TheWoWDBI too started to think it was on the fritz, since i had skinned over 100 with no drop. Then for the heck of it.. I went and bought the book "Forgotten Techniques of the Broken Isles". And POW... it taught me Stonehide Leather and Stomscle. The the quests started popping up from Kondal Huntsworn. I know for a fact I had NEVER known skinning before.. I am on my Boost Alt.. Hope it helps.

It took about 16 mobs to get mine. I got it from an adolescent storm drake in a cave in Stormheim at 28, 55.

This scale shimmers with electrical energy. Your skinning trainer in Dalaran would be interested in seeing this.
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 Core of the Stormscale
Ahh, yes. The elusive stormscale. I have seen similar scales in Northrend, and some in Skywall, but it would appear that such a scale is common here. My colleagues that specialize in mail armor will be happy to learn this.
