Lol this quest was hilarious actually.
I was expecting to see Nagrand-style The Nesingwary Safari quests, but now he is a pray.


  1. [object=271559] - move strait to the west from questgiver. Cross the road and move south-west. Camp fire is on the small hill near the huge tree roots

  2. [object=271561] - move to the yellow grass zone to the north. Item is near trees roots. A small trap, but easy to see

  3. [object=271558] - move north, item is near the road. A small gun on the ground

  4. [npc=138669] is inside a Headhunter Lodge house (north-east from previous item)

Description

Your hunter king, Nesingwary, is a mighty fine bit of prey here. I even thought of hunting him myself. But someone else is on his trail now. And dat hunter, he is a dangerous one. If you wish to save your hunter king, you best start tracking quickly. If he made camp, you may be too late already. You cannot paint a target and wonder why you were shot! I believe he was last seen heading west...

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.
