Best farmed east of Tuurem.

No need to rush with this quest, the Worgs are all over Terrorkar, just kill them as you are taking care of more important quests.

I actually found mine about 64,48 in that little valley area next to bonechewer, depends on the time you play though

Comment by 4513

I found a decent amount of them around 39,35. Drop rate is pretty bad though, so just do you quests in Terokkar Forest and kill then as you stumble upon them.

A lot of wolves are indeed located at the Bonechewer Ruins (not inside, but north of the zone). If you are here to kill the wolves, it would be smart to also pick up the quest "Unruly Neighbors" (http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=9998) for the Warped Peons there.

Comment by Henrik

Drop rate is extremely poor

Comment by 22964

True, outside of Bonechewer Ruins is a huge count of wolves. (64,50)

Comment by 33824

i did this while killing the warp stalkers.. drop rate was not bad for me... 1 of 3 i would say

Comment by Agrithnaar

I don't believe I recieved any rep gain from completing this...

Comment by 40642

Drop rate is somewhere between non-existant and ridiculous, leaning towards ridiculous, since every worg you find has a large fluffy tail which somehow seems to disappear at the moment you deal the killing blow. Very odd.

Comment by 30299

When I completed this quest I did not gain any reputation with any of the factions.

Comment by 26336

Its amazing how few wolves in Terrokar have tails. You'd swear it looks like they all have one, but once the kill is done, lo and behold, no tail. Reminds me of those mutant humans in Hillsbrad that have no skulls....

Comment by silentshott

i herd the drop rate was bad, but what i did was gte my 1st 6 then had ti log for a while then came back and got the other 6 fast, didnt take em to long.

Comment by dongjinkim

The normal Timber Worgs seem to drop the tails a lot more often than the Timber Worg Alphas.
You can find the normal worgs just north of Stonebreaker Hold.

Comment by 85518

Right near Private Weeks at 40,34 there's a bunch

Comment by 128932

If you do these at 33,39 right near Veil Skith...they drop off the Timber Worg Alpha with regularity. Got all mine in 15 to 20 minutes. Just make sure you go after the Alphas in this area and you won't have a bad drop rate at all.

Comment by 110798

Like in veryother zone that has wolves there are SPiders in same spot. Dont know why blizzard did this but whenever u see a wolf a spider is near. same other way around.

I Suggest going for Timber Worg Alphas on this quest, better drop rate.

Comment by Phish

For those of you without Coodinate addons,just head north of the Hold and you'll find them.Soloed this as a 64 holy priest.Not alot of trouble.Although the drop rate wasen't that great.
Watch out for Warped Stalkers.

Comment by 115685

Fight the level 64 worgs, they seem to have a higher drop rate. They are around 56, 36.

While you are in this area, you can also pick up these other quests beforehand:

Thin as Flock
Olemba Seeds
Magical Disturbances

Good luck and happy questing.

See yaz bye.

Comment by 40769

High droprate at 56,36

Comment by buffbloom

this quest felt like it took forever. Drop rate was 1/6

Comment by 28485

Amazingly low drop rate atm, I've killed over 40 of these TAWs and had three whole tales drop. My question is who they heck is cropping all the worg's tails????

Comment by 111305

the ower the drop rate the better for this quest. Pick it up and the rest and just kill them as u go through the rest of the quests. You will eventually get them all without knowing it.

Comment by 143590

Y'know, I could understand the flaky drop rates if you were searching for something peculiar.. such as a certain type of wolf.. but a low drop rate for something that is intrinsic to the species as a whole..such as a tail... is ridiculous. That's like saying "Oh...you've killed the giant two-headed ogre...but you can't find his heads in order to decapitate them and return them for the quest..." HOW do you MISS something like that?? Whomever designs the quests and/or loot subroutines needs to be dragged out into the middle of the street and beat profusely about the head and shoulders with wolf tails..

Comment by 180537

1 hour 12 tail

Comment by 177043

To be 100% Honest...this quest was NOT worth the reward and or experience.

Comment by 53205

1 hour.. 7 tails.. 46 Bloody Fangs.

How about making a necklace out of Bloody Fangs instead. Just think of how much terror you'll instill in your enemies.

Comment by 169039

I think I might have killed more Warped Stalkers than I did Timber Wargs, and it still took me over an hour to get all of the tails. This quest is pretty nice for experience grinding, but for those of you with a low threshold for patience I'm going to warn you, be prepared to be at it for a while. I'm sure you'll hear stories of people who finished the quest in ten minutes or less, but those of us who were less fortunate can vouch for the seemingly endless hours of irritation it caused.

Comment by 107914

This quest is going much better when you're listening to Bob Marley with Three little birds

Comment by h4rlot

Yeah, the reputation rewards listed on this are completely wrong. I just turned in and gained no rep whatsoever with any faction. If you're after reputation, don't waste your time with this quest.

Comment by Soundslikefail

I wasn't looking forward to do this quest because of all the comments about terrible drop rate, but I wanted the helmet so I just startet doing it along with the Olemba Seed q, Poen q and Warp Stalker q. I was suprised because the drop rate was really good. I don't know how it works, but I guess it's random. They dropped from almost every wolf I killed. :-)

Comment by 27109

As stated before, the Worgs are all over Terrokkar. This quest can be done easily while looking for http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=9992 , http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=10026 and http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=9998. The Drop rate on the tails was decent enough where boths quests can be finished around the same time.

Hope this helps. Good luck :)

Comment by 486152

I think drop rate is lvl dependant. At 67 I did this in conjunction with the Olemba seed quest. Needless to say I got all 30 seeds before I even had half of the tails and the seeds aren't a particularly quick gather. Once I hit 68 though the tails miraculously turned into a much more worthwhile drop rate. If you're on this quest at 67 please test and confirm this theory.

Comment by shadey81

how can the drop rate not be 100%, every worg has a tail, you can see it...

Comment by Systex

Terrible quest, like most quests in Terrokar Forest, end of story.
Drop rate seems like 10% since I've killed 8 worgs in a row and only 1 of them dropped a tail, just leave this quest in your quest log and continue with other quests, while you're doing other quests, kill some worgs here and there.

Comment by 771700

I just want my wolf mask...its Cata, lower the drop rate already blizz...

Comment by yarko

After the old world revamp, now the worst quest in the game.

Comment by hotcore

Horrible quest. The drop rate is horrible and it makes me wonder why not all of them have tails...very bizarre

Links

Timber Worg Tails

Bertelm at the Allerian Stronghold wants you to bring him 12 Timber Worg Tails. The tails can come from either Timber Worgs or Timber Worg Alphas.

	Timber Worg Tail (12)

Description

Have you come across the timber worgs in your travels? I've had the opportunity to observe them while mapping some of the northern reaches of the forest. I wouldn't recommend getting close to them unless you're prepared for combat.

They have no fear of us and won't hesitate to defend their territory.

It's fitting that such a creature would have a magnificent tail. I've been trying to collect enough of them to trim a new cloak, but the worgs have a habit of evading my snares. Will you help?
