Basilisk Butcher

Basilisk Butcher is a quest for level 15-40 in Gorgrond. It is step 24 of 35 in the In the Land of Giants storyline. The quest's turn-in marker is in Gorgrond at 45.9, 54.9. It rewards 5,450 experience and money.

Description

Basilisk is one of Nisha's favorite meals. This is where she hunts, and that's likely how those Iron Horde bastards were able to capture her.

Why would they go to the trouble to subdue her this way? Perhaps together, you and I might learn the answer as we punish them for their transgressions.

For now, Nisha's going to need some food. While I tend to her, will you do her hunting for her?

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.
