Objectives

Kill 8 Slitherscale Rippers or Slitherscale Eggdrinkers.

• Slitherscale saurok x8

Description

At first, the Slitherscale were too frightened to approach the wild serpents.

Then, I caught them snatching the eggs under the cover of night.

Now, they are slaughtering adults and hatchlings alike!

If we do not do something, these gentle creatures will be completely wiped out. Then there won't even be an Order of the Cloud Serpent to join!

Go and slay these vile Slitherscales, and then we will talk.

Rewards

You will receive: 19 84 50

Progress

The Order rarely meddles with the natural balance on this island, but it is too important to save the serpents.

Completion

Thank you, <race>.

I tried to stop the Slitherscale where I could, but I was no match for their numbers.

Your work today will help preserve an entire generation of cloud serpents.

Gains

• 236000 XP
• +1000 reputation with Order of the Cloud Serpent

Notes

Pick up  [10-35] Empty Nests and  [10-35] Egg Collection before heading out.

Head north away from Tong and circle clockwise to the northwest around the high bluff to reach the saurok camp, killing saurok and leashing cloud serpent hatchlings along the way. Once Slitherscale Rippers are found, the eggs will also be nearby.
