When you investigate a body you will loot a [item=113574]. On the sixth body instead of a [item=113574] you will instead loot an [item=113573]. You will no longer be able to search bodies and will need to go hand in the quest.

However, if for some reason your bags are full for the initial search of a body you will fail to loot the [item=113574]. Unfortunately the game will still count that as one of the six required searches, so when you search your sixth body you will collect your fifth [item=113574], but the game will deactivate further bodies for searching.

If this happens you will need to abandon the quest and start again. And make sure that you have space in your bags for the [item=113574] items.

Description

We need tae find the orc responsible fer makin' the poison tae make an antidote. Master assassins always leave their mark somewhere on one o' their kills. It's a claim tae fame o' sorts. An' trust me, this was the work of a master assassin. Let's split up and see if we can find some sign on one o' the outcast corpses that will lead us tae their killer. I'll meet ye at the bottom o' the hill, commander.

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.

    Kolrigg is dyin', commander. He's been poisoned and needs an antidote before it's too late. One o' yer scouts reported seein' a Shattered Hand orc nearby not long ago - I wager that's our best shot. There's a small arakkoa camp tae the east that sits near a known Shattered Hand encampment.
