Bear Huntin'

Description

They say a single hair from the back of a bristlefur bear is sharp enough to cut a dwarf's beard. But if the fur doesn't kill ya, the maul will.

Some lesser hunters have been a meal for those bears.

Show me you're more than a snack and bring me back a few of those bristlefur pelts.

You need to walk through the cave to find the bears. It, for some reason, took me a bit to figure it out. The cave entrance is across the river from the Nesingwary camp.

PS - I found it very unhelpful that the only comments on here at this time were youtube links to walkthroughs. If I wanted to watch a video on how to do it, I would look for that first. Please consider posting those at the end of a more helpful comment instead of it being your whole comment. Thanks.

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.

  • A Hunter at HeartHighmountain · Level 10-45

    Addie's one heck of a writer, but I've never seen her hold a rifle. She's keen on learning how to hunt, but who's ever heard of a gnome hunter? You seem to have a knack dealin' with amateurs, so maybe you'd be willin' to let the gnome tag along on a hunt?

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Lion Stalkin'Highmountain · Level 10-45

    The hills are crawlin' with lions that stalk their prey from afar. These big cats will pounce at anything that catches their eye, including a <race>. While most would fall to such a formidable predator, anyone in my huntin' party would be able to best those beasts.
