Wavethrasher Scales (6)

Description

The wavethrasher is an amphibious beast living only here in Azshara. They are powerful and resilient.

The tough, reflective scales from a wavethrasher mirror the strength of the hunter.

Track and hunt wavethrashers along the coast of Azshara, and bring me their scales.

Progress

Have you met with success?

Completion

The wavethrashers are not easily defeated, even more so in their watery environment.

You have proven yourself ready to hunt even deadlier prey.

Gains

Upon completion of quests, get:
  • 510 experience (30 60 at max. level)

I had the most luck with the regular Wavethrashers up around The Tower of Eldara (86, 25 or so). Took about 30 minutes at lvl 51.

Elite sharks tend to roam around that area, for a wandering 51 hunter, it can be dangerous!

I found a large concentration of Wavethrashers in the bay north of the Temple of Arkkoran (a named landmark on the regular map). Again, just as with the coursers, focus on the higher level beasts to greatly improve the drop rate of the Wavethrasher Scales.

After doing the coursers, the droprate didnt seem so bad. However, less mobs to kill and very spread out, in water nonetheless.

Took me about 40 minutes as a 50 BM hunter. The mobs are pretty easy to kill even being 53 and all, your pet should have the new rank of Growl and be 50 from killing the hundreds of coursers in the previous part of course. =P

Make a targeting macro it'll help you find them, even outside the tracking zone.

Sadly, you can't get the scales through skinning.

Get a few elixirs of water walking https://vanillawowdb.com/?item=8827 https://vanillawowdb.com/?item=8827, put on Aspect of the Cheetah and just run to the north-east part over water where most Wavethrashers are.

Doing this I avoided all major aggro issues when walking over land, plus I killed some thrashers underway. Just be careful of the elite giants and some other mobs, but they can be avoided easily.

Took me about 20 mins to complete. Drop rate on the scales suck. If you go out to the Northeast tip at Jagged Reef they are all over the beach there.

I recommend starting at the southeast portion of the map and moving your way back west along the coastline at the bottom of the area. If you are using Blizz' new quest tracker on their map (I was) the areas that they highlight give you an extremely small area to look in. Use these as a rough guideline, but go further out into the open water - that's where the threshers are. Make sure your tracking is on and the drops should come quickly enough.

Took me about 20 minutes looking around for a way 'up' from the jagged reef from where these guys are found until I finally gave up and hearthed.
Talk about a stupid design! At least make a couple ways up to the regular elevation so players don't get stuck!
Azshara sucks, just throwing it out there.

I will never do another Sunken Temple class specific quest again!

ST becomes available at level 45 but the quest (chain) does not start until 50.
Then you have to travel forever, through heavy high level mobs and elites, to find minimal spawn mobs that have a VERY low drop rate!
And at the end of this GRUELING chain of quests is a reward that is not any better than what you can buy in the auction house for 20 Gold.

Never again.

This quest does NOT count for Loremaster of Kalimdor. Odd since the one prior does.
