Description

I've been tempted to go after the big kill... the largest crocolisk out there, Horrorjaw. His hide alone would be enough to get my family out of this hole. But I'm no fool. One mistake and I could lose a leg, or my life, and then where would my wife and kids be? Still homeless and without a father to care for them. It's not my proudest moment, but I'll pick my family's safety over pride any day. Please, {class}... hunt Horrorjaw for me. You'll find him in his shady pool to the north, lurking.

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.

  • Gizmos and GadgetsWetlands · Level 10-30

    I've been coming up short on parts recently for my engineering projects, and the other day I finally saw why: the Mosshide gnolls have been making off with them! I don't have any idea what they could possibly want them for, but I need those gizmos back.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Dark Iron TrappersWetlands · Level 10-30

    You may have seen them while you were out, but the Dark Iron clan has been spotted in this area. They're never up to any good, and it looks like they're kidnapping the Mosshide gnolls for some reason. I don't know what their game is, but we're putting a stop to this before more foul play occurs.
