Blood Tinged Skies

Slay 30 Plaguebats and return to Tirion Fordring.
  •  
Plaguebat slain (30)

Description

Woe to those that foolishly wander into the Plaguelands. All manner of foulness inhabit these woods - from the fanatical Scarlet Crusade, who will kill any that do not bear the mark of the Crusade, to the murderous Scourge, who only look to bolster their numbers by adding more undead to their ranks.

Even the wildlife have been transformed into rapacious, man eating beasts. I ask that you destroy those that would strike from the skies: The Plaguebats.

Progress

Do not underestimate the winged vermin, <race>. The Plague has given them supernatural abilities.

Completion

You are a shining example of decency, <race>! It has been long since I have felt the blood of heroes pump through my veins. Your acts of bravery are uplifting!

Gains

Upon completion of quests, get:
  • 580 experience (34 80 at max. level)

For multitasking, pick up:
Carrion Grubbage - https://vanillawowdb.com/?quest=5544 https://vanillawowdb.com/?quest=5544 and
Demon Dogs - https://vanillawowdb.com/?quest=5542 https://vanillawowdb.com/?quest=5542 
At the same NPC you picked this quest, as the mobs you need for the quests all roam in the same area.

The Plaguebats have an annoying ability that fears you in one direction for 5 - 6 seconds, but aren't that difficult to kill.

This quest has got to be the most grinding-needed one ever. As there are no nests, and you only, ONLY need the Plaguebats, it'll take some time.

Found this location with 4-10 maybe, south west of Corrin's Crossing, west of the lake. Coordnates are 55.76. Keep killing them towards the west, I promise you, LOADS!

This will definetly speed things up, happy Hunting!

oh yeah; as stated by Stagen, multitasking with the carrion worms and the Plaguehound runts etc is smart. Same quest giver, and you need to do them all to get the followup, where he tells u his grandpa's tale. (that's what I've been told ;)

HUNTERS:
The short duration fear is no problem. last about 4 seconds, and you won't even notice your pet running around as it's also drops your speed to 50%. Some of you might have figured this one out already, but track beasts!

Once you've completed all three of his initial quests (i.e., this quest, Carrion Grubbage, and Demon Dogs), Tirion will offer https://vanillawowdb.com/?quest=5742"">(Quest #5742), the next quest in his series.

Also, a warning to protection paladins: You'll be tempted to round up a bunch of the bats and consecrate them down at once, but that's not such a good idea. There's no diminishing return on their fear effect, and if you've got three or more on you they'll quickly spam their way through any fear breaks you may have. If you're doing the other Fordring quests, pick up maybe one of these and then add in some grubs and plaguehounds.

8450xp per quest (x3) + 75 mobs to kill at an average about 275xp/kill (assuming the worm meat is 100% drop, which it isn't), and these quests give you

25350 for quests
+20625 for mobs

equals

45975 xp for these three quests.

at lvl 57 which requires 159900 xp, these three quests are more than 1/4 of your level.

DO THEM! especially since at 57 it's very easy killing, only took about an hour tops.
