Screecher Spirits

Capture the spirits of 3 screechers in Feralas, then return to Yeh'kinya in Steamwheedle Port.

	Screecher Spirits Collected (3)
	Yeh'kinya's Bramble

Provided Item:

	Yeh'kinya's Bramble

Description

I seek the spirits of the vale screechers of Feralas. They are the cousins of an old, old god, and their spirits are linked to him.

Take this bramble wand and go to Feralas. Find and defeat vale screechers in southern and central Feralas, then wave my bramble over their fallen bodies. This will coax their spirit to reveal itself. Touch the spirit and collect its essence.

Return to me with my bramble and with the collected essence, and I will tell you more of the old god of which I spoke.

Progress

Have you collected the essence of the screecher spirits, <name>?

Completion

You have done well, <name>. Perhaps now it is time to reveal more...

There is an ancient prophecy among the trolls, where the dead god Hakkar, the Soulflayer, will one day return to this earth. Some say the coming of Hakkar will bring joy and glory to trollkind, while others believe his resurrection marks the end of all things.

I do not believe this myth, but I do know the essence of Hakkar holds great power, and this power should be kept from those who would abuse it...

Gains

Upon completion of quests, get:

375 experience (22 50 at max. level)

This is part of a long chain quest designed to familiarize you with Zul'Gurub and the Zandalar Tribe. Much of the rewards are decent for their level. The Faded Hakkari Cloak is only slightly worse than everyone's favorite Hide of the Wild. Definitely a worthwhile chain for someone that doesn't want to shell out for the Hide.

Here's the full quest chain:
- Screecher Spirits(Feralas) - https://vanillawowdb.com/?quest=3520 https://vanillawowdb.com/?quest=3520

- The God Hakkar(Temple of Atal'Hakkar) - https://vanillawowdb.com/?quest=3528 https://vanillawowdb.com/?quest=3528
- The Lost Tablets of Mosh'aru(Eastern Plaguelands) - https://vanillawowdb.com/?quest=5065 https://vanillawowdb.com/?quest=5065

Vale Screechers (https://vanillawowdb.com/?npc=5307 https://vanillawowdb.com/?npc=5307).
Rogue Vale Screechers (https://vanillawowdb.com/?npc=5308 https://vanillawowdb.com/?npc=5308).

Best place is the path out the front of Dire Maul, bring a Hunter with Beast Tracking if you're not one yourself.

A minor note to add, using the Bramble on a corpse will give credit to all in your party that are nearby, so if you are grouped you will still only need to track down a total of three.

[Alliance] From Feathermoon Stronghold, i swam east to the Forgotten Coast, just on land , very near the shore at [ 46, 49 ]
I found four Rogue Vale Screechers (45), very easy to kill for any class. Once killed, before looting, used my clicky on them to summon their spirits, then looted, and off to the next, was done in under 5 minutes. Hopefully screenshot to follow.

If you have the quest to collect the yeti hides, you can just stand around 58,58 killing the yeti's close by and also just get the screecher that respawns there every few minutes.

Ok folks I have added before, during and after screen shots of this quest. I was a bit unsure as to what it is I was killing so here are pics and enjoy killing. Also ""Talk"" to the spirit to add it to your quest log. Don't kill, use wand and walk away. Talk to the un-holy thing.

By jgazzie on 10/11/2007 (Patch 2.2.3)

Excellent spot. Forgotton Coast. 46, 48. usually 5-6, all lvl 46. Easy Quest. Just make sure after you release the spirit, you talk to them to collect the credit.

By pdubz on 02/28/2008 (Patch 2.3.3)

Go to location 46,41 and kill the things flying around. kill three and after each one u kill make sure the corspe is selected and use your [Yeh'kinya's Bramble] in your inventory and it will spawn the same mob but it will be a ghost and u can right click it and talk to it. do it tree times and your done! BTW this is the start of the hakkar chain quest.

By angelofdeath212 on 03/27/2008 (Patch 2.4.0)

just to clear it up for anyone that might be wondering all these coordinates are FERALAS. i had a guild mate wandering around in tanaris for about 20 minutes looking for them XD. Go to Feralas and go to coordinates 46,39 thanks to nightwatch, excellent spot.

Is there any FP to Feralas? I'm probably taking the long way by running through Desolace....but that's the only way i've been able to get there, lvl 47 hunter.....

I would just like to to point out that the first sentence of the quest log says these are in Feralas. Anyone who was confused about the zone is a little to addicted to Wowhead.

A minor note: You can actually take credit from someone else killing the screecher for you. You don't have to kill or do a thing for the quest, or even tag the mob, just use the item.

By russkii on 03/15/2009 (Patch 3.0.9)

As of 3.1 you cannot use the quest item while on a mount or on a living vale screecher. You must kill the vale, use the item, and talk to the spirit to get credit. You can do this quest with any type of screeching vale.

:: SKINNERS! ::

Be careful because its easy to skin these guys by accident, which will prevent you from completing the objective. Be sure to left click on the dead body, not right click.

Edited: I was able to complete this quest. I read on thottbot that it was a tracking issue with the quest. I was not tracking it, but I did had a helper addon. I logged out, disabled all my addons, logged back in, and I was able to complete the quest then. Hope it helps someone.

Working correctly as of 9/13/09. Make sure you're talking to the spirit after releasing it using the wand provided.

The quest is buggy for me. I am using the wand... and talking to them before they release the spirit and nothing.

Handy thing to note, you can still get the spirit, even if somebody else not in your party has killed it.

just the one that dont know you have to click on the spirits in order to collect the credit, you can also collect the spirit before they are dead

It appears that this quest chain has been removed as of patch 4.0.1 in advance of the removal of Zul'Gurub from the game with the release of Cataclysm.
