The Bait for Lar'korwi

Using the contents of Torwa's Pouch, summon Lar'korwi and defeat him. Then bring Lar'korwi's Head to Torwa Pathfinder near the entrance to Un'Goro Crater.
Lar'korwi's Head
Provided Item:
Torwa's Pouch

Description

This will be the most difficult part because there is some complexity to the plan. To the north of here, you will find a small trail into the mountains. It was here I saw Lar'korwi last. You will know you are in the right area because of all the bones from massive creatures that once wandered nearby. Take the meat you recovered and place it there. Then, rub this mixture I created on the meat. If both lures mingled together do not bring Lar'korwi to you, then I know nothing else that will.

Reward

You can choose one of these awards:
Plainstalker Tunic
Outrider Leggings

Progress

Do not let fear overpower you, <name>. Fear is the great betrayer... you must remain strong!

Take the meat, place it in the small valley, and then use the gland on it. Only then will death come for you.

Completion

The Earth Mother be praised! You've done it! Fair play to you, <name>. You have proven to be a great <class> in your own right. Your spirit is strong. Your bravery unmatched. And your strength has been fortified. I bow down to your skills.

Only the greatest of my ancestors could have accomplished something so incredible. Congratulations.

Gains

Upon completion of quests, get:
  • 730 experience (43 80 at max. level)

79, 49. Look for the Pylon, it's up the hill behind it; you're looking for black rock.

Yes don't let the level of this mob scare you. I was a level 53 warrior and got him quick. He is about as hard to kill as one of the level 50 to 51 tar guys just below the flight point. At level 53 I my plate armor was at 43%. He only hit me for 40 to 46 damage each time.

The coords 79, 49 are correct. (79.9 x 49.9 to be exact) You will see a small black rock east of The Eastern Pylon
(view screenshot #2 for rock location)
First right click on the Torwa's Pouch that is provided.
You will receive 2 items: Preserved Threshadon Meat &amp; Preserved Pheromone Mixture
Stand on top of the black rock in screenshot 2 and right click on the Meat (This will place it on the rock)
Then right click on the Mixture, this will cause Lar'korwi to spawn by The Eastern Pylon and charge at you.
This quest may say: Requires level 48 but he resisted most of my spells at level 48 so 1 or 2 more levels will be needed to solo.
(If your going to post what level you killed the mob, you should add some info about the quest to help others or don't post at all)

If you aren't confident that you are going to be able to kill him in your first attempt accept the quest and open Torwa's Pouch then abandon the quest and pick it up again to receive another pouch (you won't be able to open it until you use the meat and pheromone form the other bag). This will let you have a second attempt without having to run all the way back to Torwa for the pouch.

Found your instructions helpful :) but screenshot 2 a bit unclear.

See screenshot 3 for better view of where the black rock is in relation to the pilon, I've marked it with a red cross.

You get quite a bit of time to catch your breath whilst Lar'korwi runs from the Eastern Pylon (shown at the far end of the screenshot) towards you.
I managed to kill him as a lvl 51 druid by applying scroll buffs prior to summoning him and using a superior healing potion towards the end. I used Innervate at the start to make sure my mana was regenerating whilst i spammed him with starfire / wrath / moonfire, turned to cat for a bit more dps, and then used Barkskin to prevent any interrupts whilst healing myself.. then back to cat.. and drink potion as needed.
10,550xp on hand-in :D

As a level 49 frost mage, I could not solo this quest as Lar'korwi resisted every single one of my spells. I managed to run away using Blink, etc, but casters at least should be wary of this quest's level just because he will resist most of your spells until probably around 52 or 53. I will post back when I find the level when I can complete the quest.

Solo'd with a 50 Feral Druid. Just carve him up in cat form and switch to bear, bash and pop healing touch if your health gets low. He doesnt seem to hit for much damage despite his level. Once you place the meat on the rock, it'll take a few seconds for him to arrive up the path you came in... Interestingly, this is where a GY is and Lar'Korwi actually aggroed a sick 50 human mage who was eating/drinking there on the way up the instead of me, good times...

Solo'd with a 51 protection spec Paladin, never even took me under 95% HP. Just rotate judgement of light, seal of light, holy shield, and consecrate when you think you can spare the mana.

I think I can safely say that any class can solo this mob. Just make sure you play it safe.

As a feral druid it was incredibly easy.

By Chupz on 03/27/2009 (Patch 3.0.9)
Soloed as a Lvl 49 feral druid. Used one healing potion and healed myself once, stayed in cat form in between and kept attacking him and bleeding him. If you're as low level as I was, having Nature's Grasp accessible is helpful so you can root him while you heal.

I really didn't have any problems doing this though besides finding that tiny rock ^_^

Solo'd easily as lvl 50 Ret Pala in decent gear, some attacking were missing / parried but after about 40seconds he was down, no need for bubble or any cd's for that matter.

How I did this as a lvl. 51 enhancement shaman in mediocre gear:
- Water Shield.
- Lay bait.
- Plant totems: Windfury, Stoneskin, Healing Stream, Searing or Magma. I've got the buttons for them all in the same taskbar, so I had time to plant them before he got to the bait.
- Lightning Bolt while he was out of melee range.
- Stormstrike, Earth Shock and Lava Lash whenever they were off cooldown.
- Lesser Healing Wave when I needed it. Refresh Water Shield as soon as all three charges have gone.
- Pray that he didn't resist or dodge. Luckily he didn't.
A couple of minutes later, one dead raptor. Ta-daa.

Soloed as a 48 enchance shaman. He doesn't really hit that hard and is a joke as long as you keep water shield up and heal yourself.

Don't know if anyone is having the same problem as me..... attempted the quest 3 times. i would dismount, place the flesh on the rock, wait ON the rock and the raptor would NOT come. anyone have any tips? or is it just bugged....

feedback would be nice. =D

Make sure when you put the piece of meat on the flat rock that you use the Preserved Pheromone Mixture after or he won't appear.

Just soloed as a 50 Shaman after respeccing for enhancement. Dropped Strength of Earth, Magma, Healing and Nature resistance totems then spawned meat. Kept hitting with Stormstrike and Lava Lash. Windfury on main hand and Flame on offhand. Use water shield as he will take a lot of mana as he resists a lot of Nature spells at this level. Easy enough though.

just lay down the items you got from the quest and he will spond he is a lvl 56 so if your 52 below get ready make sure you put it ON THE STONE. Its up the mountain.

Just solo'd as LVL 49 Pally with no heirloom gear. Not easy, but doable obviously. Had to pop lifeblood and Gift of Naaru. Used one mana potion, then switched to Seal of Wisdom. Two Holy lights and several Consecrations later I was hrowing Hammer of Wrath. It took four of them to finally drop this thing. I was like OMG why won't you die! It was fun, but the rewards suck for me.

Just solo'd this as a level 51 ele shammy. I thought I might have some trouble due to the level difference, but it was pretty easy. Next to none of my spells missed and I only had to heal once and came out of it with more than half of my mana.

As a 51 Balance druid, i popped treants, and they did most of the damage.
Good thing too, because i missed 5 or 6 spells. &gt;.&lt;

Soloed this as a level 49 Balance Druid in heirlooms.
It was a hard fight, considering his level, and the fact that about every 3 of 5 spells missed him.

Here's what I did, though.
- Refreshed my buffs
- Got a well fed buff with stam
- Topped off my mana
- summoned Lar'korwi
- Got lucky and caught him in my Entangling Roots
- Dropped my faerie fire, moonfire, and insect swarm
- Spammed Starfire like hell.
- When I got to about 65% health, I dropped rejuvenation and regrowth on my self
- At 45% mana, I used innervate
- Once my mana had hit 45% again, I used a potion
- Continued to starfire spam, refreshing debuffs/DoTs as needed

It was a close fight and I was almost OOM when it was done, but no deaths, no issues besides a string of misses.

I just soloed this with my level 48 MM Hunter and figured I would post since the new patch and changes have gone live. I was wary of the level, but the fight turned out to be brief and easy, lasting the length of a single rotation, leaving me without a scratch and my pet without fear of dropping dead.

I sent the pet off with a preemptive Mend, waited until it grabbed aggro, and proceeded to HM&gt;PS&gt;ArS&gt;ArS&gt;ArS&gt;SS&gt;SS&gt;KS. There was a hiccough after the second Arcane Shot when my pet, a level 48 Gorilla, lost aggro, but a quick Feign Death was enough to bring things back in line. Kill Shot was the final nail in the coffin, living up to its name.

This quest is still available (and completable) in 4.03, but the location to complete it has changed. Just stand on the black rock at 70.140.9 - where you first got the mixture and in the middle of a skeleton carcass, i.e. where your map is indicating you to be - and right click the meat first, then the vial.
