Description

Wow! That stuff is nasty. Not to account for gnoll taste or anything, but I figured whatever they had would at least be... edible? Let's get more creative. Tore's got an explosive dispenser north of town... not far from the big cavern entrance, can't miss it. I'm sure she intends them for mining purposes of some sort, but I've got a better idea. Grab one of those things and rush it to one of the nearby mammoths... most of them are to the west. Collect the meat, bring it back.

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.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Expression of GratitudeThe Storm Peaks · Level 25-30

    I know just the job for an eager newcomer! We've got a gnoll problem. You might even call it a gnoll infestation! Pesky things. They keep creeping up more and more, and now they're on our doorstep, stealing our parts! Inconceivable. It all begins and ends with their uppity leader, Gnarlhide.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Only Partly ForgottenThe Storm Peaks · Level 25-30

    Oi... it's like there's a propeller in my stomach. I think I can walk, but I got something nasty in my system when I got bit by something in the back of the cave. It was bigger than the other spiders... and brightly colored.
