Description

You're starting to make a name for yourself, <name>. How about trying your hand at hunting?

Back on Draenor, our greatest hunters would hunt a beast that resembled the moongraze stag of this region known as a talbuk.

If you think yourself draenei enough, go out into the wilds and kill enough stags to fill your pack with meat.

You will find them grazing south of Azure Watch. Watch out for their horns!

Tips for horde grinding this recipe:


  • Be a Draenei (duh?)

  • Use mage

  • Ignore quests

  • Kill everything you see between your starting point and the questgiver. You need to be lev 4 for turning in this quest.

  • You can kill the Moongrazers before the quest, and just turn in when you arrive.


I'm at about 9.5 minutes from creation to mailing the recipe to a toon to transfer it across to horde.

For upper level toons who have never done this quest, all you have to do is go to Acteon (53,43) in the main quest giver and profession trainer area of Azuremyst Isle and pick up the quest. No prequests. Just do it and get your recipe! As mentioned above, it is a 100% drop rate so it's quite painless. Only element of tedium is you can't use your flying mount.

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Find Acteon!Azuremyst Isle · Level 1-30

    You did a wonderful job, <name>. Our people will be thankful for this bounty. With that said, would you mind taking this haul of red snapper to Acteon at Azure Watch? He shouldn't be hard to find as he is awaiting this catch.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Learning the LanguageAzuremyst Isle · Level 1-30

    I think I've cracked it, <name>! <Aurren points to the totem.> All that we need to know about the Stillpine furbolg language is imprinted on their totems. With just a rudimentary understanding of how their symbols work, we can study the totems and learn to communicate with the furbolgs.
