Hey there! Ready to help out with some adorable hamsa chicks? This quest, 'High Hopes for the Hatchery,' is a Level 80 side quest in Thavnair. It's pretty straightforward, so let's get you through it!
- 1Start the quest: You'll find the Arkasodara Youth waiting for you in Thavnair at coordinates (X: 11.8, Y: 22.1). He's eager to get started, so chat with him. The nearest Aetheryte is The Great Work, so make your way there if you aren't already close.
- 2Head to the Hamsa Hatchery: After your initial chat, the youth will ask you to meet him at the Hamsa Hatchery. Head over to (X: 12.8, Y: 10.4) and speak with him again.
- 3Sprinkle the solution: Now, you'll need to help the youth with the hamsa nests. Look west from where you're standing, and you'll spot six hamsa nests. Interact with each of these nests to sprinkle the Pungent Solution. It's a simple task, just make sure you get all six!
- 4Return the egg: Once all six nests have been treated, head back to the Arkasodara Youth. He'll have a hamsa egg for you to take.
- 5Final chat at The Great Work: Your last stop is back at The Great Work. Speak with the Arkasodara Youth again at coordinates (X: 11.8, Y: 22.2) to complete the quest.
