When your Warband reaches Renown Rank 9 with [faction=2658], you'll get access to the [storyline=5941] storyline, starting at [npc=238016] in [zone=15781]:

Day 1 :
Stealing What is Ours
Day 2 :
Win-Win Situation (small trading game to unlock required dialogue options to finish the quest, for this step, [npc=236265] has two extra quest item cookies in his stock, [item=242667] and [item=242708])
Day 3 :
The Wrong Bluecephalus
Meat My Business
Day 4 :
The Grift
A Blue for You (rewards the mount)

/way #2472 57.6 58.1 Ba'eth
/way #2472 46.9 36.8 Xy'dax
/way #2472 43.3 37.0 Ba'kerei
/way #2472 48.5 41.4 Xy'Zin and Griftah
Because they prevented us from continuing this storyline for quite a while during testing, it's uncertain whether they will spread these quests over more days (they flag a hidden tracking quest [quest=90725] to stop us from continuing back to back like they did to stagger the Whelp Daycare storyline in Dragonflight), or we'll get the mount after 4 days of completing the listed quests as seen on PTR. (There's no catch-up, that tracking quest will continue to do its job. When you pause X days, you'll finish X days later.)

Description

Not everything you recovered yesterday was mine, but let's be honest--we're going to keep it anyway! Xy'daz has been ripping people off for years. It's his turn to take a loss! Now, this can work in both our favors. You sell off half of the leftover goods for me, and I'll let you keep the rest!

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.

  • Stealing What is OursK'aresh · Level 80

    Ve'nari has called in a lot of favors to get the Oasis reclamation effort off the ground. Plenty of Tazavesh merchants have donated to the cause, though some have seen fit to help themselves instead. A large shipment of stasis-sealed items was stolen from the docks by an untrustworthy importer.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • The Wrong BluecephalusK'aresh · Level 80

    We may have gotten off on the wrong foot, but there's something you should know. That old slateback you used to haul all those imports? I thought it was just another worn-out nag, but it turns out it was the real treasure all along. A rare bluecephalus, worth a fortune!

The storyline at a glance

Ba'eth's Request has 6 steps, from Stealing What is Ours to A Blue for You.

Maps its steps are placed on (steps per map): Tazavesh (3), K'aresh (3).
