You are asked by Hana'zua, a dying troll, to kill the beast he could not, the beast whose stinger inflicted his mortal wound - Sarkoth.

Sarkoth
Be ready to dodge his poison, friend.

Objectives

Kill Sarkoth and bring his claw back to Hana'zua.

•  [Sarkoth's Mangled Claw]

Description

<Class>! I thought I would die out here with none to know of it. While I was hunting the scorpids of the Valley, I came across a particularly vicious-looking one. Hurling myself at it, I managed to inflict a massive blow to its claw before it closed around my leg.

I wasn't ready for its stinger though, and it sliced down and into my chest, cutting into my flesh and letting my blood. Please, you must kill the scorpid for me! My honor must be upheld! I fought it up on the plateau to the south.

Rewards

You will receive:

• 90
• 45-450 XP
• +250 reputation with Orgrimmar
• +250 reputation with Darkspear Trolls

Progress

Ahhh… my father always said I would never amount to much, and here, lying beneath a tree as life seeps away, I'm afraid it looks like he was right.

At least I wish to die knowing that my last enemy in life lays dead.

Completion

My blow was not enough to kill him, but looking at the damage I inflicted gives me some small measure of pride. That small measure will be all I have to sustain myself if I die, and in that light, the short list of my life's accomplishments fills me with anger.

Notes

As the quest description says, Sarkoth can be found on the plateau to the south of Hana'zua's location. Look for a ramp leading up. Sarkoth roams all over the plateau, and there is a small rise on the right side of the ramp that Sarkoth wanders over to. If he is at that location when you come up the ramp, he will surprise you from behind the rise.

Sarkoth is not that hard to kill - he is a level 4 scorpid and has more hit points than the level 3 Scorpid Workers nearby, but he doesn't do significantly more damage. A level 3 character can easily kill him.
