"Pretty Boy" Duncan

Get Catelyn's dagger from "Pretty Boy" Duncan.
Catelyn's Blade

Description

My FATHER sent you? I'd have thought that old codger would have given up on me by now.

It wasn't really his fault I ran off, he just shouldn't have expected I'd be willing to live a boring life, reading over musty books and associating with grey-haired, stiff-backed, stuffy mages!

If you need my dagger, you'll have to get it back from "Pretty Boy" Duncan, one of the Bloodsail Buccaneers. Put something 'tween his shoulders and I'm sure he'll give it up.

Progress

I'd never been beat before, you know, <name>? Sure I'd been cut, can't get in a knife fight without that, but he just smacked me on the side of the head, blacked me out. When I came to my blade was gone.

As much as my nickname might indicate, I still need a knife to fight, and for me, it has to be that one.

Completion

You beat Duncan? I guess you aren't as wet behind the ears as you looked at first glance.

I suppose that also means I shouldn't challenge you to a fight any time soon!

Gains

Upon completion of quests, get:

Duncan can be found right off the pathway near booty bay, he spawns randomly. Watch out for the mages. If you ever start dying, start running to the Booty Bay entrance, The bruisers will take care of them.

He isn't really hard. It's just the people around him. He is located right outside the Booty Bay entrance to your left like Orik said.

If done carefully, you can pull each mob out surrounding him and kill them one by one.
People often grind here, so if you're lucky Duncan may be all by himself.
A useful tip is that if you're too lazy to kill the mobs around him yourself, or you're incapable of doing so, tag a mob and run back to Booty Bay. At the entrance of the tunnel to BB, there are 2 level 60 guards who will make quick work of the Pirates. This way, you can isolate Duncan easily.

Each of the mobs near his camp (27, 70) can be picked out one by one, this is easily soloable in the lower 40s.

I got lucky soloing this as a level 37 druid. Stealthing past the mobs and swimming out to a position off the beach opposite Duncan, I made sure that he was just inside spell range. Once the surrounding mobs were at their furthest distance from Duncan, I cast a Moonfire on him. This pulled him out into the water without aggroing any of the mobs.

If you're lower then 39 i would recommend swimming from the boat dock in booty bay. (it actually seemed faster then walking out through the tunnel). just follow the shoreline to your right.. you'll come up from behind the bunch of them. Get to the short wooden bridge at (27.3-68.6) and pull the 40 bloodsail raider on the left of pretty boy. once you kill him you can pull pretty boy right to ya. makes it a real easy quest. was pretty easy for me as a 36 lock.

I am a level 34 hunter. After attempting all of the prescribed methods and failing miserably, I went through Booty Bay. I jumped off the dock of the boat to Ratchet, swam around the headland to the north to where his camp is, and climbed on to the rock jutting out of the water. Pull ""Pretty Boy"" to you with an arrow swim into the water so he gets further from the gang had my pet attack and just lesurely shot his carcass back into hell.

To all priests: Mind Control the mages, and the whole camp is taken down easy peasy. Unless you aggro them before you're within range though...

All of these ""Pull 'im, he's really easy from then out,"" tips are great and fine for those non-paladins, but as a paladin I have no easy means of pulling him. What should I do in this case?

Edit: This comment is mostly obsolete now that paladins have taunts and exorcism can hit any target.

Did this at level 38 frost mage, this must have changed as there is zero difficulty, could have done this at a lower level with ease, as stated hes right on the path out of booty bay!

If you are friendly with Bloodsail Buccaneers and can't attack this guy, just go to your reputation tab and set them ""at war"".

I found https://vanillawowdb.com/?npc=2545 Pretty Boy Duncan on one of the ships to the south of the cape around the islands. However he only dropped Dizzy's Eye for the quest https://vanillawowdb.com/?quest=576 ""Keep An Eye Out"" . I also noticed that the quest https://vanillawowdb.com/?quest=610 ""Pretty Boy"" Duncan lists it as a quest in Northern Stranglethorn on the quest log. The in game quest helper shows him to be near the bridge just northwest of the entrance of Booty Bay in The Cape of Stranglethorn. Something is very wrong here, or the data just is not available yet. This is live information coming from Rivendare Server 11/27/10.

""This quest was marked obsolete by Blizzard and cannot be obtained or completed.""

It shouldn't be in the game anymore. Trying to complete this quest is useless and a waste of time, as it is impossible as of patch 4.0.3.
