There are plenty south of Orebor Harborage and on the east end of Hewn Bog.

I suggest doing the initial Angor'mosh and Daggerfen quests together with this one. They're good quests to grind in one general area.

Description

Living in such a remote location has taught us to make use of everything available. Of course, you have to learn to stop thinking about where some of these materials come from first. I've found that the wings of the umbraglow stingers are very helpful for waterproofing. They're strong, thin, and flexible. <Haalrun chuckles.> I see the look on your face. Like I said, it takes time to get used to the idea. If you're going to be out and about, would you mind bringing me some of the wings?

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.

  • Too Many Mouths to FeedZangarmarsh · Level 10-30

    On my last hunting trip, I caught sight of a new outpost being built by a group of trolls. No doubt they've begun hunting these lands, too. If they establish a permanent presence out here, the competition for food will be fierce.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Menacing MarshfangsZangarmarsh · Level 10-30

    During the orcs' war against my people, gatherers rarely left Telredor for fear of being attacked or captured. Now, we venture out more often, but the marsh is no less perilous. It seems that the nether rays have grown bolder in recent months.
