Description

I cannot believe that I'm constantly stuck in this city! You'd help me out, right? You see, I've heard about these turtles that have been living in hot springs. What makes it interesting is that some of the sulphur from the water has soaked into their scales to give them interesting patterns. I'm too busy to go check myself, but if you could go get me some of their skins, I'd be more than willing to teach you everything else I know about skinning anything with scales in exchange.

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.
