Do NOT follow this quest line and steer clear of the 'Bad Dogs'. These guys act as pets, and they are horrible; they will agro on EVERYTHING around and keep you in combat so you can't eat or mount. Just do the other quests and leave these guys in the bar. ;-)

Description

In my haste to escape from Lethlor Ravine, I forgot to tie up one loose end: Nyxondra. She's free, and she's sounded the alarm among the black dragonflight. Half the flight is here in the western Badlands, combing for this egg. I'll take care of hiding the egg. You're going to take care of some of the more troublesome dragons. And you'll have help. I've paid off a couple of mercenaries to help you. You'll find them inside this inn.

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.

    <Dr. Blam stares at the egg in awed silence, blinks a few times, then looks up at you.> D... did you see that? Incredible! My titan thing idea worked! With your help, of course. We'll want to get these back to Rhea.

  • Amakkar, Jack of All TradesBadlands · Level 15-30

    Before we get too crazy with the dragon-killing, let me tell you a little bit about how I fight. I'm not terribly strong or stalwart like these other two, but I've got a few tricks. At your command I'll stun your enemies to keep 'em held still.
