Am I the only one who thinks its crappy that Sendrax gave their life to save the egg, and nobody even acknowledges it? RIP friend.

Comment by linda535

Don't mount, don't heal yourself or your pet, don't do anything but carry the &$% egg to 'safety'.

Comment by Quafrinhage

You would do this to me again, Blizzard?

First it was Runas the Shamed, then Ysera (TWICE). Sincerely, screw you.

Comment by 27eper

You have to carry it back to Caretaker Azkra at 55/31. The quest marker was confusing...

Comment by Fyonella

And when you get the egg to it's destination throw it so hard onto the plinth that any self respecting egg would smash and destroy the 'last hope'!

Comment by Oxoth

A truly terrible way to end Sendrax. She was a little twee, but I was just starting to like her and now RIP. Blizzard wtf.

Comment by Mindsoothe

Run. Just run.

Do not even cast Swiftmend. You will drop the egg.

Comment by gaymerbear84

If for some reason you mounted up like me and the egg drops and dissapears, dont fret, just wait like 30 secs and it will reappear for you to pick up again

Comment by DiscoDeath

No sooner had I grabbed the egg when a primalist attacked me. Luckily the egg was just sitting on the ground next to me after I killed the dude and I was able to pick it back up and make a run for it. They did Sendrax dirty though.

Comment by Peter4730

Grab the egg, but DO NOT GET ON YER MOUNT. If you mount, you'll lose the egg.
Grab the egg, the run on foot SOUTH. Follow the yellow diamond.
(You haven't got the egg, unless you can see it in yer hands.).

Comment by auryunderground

The NPC dialogue that takes place during this quest:

Sendrax says: Follow me! We'll charge the ritual site together.

Sendrax takes off running towards the ritual site. The player can talk to Sendrax after catching up:

A single egg remains. We have not failed yet.

If we can get that egg to Alexstrasza, she will know what to do. There must be a way to save the whelpling inside.

<Sendrax grits her teeth.>

Follow me. Together, we will rescue that last egg.

No matter the cost.

The player answers, "I am ready."

Sendrax says: Stay behind me. I will endure the conduits' flame while you grab the egg.

Sendrax yells: For the Life-Binder!
Sendrax yells: Now! Grab the egg! Get it to Alexstrasza!
Sendrax yells: For the Flight! For... the future...

The player runs with the egg, towards the Conservatory Outpost where Caretaker Azkra is waiting.

Caretaker Azkra says: Aspects! Is that a dragon egg? I will summon the majordomo at once!

Azkra uses her flare to summon the majordomo.

Majordomo Selistra says: What is the emergency, Azkra? Has the enemy--by the Life-Binder! Is that an egg?

*****
I have to say, I really really thought there would be some kind of follow-up text to this eventually... a mention of Sendrax anywhere would have at least felt like closure!

Even Ol' Blanchy got more of a fuss made over her, and all that horse ever did was inhale oats.

Comment by Elysabetha

Sendrax, no! I could have just use bubble...

Comment by CasHC

This quest is so stupid... literally any action drops the egg. Who thought that "press W and don't do anything else at all" was a good quest objective?

Next: For the Benefit of the Queen

Comment by sitecow09

If you're wondering why the dragons at the end are shouting in disbelief at seeing a dragon egg, a bit of lore catchup:

In order to stop the N'zoth-corrupted dragon aspect Deathwing from destroying the world, the dragonflights had to give up their semidivine power they received from the Titans. This had the unfortunate side-effect of making all living dragons unable to produce any offspring, so most dragons were now resigned to the fact that their race was now doomed (with the exception of a few radical bronze dragons who tried to change the timeline and would eventually become the Infinite Dragonflight). Fast forward 10 years in-universe, and all of a sudden, this one red dragon egg represents hope for the future, that the dragonflights may not be doomed to die out after all.

While the red dragons had plenty of eggs left by the time of Cataclysm, other flights like the blue and especially the black one had far fewer (you can see this at the Ruby Lifeshrine with the amount of eggs of each flight being tended to).

Comment by Taraezor

Don't dare do anything... thank god I had cauterize as a mage. Whew! Just do your best to avoid any agro / baddies as the distance to travel is actually really short. Good luck!

Comment by Taraezor

At this stage in the main story my so called "main" now has six pieces of viable gear, including the all important weapon. If like me you are catching up from neglect over the years then rest assured the questing is starting to become much easier. The gear rewards are level 246 or 259 which for me is a ton above about level 104 average.

Comment by Ehayen

"Stay behind me!"

*egg is in front of him*

Comment by onspace1

"Now! grab the egg!"

no ill just sit here watch you struggling to hold off the beams while i write this comment about how i enjoy watching you suffer

remember kids, unnecessary cruelty is okay if they're lizard people

Comment by Sesethi

I believe this by far, maybe losing to the Thrall being splitted apart into elements chain quest, is the worst quest design i've ever seen.

So this chain revolves around Cadet Sendrax, her eagerness in serving the flight, and her sacrifice trying to save the last red dragon eggs from a primalist attack.

The character itself, as annoying as she is, does a good job in showing her revolt into the primalist actions, as well as her pain in seeing whelplings we're forced to slay due to the primalist taint on the eggs.

Sendrax will point out for the conduits around the area as a major threat too in order to build a sense of aditional danger, but sadly, don't know if by design choice, passing through them is very harmless. Still they make a major role in this part of the quest, where she will find some eggs she deem safe to save and charge in and sacrifice herself against the conduits so we can escort the egg out to safety.

Reaching a safe area, the dragons will be overjoyed that an egg was found but anythign Sendrax related is completely forgot then, like this npc ever existed to begin with.

Very nice quest design Blizz

Comment by xenolithix

I had a feeling, as soon as the earlier NPC mentioned how Sendrax would be leading her own battalion soon if she kept at it, that it would end this way.

Goddamn it, Blizz.

Comment by EvilSupahFly

So, my wife and I both had problems with this quest the first time, because we couldn't pick up the egg. The solution we found was to abandon the quest and start over. Also, you have to run the egg on foot. You can't blink or use a mount or fight your pursuers. The upside is that you run at nearly double your normal speed, so you should be able to outrun the enemies.

Comment by omedon666

I main tanks usually, doing most of my questing as a tank, and made the mistake of doing this quest again as a squishy ranged DPS, expecting a reasonable, core-story-curated experience for some quick XP to top off some guild rep on an alt.

It was none of that. It didn't help that the quest path goes right by a rare spawn.

You're not doing it wrong, it really is that bad.
