Young Crocolisk Skin (4)

Description

I'm James Halloran, the tanner. My cured crocolisk skins are sought after all over, shipments leaving by boat to ports around the world.

Met Einar? He's one of the hunters that brings crocolisk skins in for me.

I'm a bit short on the softer skins that come off crocolisk young.

Being that I'm running low, I'll pay you top coin for a stack of the skins. You can find the young crocs in the marshes right outside of town.

They're fairly rare on land, check in the water west of the bridge.

I thought these crocodiles were on land, but they are in the water surrounding Menethil Harbor, 21-23

There are a ton under the water at around 15,52. If you don't have coords then its in the water just outside of town and to the right. It helps if you have someone who has underwater breathing. But there are enough to complete the quest pretty quickly. And its a chain so it worth it.

If you don't have Cosmos, then head East from Menethil until you reach the fork where the road from Arathi Highlands meets the Menethil Road. There's also a guy who gives a quest nearby, and a potion merchant.

Just to the east of there, there is about 10 Young Crocolisks. I did my quest here easily, and I didn't even need to wait for respawns.

Hope that helps.

I just completed this quest and was having a very poor drop rate till I started farming them off of the little island at 65,70 to the east of where the rode to the south enters the mountains. It may seem like a long way to run before killing crocolisks but it is well worth it. Level 23 Priest.

In 8 kills I had 4 skins on this island. I would highly recommend it :-)

I acually had to kill 36 of these to finally get 4 damn skins. I didn't get my first drop of skins till about the 16th Young Croc. I killed the Young Crocs all up and down the road between the harbor and Kixxie's wagon. I hate this quest...

The Young Wetlands Crocolisks spawn just off the north side of the main road in Wetlands, in the Bluegill Marsh and Black Channel Marsh areas. Seemed to be levels 21-22.

We just ran back and forth between the road and the stream killing them as we saw them. Drop rate seemed to be about one skin for every four kills.

Experience received was 1,750.

If you you don't want to go all the way to 50,36 you can just head right outside Menethil Harbor to 32,38. I had about 15 crocolisk spawns there and only took 6 kills to get all 4. They drop meat for you cookers and are also skinnable. For those of you without coordinates just follow the road until you're above the WHE in "Whelgars Excavation Site" and go a bit north, you should run into them around that area. Best of luck.

Do you actually have to skin them to get the Young Croc Skins?

I've killed 10-15 without a single drop...

I had some bug issues with this quest. My track beasts would show young crocs and I could be attacked by those young crocs, but I couldn't see them nor could I attack them.

I've done this quest a few times, and found the area with the best skins drop rate is the little inlet just outside of Menethil proper. The water is absolutely chock full of them. (But not so full that you get swarmed or anything.)

Actually, you don't even need to do that.

As soon as you exit Menethil, jump off the bridge and into the water. All around are young crocolisks.

ran around for ever in the marsh looking and then not getting the skin drop. finally adpoted this technique and quest over in a few minutes. catch is uneed a pet.

jump off the bridge. tons of crocs underwater. target one underwater and send pet in, climb out on land and call pet, croc comes along and easy kill. they seem to drop skins high % too.

plus, u might draw a speectator crowd when you burst out of the water killing a croc

No, you don't have to skin them. But that comment brings to mind that I've experienced periods of time with no drops, and not just with the young crocolisks. In fact, just last weekend I was doing the Young Crocolisk Skins quest with a new character on Dethecus. I've done the quest a number of times before with other characters on other realms, and experienced no difficulty completing the quest. But this time I am sure I killed well over 50, possibly close to 100 Young Wetlands Crocolisks with not a single drop. I was working on several other quests at the same time, so I was not keeping close count. Later in the day I came back (I don't remember if I had logged out in the mean time) and killed maybe 8, but not more than 10 I am sure, and had my quest quota.

As I mentioned, I have had problems like this with drops for other quests, and heard stories of other players describing similar experiences, sometimes going many hours in a single session with not a single drop for a particular quest. Then, in another session, returning to complete the quest quota in short order.

I've killed so many so far that I was convinced I needed the skinning skill to do it. But I guess I don't--I'll go to the bridge and cart and see what happens. :)

I had to do some mongrels too so I just took the ones near the road when I headed to the mongrels. I had kill 7 of those crocolisks to get the 4 skins I needed. Don't think they drop them that hard.

This quest best if done with Tramping Paws, The quest you get after talking with The Green Warden, The best location is 63.73, there are Gnolls + crocs in the lake, not to mention a cave with alot of dark iron insurgents.

For those of you without a Co-ord mod, its just to the east of Dun Algaz, the underground mountain pass that lease to Dun Morough. Follow the mountains in the southeast side of the pass Exit/Entrance, till you reach a small body of water with a tiny island in the middle.

LOTS OF GNOLLS AND CROCS, LV 20-23.
