Level 29, Dakk is not in the building, he is standing outside and has no quest for me. I have finished the other three quest chains in Loch Modan and I'm now stuck in finishing zone. Any ideas ?

Update: Found I had missed several quests in the building by the south gate entrance, when I did those, the last chain completed. Must assume that I did this quest previously but these missed quests must have been in the chain and had to be done.

Description

I don't know about you, but I'm not much a fan of spiders, much less the kind that come bigger than me. Loch Modan's a gorgeous place, but I'd say it could do without those horrid things waltzing around. Tell you what, I've got some spare coin, and you look like a tough one. If you head out and off some of those things for me, I'll pay you for your time.

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.

  • A Decisive StrikeLoch Modan · Level 5-30

    It appears that these beasts in Loch Modan are following the lead of a chieftain named Grawmug. He's the biggest of all the troggs here, lurking deep within the darkness of the caves to the north. If you feel yourself worthy, <name>, I want you to lead the assassination mission on Grawmug.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Out of Gnoll-whereLoch Modan · Level 5-30

    Well met, <class>. We've got a problem, and I'd ask you to lend a hand. It's gnolls. There's a mess of the things west of town, roaming the hills. Not usually any cause for alarm, but we've not usually had gnolls here in Loch Modan.
