There are Thornscar Ravagers being ridden by Shattered Hand Flayers in this quest area. As a rogue, i was able to sap the Ravager mount, and attack the Flayer. Because the mount was sapped, they were unable to turn around to attack me. Kill the rider, stealth up, the game respawns the rider when the ravager is out of combat, re-sap the mount, kill the quest NPC, rinse and repeat for a quick quest!

What to do

StorylineSecrets of the Talonpriests, step 3 of 12
RewardsCragplate Girdle, Shadowveil Cord, Ravenchain Belt, 16g 98s, 5,450 XP

Description

The Shattered Hand clan is made up of orcs who can call no other clan home. They are sadistic warriors who maim their bodies, perhaps in a show of solidarity or perhaps because they simply enjoy the pain. It does not matter. What matters is that they are expanding their territory, butchering anyone in their path. They must be dealt with.

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.

  • Ishaal's OrbSpires of Arak · Level 30-40

    The Adherents came for me, but I was already hiding. I watched from the shadows as they ransacked my hut. Then I watched the Shattered Hand orcs arrive and butcher them like dinner fowl. Seems everyone is after us these days. One of those orc thugs made off with my scrying orb.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Egg PuntSpires of Arak · Level 30-40

    <A sweaty, pulsing egg - no doubt flush with ravager larvae. A swift kick should take care of these.>
