• Test of Mettle

Provided Item:

•  [Bloodied Scalping Knife]

DescriptionEdit

Alright, friend. You've done us a favor or two, but that's not the true test of a person's courage.

Around these parts, you're not a real hunter unless you wear your prey's skin.

<Sergei unsheathes his skinning knife and hands it to you.>

The leader of those motherless orcs attacking our town is called Bonesnap; you'll find him at a camp further northwest.

That's right. You're going to skin the monster.

Progress Edit

The people in Silverbrook ... they're not what they seem.

CompletionEdit

Don't do it, <name>. The people that sent you here.... you shouldn't trust them.

GainsEdit

• 15550 XP (or 7 47 at level 80)

NotesEdit

Bonesnap comes with two guards.

Upon killing Bonesnap...

Captured Trapper says: Stop! Put that knife away. You don't have to do... whatever they sent you to do. You're not like them yet!
