Suggested approach

Prepare the correct stage
Accept the combat follow-up after the camp scouting stage and check both counters. The first quest only discovers the camp; this record requires eight Pathfinders and five Windtalkers.
Follow the named objective
Pick the required enemy types rather than clearing every furbolg. Classic reference locations put them in the southern camp around 39–40, 52–57. Keep pulls small and use the beta map to confirm the camp layout before committing to a dense group.
Confirm credit and hand over
Check each kill requirement separately before returning to Auberdine. Completing the Pathfinder count does not satisfy the Windtalker line. Hand in to Terenthis and review any offered continuation instead of assuming every listed chain link is mandatory.

Planning notes

Second How Big a Threat? stage: two kill counters, not another exploration task. Match the stage by its objective and quest ID before combining this trip with other work. Keep confirmed collection credit separate from travel and conversation steps.

If progress stalls

ForeverDB explicitly labels unobserved target drop sources, hand-in coordinates and chain requirements as Classic reference. Those positions are orientation aids and may differ in the Forever beta.
