Description

{name}! I was hoping you would show up! Xanjo is nearly finished with de suit of ceremonial armor he has been working on, but dere is a problem. He says dat de thread he used is too thin, and dat de weight of de leather is ripping out de stitching. He asked me to get something dat will hold, and de best thing I can think of is de thick webbing of jungleweb crawlers. You can find dem in northern Vol'dun. Bring me back some strands of their thick webbing, and my knowledge of scales is yours.

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.
