Description

Durzan looks hale and hearty again. That moss packs a real punch.

I have a sense that he's ready to go. I just wish we had more time. I have so many questions. But the greatest of those questions will be answered when he reaches the peak.

We shouldn't send him up there alone. But I think he trusts you to take him.

The last fight up the hill can bug the quest in a way that Durzan does not move anymore.
Had to abandon and restart the quest. Then did the following steps:


  2. Flew up the hill on my own, leaving Durzan behind

  4. Did both fights without Durzan

  6. Flew down the hill to where I left Durzan

  8. Picked up Durzan and flew up one more time alongside him.


Without any fight, he did not bug out.

Wait... you mean it's an escort quest, but I'm the one being escorted? That's awesome!

And as a skinner, I'm taking my time to attack and skin the critters on the way, wasting his time like so many other escort quests in the past <3

    You say nerubians had him? Not sure what they wanted with old Durzan, but he looks weakened by the ordeal. We can't have that if he's to challenge his brother Belzt on the mountain. The moss harvested from our flocks gives the storm rooks a kick, so Durzan might benefit from it as well.
