Relatively easy quest, especially for an escort quest. There are two groups of mobs that are spawned. The first is three Wildkin and the second is three trolls.

The most difficult part about this quest is that there are quite a few horde in the area where the quest ends so it's very easy to get ganked right before you are finished.

Commento di 71221

No one has pointed this out yet so just thought I would, the beacon your looking for is on the southernmost of the rock islands which are in the lake!

Commento di 80318

This Quest is very easy for priests.

The Robot is going to run along the road and then down to the shoreline
at 78.68, just follow him as a usual escort quest and take out any random mobs
who attacks him, then when the first encounter comes and he says
"anomaly detected.." just run ahead of him and you will see 3 Wildkin
walking towards you along the road. Just Psychic Scream them before they aggro
the robot and keep running, they will give up chase after awhile.
Rinse and repeat with the 3 trolls at the second encounter.

I guess this can be done by all classes in different ways as long as the robot don't get aggro, he is lvl42 and quite weak.

Commento di Vindiction

This quest gives 7850 xp as of patch 2.3.

im very mad after this quest, so im a 47 mage, its going great, the 3 owlbeast give me a bit of trouble but no biggie, so im sitting there drinking and it says i failed the quest, he was right in front of me, so im abandoning it right now :(

Commento di lcarnegie

its pretty tough the 2nd mob. 3 lvl 47 trolls. I couldn't do it on my own

Commento di shawarmakriger

Stupid quest. All my alts will be abandoning this.

Commento di Yeoman

Followup of this quest is An OOX of Your Own, but available only after completing all 3 separate quests of finding distress beacons in corresponding zones:

Find OOX-17/TN! (Tanaris)
Find OOX-09/HL! (The Hinterlands, this quest chain)
Find OOX-22/FE! (Feralas)

Commento di Kenaro

This quest can turn out to be annoying as heck for a prot pally, because you'll burn a lot of mana on the two groups of three if you fight, and the little bugger moves too fast for you to drink your mana back up before he gets out of range.

Commento di 151989

The chicken doesn't stop to fight the mobs so be careful. When I did this the first time I didn't notice he kept going so I failed the quest. But the odd thing was, when I did it the second time, the owlbeasts you run into first, didn't show up. It's like I'd killed them and they stayed dead. Anyway so I just took out the trolls and completed the quest. Simple stuff really.

Commento di 169039

I thought it was worth it to mention that you apparently can't heal the chicken. So when the mobs spawn (it gives you fair warning before they get too close), make sure you (or for you hunters and warlocks out there, your pets or minions) pull aggro before the chicken gets too close, otherwise it dies rather easily and you'll have to start over again.

Commento di 115672

This quest can be a little tricky, but I soloed it on my first try with a 48 druid. The chicken is really weak and after a few hits it'll die, but as a bear it was easy to hold aggro and take down the three mobs with a few HoTs. Watch out for adds - I got a wolf on me when I was dealing with the trolls, and that almost screwed it all up. And also, be careful if you're going to fear the mobs, if the chicken is attacking the feared mob it will follow it into the woods and probably get you more adds.

Commento di 181550

Make sure after you do this quest and turn it in that you talk to the guy for the other quest, because you just have to talk to him again for 10k xp

Commento di 204411

Just a hint for rogues: When doing this quest keep well ahead of the chicken (but not too far or you'll fail the quest) so that when he stops and says his warning you can quickly stealth, distract the mobs that spawn and sap one of them. This way you only ever have to fight two at a time.

Commento di 48310

They've either removed the spawns or this quest is bugged if you stealth, cause I stealth both times the chicken said the warning but the waves didn't spawn.

Commento di Wren

Normally the ambushes wouldn't be so bad but a level 48 stealthed wolf has decided to jump in everytime, making it more difficult than it needs to be. Ended up being a colossal waste of 2 superior health pots.

Tried to let the chicken walk past the ambushes, but just as he's walked through them and I think he's in the clear, they aggro him.

Commento di bumba

ITS ON A ROCK AT THE HEAD OF THE RIVER

Commento di flymolo21

I got ganked by 4 birds at once...I saw the 3 coming but there was 1 off on the side and it jumped in. Died twice, failed. Not going to bother to retry. I don't need the rewards and there are easier ways to get 7850 then a escort quest.

Commento di 243831

Helps to clear the sludges by the "village" before you accept this quest. Makes it so you can just run to the ambushes pretty much.

Commento di 155908

I failed at the very end during the second mob. The three trolls weren't really a problem, but the couple of wolfs who jumped in were. He died, then my pet died, then me as I was desperately running away. Either way, I abandoned the quest cause I didn’t know you could try again! Some @sshole who apparently had seen the whole thing but didn't decide to jump in and help told me if I failed it, it was gone for good. But some people are talking about doing it a second time and stuff, so I guess not? If I go back to the rock is he gonna be there for me to reaccept the quest, or do I have to start farming for another egg?

Today, about a month and 6 or 7 levels later, I saw TheR0nin's reply and decided to go back and redo the quest. Lol it's amazing how much of a difference those extra levels made... We blasted right through, no problems, and now I got myself a nice Gnomish Water Sinking Device to vend in Org. Thanks.

Commento di 428282

This quest must have been fixed, bcause when I did it the chicken stopped to fight any mob I aggroed, and even charged at some that I pulled at range.

Commento di CAPSLOCK

As of 3.2 this and other Rescue OOX- quests are now 3 times easier! With less than a quarter of the mobs encountered and an escort route cut to the road just south of where you begin.

Only one wave of 3 mobs is encountered, not including anything that pats nearby.

Commento di 95522

I just did this with my prot pally alt. I know I had two peices of hierloom gear but I swear this quest gave me about 15000 experiance. (no I'm not doing raf.) Wondering if anyone else has seen this?

Commento di ZaoTheMuse

I died but the chicken didn't die and I noticed that it didn't say quest failed so I ran back to my body as fast as I could and he was still fighting the Owlbeast. I killed them and then he transported away. Quest completed.

Commento di 526948

I soloed this quest as a Level 48 mage. You have to escort the chicken to a place where it is safe to fly off to Booty Bay. At the end, three owlbeats spawn. I was able to kill two before I died (thanks to my Polymorph). I quickly ran back and fought the last one. Then the chicken flew off, and quest complete.

Commento di nu4ev

Ok so im a tauren hunter and its pretty easy to me i send the pet... when i get there it killed them...

Commento di 513113

Mage 80 - doing this for the pet.
Picked up Rescue OOX-17/TN! ok - escorted it and all was well
but went to the other two in Feralas and Hinterlands and there are no quests to pick up but found the Becons.
What am I missing to complete this quest to obtain the pet?

Commento di ayrenn

As of patch 4.0.3a this quest still asks you to travel to Booty Bay for turning it in. This breaks with the whole new smooth quest flow that the rest of the zone (and most other zones) now has.

Overlooked or still intentionally somewhat inconvenient since it after all rewards a companion pet...?

Commento di DarkSyn

Started the quest, and as stated, there's only 1 group of owlkin that spawn (3). Easy fight, and the little fella takes off like a rocket. Turn-in is in Booty Bay. 2nd level, gnome in a hut.

Commento di DaCreature

This is picked up from the OOX-09/HL Distress Beacon.
It's dropped by many mobs in and around Hinterlands.

Commento di 231785

I got the quest straight from the chicken. I literally grinded mobs as an 85 for 6 hours. Got 35 stacks of silk cloth from the wildhammer alone.. something wasn't right I killed thousands of creatures so I went to where the quest starts and its there. On an island in the lake just north of Agol'Watha.

Commento di sandyra

For those trying to hunt down:

OOX-09/HL Distress Beacon from The Hinterlands (Personal stats: Killed some stalkers, some trolls, some owlbeasts (about 20 all told)... Then killed my first ooze at Skulk Rock, and it dropped)
OOX-17/TN Distress Beacon from Tanaris (Personal stats: Went into Zul'Farrak like all other posters recommend, killed some twenty or thirty trolls and scarabs, and it dropped from one of the troll corpses)
OOX-22/FE Distress Beacon from Feralas (Personal stats: As recommended by many other posters, Feral Scar Yetis - dropped on my first kill)

Only available if you have not already completed the quest.
Yes these still drop in Mists of Pandaria.
Yes it can drop off ANY mob in the respective zone, however OOX-22/FE Distress Beacon has the highest drop rate from Feral Scar Yeti IF you haven't already done the quest.
It WILL eventually drop - some days RNG is your best friend, other days you want to repeatedly punch a kitten (or other obscenely fluffy creature) just to illustrate how cruel the universe can be.
The command to check if you have completed ANY of the distress beacon quests is here (special thanks to MrsSushi for locating the updated version of this as of 5.0.3):

/run local z={"Tanaris","Hinterlands","Feralas"}for k,v in pairs({{351,648},{485,836},{25475,25476}})do print(z)for i,q in pairs(v)do print(" #"..i,"\124Hquest:"..q.."\124h\124h" ,IsQuestFlaggedCompleted(q)and COMPLETE or INCOMPLETE)end end

You will see lines of dialogue that look like this:
Tanaris
#1 Complete
#2 Complete
Hinterlands
#1 Complete
#2 Complete
Feralas
#1 Incomplete
#2 Incomplete
After completing all three escorts, you can then acquire the quest An OOX of Your Own and get your Mechanical Chicken.

Happy hunting!

Commento di travisdead1

The distress beacon that starts this quest drops off of any mob in the Hinterlands. I just farmed 2 1/2 hours before it dropped. For me if fell off a Revantusk Hexxer. But It will drop off anything...eventually.

I'm trying to get the mechanical chicken pet that is a reward for doing all 3 of these escort quests, for the Petting Zoo achievement. If you are also, an addon called "Collect Me" will display all the pets you DON'T have, and where/how to get them. an addon called EveryQuest will show all the quests that you haven't completed in each area, if the pet is a quest reward.

Commento di Thottbot

Everything went fine at first. Killed couple of oozes on the way, evaded 3 owlbeast, but then while fighting a wolf, 3 trolls appeared and stupid chicken decided to fight them as well. Almost died, ran away. Healed myself, went out looking for chicken - not anywhere :o\ Checked quest log - didn't fail. Where the heck could it go?

Commento di Thottbot

It's awkward this - there seem to be 2 main encounters en route with the boird. You can tell this because the chicken seems to pause, come out with a "threat detected" comment and then the mobs appear.

I found it helped to try to clear the route first (on my second, third, etc attempts). The stealthed wolves just make it really difficult right at the end, and look out for that massive turtle as well...

There are two ways you may be able to progress this quest - 1) go back to where you found the bird in the first place, on his little island. He may be back there and ready to roll again. If that's not the case, abandon the quest in your quest log, then the big ! will return and you can re-start the escort quest.

Good luck, I struggled to solo it at lvl 53 as hunter with pet and engineering toys...

Commento di Thottbot

Finish it with a warrior and a druid w/o any pain. All of us got quest credit once the chicken reach it's ending point.

I tried to solo it from lvl 48 - 50 pally. Died too many times coz 2 encounter is not easy at all, and there are many ooze and wolf adds. Clear it before starting the quest doesn't work for me coz they respawned.

Even you can handle mobs, there are usually horde on your route so be very careful. Ganked by lvl 60 horde few times.

Commento di Thottbot

Did the quest, it said I completed it and everything, chicken vanished, so I thought I was done. I went to Booty Bay like the quest says to talk to Oglethorpe and he has no question mark above his head or anything... Anyone have this provlem too?

47 hunter

EDIT: Now it says I failed. lol.

Commento di Thottbot

Ehh.. this was really no problem for me finish it off with a 47 shaman, the owlbeast attack went fine, and i was lucky since i didnt meet any of the stalkers.. but when the trolls came, i died:D but the chicken went on, and when i respawned, he was attacking a wolf, so i killed the wolf and finished the quest, not really a big problem

Commento di Thottbot

Soloed as a lvl 50 UD Mage. The robot is on the biggest island on the lake. In the first wave I heard the robot saying "danger!" or something and I started to move forward. Then I saw 3 owlbeasts and tried to trick them off the road. It worked, I fled and they stopped chasing me. Then I went back and found the robot walking on the road. Same thing on the second wave. It was kinda easy but I dont think that it should be able to do like that. :P

Just solo'ed this quest first try. No problems. Freezing trap is a useful, but unnecessary ability for this quest. Anyways, extremely easy quest. Rewards make for good disenchanting materials.

Commento di Thottbot

the chicken will not follow me neither will it move from its position id done escort quests before and never had a problem. anyone know whats wrong?

Commento di Thottbot

46 Warrior here. Soloed it with some difficulties, though, I did make it through without dying. First group of three owls hit me, i killed one, feared the other two, bandaged, killed the other two (cutting it quite close as well). Dazing the mobs then running to bandage helps a little bit, even if the chicken draws the aggro. The last three trolls I fought were no problem. Just pop retaliation and the rest is history. Don't forget about your pots, or maybe some food =P

Commento di Thottbot

what lvls are the trolls? it would help to kno wha lvl they are. so i f anyone could tell me i would aprreiciate it.....thx = D

Commento di Thottbot

I had the same problem as several of the above posts.... I died doing the quest and was told the quest failed. The chicken wasn't on the rock after rezing. I waited around and after about 10 minutes, the chicken respawned on the rock. So give it some time to respawn after failing the quest.

Commento di Thottbot

I'm a 46 warrior and I easily soloed this without dieing once. All I did was use demorilizing shout and then just hacked away. On the group of lvl 48's that attack just use retalliation. Very easy quest.

Commento di Thottbot

This was the easiest damned escort EVER!

I had seen the homing robot a few times so knew where to await its re-pop. Waited and grabbed him the second it spawned from the previous questor.

There was one ooze that followed immediately, but the robot ignored and kept running so i didn't attack it either.

A savage owlbeast saw us on the road just north of jinthal'alor but same story, it followed for a while but neither robot nor i attacked so it buggered off after a short chase.

The robot only twice said "CLUCK! Sensors detect spatial anomaly -- danger iminent! CLUCK!" but both times no mobs spawned to give me a hard time.

I can only assume that I had such an easy time of it because someone had only just run the route and had cleared the way, and the two mobs that should have popped on our way through were not ready to. I did the whole trip stealthed, but suspect this would have had no bearing on the situation.

My suggestion: Wait for someone else to do it. Once the bot re-pops, take the quest on straight away and you should be home free...

Commento di Thottbot

there are 2 add sets of 3. watch out for aggro. i had to do it 4 times as a 49 shaman because if the robot gets attacked too much you fail. once you fail you can go back to where you find the robot to restart. this would be better to do either at a higher level or with a group.

Commento di Thottbot

I know it was probably a little easier since I was 52, but all I did, when the group of mobs appeared, was to have the void agro them (target and attack each mob), cover them in dots and pick away at them. After the mob was over, ran ahead to sit for a drink and a bite to eat, healed void and I was good. At one point, had the 3 trolls and two stealthed wolfs on me. Still, no problem.

Commento di Thottbot

Just soloed this quest as a lvl 45 mage. It took me 3 tries. First two i got another add while fighting the amubushers and the chicken got killed be4 i could finish 2 of them.

On the third try i figured out a easier method:
Just jump on your mount and whenever the chicken stops and says smth about danger, go ahead of her and get the aggro from the 3 ambushers.
Then take them away from chicken and start doing circles. When u see the chicken get past the point where the mobs spawned, just run and break aggro.

Repeat for second ambush.

Commento di Thottbot

These quests come from drops. I got mine from a Silvermane wolf!

Commento di Thottbot

Solo'd as a 51 warrior with no pots with me.
Got to admit I was down to 10% at one time as that damn chicken pulled a lot of mobs this run. But completely doable for a 51 warrior - but a pot would had been nice :)

Commento di Thottbot

REally the worst you're facing here is 3 47's which is easy, especially for the 5k xp I got.

Commento di Thottbot

for me it was a set of 3 Marauding Owlbeasts, at the Y in the road, and then at the steps I 'think' it was some Trolls, but I am not sure because I lost sight of him, then it said Failed...

Commento di Thottbot

This quest is pretty easy, just follow the chicken and defend it. The only problem is the horde that think it's funny to wait until you are right at the end of the quest to kill you =\, which happened to me 3 times.

Commento di Thottbot

I solo'd it as a 49 hunter w/o breaking a sweat

Commento di Thottbot

i soloed this as a lvl 44 marks hunter not that hard to do if you have good gear and pet. (i have 8 rares and king banglesh as a pet)

Commento di Thottbot

Does the chicken have taunt or something? I was killing the owlbeasties when the chicken kept running, met a wolf, it took me a while to kill the beasties and i was rather oom afterwards, then i go to chicken, wolf is still like 90% hp, i deathcoil it, then shadowbolt (totally oom now) for about 50% of wolf HPs, it STILL keeps attacking the chicken, i wand the wolf almost to death before it kills the chicken..

Epic tank aggro plz i want to level that chicked to 70 and use as raidtank..

Commento di Thottbot

Was lvl 43 when doing this. Warlock, with imp pet :). Managed to go as far as the 3 Trolls, then it I was struck down due that I had 50% life and mana before the battle begun.

I did this quest alone at 50 level, hunter. It was easy as could be, only used one potion.

Commento di Thottbot

I just soloed at lvl 47 Warlock, I died once when the 3 trolls appeared but the second time no trolls and I could do it just fine.

Good Luck

Commento di Thottbot

if you find and rescue all three OOX chickens you can talk to the quest ender and get the chicken for a pet

Commento di Thottbot

Because that is the point of a quest, sometimes you gotta work for something and not have it hand you an easy solo exp. Another word for it would be..... CHALLANGE!

Commento di Thottbot

Solo'd easy as a 44 affliction warlock
Owlbeasts i just had blueberry tank and i would throw all i had on them. Now the 3 47 trolls were tougher I had to use Howl of Terror and ultimately in the end my mana was dead and so was my pets and out of no where came a wolf...i soulstoned and died and the chicken was still fighting the wolf so i rezzed and killed the wolf and then walked to the shore and finished the quest :D

.....CLUCK!

Well, I'm standing right now on the top of the island and there's nothing here... =/

Commento di Thottbot

I think this is luck of the draw. For me the chicken agroed 2 slime mobs up the first hill, then 2 wolves, then 3 owls, then 3 trolls and a wolf together, needless to say it didnt go well.

Commento di Thottbot

Just finished as lvl 45 frost mage. Had to use a few potions, but that is why I bought them.

Step 1 - Go up the road and clear the slimes by Algo'watha. This allowed us to get to the 3 owlbears (lvl 47).

Step 2 - I drank lesser stoneshield potion (already had potion of greater armor, scroll of protection 2, arcane elixir, ice armor, and arcane intellect). Next cast ice barrier, then frost nova, then blizzard, then cone of cold, then arcane explosion - needed to take my mana jade but killed them all.

Step 3 - After following a bit, 3 trolls (lvl 47). Same basic scenario except no potion of lesser stoneshield - when I was getting low had save frost nova, hit it and then evocation - a couple of arcane explosions and we are good.

Step 4 - Wolf, mana mostly back by now so no problem - ice barrier and cone of cold.

Step 5 -- At beach and quest complete. I died the first time I tried this quest then just worked out above plan and it went very smoothly. Health got a bit low on the trolls and was lucky with only a few resists. I do have good gear (I think), but I enjoyed the challenge.

Hope this helps

Anyone else had this recently?

Any way around?

Found him but he doesnt move, got any ideas on what to do

Commento di Allakhazam

I know this is outdated but figured I would put it in here anyways for those who have had problems. As of today all 3 quest are working. i did each one of them It takes approx 10 minutes per quest and is pretty easy xp. but they are up and working

Commento di Allakhazam

you need to get the matching beacon to start the quest (random drop from local mobs)

it really helps . .. and you can't heal the chicken . . . maybe if engineering can fix it but I dont have an engineer yet

you get 2-3 scripted encounters + any random mobs that get in your way.

there's a triple owlkin, which is managable but sometimes roving wolves or other owlkin patrolling run into you (I was using a balance spec druid, 00mkin, and went to bear).

that's managable if you're 50 or so (with mail armor or bear / warrior) to tank.

as soon as you get into the section of hinterlands where the stealth wolves, the whole ball game changes . . . Sometimes you can have 4-5 wolves crossing the same patrol paths and the chicken just happens to at their crossroads and you get 3 wolves.

there's a scripted section where you get 3 trolls that jump you. This part can be easy street or hard as f@#%! .

after the troll patrol script part, you follow the chix down the path , and finish.

Lucky, you get only the 3 troll patrol. can tank no issues at 50.

Unlucky you get 3 troll patrol, 3 stealth wolves, and 2 other troll patrols, bodies are going to drop and one of them is your teams. (but the grave yard is close so if you're fast and chix was nearly full hp, you can get back in time to draw aggro, remember to heal yourself first)

Uber unlucky, you 3 troll patrol, 2 stealth wolves, 1 extra troll patrol, and a horde pk'in your chicken. -> epic fail

notes:

escorting . . . some people prefer to let the chicken go ahead and engage and then fight the mob to get aggro off the chicken. I've seen some mobs pass it up where I thought the chicken would draw it or other mobs I didn't think were in range but their patrol wound up drawing them.

The other way is you figure out the path of the chicken (usually for ppl doing this who completed) or run ahead and clear out mobs.

I use both methods, I let the chicken lead until where the stealth wolves show up, then I take lead and kill off the stealth wolves ahead of the chickin

and then the kiting method. You run around drawing the mobs, and timing so they get tired of chasing you and disengage to run back to their original spot as the chicken comes up. You need timing. Its good if you like running around and/or have some way to speed yourself up (crusader / epic mount). But watch out for the chicken.

The kiting trick can be done with druid travel (easier as you can attack however slowly, to keep mob on ya) or mount (you run ahead and kite mobs n let them disengage)

but it epic fails (if you're occupied) when you come to the stealth wolf part, and you find two to three stealth wolves bomb the chicken long enough to have a 3rd or 4th one . . . while you're kiting away. I didn't want to waste my time since I was lvl 50 and realized fighting my way was more fun (and I get giant eggs an lewts)

notes: watch out for Horde griefers . . . often times they are patrolling here for specific drops, and they can pk the chicken. the funniest was a belf mob that was raiding the helf lodge for some machinima movie (they were all the same guild and i found out via the guilds )website)

Commento di Allakhazam

This quest is Easy... even a lvl 40 could do it... if you could only pick it up at that lvl. Here's the trick: Just mount up. Run just ahead of the chicken. Aggro everything that comes at you before the chicken does and just run back and forth kiting the mobs behind you. Be careful not to get too far from the chicken or you fail the quest. The mobs in the area all run slow, so it's easy to stay ahead of them. Even the scripted encounters can be handled this way. Eventually the mobs will lose interest and reset to their starting position, but by then the chicken is beyond them. I did this quest on the first try using this technique and didn't have to kill a single mob. The Finding OOX in Tanaris can be done the same way. I haven't tried this method for the one in Feralas.

This quest is obtained from the OOX-09/HL Distress Beacon.

There are three and they drop off random mobs in Hinterlands, Feralas and Tanaris.

All three just simply ask you to escort the OOX to a certain location. If you complete all three, then you get bonus experience and a Mechanical Chicken.

Recently there have been issues with the quest, and Blizzard is aware of this and fixing it.

MY GOD!
Was at the end of Hinterlands, right before where you see the chicken of.. and a @#$%^&* of a spriest fears me too far away from the chicken. My wrath was camping him untill he cried holy water, but that doesnt really concern what im gonna ask.

Is it possible to do this again without another one of em quest starters?

This is the WORST, HARDEST ESCORT QUEST EVER. All the people claiming it's easy are full of crap. It has several problems:

1) No matter how low on health or mana you are, or how far behind the chicken you are, the chicken absolutely will not stop or slow down, ever, except to fight something.
2) If the chicken gets too far ahead of you, it will spontaneously die and you will fail
3) If you or your pet pull a mob, the chicken will not help you. It will just stupidly surge ahead to pull even more mobs.
4) Clearing the path ahead of time, like you can do with the escort quest in Swamp of Sorrows, is not possible.
5) The fight against the three trolls at the end is borderline unwinnable at-level. I've tested this. I set my voidwalker to passive and waited for the trolls to spawn. Then, I cast Howl of Terror to send them running. The chicken picked one to attack, and I started dotting it up and set my voidwalker to attack it. Once I had done that, the chicken changed its mind and started attacking a different troll, breaking its fear! This chicken is not suicidally stupid. It is TRYING to get itself and you killed. It is TRYING to ensure that you cannot CC and will be fighting as many mobs as possible at once, and it is brilliant at that task.

I've had pretty awful luck with these rubber chicken quests but thought maybe it was time for another shot. As expected, he headed right for the slimes and aggroed three. Not a big problem but the chicken had to stray way off the right route to annoy those slimes. What's that all about? Death wish? Then we made it all the way to 59 51 on the road without incident when the expected three level 46 owlbeasts materialized out of nowhere. No problem; my cat tagged all three of them so they wouldn't hurt the chicken and we chopped them up pretty easily. Halfway through, the chicken died. How? Turns out there was a stealthed level 48 Silvermane Stalker by the side of the road that was hidden by all the feathers flying off the owlbeasts. I should have seen him as I had Track Beasts turned on. Just bad luck. At least it's consistent. That will be the last rubber chicken ever. No more. I promise.

Commento di Henderman

As a hunter if the chicken doesn't get aggro and keeps running, you can set your pet on each group of mobs. When your pet has aggro, feign death if you need to and run after the chicken. When you get far enough away from the mobs and your pet, your pet will dismiss itself. You can then call your pet and continue on your way having lost aggro and leaving the mobs behind.

Commento di Rainalo

I tried doing the quest but everytime I start it and the chicken walks into the water it disappears and I fail the quest? Help?

Commento di borcar

I did the first of these in Feralas at level and it was a pain. Decided to save the rest for later and came back at 60 piece of cake and so much less stressful.

One thing of note is the trolls at the end are a breeze at 60 but they are humanoid and run near death. The chicken will follow them so you have to root or keep their attention because the other fun part is they can run right into the elites at the bottom of the troll city there. This would be hell if you were at actual quest level without a group.

Escort OOX-09/HL to safety, then report to Oglethorpe Obnoticus in Booty Bay.

	Escort OOX-09/HL to safety (1)

Descrizione

The gnome's voice crackles once again from the robot:

"I need to move OOX-09/HL to an open, safe place so it can begin a lengthy take-off procedure. It has built-in cloaking, but I need time on my end to make it operational again. Escort the robot from its current location to, let's say, some big rocks that obscure visibility! That should be a perfect place, and long enough, to get things online!"

"Escort it safely and then come talk to me in Booty Bay! Oglethorpe Obnoticus - out!"
