Another chance for those to experience vanilla drop rate!
I swear these were dropping in 2s, now the frogs just drop 1. As if the abyssmal drop rate wasn't enough.

What to do
Description
Halazzi says dat de Vilebranch have made a new venom dat para... parliz--makes its victims not move--so they can drag them off to be sacrificed. He says it's frog venom. I said that doesn't make sense. Frogs are poison, right? Halazzi said frogs are normally poisonous, not venomous. But these have sharp horn bits on them, so maybe they have venom! I didn't know frogs could have venom, did you? Let's find out if these do--then de Witherbark can make an anti-venom!

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Eye of the Loa
I lost friends to venoms made from Shadra's spiders in de Hinterlands. I gotta know if Shadra's lurkin' around here, twistin' de minds of these Witherbark. No Revantusk will be safe in Zul'Aman with Shadra-worshippin' Witherbark around! Maybe I seem paranoid, but I have my reasons.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- A Most Vile Venom
De Vilebranch are cookin' up more bad things. You should go to de source and make dem stop! Halazzi has smelled their venom-mixin' place someplace to de southeast, and he thinks it's more den just frog venom. ...Oh, Halazzi also said to bring back some kind of huge fang.
