What to do

Collect 10 Thick Yeti Hides.

Objective by objective

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

I take pride in my leather work, and I feel it shows; quality should never be compromised. Anyone who says that quality doesn't matter would also have you believe that the earth does not keep secrets!

In my latest pursuit of high-quality materials, I have discovered thick yeti hides. Yetis are native to Feralas, often found north of here in Rage Scar Hold. I'll give you a choice of one of my leather goods for a stack of ten. If that is agreeable to you, then we are set!

Progress

Were you able to get a stack of ten thick yeti hides? My leather goods are second to none, and I'll share a sampling with you should you have the hides.

Completion

Ah, excellent! These hides, when given a special treatment, are as resilient as iron I tell you! It will take many tries in order to get the right mix down for the tanning, but I am confident they will bring my mark of quality to the next level.

As for you, <name>... your assistance has proven invaluable to me. Please take your choice from these items I have crafted.

Category: Feralas.

What you need

Nothing: no quest item is handed out and none is required to start.

45 700 20%

The game pays the full figure up to five levels above the quest, then 20 % less for each level more, down to a tenth, and none at the level cap. A bonus of your own (a guild perk, a holiday) comes on top.

Observed, what players here were paid: 1,540 experience (median of 1 run), 40s (median of 1 run).

The listed figures and the players here disagree, so both are shown rather than one picked.

  • Experience: players were paid 56% less than the 3,500 listed. An experience bonus (heirlooms, a guild perk) pays more; a character well above the quest's level earns less.

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 2 recorded attempts the hub has.

How precise this guide is

Early guide Built from 2 runs by 1 player – 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 available
  • 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 2) not yet
  • Where players die – death hotspots on the map needs 5 characters from at least 2 different people (now 1 from 1) 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 (Feralas), 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.
