Holy crap.
I leveled up 10 times doing this quest.
And I was level 90.
Apparently only select plainstriders actually come equiped with beaks...

Description
Are you familiar with plainstriders? Useless animals. Can't fly. Gamey. Brain the size of my knuckle. Too dim to get out of the way of a moving cart. I've broken more axles thanks to their thick skulls... Sometimes I think the quilboar intentionally frighten flocks of them into the path of our caravans just prior to an ambush. Make me proud, {class}. Cut a swath through those filthy birds to keep the roads free, and bring me their beaks as proof.
