Description

You see the problem? No you don't. Problem isn't all these dang quilboar. Quilboar I can shoot all day. Been shootin' em all my life, since my pappy gave me my first gun. Problem is these pigs are tough. Tougher'n they've been before. Can't kill em like I used to, see? My new modified bullets just get stuck in them and they refuse to die! Here, take my knife. Go out there and kill some of the quilboar and get my ammo back. Then I can shoot the rest! I won't stop 'till there's none left to shoot!

Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.
