What to do

Use the Taming Rod to tame a Mistbat, and then return to Lieutenant Dawnrunner.

Objective by objective

  • Kill or interact with Mistbat NPC #16353

The quest's own structured objectives. How many of each you need is set by the game when you accept it, so it is not stored here – the sentence above is the quest's own wording.

The quest giver's words

You have done well, <name>. Your understanding of the wild grows quickly.

The mistbat is a clever hunter, combining the swiftness of the dragonhawk and the ferocity of the springpaw. Mistbats are found just across the Elrendar River to the south, preying on hapless travelers who wander into the Ghostlands.

Use this final taming rod to befriend a mistbat and return to me when you have finished.

Progress

Have you mastered the mistbat?

Completion

So you see <name>, there is nothing left for me to teach you at this time. You already understand what it is to befriend those you once hunted. You need only to choose one of nature's allies with traits that match your own.

What players recorded

Everything below this line is a different kind of knowledge from everything above it. Above: what the quest is, the same on every realm. Below: what actually happened when people played it, uploaded by them, with the number of runs printed against every figure. It is an observation, not a fact about the quest.

Nobody has completed this quest with telemetry on yet, so there is no timing. Everything below is drawn straight from the 0 recorded attempts the hub has.

How precise this guide is

Early guide Built from 0 runs by 0 players – low confidence. Every upload of this quest sharpens it: the hotspots tighten, the order and the timings settle, and the parts below unlock as the sample grows.

  • Where to go – pick-up, objectives and hand-in needs one recorded run not yet
  • Typical time and objective order – median and middle half needs 3 completed runs (now 0) not yet
  • Tips – what most players do needs 5 runs (now 0) not yet
  • Where players die – death hotspots on the map needs 5 characters from at least 2 different people (now 0 from 0) not yet

The route

An early route: drawn from the first runs and sharper with every upload. Pick-up, hand-in and the objective hotspots are where the quest is, so they are shown from the first run.

Map coordinates are the addon's own 0–1 zone coordinates (Eversong Woods), origin top-left, x to the right and y downward. Drag the zone map to pan, ctrl/⌘ + scroll or the buttons to zoom; the grid lines are tenths of the zone.
