Walkthrough & Notes

This quest is part of the Tracking an Old Goat deed. The area in which this quest is offered is fairly small. It is centred on the mid-point between the N and W in Gravenwood on the map (around [81.7S, 12.2W]. You may need to wait a moment for Andreg to activate. You will be able to see the Orc-traps on the ground, even when they are not highlighted as quest objectives. For example, there is an Orc-trap at [81.8S, 12.2W]. Summon Andreg at this point, and he will offer the quest. If you step on one of the traps, you will receive the effect Trapped and will be unable to move for one minute, even after you disable the trap. Note it is possible to inch up to the trap and disable it without triggering it.
