Whoever designed a quest with the most unfriendly terrain, a billion respawning caster whelps, and elite dragon that fears every minute, and a potion on a 2 minute cool-down is nothing more than a masochist. >_<

I made an account just to rant. If you are a class that is pet reliant (hunter, demo lock) then you are gonna have a hard time, as the game doesn't allow you to use it.

If I could have one wish, it would be to punch the guy that designed this quest in the face.

Description

My greatest regret is the treatment that we - no, I - gave to Nyxondra. I forced her to lay eggs, then I performed experiments on them. Over, and over, and over again. Even as a mother myself, I can only imagine her sorrow. No... I mustn't be weak. Our work is, after all, for the benefit of future generations of black dragons. Her sacrifice was necessary. She circles the Ruins of Kargath, northwest of New Kargath, insane with fury. Please, heroes... put her out of her misery.

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.
