particularly dangerous foe, primarily due to him being one of the first elite mobs a human character will run into. Thus, new players will sometimes, ignorant of what the gold dragon portrait indicates, horribly underestimate him and get themselves killed rather quickly by engaging him.

For most classes he can be soloed relatively easily from level 14 onward, although a level 9/10 hunter or warlock can easily solo him using their pet and voidwalker to tank. Adventurers below that level are advised to find some friends before attempting to slay him. Strategies to solo him with the various classes is shown below. Another way to solo him is by kiting him to the nearby tower and let the two guards kill him for you.

You must be sure to do most of the damage, however, because if you don't do enough damage on your own before the guards get him, you will not get loot rights for his corpse. Mages and other cloth wearers should usually find a group to fight him, because Hogger hits fairly hard on cloth wearers. You should also watch out for any Gnoll mobs nearby that he might accidentally aggro on to you, and add to the difficulty in killing Hogger.
