Description

No no no! Those ice shards didn't work at all! They'll melt before they even do any damage. That's the last time I'll trust Narf's word on materials. This means we need something else entirely for the shrapnel.

I know! I'm brilliant. Bone splinters.

There are some bones all around here that the jormungar have been gnawing on pretty thoroughly. Go check them out and see if you can find me some splintered bone that I can use.

Extremely simple and easy quest, you can just head east out of Nozzlerust and look around the giant skeletons for the bone chunks. No killing required :)

These spawn so fast you can just pick a dragon skeleton and get all twelve by making laps around it. I used one at 60.18, 26.77 and just followed behind the hulking jor#$%^er, keeping him opposite of the bones from me.

Around the dragon's bones at 53,25. fast and easy.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

Soft PackagingDragonblight · Level 15-30
I need some new packaging for the shrapnel bombs. All the stuff I have is too hard and the shrapnel doesn't spread when it bursts. What we need is some really thin animal hide. Those jormungar tunnelers to the west might work... or perhaps the condors sifting through the dragon bones.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

Hard to SwallowDragonblight · Level 15-30
Those troops are sure to be needin' a hefty supply of food in their bellies. I'll let you in on a little secret that a squeamish <race> like you would never know... those jormungar worms taste just like chicken. Go provoke one of those giant hulking jormungar to the east.
