Torn Murloc Fin (8)

Description

The Stormwind Army has placed a bounty on murloc lurkers and foragers in Elwynn. Slaughter them and bring me their torn murloc fins, and the Stormwind Army will reward you well.

The murlocs have built a village at Stone Cairn Lake north of here, and another to the south where the stream forks.

Reward

You can choose one of these awards:
Long Bayonet
Solid Metal Club
Well-used Sword

Progress

How goes the hunting, <name>?

Completion

You have the fins? Great! Marshal Dughan is anxious about the Murloc situation in eastern Elwynn, and I'd like to tell him that it's becoming under control.

Your actions have helped realize that.

Gains

Upon completion of quests, get:
  • 850 experience (5 10 at max. level)
  • 250 Reputation with Stormwind

The murlocs are located upstream the river and to the northeast. They are easily spotted by their island-style huts, and the fins don't take too long to drop but the murlocs are very difficult to face alone at level 10. Tough quest imho.

I found out the drop rate to be a bit low, and the Murlocs are quite hard to fight at level 9. Gives good XP though. Also, be careful with the aggro, as the Murlocs in the camp are really near of each other.

Deliver the Thomas Report is the prerequisite to this quest, but it is not listed as such on Wowhead.

The attack speed on the quest rewards are questionable compared to slightly less dps weapons you'd get a little earlier in the game.

They also drop from the little island to the south. Travel south down the river and there's a smaller camp of murlocs. Note that the murlocs at Crystal Lake do not drop the Murloc Fins.

The only good Murloc is a dead one.

Ah, one of the very first quests introducing you to the worst enemy of many beginning humans: murlocs. You will love this quest for the rewards (or not). You will hate this quest because of the damn murlocs.

I don't think it is time-efficient to do this quest while leveling. Murlocs are generally at Level 10 and they are always together so it is not easy to pull them one by one. Besides https://vanillawowdb.com/?item=780"" class=""qundefined icontiny"" style=""background-image: url(images/icons/tiny/inv_misc_monsterscales_02.gif)"">Torn Murloc Fin's drop rate is low so maybe the toughest quest in Elwynn Forest to do.

Personally i always skip this quest and move on to https://vanillawowdb.com/?zone=40"">Westfall

The Murlocs dropped https://vanillawowdb.com/?item=1468 Murloc Fins more often than the https://vanillawowdb.com/?item=780 Torn Murloc Fins.

Can't I just... like... tear the ones I got?
