This solo task begins with Fenden Helter in the Citadel of Dragonscale (right next to the port-in location). It has a lockout timer of 18 hours.

You say, 'Hail, Fenden Helter'

Fenden Helter says 'Hey there _____! You look like just my kind of adventurer! Do I have an [opportunity] for you! Why don't you come over here and we'll discuss the riches and adventures that can be yours?'

You say, 'An opportunity?'

Fenden Helter says 'Yes, yes! I alone am in a rather unique and fortunate position and lucky for you I'm willing to allow you to work for me! You see I happen to be close personal friends with nearly everyone in this part of the world. I am so trusted, in fact, that I'm authorized to hire adventurers such as you to perform various, ah, [tasks] for the groups in this part of Faydwer.'

You say, 'What tasks?'

Fenden Helter says 'There are several types of services you can perform for my various employers. You can perform [errands] or engage in [combat] or even perform various [acts] of mischief and sabotage. Whatever you choose you will be rewarded!'

You say, 'Acts of mischief and sabotage?'

Fenden Helter says 'Why don't you take a look at these tasks and see if one or more of these seems like something you'd like to do today?'

A window pops up offering two tasks.

You have been assigned the task 'A Special Favor - Special Delivery!'.

Fenden, acting on behalf of a mysterious individual, as asked you to pick up a package in the Fang Breakers camp in Loping Plains and take it to the entrance to the Hills of Shade, thus proving you can follow exacting instructions to the letter. Unfortunately for you it won't be a simple jog to the Hills of Shade. In fact, Fenden instructs you that you must run a very particular route from the Fang Breakers to the Hills of Shade so that Fenden's employer will know that you can be trusted. Good luck and return to speak with Fenden after you have accomplished this task!

Pick up the package from the Fang Breakers camp in Loping Plains (0/1) - Loping Plains

Click and pick up the brown box called "Special Delivery" from the ground near the campfire in the camp. You will also receive a Delivery Facilitator.

Go due West from the gate and cross the river near the bridge. (0/1) - Loping Plains

This is directly west from the camp and is guarded by orcs, updating on the west bank of the river at /loc -1120.17, -605.13, 34.59.

Survive the tiny worgs! Hit them with your Delivery Facilitator! (0/1) - Loping Plains

5 x "a tiny worg" will spawn and attack. They hit between 60 and 140 hp a piece, but are all instantly killed with one click of the Delivery Facilitator from an inventory slot.

Continue West until you reach the road and follow the road through the worgs. (0/1) - Loping Plains

Simply get on the path and follow it toward Hills of Shade. The update occurs near 134.84, 3897.95, 341.93.

Survive the tiny worgs! Hit them with your Delivery Facilitator! (0/1) - Loping Plains

5 x "a tiny worg" will spawn and attack. They hit between 60 and 140 hp a piece, but are all instantly killed with one click of the Delivery Facilitator from an inventory slot.

Enter the Cave that leads to Hills of Shade. (0/1) - Loping Plains

This updates as you cross from the path into the cave, near /loc 2454.80, 3758.30, 362.45. Do not zone into Hills of Shade.

Survive the tiny worgs! Hit them with your Delivery Facilitator! (0/1) - Loping Plains

5 x "a tiny worg" will spawn and attack. They hit between 60 and 140 hp a piece, but are all instantly killed with one click of the Delivery Facilitator from an inventory slot.

Deliver the package to Fenden. (0/1) - Dragonscale Hills

Give the Special Delivery box to Fenden. Turn in of the facilitator is not required.

(Need information about missing steps; locations; dialogues; etc.)

The req. lvl
# Oct 25 2012 at 6:43 AM Rating: Decent
The required level stated on both the "Special Tasks" is wrong, the level you can start doing them are at lvl 65.

This is a fact since 2009 atleast and atleast a majority of the necromancer community have done it from 65 and up aswell

Still OK & works with SoE buff

This task is still working - make sure you have those loc's pasted into your Loping Plains map text file.

I found that the spawn points noted in the post below are spot on & you can spawn the tiny worgs even with SoE buff - you just do a fly past and skim the surface as you go past the spawn point.

Combining this task it with the Ladies of Light errand (the one to pacify the brownies in DSH & LFaydark) I get a fair amount of XP/AA, faction & currency.
Task Bugged after patch?

Couldn't get the worgs to spawn...was invis but did not have levi on. Gave up after about 30 mins of running back and forth between Hills of shade and the Orc Bridge.
Avoid levitation
# Nov 28 2009 at 2:19 AM Rating: Decent
If you levitate above the spawn point, the task gets bugged and you must start over.

My bard stops short of the spawn points and stops singing Selo's, and everything works fine.

I also tested, invis does not cause the task to go buggy.

Not sure exactly when you can get this quest, but I got this and one of the Errands today at only level 74. My next character down is too low to test if it could be gotten at 70 or even 65.

Apparently, the patch on 09/03/2008 fixed or broke (however you want to look at it) getting credit for Reducing the Threat - Worgs task.

Copy into your lopingplains_2.txt:

P 619.1056, 1078.9999, 42.1590, 0, 0, 240, 3, Spawn_Point_1
P -3857.4810, -146.1552, 336.3618, 0, 0, 240, 3, Spawn_Point_2
P -3758.6047, -2417.6816, 358.0075, 0, 0, 240, 3, Spawn_Point_3

There are no faction hits for killing the tiny worgs.

You can be invis to trigger the worgs, but it doesn't trigger with lev on.

The Delivery Facilitator disappears from inventory when completing the task.

Experience was about 90% of an AA at lvl 65 (100% exp to AA).

Upon giving the Special Delivery to Fenden, there is no text from him, only:

Your task 'A Special Favor - Special Delivery!' has been updated.
You have successfully been granted your reward for: A Special Favor - Special Delivery

I tried adding the location info to the file you mentioned. I have Windows 7 and I get a message "Access is Denied". Can someone tell me how to fix this? UPDATE I figured it out.

Side note, it does trigger with levi on (SoE), you just have to look down to "ride" the ground, and circle around the trigger point alot is all. Do it every day.

The exact name for the tiny worgs is "a tiny worg". Five of them spawn at a time. Clicking the Delivery Facilitator kills them all at the same time, with a fiery spell effect, and updates your task. There are no faction hits.

Here's the text from my last encounter with them:

"a tiny worg snaps its jaws and pounces."
"a tiny worg snaps its jaws and pounces."
"a tiny worg snaps its jaws and pounces."
"a tiny worg snaps its jaws and pounces."
"a tiny worg snaps its jaws and pounces."

"a tiny worg cries out in terror and dies!"

Also, killing the tiny worgs will update 15 out of 20 for the separate task Reducing the Threat - Worgs (Loping Plains) if you have it.

Awesome, and yes, I can confirm that it does work (for now at least)!
