I don't think it needs 13 plus, as I've never had any difficulty with Plainstriders. However, whatever you think about that, this quest is worth it, even if the drop rate's a little low. I did it while I was doing other things I tend to kill any available enemies anyway as I'm a skinner/leatherworker and find it useful.

I find it's worth it for the nice quests it leads into they're mostly simple killing, which I find is much like grinding with an eventual reward. Nice, in my opinion I'd be killing these things just to up my level whether I was questing or not. Heaven knows why so many people complain about these quests, as they're intended to make grinding less boring rather than give massive rewards.

I found some Fleeting Plainstriders at 57, 28 on top of the mountain.&nbsp They were dropping just about every time.

I found the best area for these to drop is NE of The Crossroads arround coordinates, 54x,23y off of the Greater Plainstriders.

When I did that quest with my lvl 16 Tauren Hunter, I found that the counter off by two beaks when it kept saying "Quest Complete" when I had 5 in the bag and two more to go.&nbsp I wound up destroying the beaks, and abandoning the quest out of frustration.

The location above me is perfect. Plainstriders are all over that area. Took about 15 minutes to get all the beaks.

Just to the west of Crossroads I found a mess of greater plainstriders....got 7 beaks in about 15 kills, best drop rate anywhere. Just go out the western gate and off the road to the north.

Head east out of the crossroads and kill any Plainstriders you see. They should be right outside the town. Start moving south, and walk clockwise around The Crossroads, killing Plainstriders as you go. It would go alright this way

It's pretty comfortable for a lvl 12 Warrior to solo this. plainstriders have pretty fast attack rate, but as long as you have a good weapon, nothing can stand between you and your quest

This is an easy quest line really. They just get better as you go up. Plainstriders are all over near the cross roads. The best place though is where the road from durotar tees into the road to the crossroads, just north of x-roads.

this quest, same as zhevra, and other monster killing quests in the barrens, just dont go out of your way to do. get the quest, then just do other quests, killing plainstrider/zhevra/raptors along the way. this is common sense, but its amazing how many people will work on one quest at a time.

Maybe they fixed something back in Vanilla days, but in Classic droprate is horrendous. I went for 20 kills w/o a single drop.

To the north of the Crossroads around the left side of Thorn Hill and the Path there has a large number of Plainstriders.

Also to the East of Crossroads (and a bit to the south) has a large number of them.
