There's a big Croc just outside of town at (57, 68). Talk to it and accept the ride.

Leads to Lightning Definitely Strike Twice and The Mist Isn't Listening.

Comment by zokira

When i started this quest Zepik said,"Too soon. You have awaken me too soon."

Similar to what Ragnaros say,"Too soon. You have awaken me too soon Executus, what is the meaning of this intrusion?"

Comment by warrigt

Unlike a normal mount, you surf atop the crocolisk's head as you progress to your location. Quite the right time to play some Beach Boys or what have.

Comment by 27627

As a Tauren, I traveled by surfing the crocolisk like a ride on a carpet.

More Zepik phrases:
"You should go let chickens out again and say Goregek did it. Never get old."
"Dajik tried to show me ways of hunt, but I do better when I do things my way."
"You ever fought big dragon or god or anything? Zepik like hearing stories."

Comment by drax99

Encountered a nasty bug with this Quest line. First quest with Goregek, the shackles never appeared in my inventory. I was baffled, but was able to drop the quest and restart it. on this part it went differently. While riding the Croc, I saw a Titanium node. I was frantic to get off and mine it, but couldnt do a thing. Soon as the ride was over, the horn, which I Had placed on my hotbar to make sure it was there, summoned him automatically. I turned int eh ride quest but didnt accept the next one. I flew back just in time to see somone else mining the ore... /sigh

However when i went back to the refuge... THE HORN WAS GONE! The High Shaman wont talk to me to give me another, and I cant drop the quest to restart because I have no quest in my log to drop!

So i wait for a GM.. who will prolly blame it on my UI...

Comment by conkier

you can easily dismount the croc by clicking the button in the bottom left corner of your screen..

Talk to Elder Harkek who is at the bonfire a few feet away from the High-Shaman

Riding the crocolisk was the coolest thing ever.

EVER.

Comment by WolfBlitzer

Note that although its awesome, you don't HAVE to ride the crocolisk to complete the quest. I dismounted along the way for a titanium node, and went on my own.

Comment by Ceriuswoode

The spot where the crock drops you off (46, 39) is just northwest of the tracks you need to investigate (at 40,43) for Dreadsaber Mastery: Stalking the Prey.

Comment by Royi

If you're a DK with Path of Frost activated

The croc will run on top of the river! :-P

Comment by 295668

This would be a real fun mount. A mount that doesnt dismount you in water. But maybe decrease speed by 50%, and go 100% on land. Plus with a saddle this thing would look tight.

Comment by 146819

Any mobs you happen to pass while riding the crocolisk will ignore you.
Don't mess with things that have big jaws.

Heres a funny video of quest http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=otRURWkvpHo&feature=channel_page

Comment by 311320

Comment by uluvit

Comment by 332548

Blizzard should make this the first sea mount we already have lound mounts and flying mounts this is the only one missing.

Comment by 98114

croc is at 57,68

Comment by Nari

Whats cooler than skate riding a croko? Dinging during riding of course!
See screenshots for more

Comment by evankimori

I think the hardest part of this quest is when you're a Miner and en-route you have to resist the urge to hope off and take those Saronite veins that just HAPPEN to spawn where the croc passes and have to do the ride all over again. :(

Comment by chop360

Give your croc path of frost to speed things up:)

Comment by AchilliezOfThral

if blizz ever makes swimming mounts (besides tcg turtle and rare drop) then this will prob be one

I was Good friends with the frefranzyy tribe, but now they attacks me? why? Can somone help me?

Comment by lovkyne

Interor Crocodile Aligator!

Comment by mekikya

so Im thinking blizz increased the amount of intro rep you get like they did the hordir like, because I just got 735 rep for Frenzy heart, of course I did have the extra guild bonus of 5% but still, thats not going to double it, i was waiting until i had the heart to grind both reps before i attempted this and now it seems to have paid off with extra rep.

Comment by 834210

They should make an Alligator mount lol.

Comment by 866052

RIGHT when you accept the quest, turn around and go the the campfire. Once you are at the campfire, turn left, and take that path. Go on and you will see little things eating bones. Walk past them, and there will be a croc. Talk to him and there ya go.

Comment by 867135

Is it possible that Zepik "shows up" somewhere?
Because, when I accepted this quest I didnt received anything and when I speak to NPC's that are supposed to give me horn, they just say "greetings"... any ideas what should I do?

Comment by 1438330

Captive Crocolisk is at 57.3, 68.5

Comment by meishatate

Currently bugged for me. The horn shows as being given to me in the chat log, but it is nowhere in my bags. This is with all addons disabled and after dropping and retaking quest and restarting the client. The Shaman has no Gossip option to give it to me. Every time I repick up the quest it shows in chat that I receive the item, but it's never anywhere that I can interact with it.

I noticed Zepik appeared next to me near where you mount the croc. But was lost by the time I flew or took Croc to turn in area. Workaround found after a while. Instead of taking croc or flying to the turn in the area, I got on a land mount and ran across the land to the turn in the spot. Gorok stayed with me and this let me turn it in without needing to use the horn.

Links

A Rough Ride

Ride the captive crocolisk to Mistwhisper Refuge and then speak to Zepik for further instructions.

If you lose Zepik's Hunting Horn, speak to Elder Harkek in Frenzyheart Hill.

	Captive Crocolisk slain (1)
	Travel to Mistwhisper Refuge. (1)

Description

Zepik is best hunter of the Frenzyheart. Zepik hunts big-tongues... ugly things near swamps that try to steal all stuff they can find.

Zepik going on long trek to break big-tongue shrine and try to scare them away. We no want big-tongues in this land anymore.

There a crocolisk chained on northeast side of hill, next to tree - go with Zepik and do what Zepik tell you.
