TheWoWDBThis is obviously meant to be a joke, and a funny one at that, at the silly starting quests that used to be in Vanilla WoW, where you had to go and kill 10 boars. The fact that this quest giver brags about being able to kill so many when players have been doing just that for years, is something I find very humourous.

Description
Try to contain your excitement, {name}, for you are in the presence of the greatest boar hunter in Azeroth! Their cunning intellect, rapid speed, ferocious strength, and resilient hide... yes, boars are the quarry of only the most masterful of hunters. Amateurs need not apply! Why, I bet you've never even hunted such an exotic beast. I'll bet silver any day that you can't match my record of ten boars killed. Try the ones on the eastern shore of the loch... but don't hurt yourself now, rookie!

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.
- Defcon: Bobcat
Stop everything! It's come to my attention that there's been bobcat sightings near the lodge. Bobcats! Now mind you, I've never seen a bobcat, but they're surely dangerous. They're like mountain lions or something. I don't want anyone leaving until the area is secure! Anyone but you, that is.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Vyrin's Revenge
I don't suppose you'd be interested in a little payback for His Boldness? Daryl does have some skill, it pains me to say. A year ago, a large bear had been the target of the Farstrider Lodge, but none of the hunters had any luck with him. So, Daryl thought he'd try his hand against him.
