Description
Now that Tagart is done with your hazing... I mean... trials, you can start helping us with some of the work around here. Some of the nearby gryphon nests have been overrun with saurolisk. I fear that the gryphons will make new roosts elsewhere if we don't clear them out. Head up the road towards the waterfall and take out those saurolisks. Report to Shawn when you're done. He's posted as a lookout there.

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.
- Warm and Cozy
Heya! Isn't this place a dream? I couldn't be more relaxed. Well, I could be if these annoying cloud jerks would leave me alone. Why don't you go punch some in their cloud faces. Oh, and bring back their essences, they help keep my tub warm.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- An Offering of Eggs
Our work isn't only to capture and tame gryphons, it's also to preserve them. Rescue any eggs remaining in nearby abandoned nests. Set them in one of the new nests we've built for the displaced gryphons. I am sure one of the gryphon females will adopt them.
