Painful quest..... You have to usher the Argali back to the herd. When you get to close they will move a few steps away from you, position yourself so that they are running away from you toward their herd, rinse and repeat until you get there. The herd on a little rise west (74.8 30.1) of the area they have run away to. (adding that this is one of the location's, as the tribe is nomadic and move around, so it depends where you pick up the quest)
Note: Can be done in stealth.

Seriously the WORST quest I've come across in the beta. The sheep get hung up on a rock etc and just sit there for what seems like days. There's so little direction or interaction to this one. I had no idea where I was supposed to go w/ the dumb things until I got lucky and wound up w the rest of the herd.
The best way to finish this quest is to never start it.

Description
One of our key resources is our argali herd. Every loss is felt deeply for the strength of our clan. A few of the argali have gotten separated and have wandered away from the herd. Our shepherds could use your assistance reclaiming them.
