[npc=97124] is a challenging encounter to solo; ideally it's nice to bring a friend or two, or ask in general chat. As a level 108 character, I found him to have just over 5 million health (whereas the average mob would be closer to 700k - 1 million).

[npc=97124]'s most annoying ability is [spell=196319], which is a knockback. Make sure you are backed up to the cliff and away from the edge, as the fall can take off quite a chunk of your health!

Description

Care to help settle a bet, chum? Those tauren are Skyhorn, and they fancy themselves big-time hunters. I bet them a pretty penny that they wouldn't be able to take out some of the biggest beasts in Stormheim. If you take em out before they do, I'll split the wager. Deal? The first is a big eagle nesting in the foothills. They call him Spitefeather. You can bait him with some meat, but he's up pretty high, so you'll need a grapple gun to get there. I think there's one of them layin around here...

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.

  • Only the FinestStormheim · Level 10-45

    Say, you're a pretty good hunter, eh? Maybe you could help these tauren out by stocking them with some rare furs. I'm sure they'd appreciate it when they got back! I hear that Stormheim goat hair can be woven into all kinds of things. The rarest are from the silver-tail goats.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • A Stack of RacksStormheim · Level 10-45

    So while we're waiting here, maybe you could fetch us up some grub. Them tauren were runnin low on meats, so I'm sure they'd be thankful to have more. I hear that musken ribs are the specialty here.
