Rock-Worms

General Quest

The Free People's Camp is a small encampment northwest of the Norbury Gates. You get to it by taking the road going through the middle of the Fields of Fornost to the north as far as you can go. This ends in a fire behind a gate to the ruins. Take a left (west) here, and you'll soon enter the camp to the southwest.

Bork wants to ensure that no worms get near the mines, and that they do not attract any drakes or bigger things. To that end, you'll be killing some for him.

NOTE: For your comparison, here was our group make-up: Myself, a level 36 Hunter; Brasse, a 34 Guardian; Grif a 31 Captain; and Kari, a 35 Burglar. As long as we did not get swarmed by these critters we were fine. Thank you for all the help with this quest!

STEPS:

1) Defeat 10 Fearsome Rock-worms. Bork tells you:

"Worms have begun to spawn in the hills of the North Downs, and many have even made their way into these ruins."

You'll find the Fearsome Rock-worms, level 34-35 Elite, in the western section of Fornost (5.8s, 56.1w).

2) Talk to Bork.

3) After you speak with them and select "Finish Now", you get your coin reward, XP, Bork's Ring, and you will now be able to take the next quest, Ending the Elder.
