Rewards10g 50s, 4,100 XP

Description

Gorillas and wasps are boring! Big-tongues the only thing fun to hunt. While we mess up rain shrine, we kill lots of mist big-tongues. That sure to make them not want to come back to village thing. <Zepik nods to himself confidently.>

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Lightning Definitely Strikes TwiceSholazar Basin · Level 20-30

    Okay, the crystal things... The big-tongues use the crystals to power their rain shrines. Zepik not know quite how it works, but Zepik does know that if they use wrong crystals, the clouds and the rain go crazy! Zepik tried to sneak in at one of their other rain shrines, but it not go so well.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Hoofing ItSholazar Basin · Level 20-30

    Okay, we done! Time to go back. No crocolisk to ride this time though. If we go east and stay near ridge, it should lead all the way back near hill. Need to be careful not to go far below ridge though or we might go right into big-tongue tree village thing. Zepik not think they like us right now.
