Casting drain souls on hogger while he dies haven’t gave me the shard do you have to do it allone ?
The Pure Soul Shard and Tainted Shard work just as good.
thank you that fact is no where except here.
Anyone know whats the deal? Neither Gazz’uz OR Maggot Eye are dropping the Wanted Soul shard, I only get Normal Soul Shard….
Orc Warlock btw, but Idk if that even matters cuz I got pure soul shard instead of Innocent soul shard and I was in durotar when I got it.
I just realized I have a “tainted” soul shard but then that would prove this guide has Misinformation
Corrected the names of the items, sorry about that!
Yeah, Warlock in DunMourgh gives Pure Soul shard from an innocent and Tainted Soul shard from Beld. Not the ones indicated.
what do you mean? i have tainted and pure shard and damien kane did nothing
nvm went to the wrong npc, he´s behind the barrels lol
Something you need to know about hogger: If you outlevel him, you normally gain no soul shard due to no exp. The game is scripted to still give you a shard if SOUL DRAIN gets the killing blow.
