The Corrupter

Bring a Shadowstalker Scalp to Maurin Bonesplitter in Desolace.
Shadowstalker Scalp

Description

I believe I can find this demon lord given the proper reagents.

If he is indeed as powerful as I suspect, I will need items gathered from deadly creatures. But you act in the Warchief's name, so I am sure you will accept my task.

First, I will have to break any wards he has against scrying. For this, I will need the scalp from a satyr--but not any satyr. The scalp must come from a Hatefury shadowstalker.

Search for them among the ancient ruins in the northeast of Desolace.

I got the Scalp drop on the first kill. I was at 72.19 at a two hut camp with 2 shadowstalkers. First one dropped the scalp.

If you dont have a coords program, follow the road EAST out of Ghost Walker Post, then once you hit the fork, head NORTH all the way to Sargeron which is at the most North-eastern portion of the Desolace map.

Just remember that ONLY the Hatefury Shadowstalkers will drop the scalp, none of the other satyrs!

I hope this helps!

Been killing shadowstalkers for a while now (15 plus?) and not dropped yet.&nbsp Its not bugged its just luck.

Oh and for the fellow who loves to shout noobs, were talking about a drop for an ongoing quest, not the intial drop to start the quest.&nbsp Do learn to read, if not think.

Heheh. It's possible for Alliance to get this quest, but not to complete it (obviously). Just FYI so other folks don't have to go looking like I did :)

For those who are wondering, you can find the Hatefury Shadowstalker wandering around Sargeron, a camp of ruins in the northeastern corner of the Desolace map.

Seemed as if there were only two actual Shadowstalkers in the whole place, and I had to wait for their respawns. Found one at 71,17 and another at 76,23. The scalp dropped off the second kill.

These mobs are around 75,20.
Knowing this item has a 4,5% drop chance, you can easily calculate it will take roughly 20 mobs to get this item. Although, I have experienced a much lower drop rate, and ending up killing around 50 for this item. Overall, nice XP reward from both the quest and all the mobs, and since I was playing a hunter, It wasn't too bad at all. And you are highly unlikely to kill 50 mobs for it. ;) Worth the effort.

More mobs if you go up to 72,13 there is a small valley the other side - 4/5 were there when I went. Dropped on the third. Watch out for the L37 Swoop.

Although it seems if you kill the others they respawn as something else? I killed a load of Tricksters and Rogues and they seemed to come back as Shadowstalkers. Probably quicker to just kill everything you see rather than run about looking for a specific type.

Received this quest with my level 38 Priest toon. Can't be completed so I reported to Blizzard, below is the response. This is a Horde only quest.

We are sorry for this inconvenience. Please check the World of Warcraft website (http://www.worldofwarcraft.com) for future updates and corrections. We appreciate your patience.

Pretty stupid quest. Why would you need to kill 10+ to get a scalp?

I can confirm it works for the Horde.

Don't expect to get the drop in just a few kills though, about 20 kills was required for me. A droprate around 5% is probably realistic.

Did 3 runs or more to the camp and killed all Shadowstalkers and no drop.
