You get a cage with a plaguehound in it, so run out into the fields towards the west of the landing (near the elevator) and bring out the pup. You can do one of two things to get agro on the crows that fly overhead, you can 1. dot 'em or pull them yourself or 2. have your dog do it , its the only ability he has that isn't an attack. The meat is 100% drop if your dog is out and you can click on the meat in your inventory to feed it to your dog.

Description

The high executor wants me to use my dogs to sniff out enemy scouts, but I can tell you right now these plaguehounds aren't going anywhere until they're properly fed. If our military doesn't understand that these beasts are picky enough to not eat the rubbish they've given me, then they can't expect them to be of any use in the field. You seem to have some time on your hands, why don't you take one of these dogs out hunting for crows out west? Their meat isn't very tasty to us, but my boys love it!

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.

  • Report to AnselmHowling Fjord · Level 10-30

    Let's send word back to old Anselm then. Victory has come later than expected, but better late than never. Tell him it will take our forces a few hours at most to finish off the stragglers here. Glory to the Banshee Queen!

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Sniff Out the EnemyHowling Fjord · Level 10-30

    Now that this rascal's belly's full, maybe he will be more willing to cooperate. Here's his leash, just come get him from his cage whenever you're ready to take him. I don't know what Anselm expects you to find, but look for clues wherever it is that the dog takes you.
