Located on the dark side of the moon, Hollowshade Moor is in a constant state of darkness and is the site of an ongoing struggle between owlbears, sonic wolves, and grimlings; each trying to retain control over the land. It is also the site of one of Luclin's best views of Norrath.

I am working on Broker Fahaar's Tailoring Quest, and all I need is a grimling fingerbone to get to the last part. Having spent three days killing grimling skeletons in the pit in Shar Vahl, I discover now that they drop off of grimlings in HM.

So my lvl 10 Beastlord wanders that way. No mobs in sight. I checked out the outpost, then decided to hang near the outpost guards (who con warmly) and just look around to be on the safe side. I see a black wolf nearby, which quickly disappears altogether. I take a couple of steps in the direction I last saw it, only to be attacked from behind. By the time I turned around and conned the sonic wolf (red of course), I have gone from 100% health to 20%. I am maybe six steps from the guards. I take two steps toward them and die. Thanks for the help, guard dudes!

My questions are:
1. Do the sonic wolves teleport around like blink dogs in D&D, or was I the victim of your typical lag-warp?
2. Are grimling fingerbones no drop, or do I have some hope of buying them?
3. Which grimlings drop fingerbones?
4. Is there any hope for a 10th lvl Beastlord, alone or in a group of like-leveled players, of getting a grimling fingerbone and getting out alive?

Thank you in advance for any assistance you may offer.

There is only one wolf who wanders past the outpost. Keep an eye out for him and you can be safe. He comes down the road from the sonic wolf cave, past the outpost, turning left just before the city entrance.

If you hug the city walls, as though you are traveling to Paludal Caverns, you will come to a lake with many islands on it. On these islands are grimling herders who do drop the rare toes, and even rarer fingerbones. They con blue to my lvl 23, but are underconned (like everything on the Moor), and they will gang up on you. The tortoises they herd are non-aggro but will poison you if you fight them.

I hope this helps. If the data is a duplication of information further in the page, please forgive me for not reading all the way through first. =)

That wolf is probably around 30-35, they are rather annoying as they agro on me even though they are green. they have about a level 30's hps.
I would not try to kill those grimlings for their fingers til you are close to level 30 with a group. grimlings are levels 20-30 and rest is even higher.

I can answer questions 1 and 4.

1 They don't teleport. Most of the mobs in Hollowshade have been lagging pretty bad lately.

4 I don't think a lvl 10 has much of a chance at killing anything in the moor. The lowest mobs there are like around 12, and the grimlings are higher than that.
