Description

You fools speak of "big game" hunting like it is a thing of wonder. Bah! None know big game hunting like my kin. Mastery of the hunt, passed down from parent to child, for generations. I am here to prove it. I wager that you could not slay more than eleven of the ankylodon beasts that wander this region.

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.

    We are competing, you and I and these other savages. I find this... amusing. South of here you will find a number of diemetradons. I challenge you, <class>, to slay more of these creatures than I. Do you accept my wager?
