The '''Netherwing''' is the main faction of the [[netherwing dragonflight]] in [[Outland]].
−
'''Vanish''' allows the rogue to disappear from sight, entering an improved stealth mode for 10 sec. Also breaks movement impairing effects (other than the movement speed reduction from being Stealthed). All aggroed mobs on rogue will exit combat phase and return to their original locations or turn to other players if the rogue is in a party. Any damage done (including active [[DoT]]s, fall damage, [[campfire]]s and [[brazier]]s) will make the rogue visible.
  
   
  +
Although generally hostile to most humanoids based on their treatment by the [[Dragonmaw clan]] of [[orc]]s in [[Shadowmoon Valley]], they can be swayed to change their attitude if tasks to aid them are completed.

You can start these quests at level 70 with Expert Riding (normal flying). However, you cannot proceed on the quest chain until you have Artisan Riding (fast flying). At level 80, most of these daily quests reward about {{cost|5}}, so players may wish to continue repeating them for cash even after reaching {{reputation|exalted}}.

The quest chain begins by speaking with {{NPC|Neutral|Mordenai|level=71+|smallicon=IconSmall_HighElf_Male.gif}}, who wanders the [[Netherwing Fields]] in the southeast corner of [[Shadowmoon Valley]]. [[Mordenai]] wanders around [[Netherwing Fields]] and is often fighting flayers. When he is in combat, the '!' will not be visible, making it harder to find him. To get the quest sooner, just assist him in combat. You will need a flying mount for this chain.

'''Note:''' The quests in the Hated-to-Neutral chain are ''not'' daily quests. These are one-time-only quests that upon completion bring your reputation with the Netherwing up from {{reputation|hated}} to {{reputation|neutral}}. It is not possible to start the daily quests before this entire chain is completed.
−
==Notes==
  
−
*Allows the rogue to re-[[Stealth]] while in combat.
  
−
**While the rogue still has the Vanish buff, his Stealth is several levels higher than it is normally, allowing him to remain undetected, even versus players much higher level than himself. This effect is much greater with Rank 2 of Vanish than with Rank 1.
  
−
*Breaks free of [[root]] effects like [[Frost Nova]] and [[Entangling Roots]].
  
−
*Removes effects that allow other players to see the rogue's location, such as [[Hunter's Mark]] and [[Mind Vision]].
  
−
*Vanish does not work on city [[guards]].
  
−
*Vanish does not remove [[DoT]]'s on you.
  
−
**It is recommended to use [[Cloak of Shadows]] to remove these DoT's as it is not on the [[GCD]]
  
   
  +
The +42000 reputation for Ally of the Netherwing is '''not''' subject to the human +10% reputation bonus. However, it is subject to the [[Spirit of Sharing]] buff at present. It is also subject to any guild-based reputation bonuses you may have.
−
==Related talents==
  
−
*[[Preparation]] immediately finishes the cooldown of Evasion, Sprint, Vanish, Cold Blood, Shadowstep and Premeditation.
  
−
*[[Elusiveness]] reduces the cooldown of Vanish and Blind by 45 seconds per point, up to 90 seconds.

The questline resumes by speaking with [[Mordenai]], 300 [[riding]] skill and a flying mount are required to continue. Players who accept the introduction quest have Mordenai use the [[Dragonflight]]'s magic on them to appear as a [[fel orc]] riding a [[nether drake]] while in the vicinity of [[Dragonmaw Fortress]] and [[Netherwing Ledge]]. This makes all fel orcs in the region excluding Dragonmaw Ascendants, Dragonmaw Skybreakers and Dragonmaw Transporters appear friendly to the player. The fake mount provides the same speed bonus as the real thing, giving a nice preview of what all the hard work is for.
   
  +
*[[Quest:Blood Oath of the Netherwing]], 300 [[riding]] skill is required to accept this quest.
−
==Tips==
  
  +
**[[Quest:In Service of the Illidari]] (+250 reputation)
−
*Vanish is not affected by global cooldown.
  
  +
***[[Quest:Enter the Taskmaster]]
−
*If you are being chased by a [[hunter]] and you have not yet been hit with [[Serpent Sting]], Vanish will remove [[Hunter's Mark]] and allow you to get away.
  
  +
****[[Quest:A Job Unfinished...]] (+250 reputation)
−
*Vanishing is not useful if you have been hit with a DoT. Use Cloak of Shadows if it is a spell effect first. If you're a dwarf, also try Stoneform.
  
  +
****[[Quest:Nethercite Ore]] (requires [[mining]]), {{quest|Netherdust Pollen|Netherdust Pollen}} (requires [[herbalism]]) or {{quest|Nethermine Flayer Hide|Nethermine Flayer Hide}} (requires [[skinning]]) (+250 reputation) ''Only one may be completed per day.''
−
*Most casters will be able to AoE you when you Vanish (it's kinda obvious of where you are, even if we can't see you). Use Cloak of Shadows or Sprint or strike with Cheap Shot or potentially Sap (if they are out of combat already) to avoid this.
  
  +
****[[Quest:Netherwing Crystals]] (+250 reputation)
−
*It may be useful to use Vanish if you are near death and the enemy is low on health. Vanish and [[Cheap Shot]] will often catch your enemy off guard and let you regain control.
  
  +
***[[Quest:Your Friend On The Inside]]
−
*During [[boss]] fights in [[raid]]s or [[group]]s vanish is useful if the rogue draws [[aggro]] from the main [[tank]]. The [[mob]] will not reset as long as somebody else still has aggro, plus a new Stealth attack can be started.
  
  +
****[[Quest:A Slow Death]] (+250 reputation)
−
*It may be too late if you save Vanish until you have aggro. Use Vanish early into the fight (boss @ 70%) to drop all aggro. You will save energy that would have been spent on [[feint]].
  
  +
****[[Quest:The Not-So-Friendly Skies...]] (+250 reputation)
−
*If you play on a PvP server, and you see a ?? of the other faction rolling up, you can Vanish and [[Sprint]] away, and hope for the best. With how Vanish raises your Stealth by a great deal, you may just get away without a corpse run.
  
  +
****[[Quest:The Great Netherwing Egg Hunt]] (+350 reputation)
−
*During a boss fights, wait for 50~ energy before vanishing, so you can immediately [[Garrote]] and continue DPS, vanishing at low energy means you will either waste time for you energy to tick up before you can attack, or have to cancel Stealth and miss out on this special attack.
  
  +
*****[[Quest:Accepting All Eggs]] (+250 reputation)
  +
Players who do not have at least one gathering profession will be unable to complete the gathering based daily quests and so are at a slight disadvantage to players who do have a gathering skill. The [[Black Blood of Draenor]] mob found within the nearby mines drops [[Sludge-Covered Object]] that has a chance to contain any of the gathered items, but without a gathering profession, the related quests do not appear.
  +
  +
===Friendly to Honored===
  +
Players receive a trinket that summons a [[Overseer's Badge|combat pet]] while in Shadowmoon valley and open up an additional 3 daily quests. Earlier repeatable quests are still available.
  +
*[[Quest:Rise, Overseer!]] (+250 reputation and {{loot|uncommon|Overseer's Badge}})

***[[Quest:The Booterang: A Cure For The Common Worthless Peon]] (+350 Reputation)
  +
  +
===Honored to Revered===
  +
Players receive an [[Captain's Badge|upgraded trinket]], allowing them to summon a combat pet in all zones. All previous repeatable quests are still available and another daily quest as well as the Dragonmaw Races become available.
  +
* [[Quest:Stand Tall, Captain!]] (+500 Reputation and {{loot|rare|Captain's Badge}})
  +
** [[Quest:Disrupting the Twilight Portal]] (+500 Reputation)

  +
**# [[Quest:Dragonmaw Race: Captain Skyshatter]] (+1000 Reputation) <!--Good luck!-->
  +
  +
===Revered to Exalted===
  +
Players receive yet another [[Commander's Badge|upgrade to the trinket]], this time adding 45 stamina, and open up a daily group quest. All earlier repeatable quests are still available. The questline after Hail, Commander! depends on which of the [[Shattrath City]] [[faction]]s players are allied with.
  +
* [[Quest:Hail, Commander!]] (+500 Reputation and {{loot|rare|Commander's Badge}})
  +
** [[Quest:Kill Them All! (Scryer)]] / {{Quest|Kill Them All! (Aldor)|(Aldor)}} (+250 Reputation)
  +
*** [[Quest:Commander Hobb]] (Scryer) / {{Quest|Commander Arcus}} (Aldor)
  +
**** [[Quest:The Deadliest Trap Ever Laid (Scryer)]] / {{Quest|The Deadliest Trap Ever Laid (Aldor)|(Aldor)}} (+500 Reputation)
  +
  +
===Exalted===
  +
* [[Quest:Bow to the Highlord]]
  +
** [[Quest:Lord Illidan Stormrage]] (+1000 Reputation)
  +
[[Image:Netherdrake choice noPC.JPG|thumb|Choosing a Nether Drake mount in the [[Lower City]].]]
  +
Players may then talk with the six Netherwing drakes standing next to [[Barthamus]] in the [[Lower City]] of [[Shattrath City|Shattrath]]. The mount rewarded depends on which drake the player talks to:
  +
*[[Quest:Jorus the Cobalt Netherwing Drake]] rewards {{loot|epic|Reins of the Cobalt Netherwing Drake}}
  +
*[[Quest:Malfas the Purple Netherwing Drake]] rewards {{loot|epic|Reins of the Purple Netherwing Drake}}
  +
*[[Quest:Onyxien the Onyx Netherwing Drake]] rewards {{loot|epic|Reins of the Onyx Netherwing Drake}}
  +
*[[Quest:Suraku the Azure Netherwing Drake]] rewards {{loot|epic|Reins of the Azure Netherwing Drake}}
  +
*[[Quest:Voranaku the Violet Netherwing Drake]] rewards {{loot|epic|Reins of the Violet Netherwing Drake}}
  +
*[[Quest:Zoya the Veridian Netherwing Drake]] rewards {{loot|epic|Reins of the Veridian Netherwing Drake}}
  +
  +
It is not possible to choose the exact color drake which is used for the mounted Fel Orc costume; it is a combination of the Cobalt, Purple, and Violet color choices. However, all drakes will change into this special coloration upon entering Netherwing Ledge thereafter.
  +
  +
===Additional quests===
  +
A few quests become available from items that drop from mobs on the island.
  +
  +
Starting at {{reputation|neutral}} after completing [[Quest:Enter the Taskmaster]], [[Arvoar the Rapacious]] will drop the {{loot|common|Partially Digested Hand}} as loot, which starts the quest [[Quest:A Job Unfinished...]] (+250 Reputation)
  +
  +
The Black Blood of Draenors and Draenor Blood Terrors in the [[Netherwing Mines]] drop {{loot|common|Sludge-Covered Object|Sludge-Covered Objects}}. Starting at {{reputation|friendly}} reputation after completing [[Quest:The Netherwing Mines]], opening these may reveal the {{loot|common|Murkblood Escape Plans}}. This item leads to the following questline:
  +
* [[Quest:The Great Murkblood Revolt]] (+350 Reputation)
  +
** [[Quest:Seeker of Truth]] (+500 Reputation)

Players begin at 0/36000 {{reputation|hated}} with Netherwing, and must be {{reputation|exalted}} to obtain a [[Netherwing drake mounts|Nether Drake]] mount. The quest chain/reputation grind is a mostly solo endeavor involving [[daily quest]]s, one 5-person group quest on the way to {{reputation|neutral}}, and a daily 3-person group quest once reaching {{reputation|revered}}. A [[flying mount]] is required for this reputation grind, and 300 [[riding]] skill is necessary to advance past {{reputation|neutral}}. Netherwing is one of the only factions in the game where players do not lose reputation by attacking and killing its members.

| body = Ok. So, the list of fixed bugs for Vanish is a pretty long one, but I managed to find what I'm looking for.<br />
  
   
  +
Ignoring both the egg quest and the [[human]] racial reputation bonus, the fastest reputation progression possible by completing the daily quests is:
−
In the post on General I just locked about this topic, I stated that this wasn't actually broken. Current information says that isn't entirely true.<br />
  
   
  +
*{{Reputation|Neutral}} by the end of day 1.
−
The circumstances in which Vanish will break from attacks is a matter of timing that is difficult to reproduce and isolate in terms of actual coding. The last word I have from some of the programmers is that it this mechanic will not work 100% at the time and we will continue to push the status of the bug to future patches, which means we are aware of it until something arises that can shed new light on a complete solution.<br />
  
  +
*{{Reputation|Friendly}} by the end of day 2.
  +
*{{Reputation|Honored}} by the end of day 4.
  +
*{{Reputation|Revered}} by the end of day 7.
  +
*{{Reputation|Exalted}} by the end of day 14.
   
  +
Completing [[Quest:Accepting All Eggs]] can significantly reduce the total number of days needed to reach {{reputation|exalted}}. Some have reported getting there in three to four days.
−
Apologies for the confusion.

Since the end of Burning Crusade, there are far fewer people doing these quests, resulting in far more eggs lying around, making it that much easier to get exalted.
−
Currently (as of 6/Dec/2007) Vanish bugs are the following (those can randomly happen):
  
−
* You perform Vanish but still the enemy is able to hit you even if you aren't affected by [[DoT]]
  
−
* You perform Vanish while a pet is chasing you and still it's able to follow/attack you
  
−
* You perform Vanish and mobs keep on attacking you even if you aren't affected by DoT
  
−
* You perform Vanish while being in [[Stealth]] mode and Vanish breaks Stealth
  
−
* You perform Vanish both in a desert (no other players/mobs are near you) and/or not desert area and suddenly you lose both Vanish and Stealth status
  
−
Due to this Vanish is seen mainly as a Roots/[[Snare]] breaker in the PvP Rogue community.
  
   
  +
==Rewards==
−
Also, since [[patch 2.4.3]], some addons are causing vanish to stop working, confirmed by a Game master. This can be rectified by deleting (not just disabling) all addons.
  
  +
[[Drake Dealer Hurlunk]] sells additional [[Netherwing drake mounts|Nether Drake]] mounts to players who are {{reputation|exalted}} with the Netherwing at the [[Dragonmaw Base Camp]]. (These prices are at exalted status, you do not get a further discount from the listed {{cost|200}})

*Some of the racers will constantly phase in and out preventing you from interacting with them. Blizzard is currently working on a hotfix for this. [[Game Master|GMs]] can not reset the racers manually at the moment, so opening a ticket will not make them usable again earlier.

*:<GM>Harnbog suggested this temporary solution: <font class="blizztext"> "Unfortunately there is no way for us to reset these NPC's at the moment, but it is possible if there is a player with the quest you are supposed to get next, who then shares this with you in a party."</font>
−
* {{Patch 3.0.2|note=Vanish no longer requires the reagent [[Flash Powder]].}}
  
  +
*The spell effects that knock a player off during races can cause the effects while not displaying the animation visibly making for unavoidable mid-air dismounts.
−
* {{Patch 3.3.0|note=For the first half second after this ability is used, neither Vanish nor Stealth can be broken by taking damage or being the victim of a hostile spell or ability.}}
  
  +
*For the Slow Death quest, some of the peon camps are bugged and will not eat the poisoned meat. Generally, the peons in a bugged camp just stand still, doing nothing. After a peon has been disciplined using a Booterang, it also will not accept the meat. Make sure to only poison camps where at least two peons are mining to avoid wasting any Fel Glands. In addition, to avoid causing them to bug out, don't place the meat directly under a slanted crystal formation as these crystals might cause them to not have a place to stand for whatever coding is used to make them run to the meat. However, sometimes this bug can not be avoided as peons that appear to be functioning normally will not accept the mutton.
  +
*Typically, you can perform a mid-air dismount by right clicking on your mount's icon in your pet/mount box. However, since your access to the Dragonmaw Netherdrake is a buff, you will not receive it in your pet/mount box, and therefore not be able to dismount mid-air by clicking the "desummon" button of your normal mount.

The Netherwing is the main faction of the netherwing dragonflight in Outland.

Although generally hostile to most humanoids based on their treatment by the Dragonmaw clan of orcs in Shadowmoon Valley, they can be swayed to change their attitude if tasks to aid them are completed.

Quests

You can start these quests at level 70 with Expert Riding (normal flying). However, you cannot proceed on the quest chain until you have Artisan Riding (fast flying). At level 80, most of these daily quests reward about 5g, so players may wish to continue repeating them for cash even after reaching exalted.

Hated to Neutral

The quest chain begins by speaking with Neutral IconSmall HighElf Male Mordenai, who wanders the Netherwing Fields in the southeast corner of Shadowmoon Valley. Mordenai wanders around Netherwing Fields and is often fighting flayers. When he is in combat, the '!' will not be visible, making it harder to find him. To get the quest sooner, just assist him in combat. You will need a flying mount for this chain.

  1. Quest:Kindness
  2. Quest:Seek Out Neltharaku
  3. Quest:Neltharaku's Tale
  4. Quest:Infiltrating Dragonmaw Fortress
  5. Quest:To Netherwing Ledge!
  6. Quest:The Force of Neltharaku
  7. Quest:Karynaku
  8. Quest:Zuluhed the Whacked
  9. Quest:Ally of the Netherwing (+42000 reputation)

Note: The quests in the Hated-to-Neutral chain are not daily quests. These are one-time-only quests that upon completion bring your reputation with the Netherwing up from hated to neutral. It is not possible to start the daily quests before this entire chain is completed.

The +42000 reputation for Ally of the Netherwing is not subject to the human +10% reputation bonus. However, it is subject to the Spirit of Sharing buff at present. It is also subject to any guild-based reputation bonuses you may have.

Neutral to Friendly

Netherwing Egg

Netherwing Egg

The questline resumes by speaking with Mordenai, 300 riding skill and a flying mount are required to continue. Players who accept the introduction quest have Mordenai use the Dragonflight's magic on them to appear as a fel orc riding a nether drake while in the vicinity of Dragonmaw Fortress and Netherwing Ledge. This makes all fel orcs in the region excluding Dragonmaw Ascendants, Dragonmaw Skybreakers and Dragonmaw Transporters appear friendly to the player. The fake mount provides the same speed bonus as the real thing, giving a nice preview of what all the hard work is for.

Players who do not have at least one gathering profession will be unable to complete the gathering based daily quests and so are at a slight disadvantage to players who do have a gathering skill. The Black Blood of Draenor mob found within the nearby mines drops Inv ore feliron 01 [Sludge-Covered Object] that has a chance to contain any of the gathered items, but without a gathering profession, the related quests do not appear.

Friendly to Honored

Players receive a trinket that summons a combat pet while in Shadowmoon valley and open up an additional 3 daily quests. Earlier repeatable quests are still available.

Honored to Revered

Players receive an upgraded trinket, allowing them to summon a combat pet in all zones. All previous repeatable quests are still available and another daily quest as well as the Dragonmaw Races become available.

Revered to Exalted

Players receive yet another upgrade to the trinket, this time adding 45 stamina, and open up a daily group quest. All earlier repeatable quests are still available. The questline after Hail, Commander! depends on which of the Shattrath City factions players are allied with.

Exalted

File:Netherdrake choice noPC.JPG

Choosing a Nether Drake mount in the Lower City.

Players may then talk with the six Netherwing drakes standing next to Barthamus in the Lower City of Shattrath. The mount rewarded depends on which drake the player talks to:

It is not possible to choose the exact color drake which is used for the mounted Fel Orc costume; it is a combination of the Cobalt, Purple, and Violet color choices. However, all drakes will change into this special coloration upon entering Netherwing Ledge thereafter.

Additional quests

A few quests become available from items that drop from mobs on the island.

Starting at neutral after completing Quest:Enter the Taskmaster, Arvoar the Rapacious will drop the [Partially Digested Hand] as loot, which starts the quest Quest:A Job Unfinished... (+250 Reputation)

The Black Blood of Draenors and Draenor Blood Terrors in the Netherwing Mines drop [Sludge-Covered Objects]. Starting at friendly reputation after completing Quest:The Netherwing Mines, opening these may reveal the [Murkblood Escape Plans]. This item leads to the following questline:

Players begin at 0/36000 hated with Netherwing, and must be exalted to obtain a Nether Drake mount. The quest chain/reputation grind is a mostly solo endeavor involving daily quests, one 5-person group quest on the way to neutral, and a daily 3-person group quest once reaching revered. A flying mount is required for this reputation grind, and 300 riding skill is necessary to advance past neutral. Netherwing is one of the only factions in the game where players do not lose reputation by attacking and killing its members.

Ignoring both the egg quest and the human racial reputation bonus, the fastest reputation progression possible by completing the daily quests is:

Completing Quest:Accepting All Eggs can significantly reduce the total number of days needed to reach exalted. Some have reported getting there in three to four days.

Since the end of Burning Crusade, there are far fewer people doing these quests, resulting in far more eggs lying around, making it that much easier to get exalted.

Rewards

Drake Dealer Hurlunk sells additional Nether Drake mounts to players who are exalted with the Netherwing at the Dragonmaw Base Camp. (These prices are at exalted status, you do not get a further discount from the listed 200g)

Drake Dealer Hurlunk/Items

Known bugs

  • Some of the racers will constantly phase in and out preventing you from interacting with them. Blizzard is currently working on a hotfix for this. GMs can not reset the racers manually at the moment, so opening a ticket will not make them usable again earlier.
    <GM>Harnbog suggested this temporary solution: "Unfortunately there is no way for us to reset these NPC's at the moment, but it is possible if there is a player with the quest you are supposed to get next, who then shares this with you in a party."
  • The spell effects that knock a player off during races can cause the effects while not displaying the animation visibly making for unavoidable mid-air dismounts.
  • For the Slow Death quest, some of the peon camps are bugged and will not eat the poisoned meat. Generally, the peons in a bugged camp just stand still, doing nothing. After a peon has been disciplined using a Booterang, it also will not accept the meat. Make sure to only poison camps where at least two peons are mining to avoid wasting any Fel Glands. In addition, to avoid causing them to bug out, don't place the meat directly under a slanted crystal formation as these crystals might cause them to not have a place to stand for whatever coding is used to make them run to the meat. However, sometimes this bug can not be avoided as peons that appear to be functioning normally will not accept the mutton.
  • Typically, you can perform a mid-air dismount by right clicking on your mount's icon in your pet/mount box. However, since your access to the Dragonmaw Netherdrake is a buff, you will not receive it in your pet/mount box, and therefore not be able to dismount mid-air by clicking the "desummon" button of your normal mount. You can still right click the buff however to disable it. Note that this only occurs when you are under the buff, not the when you own the actual Nether Drake.
  • Gaining or losing the Dragonmaw Illusion Buff bugs the visuals of the priest spell Spell shadow shadowform [Shadowform]. While flying into Netherwing Ledge/Dragonmaw Fortress in Spell shadow shadowform [Shadowform], your character loses the dark purple shade and you only look semi-transparent with a purple glow effect. Removing and re-casting Spell shadow shadowform [Shadowform] fixes this.
  • There are a few Netherbrush nodes and Nethercite nodes that are on the shattered islands around the Netherwing Ledge that players cannot get, because being as far out as the nodes are removes the Fel Orc costume.
  • Sometimes the script does not recognize that you are on daily quests and you cannot do them (for example, you smash a peon with your Inv boots chain 01 [Booterang] but it does not count, and also quest items will not drop). Dropping the quest and picking it up again often fixes the problem.
  • During "The Not-so Friendly Skies", the Dragonmaw Transporters can become bugged and Evade attacks; sometimes they even begin swimming in the sky. Killing the "swimming" Transporter will reset this mob.
  • Warlocks with a pet out may automatically have their pet dismissed whenever they use their flying mount, and the warning will be given that "You already have an active summon".
  • If you disconnect while carrying your Dragonmaw Illusion buff, some NPCs may be seen as hostile, but will not attack. This is largely positive, but it also prevents quest turn-ins. Flying out (to lose the buff) and flying back (to get it again) should resolve this.
