A Meal Served Cold

Kill a Cold Eye Basilisk, get a Chilled Basilisk Haunch, and return it to Angus Stern in the Blue Recluse.
Chilled Basilisk Haunch

Description

One of my most famous dishes is Chilled Basilisk in Lime Vinaigrette. But the problem is... the meat is impossible to keep fresh, and I must serve the dish tonight for a noble's birthday!

So if you can bring me a Chilled Basilisk Haunch from a freshly-killed Cold Eye Basilisk, quickly, then I will owe you a king's feast!

Cold Eye Basilisks are known to roam along the beach dunes of northwestern Stranglethorn, so you have much traveling to do. And be swift!

Reward

Also, you get: 1 50

Progress

<name>! Do you have that haunch? I must begin preparing it soon, or the banquet will be ruined!

Completion

Ah, this will do nicely! Many, many thanks!

Now if you'll excuse me, I must get the haunch chopped, marinated and garnished for the banquet.

Gains

Upon completion of quests, get:
  • 470 experience (28 20 at max. level)
  • 500 Reputation with Stormwind

When you accept the quest, you get a 30 minute timer. It takes about four minutes to fly the Stormwind to Booty Bay route, and the Cold-Eye Basilisks are along the road and on the west shore in the middle of Stranglethorn.

I'm a lvl 39 hunter. I did it with 18 minutes left. Fly to booty bay. run north. The cold-eye basilisks are on the west side of the road just north of the Gurubashi arena. Then I hearthed back to SW. (I have Aspect of the Cheetah but even without, there is plenty of time.)

Very easy!! Lvl 39 Druid. Flew to Booty Bay, used the dash ability to get me outside quickly. Transferred to travel form and found my first basilisk at 37,40. Got the haunch on the first drop. Hearthed back to SW, 16 minutes left. Glad I read your other comments because I almost abandoned this one before quickly checking it out.

You might recognize the basilisks if you already did this https://vanillawowdb.com/?quest=192 Panther Mastery Quest as the Shadowmaw Panthers are in the same area. At least, that's where I killed all mine. :)

I did this with a 37 holy priest. Flew to Sentinal Hill, then ran south along river, then west to the coast. Killed a few Crystal Spine Basilisks for another quest otw to Arena area Coastline. Hearthed back to SW, and still had about 4 mins left!

When the quest says ""northwestern"" remember that STV has a lot of North/South territory in it. The basilisks you seek are SE of Grom'Gol base.

This does count towards Loremaster of Eastern Kingdoms, this was the last one for me to get the achievment.

Weirdly enough, the in-game quest tracker says ""Return to Angus Stern at Mirror Lake in Elwynn Forest"" once you've picked up the quest item. Nevertheless, you have to turn it in at the Blue Recluse in Stormwind City of course!

This quest is just dumb. Why does the quest timer eventually start when you accept the quest?
The timer should be on the quest item if you think of it...
