Description

Before you travel to the moonwell I have another task that will aid the people of Ashenvale if you would like to test your skills.

Along the road heading east before the Falfarren River, furbolgs have been attacking travelers. Their tortured minds feeding upon fear, and their appetites satiated by the blood of innocents.

Aid the Sentinels in protecting the lands by showing those monsters the same mercy they have shown our kind.

I believe their camps are south of the road... be careful.

This wasn't difficult as a 26 Mage, the Foulwealds all stick to their little areas like other Furbolgs, except the Pathfinders. They're not part of the quest, but they patrol around between the two camps and used ranged weapons, so watch your back.

I went to the 57,63 coordinate (follow the road east until you get to the Raynewood Retreat on your left side, almost directly across from that is a path heading south into a Foulweald camp).&nbsp Managed to work the perimeter starting to the left and had all my kills except 2 warriors. I used a lot of mana and bandages for my lv25 druid but made it through without dying.

I went back up to the road and headed west again until I came to the next path on my left heading down into the valley again where I found a few more warriors to take out.&nbsp From here be sure to head to head directly south to the building you see.&nbsp It is Silverwind Refuge and you'll find a quest.&nbsp The first part of the quest gave me 1950 points and was easy. Oh and there is that darn Mystral Lake everyone talked about when trying to find the Talondeep Path!

The camps of the furbolgs are a ways east along the road, then just off the road to the south. They are north of the Silverwind Refuge. The mobs are actually called Foulweald XXX and range from level 23-25.

It was not hard to get the Totemics and Warriors as single pulls and quickly kill them. However, the Ursas tend to hang out among groups of 3-4 other mob types.

We found that by working into the camps from the east and being patient some of the Ursa guards would stray a bit, and we could pick them off. Then the Ursa itself would eventually stray to a separate hut, and you could pick them off single as well.

if you follow the road east from Astranaar, the foulweald camp is just southwest of the first fork that you come to in the road.

22 Hunter with 22 Cat at the time.&nbsp Took me over an hour to complete this quest.&nbsp Didn't like the looks of the Greenpaw Village furbolg camp (too many mobs close together) that lies along the road that leads south from the main Aschenvale E-W road, so I dropped off the E-W road closer to Astraanar and went south to Mistral Lake and along the lake edge to Silverwing Refuge, the Hunter's Retreat.

From the retreat I headed north and soon began to see isolated (outlying) furbolgs (warriors and totemics).&nbsp There is a camp to the northwest (Greenpaw Village), and a camp to the northeast of the hunter's retreat.&nbsp The NE one seemed easier, so I focused on that one.

It was easy killing off the outlying furbolgs.&nbsp There are TWO furbolg Pathfinders that wander around as you approach the camp.&nbsp The other furbolgs stay in place once they spawn.

The tedium came, of course, from having to clear the area continually of (re)spawning furbolgs as I worked my way toward the inner camp itself, where two Ursas, two Shamans, and the Denwatcher were.&nbsp Since the bolgs I had killed would respawn behind me, blocking any kiting that I needed to do (which I had to do several times for various reasons), I had to keep going back toward the hunter's retreat and kill them.&nbsp I guess I had to do this about five or six times.&nbsp The Pathfinders repawn fairly quickly, too.&nbsp I had to kill the two of them about three or four times.

My greatest disappointment came from the paltry loot -- about 50-60 copper per mob, hardly anything else -- no greens, no blues -- 7 linen, 3 wool, 1 silk.&nbsp Unskinnable, of course.&nbsp I kept hoping for better loot, so I continued to the end.&nbsp I must have killed about 50 mobs.

I could have abandoned this quest, but once I start a quest, I usually finish it.&nbsp That's just me.

Anyway, fair warning to all you out there. :)

Not sure if this quest is glitched but when i was doing this, the ursa and den watchers were standing on top of each other in a group of 8, send pet in, kill 1, run and repeat, Goodluck, was a pain, died a few times.

After coming across the "invisible" mobs in this area before, this morning I was surprised to notice the top of a (live) furblogs just peeping above the path down from the road !

I therefore think these mobs aren't invsible, but they do spawn under the ground (with much the same effect as being invisible).

Useful tip. Ignore the camp just on the right as you come off the road, head further down the path and there is a second camp on the left with much easier to pull mobs.

Confirmed that these mobs are still bugged...since alliance has a hard time sucking up their pride and helping people (:P) and no one flocked to the rescue of my poor little priest, I brought my higher leveled shaman out to clear the bugged enemies and kill them as they respawned. It sucks. Try to bring a friend or two when you do this quest if it's not fixed.

There was a den watcher I pulled from around 60,51 that didn't bring any other mobs. I was also able to do this with one Ursa, and after wandering away from the area and coming back another Urse spawned where the den watcher was. Rogues should note this is not a friendly quest. Don't even bother stealthing or sapping, it does no good. Poison your weapons, bring your thistle tea, and remember that gouge and backstab are your friend! After that just Sinister strike a few times and Eviscerate.

I had a pretty rough time finding warriors. The areas were mainly dominated with totemics. Maybe I just got unlucky? I spent a lot of time running around waiting to find respawns for the warriors. Good luck!

Anyway to link maps to these? The information is very useful, but without maps it makes for difficult visualization....

The mobs are found in Greenpaw Village- and my co-ords are 54,64 on the Ashenvale map. NNE of Mystral Lake and NE of Silverwind Refuge.
I also found that coming in from the east side was easier for drawing singles- even the Ursas came as singles from that side.
Be sure to pop in to Silverwind while you're there. You cna pick up a quest and some tweaks if you need them.

A fun thing about these furbolgs is when you stand behind them you recieve a debuff nothing serious

warriors will lower your strength by 3
Totemics will lower your intellect by 3
