Description

Judging by your weight, build, and size, we're going to dress you as a troll. The Smolderthorn trolls have always worked with the Blackrock orcs, so you'll fit right in.

Do you know much about tailoring? If not, then consider this your first lesson. My crafting table over there has all the necessary supplies on it.

Go ahead and grab whatever you think is necessary, then bring it here. Thelaron will fix you right up.

I got 3,2,1, and that worked. Don't know if this counts for everyone, or if it's random.

I'm a female Belf. (Thanks for the tip izuul)

So, for those of you who didn't have this quest available right out of the gate and spent hours running around trying to find the starter quests to get over here to do the precursors to get the new flamefly pet here are a few tips.

First you must do all the quests at Flamestar Posts. Alllll of them, even the ones with the little goblin up the road a bit. After you do all of them you will get a quest to kill mobs on your way to Chiselgrip post.

Once you are at Chiselgrip you will need to talk to Stebben Oreknuckle. After doing so you can talk to Eitrigg

Talk to Eitrigg and he will have to go talk to Thelaron Direneedle and he will give you this quest.

There will be a little table next to him with some glittery fabric on top of it. Click on the fabric and for a BE I used the 3 hides -> 2 mud -> 1 thread as suggested above and it worked like a charm.

Good luck farmers ^_^

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • A Needle in a HellholeBurning Steppes · Level 15-30

    Lok'tar, <class>. My name is Eitrigg, of the Argent Crusade... formerly of the Warchief's Honor Guard. Before that, of the Blackrock orcs. I trust my son has briefed you on our plan. He hasn't? That is probably for the better. The next part of the plan is going to require a bit of subtlety.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Prove Yer AllegianceBurning Steppes · Level 15-30

    Yer welcome to stay in Chiselgrip for a time, but I need to know that yer a friend. So I've got a task for ye. We of the Thorium Brotherhood're not the only dark irons here in the steppes. Far from it. We're pretty badly outnumbered by the dark irons of Blackrock Mountain.
