The quest area is in the west of Azuna very close to the Illidari Perch flight-point. walk in to the edge of the marked quest area and apply the bait, shortly after the felhound fledgling will spawn (no need to wander about) and attack you.

Once the mob's hit points have been suitably reduced a special action button will appear above your action bar that will allow you to trap the mob (I found this was not made clear by the quest and was hunting in my bag/quest log for a trap item).

Be carful to not let your pet overkill the quest mob, and keep an eye on your pet's hit points as the mob has a significant damage buff.

Just fly/walk to the flightmaster. Then simply walk about ten steps down the path and apply the wormguts. There's a couple of mobs/dogs but not close enough to aggro you if you stay at the base of the path. No going into any caves or wandering away from the flightmaster.

These comments are all terrible. The thing that's distracting is there is glowing meat the Manastalkers are eating in the same area that causes confusion. DO NOT CLICK THE GLOWING MEAT.

Instead, use [item=138253] in your inventory in the cave just below the flight point as people pointed out. Attack [npc=108242] when he spawns and comes to you until about 20% and [spell=216962] should appear on your special action bar. Just click it. This is a screenshot of the button and me trapping the mob.

Description

Deep in the heart of Faronaar are dens that are overrun with felhounds. If Hakkar is breeding those beasts, that is the place he would do it. The bait I've crafted is potent. Once you apply it, you'll draw the attention of nearby hounds, so only use it when you're close to the dens. Once the demon has taken the bait, get it into a weakened state to make trapping easier. Good luck, {name}. I hope you return in one piece.

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.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Leyworm LureLevel 45

    Felhounds are attracted to magic, young ones especially. They get a whiff and go into a feeding frenzy! You're not quite as enticing as a mage, so you'll need to cover yourself in something that can fool a felhound into thinking you're its next magical meal. Leyworm entrails should do the trick.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • The Nature of the BeastLevel 45

    By nature, this demon is immune to magic, but it has also been bred to be resistant to physical attacks. It's covered in scales unlike anything I've ever seen; layered and thick. I doubt that most metals will be able to pierce the demon's armor-like hide.

Watchers in the Wild II has 20 steps, from Unseen Protection to The Nature of the Beast.
