Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

• Rhino Mastery: The KillSholazar Basin · Level 20-30

  Now that we know where to find Farunn, all that remains is the battle against the great beast. Are you ready to take on this rhino, <name>? For all the spirit's blustering, I'm certain it was telling the truth about the beast's strength.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

• In Search of Bigger GameSholazar Basin · Level 20-30

  Well, <name>, you've certainly proven your mettle as a hunter of all kinds of game animals -- rhinos, cats, and crocolisks. For some members of the expedition, these creatures are sufficient to test their hunting skills, but others, like myself, crave larger challenges.
