This quest is a breadcrumb from Hemet's camp to Razik's camp and will only be offered if you have not accepted Critter Scatter Shot.

Similarly, Rating Razik and An Offering of Ammo are breadcrumb quests for Hemet Nesingwary's *western* Highmountain quests. If you have accepted either Note-Eating Goats or Amateur Hour you will not be offered either of these breadcrumbs. Additionally, you will only be offered one of the breadcrumb quests.

There is no way to pick up more than one of these breadcrumbs.

An Offering of Ammo requires you to have completed either the Skyhorn (The Skies of Highmountain) or Bloodtotem (Unexpected Allies) questlines.
Rating Razik requires you to have completed Razik's quests Critter Scatter Shot and Wolf Pack Attack.
Procuring a Prototype requires you to have completed the Hemet and Addie quests ending in I'm Not Lion!, Moose on the Loose, and Scout It Out.

Description

If Addie's going to be a more permanent member of the huntin' party, then she'll need some specialty gear for someone her size. My munitions expert should have some ideas about what kind of weapon would best suit a gnome. Stop by his camp and let him know that I'll be needin' a prototype soon.

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.

    The howlers in these hills travel in packs. Three against one isn't a fight I want to pick. Luckily those wolves are no match for my engineering skills! I just put the finishing touches on the prototype of a device that will help scatter the pack. All I need now is some ammo...
