Unlike Goregek the Gorilla Hunter, Dajik the Wasp Hunter is a good deal more amicable. He also doesn't seem to be quite as much of a slobbering moron as Goregek, lending credence to the idea that not all Wolvar are completely stupid. Instead of the pointless blustering and snarling that is characteristic of Goregek, Dajik tends to offer obvious but still marginally useful advice.

In combat, where Goregek was a meathead (melee), Dajik is a caster, specifically a healer. He has heals that heal for about 800-1100, and he uses it liberally, topping you off before, during, and after battle. He also has a little bit better damage output than Goregek. His aura, instead of healing him on your damage, restores HIS mana on YOUR damage.

Description

Rakjak not dumb. Maybe you good at killing things. Maybe Frenzyheart can make you into real hunter. Dajik hunts giant wasp things better than all wolvar. Go with Dajik to Sapphire Hive to southeast or to river in south and learn the hunt.

Before this quest

  • Tormenting the SoftknucklesSholazar Basin · Level 20-30

    Slave thing! Rakjak want me to babysit you while I kill hardknuckles. I feeling generous today, so I let you kill some too, but don't get in Goregek's way! Rakjak not know yet, but Goregek has eye on big bad hardknuckle mama.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • The Sapphire QueenSholazar Basin · Level 20-30

    Bristlepine can be dangerous, but most stay far away from wolvar. Wasps on other hand not fear the Frenzyheart... they even kill some of our hunters. I know Rakjak want wasp queen dead, but no wolvar want to go into her hive.
