Make sure to fight [npc=196206], which is a frog a little bit to the north outside the village (/way 14.24 47.59)

Don't be like me and die to the Trainer who gives you the quest over and over until I read the quest properly :D

Description

All right! Now that you used that stone on Lubbins, let's have a practice bout to test out his skills! There's a big ole Hornswog named Gwosh that lives on the shore to the north of here. Gwosh loves to fight! Well, play really. He's super good with other pets, too! It'll be a perfect playtime... I mean fight... for Lubbins.

Where to go

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.

    I think that I know what we gotta do, <name>. But first, let's talk about it! I even have a gift to give you after we're done! Fun, right?

  • This Calls for a SpecialistLevel 1-90

    Lubbins is doing lots better now, but I think he still needs some more help. A little bit ago I met a super smart Dragonscale Expedition explorer named Haniko who works with proto-drakes all the time. She's a pet trainer, too. I bet she could help Lubbins more!
