How to get those 'barrels' resources? I can't find them anywhere (need 5)

Comment by Ritmann1987

Rumors had it that you'll need to collect those "barrel" resources in Tanaan Jungle, where i don't know...yet!

Comment by 1306699

Do the bonus missions, the ones where you need to get 100% and it awards barrels of oil + apexi crystals

Comment by Aca87

Well there is a easy way to get oil atm. Just go to Lion's Watch located in Tanaan jungle cords are 58.60. And inside of one of the buildings u will see a table (same as table in your garrison) with 2 daily quests. just pick one and finish bonus objective. And as reward you will get 2k AC and 600 oil. Reward can be changed any time cos of PTR

Yeah... just drag the ship into the placeholder and you can do the mission....

Comment by Vana21

If you couldn't find the mission table like myself, its not down the stairs but to the right of them

Comment by SpareSimian

The "Start Mission" button told me I didn't have enough ships for the mission. Disabling all addons (I have a lot) fixed it. It's possible it's one of the mission planner addons.

Comment by Carlosmajere

A really GREAT trick to complete Shipyard level 2 Upgrading The Fleet;

When you get the this quest Naval Commander use the fleet command table, when the first SHIP quest (just 1minute) It's done collect the reward from the command table but DO NOT turn it. Instead ABANDON the quest. Do it again 13 times. The 13th time TURN IT... and voilá when Upgrading The Fleet appears its complete.

Why 13 times? Because after Naval Commander you have to complete 2 quest more.

Maybe you cannot use this in your main, but I'm sure that many of your alts can take advantage of this ;)

Also you win the achievement Naval Training Specialist :D

Comment by Bleausy

Well I am having the same problem as SpareSimian, The Start Mission" button tells me I do not have enough ships for the mission, So I disabled all of my addon buttons, and reloaded the UI but I'm still getting the same message, not sure what else to do from here? Anyone else know how to get around this?

BARRELS OF OIL. One source not mentioned above is from Missions by your followers, which you initiate in your town hall. (For me, they started to appear as rewards as soon as I made the initial foray to Tanaan).
