Description

Respect the lion, {name}! A ferocious killer. You gotta admire the elegance of the beast... Muscle and claws... Running down its food... So primal... I'm sorry, my mind wandered. As I was saying, I respect these lions, but they're just murder on our patrols. I mean that literally. The men are afraid to go to the bathroom alone at night. Can you help make our camp a little safer? Barrens lions like to linger under trees.

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.

  • Diplomacy By Another MeansSouthern Barrens · Level 10-30

    I have not forgotten my brush with death at the hands of the quilboar in that filthy jungle. The General here has ordered some tactical strikes, but he stops short of genocide. I have no such qualms. Take this horn that I 'borrowed' during my negotiations.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Marching On Our StomachsSouthern Barrens · Level 10-30

    It's true what they say: An army marches on its stomach. And we've been marching a long way. I'm thinking if we barbecue up a few of those giant lumbering stormsnouts, we'll have enough meat to feed us for weeks. Stormsnouts are big and slow, so they should be easy to kill. Except...
