Shadow Panther Heart (5)
Mire Lord Fungus
Deepstrider Tumor

Description

I have just the right serum in mind. It will deal with the truth in precisely the way the truth should be dealt with.

For this concoction I will need several Shadow Panther hearts from the Swamp. I also require the enchanted fungus off of the Mire Lord who resides there. I am sure one as able as you, <name>, can persuade him to part with some.

Now the hard part will be locating a Deepstrider tumor from far-off Desolace. Very rarely the giants there become ill and a tumor forms.

Now, off you go!

Reward

You can choose one of these awards:
Cloak of Blight
Cragwood Maul

Progress

That Infiltrator in Stonard will surely.... open up... after he drinks my special serum. Haha!

The ingredients required are by no means easy to procure. Shadow Panthers are common in the Swamp but collecting enough hearts for our purpose can be daunting. And the Mire Lord can be such a fussy beast.

As for the Deepstrider tumor, they are terribly difficult to find. But the chemical reaction I can draw from it is second to none.

Completion

Splendid, <name>! And just in time too. From what Zraedus tells me, the Infiltrator has recovered from his wounds and is ready to be questioned by the orcs.

Give me but a moment to prepare the pois - I mean prepare the truth serum.

Gains

Upon completion of quests, get:
  • 430 experience (25 80 at max. level)
  • 350 Reputation with Undercity

Pretty simple quest.

The Mire Lord fungus and Shadow Panther hearts are easy drops off of regular mobs in the Swamp of Sorrows. The Mire Lord is located in the cave at the North Western end of Misty Valley (coordinates 5,31). The Panther's can be found along the edge of the Shadowmurk and the Misty Reed Strand, they are stealthed however so they may be difficult to find without something to boost your detection.

The Deepstrider Tumor can be gotten off of the Elite Giants in Desolace. They aren't too difficult and the most reliable place to find the is in the ocean just south of Ethel Rethor, near the Drysnap Crawlers. Easy to combo this part of the quest with hunting for the keys.

Turn it in for some amusing dialogue, then deliver the poison to Stonard for some easy XP.

Shadow Panthers can be found from 73,8 to about 91,50 just follow the long path and use nearest target button and then they won't be hard to find :)

Well.. finding the panthers are easiest thing to do if you know how to do correctly.

Just create a Macro /target shadow

and keep on press the new macro while you walk along the way. you can easily get them even you can't see them by eyes

I found the quest was easy, no need to leave the swamp, the Green Whelp Blood was picked up at Itharius's Cave(13,59) from the Dreaming Whelp. Just head south after getting the fungus.

Here is a quick tip for those trying to get the hearts:

Go to the Misty Reed Strand and make a macro /target shadow panther, then simply walk/ride your choice, up and down the strand until you find them. I was also able to complete ""Fresh Meat"" and ""Lack of Surplus"" as I gathered the hearts.

In the 2.3 content patch this quest was altered and you no longer need the Deepstrider Tumor and the item has been removed from the game.

I would only do this quest for the amusement value. The time it takes to get the panther hearts plus the travel back and forth pretty much makes this one not good exp for the time invested.

Regarding the Shadow Panthers, I found schatz's comments very accurate. Many Shadow Panthers can be found along the eastern edge of the map, from Fallow Sanctuary down to Misty Reed Strand. I also found the Shadow Panther Heart drop rate was very low so it took me a while to collect 5 of them.

To reiterate: you do NOT need to go to Desolace anymore to complete this quest. Just kill the https://vanillawowdb.com/?npc=741 Dreaming Whelps in SW Swamp of Sorrows. Nevermind what Carbonite says.
