The Mosshoof Coursers who drop these, are in the northern and southern region of Azshara. Basically just run north from where Ogtinc gives you the quest.

Kommentar von powdahound

Took me about an hour to get the two (lvl 51). Very helpful to bring a friend as the mobs in this zone are very close together!

Kommentar von 8134

For this and the Wave Trasher quest after, go for the higher level mobs. In the case of these, the coursers, focus exclusively on the level 53 coursers. The levels of the coursers are not evenly dispersed. The stretch extending northwest from the blue dragons contains primarily level 52 coursers. You find more concentrated level 53 coursers by heading east or northeast, but watch out for the giants. It will still take a long time, but more like 30 minutes instead of two hours.

Kommentar von 8159

The antlers are indeed a very low drop rate but there are about 3 different places to find them. So if you are having problems with the drop rate I suggest moving to a different place and starting to look there. Also don't let the drop rate discourage you from the quest becuase the trinket you can get is an amazing help for any hunter. I am talking about the devilsaur eye. I still use it on my 60 hunter. It helps and after the antlers isn't to hard to get.

Kommentar von 9913

I've seen widely differing opinions about this quest. And for my self and the 1 hunter I helped, a big difference in how it played out. I killed nearly 100 mosshoof coursers to get the 2 perfect antlers, lucky for me I skin. 2 days later I helped a friend and he got 2 with 8 kills. So just be patient and make sure you're killing the right coursers, there are others coursers besides the mosshoof in the area.

Kommentar von 1437

I killed 3 total...no joke. Got the drop on my 1st and 3rd kills. I guess I was just lucky. Good luck to the rest of you!

Kommentar von 11082

just NE from questgiver.. lvl52 droprate ~15-20% with me.. not a single 53 dropped that .. 30 minutes

Kommentar von 32878

lawl, 3 mobs took me less than 2 minutes + travel time

Kommentar von 30132

51.24 between lvl 50 - 53

don't forgot hunter's you can turn track bests on .... Good luck hunter's

Kommentar von BoJlk

Really lond quest.
5% drop rate i wouldn't do it in any other case if it wasn't for the Hunter's quest.

The overall Quests rewards are the best for hunters.

Pack some petiance and cofee.

*edit
Exactly 27 lvl 53 and 28 lvl 52 killed.

Kommentar von breakfast

lol took me less than 10 minutes..

Kommentar von 11563

I found a lot of them at 62,18, and no hippogryphs around either.

Kommentar von 31800

62,18 was right on. Not that there WEREN'T hippogryphs around, but there pretty good numbers of Mosshoofs. I got my first set of Perfects off a 52 in about the 7th or 8th kill. The second set took another 20-30 kills! But again off a 52. I was killing nothing but 52's and 53's for them. I submitted a screenie of the Mosshoof. Enjoy.

Kommentar von badget

hehe. it only took me about 10 min.

Kommentar von alphamale

Whoever finishes this in less than 10 minutes consider yourself VERY lucky. For everyone else don't expect this quest to be easy because it's not. I have killed 50+ Mosshoof Coursers and have only received ONE perfect antler. Been going at it for almost an hour now. 20K Experience from this crap....
Really horrible quest.

EDIT: Just finished. 76 Mosshoof Coursers, 30x Experience, 1 Hour and 40 Minutes Later.

Kommentar von 47355

haha, did it in 20 mins.

Kommentar von 53319

This quest took me about half an hour, killed about 10 coursers and got my first antler, and then weaved in and out of the hippogryphs and about 10 more kills later I got the second antler.

This quest isn't bad if you're a skinner =)

Kommentar von 50832

killed about 14 of these guys and got both yay! I never get lucky :D

Kommentar von 50369

took me 3 kills to get 2 pieces ... probably lucky

Kommentar von 56613

50,28 killed 4 mobs and got 2 antlers.

Kommentar von 61527

well i tell u this i was with a friend doing this quest and we killed like 30 and none of them dropped the antlers but as soon as my friend left igot 1 and then killed like 10 more to get the other so best bet is to go solo

Kommentar von miakeru

Here's what needs to be done to increase your odds of getting the drops. First, read the quest. Yeah, I know you did the first time but read it again. See the part where he says that the antlers are damaged when the courser battles? This means you need to use your Hunter skills to keep the courser from attacking.

Use your traps and stuns to keep the courser moving as slow as possible. Turn off growl on your pet so he doesn't steal the aggro. Start off by marking the courser, hitting it with Serpent Sting then immediately Concussive Shot it. Lay down a Frost Trap and ensure it runs through it. Keep turning around (running forward is faster than backward!) to run, then turn back to shoot and run. Lay more traps and use Concussive Shots when you get the chance.

I farmed these guys for about an hour with no drops before I re-read the quest and noticed that tid-bit. Doing my suggestion above provided me with two drops. One on each try.

Coincidence? I think not.

Kommentar von 62810

thank you miakeru, your advice rocked, took two coursers down using the ranged method and antlers dropped off both. Use his method. Again thank you!

Kommentar von 67734

I got it in 3 kills! took like 5 mins. thanks for the advise about not letting them fight.

Kommentar von 62335

im not sure about the 5% drop rate i killed about 5 and found them but i might have just gotten lucky

Kommentar von 67448

killed 3, first dropped nothing the next two dropped the two I needed, drop rate must've gone up. thxs for the coords. the majority were in 51.24

Kommentar von 72394

it tag me only 10 min

Kommentar von 72727

O my god i've been at this for 2 hours now have killed at least 100 of these things and still only 1 perfect antler. Drop rate is awful...any ideas how to make this go quicker?

Kommentar von claudiomiguel

I found 7 at

Kommentar von 66295

I killed 4, my second and fourth dropped the antlers.

And i found these Mosshoof Courser to be very plentiful in the southern region.

Good Luck :)

Kommentar von 77197

piece of cake - just did this on my hunter, went to 50,31 and killed 2 of them, got my drops and left.

not sure why everyone's saying it took forever...

Kommentar von 53628

drop rate sucks. its about 5%. i was at 50/31

Kommentar von 72650

At 57.21 I found about 12 of the things and killed 4 and got the drops, not sure if this is a better place because i had only killed 3 in other places. Hope this Helps. Rejected (Dalaran Server)

Kommentar von 89608

I tried it both ways. It did not seem to make a difference of how I attacked. I probably killed 15 total to get 2 perfect antlers.

Kommentar von 75221

I found a huge concentration of these animals between 54.22 and 59.18. Took me about 1hr and a half to get mine.

Kommentar von inmediasres

I recommend route between points (35,62) and (42,72). Until you make one run, you can turn back, as they have respawned

Kommentar von Jidor

Wow. I killed 42 of these, my first antler dropped. Then, I killed a 43rd and my second antler dropped. Sometimes, I hate this game so much.
6% drop rate says they should drop every 16 kills. I guess I gave some other lucky Hunter a happy night.

Kommentar von PizzaMan

There are lots of coursers in the area between the Legash Encampment (satyr camp) and Thalassian Base Camp (blood elves).

Be prepared to kill for a while. I finally got the first antler on the 29th kill and the second one four kills later.

Kommentar von 10436

Not sure about you guys but it took me no more than 10 mins to get my 2 antlers. I also killed some white rare elite gryph that was cruising by..dropped a junky green plate belt :/

Kommentar von Assitaca

OMG GUYS. I USED LIKE 2000k AROWS FOR THIS QUEST AND IT TOOK ME LIKE 2:30 HOURES TO DO IT. WHEN I GOT MY FIRTS ANTLER I WAS SO HAPPY THAT I JUMPED UP AND STARTED DANCING.

Kommentar von 87076

54.18 lot of them on 1 spot Lvl 52-53 easy quest for BM Hunter

Kommentar von 40639

Killed six and finished! First one and sixth one dropped the perfect antlers. Coords were 36,70

Kommentar von 93614

Just to the south of the Legash Encampment, you can find a wide source of Mosshoofs. However, you will also find a lot of Thunderhead Skystormers. However, I can confirm that if you kill Thunderhead Skystormers, more Mosshoofs will spawn. They are fairly easy to kill, too -- I'm level 50 and not having a problem.

Kommentar von 93614

Also, be sure to have Beast Tracking up. With the 2.3 changes, they will now show as a yellow dot on your screen among the several red.

Kommentar von 105371

I´m not really sure if this is anymore worth the fuss after 2.3, you can get into outland in no time and replace the trinket you would get from this.

Of course, why not try your luck while being in Azshara and kill a few mosshoofs, as I did.

Kommentar von 103439

Terrible odds getting any for me, but them being skinnable and all, I got made a killing in AH selling their leather, and leveled to 55 in the process. I'd do the quest when you are nice and rested, more exp that way, just good for the frustration this quest generates, btw, for me, It took about 50 of them then I got both of them consecutively...

Kommentar von 101254

worst drop rate ever!

Kommentar von 100740

Got 1st one after 17th kill, and 2nd one after 31st kill. This is my third attempt to complete this quest. Good luck!

Kommentar von tendrax

So annoyed right now. I've checked ALL of the coords listed here, and every single one turns up MAYBE two of them, if I'm lucky. Damn the shitty drop rate, I can't even find the mobs!

I think I must have been int he wake of another hunter or something...

Kommentar von 110305

The drop rate is like 6% but u have 2 kill like 100 of them just 2 get 2!!!

Kommentar von 110386

u know what i dont care what u guys say because i have been killing them for 2 days now and i only get the broken one, i hate this stupid quest

Kommentar von 66954

HAHAHA! somehow got extremely lucky, got one on my first kill, got the second on my third kill.

Kommentar von 112559

I killed 8 or 10 all together, after getting killed the second time and discovering the Legash Encampment i was staning on some rocks at 49,21 and got them back to back without moving. Took 35 min. all together.

Kommentar von 115701

lol i did it in less than 30 min as a lvl 50

Kommentar von 118558

Got my 2 in about 20 minute's just head north of the quest giver, was easy exp for me

Kommentar von 119926

srsly. this quest took like an hour and a half. its got the lowest drop rate ever. i ran the zone2 and a 1/2 times killing atleat 100 mobs. stock up on ammo...

Kommentar von 120446

Took me 2 Fliping Days!!!! 2 Fliping Aggonising days!!!!!! Well..... Good luck on the quest! If you need more info Go to Kilrogg add Artachy to freind's I'm on Alliance! Good Luck agin to every one!!!!

Kommentar von 101658

There were much mobs at 40.70, i hope this will help. Good luck!

Kommentar von 125254

I just did this part of the chain last night. What a pain... the drop rate sucked. I killed every single Mosshoof I found in the area north of the ruins, looking EVERYWHERE from the Furbolgs camp all the way over the shoreline and every part in between. It took me over 2 hours to get my first antler, just as I was getting ready to give up on that area and move to the section south of the ruins. I must have killed close to 30 in the north area, then got my second one with about 10 kills south of the ruins. I don't care what anybody says, the north area is freaking hard to hunt in, Giants and Hipo's all over the place, the southern area was less congested and much easier to hunt in.

Oh by the way, both were taken off lvl 52 beast, not 53's.

Kommentar von 127235

i dont know if the patches did anything, but it took me 20 - 30 minutes to get both my antlers.not including the dental appointment i had :)

Kommentar von Raziel

A tip: don't be in a party while doing this quest. Sometimes the quest item won't drop. Same thing happens with a quest in Feralas. If you are not in a party and still don't see it drop for some time, try using this command: /script LeaveParty()

Kommentar von 56707

1 hour and 15 minutes and STILL no drop. I've killed every single Courser I came across, they are easy to spot on the map with Beast tracking on... they show up yellow in a sea of red dots.
I've easily grinded my way from just 1 or 2 bars into level 50... to being 3 bars away from lvl 51 now, all just from this quest.
Very, very annoying. I had to call it a night and hearth to Orgrimmar for rested XP. I'll try again tomorrow. Good luck to anyone else who attempts this. I'm jealous of those I'm reading about that got it in 10 minutes or so... =(

Kommentar von 22738

Worst quest ever, as someone above stated I can confirm: no drops in 1 hour of farm.

Personally I'm dropping the quest, good luck if you don't.

Kommentar von 123260

I went to 52, 29, and did this as a lvl 50 in less than 10 mins

Kommentar von Hyphon

"Such antlers are used to defend the courser, goring an attacker and often damaging the points."

Down the stags quickly, also using Scare Beast so that they can't use gore.

Once you eliminate gore, the drops will improve greatly.

Kommentar von 121207

tis true, terrible drop rate

lots of mobs around 61, 16 and 58,21. i had to kill about 25ish total to get 2 of these

Kommentar von 131738

Found 2 antlers in a row, cords (57,18)

Kommentar von 125208

15 kills to get 2 of them

Kommentar von 138084

Found my antlers at 48.16.. killed 2, got 2 =))) 100 %

Kommentar von 138165

Besides the area just north of Ogtinc, there is another area in southern Azshara that has many more coursers and fewer enemies. The coordinates are 37,69. You will have to travel a ways, but you won't have to deal with as many other enemies once you get there. If I had known about this place before I had completed this quest, I definitely would have gone here instead.

As a side note, the further south you go, there are elite mobs you will run into. As I was traveling through, they didn't come chasing after me, so long as I kept my distance. Still, you might want to stay aware of your surroundings.

Kommentar von Sokur

Just another grinding quest with horrible drop rates, if i could do without https://www.wowhead.com/wotlk/item=19991 i would just say forget it, its more hassle than its worth, but i really want the trinket. Forget about https://www.wowhead.com/wotlk/item=20083 the ice barbed spear is much better https://www.wowhead.com/wotlk/item=19106 (Win an AB match @lvl 51). I got the drops on kills 19 & 21. What a pain.
If you're a skinner theres plenty of rugged & thick leather from the coursers.

Kommentar von 143553

Dropped FIRST 2 kills as well...

Kommentar von 132133

I killed 37 of them. then 2 dropped off of 2 kills in a row. at level 50
why couldnt that have happened on the first kills :(

Kommentar von Ikayuro

I had a horrible time trying to get the antlers to drop. I've killed 40 something of them so far and I still only have one. Horrid drop rate :/

Kommentar von 150336

I grinded over 24k of XP, not rested (at level 52), before the quest items dropped within 3 kills of each other. Horrible drop rate. :(

Kommentar von 155175

I found this quest to be a waste of time. They are impossible to find and at the end of the chain of quests you choose from a polearm and some trinkets, but when you are this close to outland you might as well wait for something better and focus on leveling.

Kommentar von 12927

Drop rate sucked on me...
took me 34 kills to get em both ffs

Kommentar von 147340

There are some around 52.67, 32.87. The drop rate is however quite terrible, as others have suggested.

Kommentar von 70248

Well, I'm now officially creeped out; I got mine on the second and fourth drops. Either I'm the luckiest player in several days or Blizzard nerfed the quest...

Kommentar von 164572

The comment about kill only the 53's is incorrect.....i got some off a lvl 52:)

Kommentar von mlawson03

There are a crapload of these around 43,70

Kommentar von 176914

You can find them at 49,25. But becarfull there are skystormers around that area at level 51

Kommentar von MantiKore

Killed more than 50 to get my 2 quest items...
These low drop rates suck big time! -_-

Kommentar von 126958

Either i'm very lucky or they've changed the droprate, I had two on the first 2 mosshoof coursers i killed...

Kommentar von 180742

I was grinding for about 2 hours on 52 and 53 coursers and still didnt get any antlers i went back the next and got 2 antlers in three kills, so i was there for about 2hrs and 5 mins to get them, and some people got in 5mins. pfft

Kommentar von 181324

Worst...drop rate...ever. I was slaying these things for about half an hour with no luck. Finally got a drop at 35,65 , good luck!

Kommentar von 48088

Quit posting about where they are and how many kills it took. Everyone can look at the mob info to see where they are instead of getting 50 different coordinates from people. They can also look at the drop rate instead of reading anecdotes of great luck or bemoaning terrible luck.

Kommentar von 195238

id have to agree this takes a lot of patience... few coursers roam around they never drop those antlers, with you ending up with no more of these mobs to kill...

but then i found a better spot to hunt them. go to (36,69) of the map and you'll surely find more of em there. almost every corner. every kill i make, i can instantly start and transfer to a new target... this was where i acquired my perfect courser antlers in around 5-10mins... good compared to the no drop 30mins in other areas >_<

hope that helps

Kommentar von 180903

When I first started this quest at 50 I had a horrible time just finding Coursers let alone getting the antlers to drop. I would advise against going to the very northern area of Azshara because of the amount of elite giants in that area (called the Bitter Reaches for a good reason). Instead the Legashi area a bit west of that area is safer and has a good number of the mobs and is where I eventually completed the quest.

Kommentar von 183570

Got my antlers on the 4th and 5th drop at (51,26 ; 26,76) the thalassian base camp.
As a lvl 50 i had no problems with walking past the hyppogyphs.
Good luck

Kommentar von 215007

This quest took no longer then 10 minutes for me. I only killed 4 Courser's and got my antlers on 3rd and 4th kill. I guess I am lucky since what I read about what other people have experienced in this quest, i thought it was going to take a long long time. But luckily for me, not londer then 10 mins and I hope any other hunters that do this quest have goodluck and dont spend hours searching for them.
If you spend more then 3 hours looking for these, forget about it. The rewards are gonna get replaced when you get into outlands, so dont bother if they arnt dropping for you.

Kommentar von 188522

I can rally recomment this sot! They wer' almost too many of those moose-things! :D https://www.wowhead.com/wotlk/maps=16:387697

Kommentar von 188522

i got my first after killing 35 mosshoof's. the second one i got after i killed 3 more

Kommentar von 172462

This quest is the reason I cry at night.

Kommentar von 259529

Took me quite a while to finally obtain the two that the quest needed. Was fine for my skinning trade but was just repetitive in killing the same thing up towards 40 times before I finally got both to drop. I ran it with two other quests so I could bounce back and forth.

Kommentar von 294399

Do i need anything for it to drop? Like a book or something?

Kommentar von heine123

the Absolutly best place to get these is East Legash Enchampment (60,17) plus minus 10 to all sides(with the exception of north ofc ;))

Kommentar von 274818

it took about 20-30 mins to find both, found both in the north of the zone. fact is, you will encounter dozens of hippogryphs for every few courser. kill everyone you see and hope for good luck

Kommentar von deancp1

Good directions - lots of 'em near 40, 72.

True - its a poor drop rate. I got mine on #15 and #24 . They do respawn quickly, though.

Watch out for dragonkin in the area - lvl 51-53 elites, etc.
another nice quest for skinning...

Kommentar von 259717

This almost felt like a skinning quest... good luck on the drop.

Drop rate is 7%

Kommentar von 434239

I just finished this quest and it was horrible. It took me 3 hours to get antlers and I killed almost 150 Mosshoof Coursers. The drop is really rare.

Kommentar von 448181

Nice herd of them at , which I found easier to reach than heading south back through the Nagatypes.

Kommentar von 462235

i found about 8 or 9 at 60 16, with only a couple hippogryhs, only had to clear the area twice for the two drops as a lvl 53 nelf

Kommentar von knerf

24 coursers for me to get the two items......worst of all was pulling all those adds...good luck !

Kommentar von 493630

Nothing special to it, it takes a bit, but just be patient.

Kommentar von 104743

Maybe it's just me, but it seems that while it takes FOREVER to get the first one, the second one drops not too long after. But in general, yeah, this is a pain. Like other people have said, look for them in the south near the dragon kin. It's a small mob, sure, but you don't have to search through mobs of hippogryphs to get to them. =P.

Kommentar von 542365

Right around 57, 17 there are quite a few lvl 53 Mooshoof Coursers and not many Skystormers.

Kommentar von Thottbot

I found them at51,31!

there are loads of them tehre btw!
At first i thought i could kill any moshoof but wen i read the quest properly it has to be the courser one... derr!

Kommentar von Thottbot

killed 32, got 2, and i got 2, also got 2 stacks oh rugged and 1 stack of thick leather.

This was very easy, took me 30 minutes to do. I used melee, pet and ranged. easier then some collecting quests.
Anymal 50 Hunter on Staghelm.

Kommentar von Thottbot

After grinding for about two hours, I must've killed a thousand of these damn coursers and got nothing. I even tried the no pet/no melee tactic (the most damage I was able to do before having to use melee was about 40%, so either I'm not a very good hunter, or it can't be done...)

Since I was out of ammo and feeling like it couldn't be done (especially after reading the posts above) called it a night.

The next day I came back and tried again. I starter my timer when I started grinding. I used my pet, melee weapons, everything. I got the first set of perfect antlers at 8 minutes, and the second at 20.

Hang in there, it can be done. Just bring lots of ammo and patience.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Well that was easy. Found perfect antlers at 40,74 and 41,73, killed only 8 Mosshoff Coursers. I listened to the comment to play it l;ike a hunter and used range and then meleed them using all melee spells. Easy as....off to hand it in. Lvl 51

Kommentar von Thottbot

This quest has NOTHING to do with whether or not you use melee, or whether you use only normal shots. It is a simple kill and loot quest. After being unsuccessful for a while, I tried all the suggestions above and noticed no difference, so reverted back to my normal way - using melee and many shots, and eventually got them.

Kommentar von Thottbot

it easy 2 antlers in 2 kills just never touch it meele noe even with pet just kite it

Kommentar von Thottbot

I kiled randomly, and the antlers drop no matter how you kill the deer. But, it really is a relaxing quest, if you enjoy hunting deer. Ted Nugent would really dig this quest!

Kommentar von Thottbot

L50 orc hunter, got one on my 3rd kill...and with that kill was getting hastled by one of the giants so had to kill quick...1 gnomish deathray later..crit for 2560k and it was dead...the perfect hunter...! lol! and the perfect antler!

Kommentar von Thottbot

Level 56 Night Elf Hunter from the EU server Nordrassil.

Please do yourself a favour, and disregard all previous comments and directions.

In the vicinity of 55,25 (that is a little North of the Thalassian Base Camp) not only you will find Mosshoof Coursers in abudance, but most importantly there will be no Elite Level 55 Giants and Elite 52 Dragonkin around, as in Lake Mennar and vicinity.

Had to kill about ten mobs to complete the quest.

How to get to Thalassian Base Camp for those without Cosmos:

Start at Talrendis Pt., follow the road to the Ruins of Eldarath, then turn North until you reach the mountains, and then turn -and proceed- towards the North-East (roughly 45 degree course) until you reach the Timbermaw Hold. Thalassian Base camp, is on an approximate bearing of 75 degrees or East North East of the Timbermaw Hold.

On a side note, Thalassian comes from the Greek word "Thalassa" meaning "Sea".

Kommentar von Thottbot

The drop ist completely random. Stop posting these esoteric approaches like... I bite on my left side of my tongue and drink 5 drops of my own blood and then it drops with a 50% chance when using no melee weapons and holding breath for 35.3 seconds.

Last nite I smoked at least 100 mosshoof geezas but not one crappy antler thing dropped. Well, it's a decent grinding area anyway, a few 60ies farming dreamfoil could gank you as usual but thats no big deal.

If you please just avoid posting how lucky you were, this makes me eat my bow and each of my arrows... one by one.

Oh, did I mention it? Like it was said in Good morning Vietnaaaam... These kind of quests suck the balls of a dead man dry.

Kommentar von Thottbot

I've gotten two level's killing these stupid deer things and I have gotten no antlers. It's starting to get really irritating. I think I might just wait until 60 to do it, that way I can kill the stupid things faster. Killing them now is a waste of time.

The stupid antlers don't drop, and those of you that they did drop for, you've got better luck than I.

Velliaind 52 hunter Suramar

Kommentar von Thottbot

Part of the point of this quest is that it can take awhile. When you turn it in, he says flat out that it had to take great patience to get them.

So start slaughtering. It took me about 20 minutes at level 51. If you're weak at melee, simply drop a frost trap, and utilize your "intimidate" and "bestial wrath" spells (if you specced beast mastery). I didn't even need bestial wrath, this was very easy.

I know it can be frustrating, what with our instant gratification culture, but sometimes there's no short cut, and it's just grind, grind, and grind some more.

Kommentar von Thottbot

It took me ages to find out how to get them so i just started mucking around then i thought of killing them b4 they become enraged & i got 1 straight away maybe it was just lucky but try it if ur having problems

Kommentar von Thottbot

I spent ages killing these to no avail. I then used my explosive trap and used feign death and got them instantly. 2 kills 2 antlers yay.

Dont know whether this helps anyone

Kommentar von Thottbot

This is one of those quests I feel I could go out on the street to murder someone. Normally I have patience, but this is just silly. Hopelessly annoying to try to avoid the stupid gay deers while putting down traps to get a chance to find a distance to shoot the M.F down. And as people seem to have stated a single hit from it ruins the chance of getting that perfect antler... Impossible?

I'm gonna try scare beast now and see if that could help.

Well, I returned to just trying to grind myself to death on them by killing, I've killed them for two hours soon. Soon I abandon quest, because the rewards aren't really worth this. I might also cancel my WoW subscription in protest to Blizzard for making such a garbage quest.

Wow, after nearly two hours the first god damn perfect antler drops, I don't do any of above told tricks to get them drop and it's just a stupid idiotic quest were you have to kill mobs until you become a gray haired gorilla.

Conclusion: Just kill kill kill, the perfect antlers will drop sooner or later. Or I won't blame you for simply abandoning the quest either, I was nearly doing that also.

Second Perfect Antler dropped 10 minutes after the first one dropped, I did nothing but firing normally. Almost out of ammunition though :-)

The "l33t" tricks mentioned above are of no help. It's only a very bad drop rate in this quest!

Kommentar von Thottbot

agree with the guy before me...spent 3 hours getting 2 antlers...then got all 6 wavethrasher scales in 30 minutes...go figure

Kommentar von Thottbot

took me two hours to get w/ a 70 lock !

This quest has a stupid drop rate.

Kommentar von Thottbot

I killed about 100+ of the Coursers and no perfect antlers, got all broken. I wondered why so I went to thotbott to figure it out. There was really only one person who had a good strategy.
Believe me this is how it's done. I thought the drop rate really sucked. Spent over an hour wasting my time on these and finally found the solution. So anyways here it is.
Melee, Range whatever you want use your pet it doesn't matter just get the Mosshoof to the point where he enrages, it will say down in the text box and then use Scare Beast, I put my pet on Passive but I don't think it matters, but once he's feared range him and just kill him before the fear is over. It works. Tried it on the next two coursers and perfect antlers dropped both times. The key here is to not let him hit you or your pet when he enrages or his antlers will break. The Quest log even gives you a hint about this so it's not complete BS like some people would think. Ok well good luck to everyone.

Kommentar von Thottbot

First I killed 200 with no antlers, then I did a backflip IRL and it dropped twice in a row.

Actually I killed around 30, got one on 31st, another on my 33rd. THERE IS NO SPECIAL TRICK

OMG! QQ Blizzard made me kill tons of mobs in order to complete a quest! Nevermind the crapton of XP i got killing them! i'm very upset with this! i should be able to kill 10 mobs and be done! OMG QQ

jesus people, your getting xp doing the quest. shut up, kill mobs, and the drops will come

Kommentar von Thottbot

WOW guys I found the trick. You have to stand upside down on your head and wiggle your toes and think about being able to fly while you sing the national anthem and jump in circles. If you break your neck in a certain place it should drop! w00t!

Okay for real there is no trick, yes its a horrible drop but it does drop if you have patience

Kommentar von Thottbot

The best area to get the antlers is around 36, 69. Or if you dont have coords, south of the Runs of Eldarath.
I first tried the far north region and inbetween the 200 thunderhawk hippogryph #$%^s there was like 2-4 coursers every like 10 min. 36 69 has no red mobs and the coursers are everywhere. I swear its like heaven.
Enjoy.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Wow after reading all these i suddenly realize blizzard wants us to kill the stags not the birds... *stares behind him at the 537 dead birds behind him*

Kommentar von Thottbot

this quest is bull&*!@ I have killed 100 of these things and have not gotten 1 they need to redo it or something

Kommentar von Thottbot

This quest was very easy,but it took alot of patients for the second one to drop though!

Kommentar von Thottbot

Prepare to be annoyed. Drop rate is about 10%

Kommentar von Thottbot

I have found a good spawn point for the beasts needed (coursers)

Around 53.31 area

Really good spawn rate but no drops

Im assuming its that I'm using melee attacks which apparently I shouldn't do it seems from other posts, I'll try without them and re post with more info =)

Also spotted a rare spawn there too "Antilos" got a drop of Revenant Shoulders of the Bear

Screenshots of both local of Coursers and Antilos just awaiting approval

Hope this helps people out a lil!

Kommentar von Thottbot

you can also find them in the southern area around azuregos, but there are those wandering elites there, so that could make it harder.

Kommentar von Thottbot

There is NO TRICK TO THIS QUEST. None at all. Not in terms of how you kill the coursers anyway. I tried killing the coursers around Ogtinc with no luck, and reading the comments here went down to the south to kill the coursers among the Elite Giants. Still no luck. The whole time I was alternating between just melee, trying to scare them, trying to stun them, and just straight shooting them to death.

I made my way north of where the Leatherworking trainer is north of Lake Mennar. I killed 5 of the coursers there with just regular pet tanking and me shooting and got the antlers no problem. Somehow I don't think that was luck location wise.

My advice though, just use your regular fighting tactics and kill these things as fast as you can. Messing around with scaring them just slows you down and wastes you time.

Kommentar von Thottbot

here is what i got from doing this quest. fight them like you normally would, then wait til about 45% throw down a frost trap then scare them. dont let them hit you when they enrage thats why you get broken antlers. hope this helps.

Kommentar von Thottbot

I killed all of the deers or w/e the same way ranging em while they aggroed my pet even when they were enranged and was hitting my pet. Didnt get my first perfect antler til the 11th kill then the next 3 dropped nothing at all then the 15th dropped another antler. So as far as i can tell they can hit you and pet while enraged you' still get an antler

Kommentar von Thottbot

I have killed 70 of them now and i have got 1/2..So you really have to kill alot of them.

Kommentar von Thottbot

got my two in about 6 kills at (40,73)

Kommentar von Thottbot

yea honestly i had to kill about 50-60......... and i gained like 56k xp just from killing them w/rest, but still thats to long, and the quest isnt even done yet

Kommentar von Thottbot

Creepy... I got my first Perfect Antler on the first kill, along with a Mithril Lockbox, and felt inspired...

... Then spent two hours getting the second one. :(

There aren't that many deer around the area you get the quest, but if you go back near the entrance to Azshara, near the Ruins of Eldarath, there are plenty, and no aggressive monsters to ruin your hunting. Good luck!

Kommentar von Allakhazam

killed about 25 for both the antlers

Kommentar von Allakhazam

well as a lvl 51 hunter with a lvl 44 pet i dropped 5 coursers to get 2 perfect antlers in about 20 minutes...south of ruins

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I found it hard to believe that Blizz would intentionally put anything with THAT bad of a droprate in the game, especially as a normal class quest, so I looked for an answer.

The *way* one hunts is decidedly inconsistent, as is the case with hunters. Some are meleers, some only use ranged, some use guns, some mix it up. This didn't seem like it could be an answer, since Blizzard is pretty consistent in allowing us to play our classes as we wish rather than "the right way is our way" like some MMOs. Next idea...

The idea that enragement had something to do with it was certainly interesting, yet again didn't bear out in posts or practice. People got their drops regardless of the timing of the mob's enrage, and I find no correlation here.

The one consistent thing I noticed on various sites and in tons of posts was "I hunted in place X forever, got nothing, then moved to Y and got both right away." Now here was a theory I could test, and test I did, on 3 different hunters. The results were successful! On my own hunter, I killed Coursers south of the ruins (40,70) for almost an hour and got nothing. Then I rode up north and at 47,26 I met my first Courser, which I killed the exactly same way I had killed all the others down south. The difference was, it dropped a Perfect Courser Antler! I almost fainted for real. heh Then I killed another, and nothing, but the very next one I killed (at 48,19) dropped my 2nd Antlers!

I had looked carefully at each Courser I killed, and there was no difference in markings, antlers, size, or any other distinguishing factor. The method I used was exactly the same, since I was testing, I was very careful to use the same kill technique on all these mobs (mark, then pet atk with all special attacks and growl ON, then CS, then SS, then AS, rinse, repeat till dead).

Thinking it was indeed coincidence, I asked two friends with hunters to try out my theory with me. One of them is level 60 and had never bothered to do the quest, and the other is 53. Both experienced the same success I did using this method. One is a pure meleer and never used ranged, and the other is pure ranged and never melees, so it was perfect for this test. We tried lots of different combos of traps and such at first, and got nothing for at least an hour. Then when we moved to the opposite end of the zone, we got both Antlers within 5 kills.

If I'm not right, it's one heck of a coincidence, and my "scientific method" is flawed. At least using my method, you don't try to only kill them using some silly ass method like standing on your head and only hitting the mob with a puff pastry. You HUNT, what we're supposed to do, and like all good hunters, you move around until you find what you're hunting for. :)

I can confirm this.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

i started out killing 40 or so Coursers up at the northern area, tryied everyway i could, traping, not getting hit at all, just melee, just ranging, etc..

got tired of dealing with the hippogriffs so i headed to the south.
2 perfect antlers dropped for me in 6 kills (37, 68) the mobs were closer together and i only had 1 forest ooze add to me.

maybe its location, maybe its luck, who knows, too all still trying, Good Luck

This quest is SO DAMN ANNOYING.

The deers are surrounded by huge ammounts of hippogryphs, spawn rarely, and have tons of people doing the quest too. AAAAAAAAH!

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I agree with bbbalson. I was hunting for antlers in the northeast section of the map and got 0 drops after like 50 kills. Then I headed to the southern part of the map and got two antlers in 3 kills.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I am 50 hunter on bloodhoof, (killercuho), me and 48 priest killed 6 guys and got drops. we killed the ones in the south (around 40,70). It is not true that u cant melee or use pet or get hit vs them, i used pet and got hit and only used melee on all of them. good luck

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Grinding for 1 day straight now and only one antler. yes im grinding the right ones, yes im doing it in the south, so now im ehaded north. The scales better not be this damned hard to find!

Kommentar von Allakhazam

picked up antler needed on 3rd and 4th kill at (47,26)

Kommentar von Allakhazam

over 20 kills...

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I was prepared for a loooong search for these but I killed 4 and got my 2 drops. I did it with Concussive shot, serpent, Arcane and then melee it to death(I'm survival). Blizz either nerfed this quest or I'm just lucky. I found them among alot of gryphons and behind the Timbermaw place. Not sure if this is to any help, I dont have coords so meh.

40,72

Killed 8 Mosshoof Courser to find my 2 perfect antlers...dont know what the fuss was about

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I got mine on 8 kills =P

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I just did this as a lvl 50 dwarf hunter. The first antler dropped on my 3rd kill, the second one by maybe may 9th or 10th kill. I was in the area around 40,72. I guess it's just random.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Ok, I agree that the south location (35,65-ish, around Peter Galen) is the better choice. After pounding about 80 at the north location with no drops, I decided on a change of scenery. I ran down, and hit my 2 antlers in about 10 kills. The spawn rate is better as well, and the mobs are more concentrated. Plus, IMHO the Mistwing Rogues are much easier to deal with than the Thunderhead Skystormer when ganged up upon. It's a little more hairy to get to, but well worth the trouble. This is now my favorite place for Rugged farming,

I can confirm this.

Just did this quest myself, and had to comment after reading this. Dropped for me after about 25ish or so kills. I didn't move spots once. Guess what? it could be a low drop rate by program. To believe that moving to a different spot drasticaly increases your odds of getting the drop is ridiculous. You are giving the programmers way to much credit, thinking they change the drop rates on the same mob dependant on what coord they are at. Also, having a couple friends come out and get the same results you did, is not a "Scientific method" by any means. If you were to have 1000 friends come out and test this. That would be a scientific method maybe, but lucklily for your sake you only wasted your time testing with 3 people. Bad drop rates = dumb luck. Hate to break it to ya, but theres nothing scientific to figure out about where is best to hunt them.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

they dropped for me around 56.22 with 20 kills...
i was with a friend lvl 63 so maybe we must kill them the fastest we can...

good luck ;P

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I noticed whilst completing this that my drops only came on melee combat.

Using ranged dropped junk, however twice I got over eager and ended up hand to hand, whacked Frenzy on to take it down alot quicker and on each melee attack did the antlers drop.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I killed 2 of the coursers in the N eastern part of Aszhara and they both dropped the antlers, took my under 5 minutes. Only problem is that the hippogriffs were killing me so that was annoying.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

~10 kills, less than 15 minutes = 2 Pefect Courser Antlers.

Definitely go to the South of the ruins.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

hmm.. did they fix the drop rate? i killed 5 and got the quest done

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Got both Antlers in 5 kills, was hoping for longer to be honest, it seemed like a good grind quest.

Edited, Jun 17th 2007 7:20am by XLokianX

Kommentar von Allakhazam

killed over 50, Jhaelen killed over 100, no drops

Kommentar von Allakhazam

47,19 had a fairly large amount of Coursers per capita. Still took forever but there was 4-5 at a time there, instead of the stragglers I ran across everywhere else

Kommentar von Allakhazam

after killing lots of these with no drops, i looked around and found people talking about how to kill them to get them to drop Perfect Courser Antlers. i thought it was a little fishy, but after trying it, i killed 4 to get the two antlers.

send in your pet. keep the coursers focus on them.
only use your ranged weapon.
i also didn't use too many spells, but only used normal ranged attack. i did this initially to make sure i didn't aggro the courser.

not sure if it works or not, but after killing scores of them, i was willing to try anything --and it did seem to work.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Between Lake Mennar, and forlorn ridge .. Got the first one on the first kill, the second after about the 5th kill.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

49, 25 -ish. Got the first antlers on my first drop..2nd one on my 8th drop. From what im reading guess i got lucky

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I'm glad I didnt have the experience some of the guys had on this qst

34.65

If you look on your mini map just above where it says Forlorn Ridge

There is a road that runs vertically and ends nowhere at cords 34.65

This is where I found my first Stag

I made my way down the hill in a SE direction till I got to cord 41,71

My first antler dropped on kill 7 and my last on kill 14

I just strolled through and killed the deer, if I saw a Chymera or a slime I dealt with it before going anywhere near the deers.

This was about the easiest qst I have ever done, sorry to anyone who has to kill a million to get a drop.

By the way , I tried kiting and hammering and scarying. I dont think it actually makes any difference , so just kill em fast , lol.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Quest details have been updated. Please let us know if this is incorrect.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

received 5100xp @ 57
leads to: Wavethrashing

notes: didn't have too much trouble @57, but it is tricky to avoid aggro. Just head to the east tip and back and by that time, you should have managed to make about 20 kills. If the antlers will drop for you.. well, that's another story.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

this took me about 5 minutes, the first two coursers I killed both dropped the antlers

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I must have killed 50 Mosshoof Coursers, great rested XP, 'till I tried the Scare Beast spell. Right when the beast becomes enraged, hit the sell and dps hard. worked for me 2 times in a row tp get the Perfect Courser Antler drops.

Good Luck!

Kloek - PvP!

Kommentar von Allakhazam

i got this one in 3 kills on the northern penninsula. probably just got lucky

Kommentar von Allakhazam

It got it done easily, I killed around 10 coursers and got 2 perfect antlers.

South of the ruins was where I hunted

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I did this for 5 HOURS! Advice- DO NOT kill those up north! Go down south, South eastern area. There are a bunch and it won't be as frustrating.... I got like 8 bars from this god dammit wasted my day.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Got my first after like 7 now I have killed like 10 more and nothing. Its not completely awful, just what I like to call really bad.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

First one droped from the third mosshoof courser south of the ruins. Second one about 20 kills later.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I just now did this quest and it only took me 2 kills to get the antlers, that's right, the first 2 I killed dropped them! Luckyyyyyyy! I found a group of em around 49,25 and picked off the first 2, and there ya go! good times....but like many of you, i'm going to agree with ya'll when I say I DON'T LIKE AZSHARA AT ALL

Kommentar von Allakhazam

This quest is really annoying. I killed like 700 deer (w/e) and on the last 2 they drop. And yes, i was farming the Coursers.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

50 Hunter - Alliance

yeah... no matter what I do the dang things dont drop. Kite it, beat the crap out of it, nothing, and YES im hitting the right ones. I give up, I hope I dont actually NEED this quest for anything.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I got both the antlers in five kills using the kite method. i started with scare beast but that sometimes wore off so i found that just laying a fire trap, concussive spamming, and arcane shot works great. just watch out for hippos ^^

Kommentar von Allakhazam

What are the cords for the quest npc?

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I have killed about 30 with no luck up north. I am heading south to try. I looked at the drop rate.
Its at 1.59%
I assume that includes people who do not have the quest, so that lowers the rate. Priests also have a quest to kill these. I'm not sure if anyone else would be up here killing them. So the drop rate IF you have the quest is probably about 5%. That means every 20 kills or so you should get one. Of course with bad luck you could kill 50 and not get a drop!

Kommentar von Allakhazam

3 hours of killing 52 and 53 mosshoof coursers, and no drop...
another classic Blizzard "crap in your face" quest

good luck to those who attempt it...you have been warned

Edited, Wed Oct 19 10:22:00 2005

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I was grinding away with no drops. I then relized the Courser was getting enraged right before he died. So i pulled my pet back right before he enranged and killed him from a distance. There for not letting him attack me or my pet. The Next 2 drop the antlers. I hope this helps.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

1st Antler on my second kill, 2nd Antler on my 8th. :)

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Hey guys! This MAY help...

Running w/ my lev 51 hunter. Like most of u, I killed like 30 of these damn deer w/out a single perfect antler. I tried all three main locations where the coursers are found but nada! Then I re-read the quest. It mentioned that the antlers are damaged by the animal goring it's enemies. So, I tried one with a lot of CC (concusive shot, frost trap, wingclip, etc...) and I got as much DPS on it as I could before it could actually strike me or my cat. My first try, BANG! Perfect antler. I hit a second w/ no luck but on the third, the second perfect antler! Don't know if I'm on to something or if I just got lucky. If you try it and it works, please post and let everyone know! Good hunting.

PS: I dinged 52 while I was finishing the quest! YAY!

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I found a whole bunch of Coursers all together on the small "peninsula" at 52,36. 6 Coursers, got my second antler on the 5th one.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I've been hunting them north-east for 3 full hours. Kill so many I lost count. Hell, I made about 50000 XP killing them and that's no joke. NO DROPS AT ALL.

Didn't get even one. Maybe I do it wrong. In the log it says that courser will damage their antlers defending themselves. So I have to kill them while they're like asleep or something ? Excuze me but as a hunter, I don't have any mean of killing a level 53 beast without punching on it with arrows or sword or my pet. So those of you that did get the antlers, you were more lucky than me.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Got the antler's after about 25 kills. Plenty of Coursers to the south of the ruins.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I sepnt at least 1.5 hours grinding these Mosshoof Coursers and all I managed to find is 1 Perfect Courser Antler. I did farm them south of the ruins as most suggested.

Frankly speaking, those who managed to find it within 3-20 kills is insanely lucky but to those that had to grind them for hours at a time, look on the bright side: you get a decent amount of EXP from it.

And if you abandoned the quest, I advise you to go back to it: At least one of the trinkets is worth the constant grinding.

Edited, Wed Jun 21 20:02:38 2006

Kommentar von Allakhazam

im either very lucky or they have altered the drop rate because i got both in my first 2 kills.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I only killed 3 Coursers and got the 2 perfect antlers. Coordinates are 40,70 exactly where Killercuho said it was. Thanks Killer!

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I did what darqueblueknight sugest and bang! got both antler in 3 kill ...I was trying before I kill like 60 of them no drop when I decide to read here and found the post that save the day :)
got my 3 kill at 53,28.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Ok after reading this I went in fully expecting to have to grind this out, and I wasn't dissapointed.

Forget all the psuedo science about pulling pet back, kiting etc. Just kill, kill and kill again until they drop

40 70 is where I got both mine, after about 50 kills. 2nd dropped 2 kills after the first

Kommentar von Allakhazam

36:71

two kills = two antlers

super easy as lvl 50 hunter...

elite lvl 52 dragonkin are just to south of 36:71; you need these for dragonscales for dragonscale leatherworking quest

Just wait for the next part of the chain...

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Well, after hunting Dozens of mosshides I realized I was killing runners not corsares .... silly me.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I followed this guide by players, I went to the south ruins, and killed maybe 30+ coursers and got nothing. I went to the north part where no one gets the drops, I got them in 2 kills. Hope this will help anyone who gets a prob that I had.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Did this frustrating part of the quest this morning. I ran around for quite a while just trying to find any Coursers to kill, even tried some of the coordinates people put here and didn't have the luck they did. I finally got the two antlers in the area of 68, 24. On the run back to Ogtinc I found a little herd of the Coursers at 58, 33 near the Blood Elf Surveyors. So that may be an area to try for someone else.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Got first set on 5th kill, second on 9th. >20%?

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I found that a trick is that is if you loot before they fall to the ground u have a better chance to get the 2 antlers...

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I know no one believes it, but I think it's true that avoid being hit by the courser is the way to go. Got it first drop after not being hit by the courser. I'm not saying you can't get it any other way, I'm saying it will greatly improve your chances.

And I found a use for scare beast. I never used this skill/spell before. Concussive shot/scare beast. (actually I scared before conc), sick pet, all out dps= no hits on me or my pet. perfect antlers.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Killed like 15 and not a single one yet....so sick...of WoW quests...

Kommentar von Allakhazam

dude this quest better give a %^&* load of exp cuz it has the worst drop rate ive ever had on a quest. ive killed about 30 so far and 0 antlers and its been about an hour >=[.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

You all are hunting in the wrong spot. 3 kills 2 antlers.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Was easy once I moved to the right spot.

First I tried North of the ruins where all the hippogryphs are, grinded on them for 3 hours then I moved South of the ruins, where there was practically no mobs 'cept the coursers, got my first antler on the second kill, and my second atler 10 kills later.

Plus I got a nice green drop (Diviner Staff of the Owl) off these guys :D

What I notice was that a few secs after thai fall, there necks flail back as if they were being cracked, so I tried looting them before that happened and got mine. Dunno if that really works, but just what I noticed.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I don't believe in those area-theories or any other things people have suggested. WoW just sometimes does this, first you don't get any antlers for a hour (both south and north) and then you get them both pretty much in a row. Happened to me in many quests and in this one too... Has something to do with first item you get, once you get that you get rest soon too.

I didn't want to waste time with science, so I went straight for the area where Ellenroh and her crew got their drops. I got mine in three kills total. It didn't matter how I killed them, and all three enraged. Go to the 51/31 type area, and be sure to avoid the Timbermaws if they don't like you. They like to knock you off your mount.

Then again, maybe I was insanely lucky?

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Got it all in maybe 20 minutes, used scare beast both times I got it- if it'll help someone. Good luck!

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Damn - be prepared for the long haul coz this quest is a #$%^.
Everything about this quest sucks: the droprate, the scarcity of the coursers, the hundreds of hippogryphs getting in your way.
Eww i hate it. Took me an hour and a half and 37 coursers.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

turn it in at 42,42

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Goto the south location, the spawn is ok, got my 2 after 20 or so kills. the trick i think is to take ur pet away at 25% of the stags health and kite it using concussive shot etc.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I did this in 3 kills for 2 perfect antlers right by the Dragonscale trainer Peter Galen. Both drops came from sending pet in to tank and filling it full of arrows. no special method

cheers

Kommentar von Allakhazam

On your map, Forlorn Ridge, near Lake Mennar.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

With quests like these I'm lead to believe that blizzard with don't bother to read or do and don't give a @#$% about its play base, as having to kill the same mob so often to get 1 item is such a depressing thing to do, for a quest most of all.

If they gave a @#$% about the paying customers who need to endure this crap, they would increase the drop rate. Since the quest has to having to go into sunken temple (like most other classes are forced to), it should not be made so hard to get an these antlers beforehand.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I killed like 100 of them and its south of the ruins and got nothing this is a waist of time what do you get fro the hunters qeust if blizz wants us to play on the game they must atleast not make it drops 0.0% i am tierd from just playing there killing mosshoff stuff for nothing i killed so many i dont eavan get drops from them
i realy want to do this qeust but its a rare drop if anyone wanna help me i am on the Us server on aggramar server my char name is nightbuddy PST me PLZ

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Not sure if the drop rate has changed (dramatically) for this but it only took me 4 kills to get the 2 antlers on Thunderhorn(EU). Picked the spot south of the ruins, just be careful of adds.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Some people sound like they're killing Mosshoof Runners instead of Mosshoof COURSERS. The Runners are in north center of the zone; the Coursers are in south central area of Azshara...

READ THE QUEST...Carefully...

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I didn't even know I had this quest on, so my loot filter was wacking away at all the perfect atler drops. after about a good 40 or so drops and deletes I was like hrmmm maybe it's worth selling, turned off my loot filter kill just two more deer, got my two antlers and at that point I noticed it was unsellable and actually a quest item, So I went and turned it in. Then the guy told me to go kill threshers... I havn't gotten bored enough to go do it yet... but point blank this quest is uber easy... I mean I was throwing away these antlers... looking at my loot filter now... I got 47 perfect antlers in 1.3 hours Seriously people it's not the fact they don't drop, it's just you all suck at life. : P

Kommentar von Allakhazam

As of right now I've spent about four hours total beating these Mosshoof Coursers to death. I've tried everything one can think of: kiting without pet, kiting with pet, pet with melee, pet with range, range without pet, pet without melee, combination of melee and range, and pet solo while I heal. I've tried the north eastern tip of the zone and the southeastern tip of the zone. I've died over 10 times in NE zone too. I've killed over 200 of these and recieved ZERO antlers. I'm coming back to this quest later.

Congrats to those who got theirs on their first 10 kills or 20 kills, you're lucky. Be glad you aren't one of us taht have spent endless hours attempting ot complete this quest...

Kommentar von Allakhazam

2 Antlers in 15 minutes. Far north coastal cliffs. EZ

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Hehe i killed 3 mosshoof and i got the 2 item... (51,26)

Kommentar von Allakhazam

got first on my 4th kill still going on my 2nd antler on about my 65th kill and counting.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Here's one thing to consider. I KNOW for a fact I had accepted the quest "Courser Antlers" but when I went back to read the quest text it was missing from my quest list. I went back to Oginc and there was nothing over his head indicating a quest available, but when I right clicked he had the quest there for me to accept. I hadn't even thought of checking to see if the quest was in my list, cause I know I had reviewed the quest text after the time I got it originally, then I went out and killed 100+ Coursers and got nothing. Frustrated I went to read it and it wasn't there. I got both antlers in about 25 kills after I made 100% sure that the quest was in my list. It's possible I was a n00b and didn't accept it originally, I'll concede that. But do yourself a favor and check your list.

As a side note, I think there are far more Coursers south of Eldarath than north of it.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I killed about 30 w/ no drop, and then killed about 10 more and got 2... so 5% seems about right.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Some people win money in Vegas and some (most)lose. It has more to do with how the chance falls than any particular strategy you use.

I never payed any attention to the enraging at the end and I still got my perfect antlers. It took me about 50 kills for the 2 - which thankfully is about average.

Just kill them wherever you find them and you will be fine.

Good Luck!

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I spent 45 minutes down south by the lake killing to get the two Perfect Courser Antlers. A friend told me that the strategy was to kite with no pet, but I just used the pet and Ranged/Melee. The first 30 minutes I got nothing, but received the two drops in last 15.

On a lighter note, I got 3 Blue Dragonscales from killing and skinning those Elite Dragonkin down there. Woot for me.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Abandoned, not worth it. Three hours with no drops, killing about 150-200 of them. Good exp if you're rested, but vendor-trash got me only about 1 gold. Avoid this quest and grind better mobs.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I just did this. I swam in from the south til I came to a place where I could get above the rock wall. I came this way because I don't know the zone since I just turned level 50 and I couldn't find a way throught/past the dragons in the southern part. I had tried the north and I felt there were too manay mobs that were too close together. When I took the path throught the cliff wall, there were the coursers. I killed the first one and nothing. I killed the second one and got my first antler. The third one yielded my second antler. I just ran through the mobs back to the road. It was a lot of swimming but it worked out fine. The only problem I had was being attacked in the water by a 55 mob. It was hard to kill and I was lucky. I was more careful of aggro range after that. I hope that helps someone.

10 kills 2 perfect antlers less than 20 mins. fear with conc shot, wrath pet, kill from distance 'boom' perfect antlers on the se side of the forlorn ridge

Kommentar von Allakhazam

3 kills for me. No special attack, just sent pet and shot arrows. 52.30 area.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Got my first pair on the 4th kill and 2nd pair on the 18th kill. Not great, but not horrible.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I killed some in the area (48,19)and a little further up...took me 15 mins to get two antlers possibly not even that...

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I had no problems doing this quest... go to 47,26 the first two I killed dropped them.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Lets clear this up for those who are confused. This quest sucks pure and simple.
People can dress it up how they like using statistics etc but in reality its just bad luck. Got one on the first drop, got the 2nd on the 64th! Its a ^&*!ing joke and the reward? Plain ole xp.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

YAY HAHA PETER STORMARE! HE IS THE BEST ACTOR IN THE WHOLW WORLD

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I have to agree with the posters before me who said the spot around the dragonscale trainer is the place for the drops. I killed about 40 Courser's and had zero perfect antlers before going to that area. Once I got in that area I killed 5 Courser's and had both perfect antlers.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Bad drop rate i must say

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I got both of mine in under 5 kills, there are a number of them between Peter Galen (the master dragonscale leatherworker) and lake mennar. Hope that helps =)

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Coords: 53,28

This trick being considered seems silly, but I did get both antlers in 5 kills. I usually froze the deer in place when it was down to 10-15% then finished it off. Would that matter? Who knows.

The idea is a logical one. A deer hits someone and can damage its antlers. But I've been around plenty of roasted/nuked/friend humanoids that drop cloth armor or scraps of cloth,beasts that drop coins and so on. Unless the death is specific to the plot, I'd shrug it off as coincidence. Good luck fellow hunters just the same.

-Go to that address and there are two cirlcles, the green one is where they are located, the red is where they are more frequent (a hot spot). But watch out for the hippogriffs, there are alot of em and they will attack you while you're fighting the coursers

Kommentar von Manniala

Dont do any of the s..t that people write about, nothing of it works, there are no trick to this, but here is the real thing, how to get this done.

Go to Azshara, kill 100 of them, logout in rage that you dident get any, stop playing for a while, come back, kill a few hundret again, then again just EXIT the game, do not think about it for a good while, then come back again, and think you may have been unlucky the other 2 times, now you stay with it for 200 more kills, but come to the conclusion that the q just plain sux, exit wow, unsub.

Then you just forget about the quest and wow for a good while, but one day you realize you really want to play wow, now you resub, you fire up wow Classic again, well forgotten about the damn quest, and just eager to play, but once you are at the Login Screen and see your hunter, it all comes back to you again, and you think OMFG i never did the quest, why am i even here!
But you just payed for 6 month sub, so you reluctant login and now you get 1 drop after only 400 more kills, and your to far into this to quit now, 6 month sub, 800+ kills in, so you continue for another 5 hours til you get the next drop, and you are so happy and sad at the same time, you start crying and your Wife comes in and ask whats wrong, you tell her, i got it, i just got, i really did it!

Kommentar von Combined

I would just like to say that the drop rate for the quest item is 3.41%

So you will be there quite a while..

Kommentar von JLMgremlin

Got my first after about 20 kills, second after about 15 more kills. Mix it up with the Legashi for the felcloth and make the grind profitable. Got a quarter of a level of xp just from the kills on this quest.

Kommentar von Wicker

From my testing, it seemed as though the stag spawns are shared with the Thunderhead Skystormers (hippogryphs), so if you can't find any Mosshoof Coursers try killing some to free up spawn space in the zone, then return back on respawn (I think about 3-5 minutes).

Did this in Classic, took about 30 kills total for the 2 antlers.

Good luck

Kommentar von Wimbleton

I've assumed that this was just a grind for the items and that they would drop at some point before the heat-death of the universe. My hunter is also a skinner / LW, so the leather is great and Azahara is a lovely place to wander around, except of course for those annoying Cliff Jumpers or whatever they're called. On Day 1 of this quest, I killed about 25 Coursers East and Northeast of Lake Mennar with no quest drops. On Day 2, I went out to Ursolan, where I found a group of Coursers at 50.73 29.51. The first antler dropped from my third kill and the second from my fifth.

I have no opinion as to what this means other than maybe this day I was extremely lucky. On the other hand, it's a nice, scenic place to do some farming, so why not? Your mileage may vary.

Kommentar von Fingers0689

It's hard to tell which aspect of this quest makes it the more annoying.

A) The scare population of the coursers themselves.
B) The unwillingness of this item to drop.
C) Or the 4000 other area mobs that you have to fight through/dodge while trying to kill these agro deer.

Trying every trick people mentioned had literally 0 effect helping me finish this quest. Got the first one at 12 and then took me 30 more to get the next one.

Kommentar von musclefollower

Reading the comments, I can conclude that there's some people with huge luck, and others for which this quest will be hell. I was one of those who tried, and tried, north, south, whatever, not a single drop after dozens and dozens of stags. Then I read the quest... suggesting that "perfect" meant undamaged... So I thought: "Maybe if I do everything possible to not let the stag gore me a single time, its antlers will be perfect because they didn't touch anything". And believe it or not, I put the ice trap, scare beast, scatter shot, concussive shot, AND IT WORKED. My first pair.

So I decided to repeat, and failed the second one. I saw the comments about the enrage as being the key. On my third attempt some shots missed, so the stag got me, got enraged, so I thought: "Well, this one will fail too..." AND THEY DROPPED. So either this quest is all messed up, or you have to come one day with luck all over you. It seems to work in all sorts of ways. There doesn't seem to be "a method" other than the attitude of the server that day on deciding if it will give the antlers to you or not.

Good luck out there and good hunting.

Kommentar von Bullskit

Finished this quest today as a 51 hunter. There is no special trick to get these to drop. I tried the different methods and nothing was working so I just went back to killing them normally. I stayed on the north part of the map the whole time. Killed 25 lvl 52s and 16 lvl 53s. Both antlers dropped in the last 5 or so kills. Got one from a 52 and the other from a 53. I don't think the enrage matters at all.

Kommentar von Ajfree

Got one on my first kill and the 2nd on my 60th kill, just don't give up. Or do, I'm not your mom

Kommentar von IceStorm88

Guys I suggest you start from /way 35 65
Here you will see many of this Mosshoof Coursers, here I killed 10 mobs and complete quest.
Hope this helps, if so wote up!

Season of Discovery
Biggest dopamine hit when I got the second drop.
You don't want to know what I had to do for it to drop, but a chicken was choked in the process.
RIP

Kommentar von Level9Turtle

10 Kills and done. The key is not the Fear its to Kite the mob. Never let it hit you or it damages the antlers. You can use your pet just turn off growl.

Kommentar von Karochiten

Haha it's 2024, and I've killed hundreds, and nothing, until I shouted, "drop your damn antlers" the next 2 deer dropped them. Hahahaha
