Find Sorin in Goru'kar Mesa near location -660, 1025 (in a camp northwest of the Blightfire Moors zone line).

You say, 'Hail, Sorin'

Sorin says 'Hail and well met. What are you doing in our fine [encampment]?'

You say, 'Your encampment..'

Sorin says 'Ah this. Well, we decided that this area was a bit too dangerous and we had to get over our solitary ways. We banded together for our common good. Well, common until [Devan] got that thorn in his hoof.'

You say, 'Who is Devan?'

Sorin says 'Well, Devan is leader of the [Tuffein]. But do we really need to talk about them? Maybe instead you would like to help me bring some [humor] into their dour lives.'

You say, 'Tell me about the Tuffein'

Sorin says 'That is a sad story. Their way just cannot be right. It cannot be right to [capture] Drakkin and send them to [Dyn`leth].'

You say, 'Who is Dyn`leth?'

Sorin says 'I am not exactly sure who he is, but he seems to have great interest in the Drakkin. He sent someone called Ambassador Dan`mot to convince us to help him [capture] drakkin.'

You say, 'Capture the drakkin?'

Sorin says 'Yes. Ambassador Dan`mot came to us to represent [Dyn`leth]. He tried to convince us that the drakkin were here to invade, and that we should capture them and send them to Dyn`leth. There was already [disagreement] between [Nicoli] and Devan, and when Nicoli decided to refuse the offer, Devan decided to side with Dyn`leth and capture drakkin. A small number of our brothers sided with Devan, implying that we were fools and Dyn`leth would [crush] us.'

You say, 'Crush you...?'

Sorin says 'Well, while they have not crushed us, we have had some issues. If you have enough experience, Pereteanu may have some information about an attack that is rumored.'

You say, 'Who is Nicoli?'

Sorin says 'Nicoli is our leader. It is a tough job. I cannot see how he manages to stay as carefree as he does. He is a fine example for us all.'

You say, 'Tell me about the disagreement'

Sorin says 'It seems that Devan was insulted by a decision that Nicoli had made about who should command the scouts. He would never forget it and started spreading rumors that brought down the spirits of the whole tribe. I think he finally used the decision to not help Dyn`leth as a chance to break off from the tribe. Devan left, with a small band of our brothers, of his own accord. It left Nicoli sad for a full day.'

You say, 'How can I help humor them?'

Sorin says 'They take themselves too seriously. So we like to tweak their tails from time to time. Why don't you help us [show them] humor again.'

You say, 'I'll show them'

Sorin says 'You seem a bit experienced to take on such a task, but you are still welcome at it! I may have a few tasks for you to go tweak their tails.'

Among the tasks you can choose from is These Biscuits are Awfully Hard.

You have been assigned the task 'These Biscuits are Awfully Hard'.

Sorin wants your help. He'd like you to take some food from those unpleasant Tuffein and replace it with stones. He believes this might teach them a lesson. Go to Blightfire Moors and collect some rocks from the gnoll mining camp.



Explore the gnoll mining camp in the Moors 0/1 (Blightfire Moors)

This step updates as you enter the mine closest to Cresent Reach, but may work with any of the mines.

Collect 3 piles of rocks 0/3 (Blightfire Moors)

Approach any of the "a pile of rocks" inside the mines and a "pile of rocks" will appear on your cursor. This can be done while invisible without fighting anything.

Sneak into the Tuffien camp 0/1 (Goru`Kar Mesa)

This updates at location -1590, -865, 23 (southeastern part of the Mesa).

Replace their food storage with rocks from the Gnoll camp 0/3 (Goru`Kar Mesa)

The three barrels outside the four tents on the east wall are their food. Run up to them and they will change to a rock pile and the "pile of rocks" will disappear from your inventory. (Invis works here as well.)

Speak with Sorin 0/1 (Goru`Kar Mesa)

Just an fyi....the rock piles your looking for are actually in the mines themselves, not around the tents outside
More spawn points

These Biscuits are Awfully Hard

Step 1. "Explore the gnoll mining camp in the Moors"
Task updated as I entered the mine closest to Cresent Reach but may work with any of the mines.....

Step 2 is "Collect 3 piles of rocks"
Approach any of the "a pile of rocks" and a "pile of rocks" will appear on your cursor. Can be done invis without fighting anything.

Step 3 is "Sneak into the Tuffien camp" back in the Mesa
/Loc -1591, -866, 23

Step 4 is "Replace their food storage with rocks from the Gnoll camp"
The 3 barrels outside the 4 tents on the east wall are their food. Run up to them and they will change to a rock pile and the "pile of rocks" will disappear from your inventory. Invis works well... no fights...

Step 5 is "Speak with Sorin"

reward is exp (not noticable at lvl 66)
