Details Edit
These basilisks can be found all over the Shimmering Flats, but there are a few area with them concentrated.
The Saltstone Basilisks can be found primarily in the north-west quadrant of the Shimmering Flats, especially in and around Weazel's Crater.
The Saltstone Crystalhides can be found in both north and south Shimmering Flats, primarily around Weazel's Crater and the Tahonda Ruins.
The Saltstone Gazers are the highest level and can be found in south-eastern Shimmering Flats, primarily around the Tahonda Ruins.
Once you have killed the required number of basilisks, head back to Trackmaster Zherin at the Mirage Raceway at the center of the Shimmering Flats.
Description Edit
After the big crash with the goblins' Red Thunder racer and a basilisk, Kronkrider hired me on to take care of the track. I don't know what all the animals out on the flats are feeding on to grow so big, but we have to be careful to thin them out so they won't wander onto the track when a race is going on.
Tell you what. If you want to go out and make a little profit, go out and remove the basilisks from the area.
Reward Edit
You will receive:
- 35
Progress Edit
It's bad enough having to clear out the wreckage of the racers without having to pick them out of burnt animal parts.
Completion Edit
I hope you didn't kill any of the basilisks on the tracks themselves! It takes a long time for the carcasses to decay in the sun, and I'd rather not have to take a shovel out to clean up.
