Quest Log

The Stoat Hunt

The Stoat Hunt is an Alliance-only quest for level 10-60 in Tiragarde Sound. It is step 1 of 13 in The Norwington Estate storyline, the opening step. The quest's turn-in marker is in Tiragarde Sound at 55.5, 24.7. It rewards 8 reward items, 1 reputation reward, 8,150 experience and money.

Description

One of the greatest hunting sports amongst the nobles of Boralus is the stoat hunt. It is a sport of determination, patience, and skill. Do you think you can rise to the challenge?

Stoats are agile, sneaky, and sharp. They're next to impossible to catch out in the forest, so the best way to find one is to find its burrow and scare it out.

Find their burrows and bring back their pelts. Their fur is soft and much loved amongst the nobles.

Look for small dirt mounds on the ground around the area. You can also target them if necessary:

/tar Stoat Den

After rustling a den, few [npc=125327]s spawn out and you have to kill the poor Mustela to loot [item=152642]. You only have a few seconds to do this before the stoats disappear (AoE spells for ease). As usual, the quest item is not a guaranteed drop.

There are small burrows on the ground, often near [npc=126455]. Several small mobs will spawn out of the ground. Kill them but LOOT THEM IMMEDIATELY. they despawn very quickly, especially if you are attacking something else at the same time. Do not wait until after combat to loot.

    These nobles really think killing weasels is the mark of a good hunter? Ha! It ain't hunting if there isn't a bit of danger involved. There are boars in these woods. That's more our speed out in the mountains! Why don't you kill some of those, then bring me their tusks as proof?
