Go back to Mordenai and turn the quest in. Free 5 dragons and return to Neltheraku. Now, the next steps consist in hard faction work. However to be able to get to the next part, you need to have 300 riding skill (fast mount). NEUTRAL to FRIENDLY (Day 1)
The Netherwing Egg drops of any mob/deposit/bush on Netherwing Ledge as rare drops. However they also spawn themselves all over the island, especially inside the mines. They look like this:
You are not obliged to find one, but it gives you 250 extra reputation, which is quite nice. (so try!)

------------------ 2 x Felsteel Bar
_____________________ As you might have already guessed, this is a new daily quest and you should try to do this every day as this quest gives really nice reputation. However I didn't include it in a specific order into the daily quest path as you might get troubles finding people to do this quest with, so just do it whenever it suits you and whenever you find the players to do it with. After completing this quest you should be 1425 points into Revered.
Congratulations, you are now poud owner of a Netherwing mount! Also you made about 3k gold in the process

I found this guide very helpful, ezscpecially in making sure i didnt miss any extra quests like finding the note in slime etc...
Also want to mention i got the netherwing quests done in 6 days, thanks to handing in over 55 eggs. I found that going on line before i went to work at about 6 in morning, i could do a fast run thro mine and find a good 7 eggs. I did it at a lvl 75 warrior, and soloed all the quests.
Lot's of grinding
Is there any chance there is a place you can kill mobs and get rep by grinding thos?

Note: This post was supposed to be a response to the "Deadliest Trap" post below. Not sure what happened when I logged in.
I'm sure you've figured it out by now but for the sake of those who follow (i.e. "that would be me" about a week ago):
As a level 80 Death Knight this quest is really easy. I've done the quest 4 times now and my health has never fallen below 75%. Some of the dragons fly really low to the ground (almost landing but the wings are still flapping) and you can attack them quite easily. They seem to be immune to Death Grip so I just end up running from one to the next. I also usually bring out the Army of the Dead and my ghoul and little fighting dragon at the beginning ... not that it's necessary, just fun to see them all fighting on your behalf
. I've never found it necessary to hide by the flightmaster ... and Captain (Commander?) Hobb has never even come close to dying.

This reply was supposed to be in response to "The Deadliest Trap ever Laid -- as a Death Knight". Something must have happened when I logged in? Sorry for the confusion!

Level 80
At level 80 raising rep with Netherwing is alot quicker. On day 3 i'm currently 6,000 exp into revered. Also at 80 all the Netherwing Faction quest are soloable. So day 4 should get me to exalted taking into account if I get enough eggs. I would suggest to get a addon that shows where the eggs spawn so your not walking around aimlessly looking for them. Thanks for the great guide snowflake I followed it every step of the way!
Quest: Slow Death
The Fel Glands also drop of NetherSkate located around 70.00,67.48 or right around the R and T in Dragonmaw Fortress on your map.
My drop rate has been 100% so far.
started working on
started working on netherwing about 8 days ago. i'm already 1750 into revered. the first 2 dragon rider guys do knock you off your mount while you are racing.
with wrath out it's much easier to find netherwing eggs too. the most i've ever seen in SMV have been 15 people. and of those 15 people, 5-6 are usually leveling so you aren't competing with many for egg spawns.
The Deadliest Trap Ever Laid as death knight?
Hiya. I'm soon going to ding Honoured today, and am already feeling a little apprehensive about the racing quests already, but it's "The Deadliest Trap Ever Laid" at Revered that I'm really worried about. I've read of people using the flight master to fight for them, but as I'm level 80, it's not the fighting that's the problem, it's the fact that this quest sounds like a melee class's worst nightmare. Any tips on how to do this quest as a death knight?
Btw, kudos to this guide so far, it's been a big help.

Hi Thx for the great guide
Just want to give a tip and it is this link:

That link and this guide made me go from neutral to revered in 3 days
Epic Training
1. Is it completely necessary to have the 300 skill riding training to get exalted with the faction? I know that there are several quests that require it, but can I still get the mount (I know it would take much longer)?
2. If you do need the training would it be better to grind instances, daylies and primals in order to get 5000g at level 70, or should I go to Northrend and get the money there? This may seem a stupid question, but I would quite like to get all the experience from these quests before they are grey to me.
Administrator
It certainly will be faster
1.) Yes, I believe it is mandatory.
2.) It certainly will be faster to farm the money in northrend, however that will also mean that the quests might turn grey before you're done. It's up to you.
So you do definately need
So you do definately need the epic flying training?

As far as I can remember,
As far as I can remember, you can't even start the quest chains if you don't have it.
Need Epic Flight Beyond Neutral
What I've seen and read is that you at least need basic flight to do the starting quest chain to get to Neutral. Beyond that, you must have Artisan riding (Epic Flight), or you'll get a message reading, "You do not meet the requirements for this quest" or something like that. You do not, however, have to own an epic gryphon/wyvern; whatever flying mount you have will change into a drake when you enter the appropriate sub-areas of Shadowmoon Valley, and will give you a 280% speed boost regardless of what you normally fly.
really nice guide
nice netherwing guide
i got a tactic for the subduer quest you might wanna look at. When you get over to the place he's wandering around in, use the cannon on him, and lure him over to the not-working portal. From there go behind it and make sure his line of sight is broken. Your cannon won't stop since it's channeled and therefor you can stand still and don't get hit but still complete the quest. Sometimes the cannon stops channeling before he's done this can be saved by flying after him and start cannon before he gains health. Here's a picture about where to position you to get clear of his attacks http://i158.photobucket.com/albums/t97/Chrizzer_2007/WoWScrnShot_102808_082545.jpg
awesome
This guide is great and thorough and I'm starting it tonight when I get home from work. Two weeks is hardly any time at all! Thanks!
Hi great guide just got to
Hi
great guide just got to honored and started the racing quests but noted that the pumpkin knocked me of my mount not sure if it's just a bug or they have changed it but just want to give you heads up and save some repair money.
Wise things get said but, Few get understod
My god
Honestly,
I wanted a Drake but after seeing this grind sandwich I can honestly say that it's not worth it any more.
Maybe I'll pay a college student $10 to do it for me.

It's actually not that bad,
It's actually not that bad, you're never really grinding since you always quest, and you get a healthy amount of gold from it.
I think I made nearly 2000g while working on my Netherdrake. Not to mention, some of the quests are a lot of fun, especially the flying mount race contests you do at one point.
[70] Kill Them All! CAN BE SOLO'D
This event CAN BE SOLO'D
It's pretty simple actually. What you need to do is start the event. Aggro...5 or 6 or however many dragons and run towards the Flight Master and his bird. The dragon riders will shoot a scatter shot or even just a wide shot and hit the NPC's. They will fight for you. Just run around the building, bandage, heal, eat, drink, build a house, whatever you want/have to do.
After a bit you will complete the quest. Pretty sweet actually. I did this with a Priest. I know anyone can do it.
Good Luck.
Netherwing eggs give +250, not +350 rep :-)
Just checked now to be 100% sure. Netherwing eggs give +250 rep. and not +350. Still nice, but makes the egg-hunting less desireable maybe :|

It took me 6 days to get exalted because I found between 20-25 eggs each day
There are 9 spawns in the Dragonmaw fortress ans alot of eggs at the entrance of the mines. Just log on on the morning before any1 is there
What time does the server reset?
What time does the server reset. I thought it was 5am server but they were all gone when I tried. Is it 3am server?
Reset Time Varies by Realm
It's different for each server, but always in the early morning hours. On my Alliance server, Ravencrest, it's officially 3:00am realm time, though in practice it's closer to 2:58.
Also, while the eggs may spawn en masse when the server resets (I'm not really sure), they spawn throughout the day as well. On at least one occasion, I found two eggs in the same spot on the same day (about three hours apart). General consensus seems to be that 5-6 eggs appear somewhere in Dragonmaw territory every hour. Being there when the server resets could help, but you'll probably also have better luck if you can search for eggs during off-peak hours, or if you can scan the area several times a day.

You need the epic flying
You need the epic flying mount if you want to do the race quests. But they are optional if I remember correctly.
You could probably go all the way to exalted with Skywing by just doing the other dailies.
However, I really recommend getting the epic flying mount as soon as you can afford it (which shouldn't take too long if you do all dailies every day and don't spend money on anything). There's a world of difference between having a 280% speed mount and a 60%...
I very much appreciate this
I very much appreciate this guide, it's very helpful.
I'd just like to say that I was dismounted in midair when hit by a pumpkin in the very first flying race quest; perhaps it's been changed? Just so you know
thx alot
I just got my netherdrake last week. This guide was very helpful.
Thanks a lot for this great
Thanks a lot for this great guide! It has been a huuuuuuuuuge help so far, especially the part with the flying quests which I have just finished

Great guide! Only the Subdue the Subduer part can be done much easier. All you got to do is kite him to the portal and hide behind the right pillar, that way he can't hit you at all, he'll just keep failing at crippling you.
After a while he'll start walking to the portal, then just follow him till the quest says complete
Great guide, very
Great guide, very thorough.
If you want to get your mount as soon as possible, follow the guide and do every quest available to you. However, I found that the Netherwing Crystal quest and (sometimes) the Netherdust Pollen quest weren't worth the small amount of rep they gave. Instead of grinding for an extra 20 Crystals after I had done everything else in the mine, I would hold onto them and finish the quest the next day. This also opens up Daily Quest slots for you to do stuff at Skettis or Ogri'la.
For the Relics, I found it easiest to stand at the dock where they take off from on the Ledge. Stand on the edge and grab the Rider shortly after he takes off. However, it is important to wait until they take off or you will pull the two menacing looking Dragonmaw Ascendants. The riders spawn at this dock, and once the currently flying riders despawn at the other end of path, you will get a constant spawn of riders every 20 or 30 seconds.

Nice guide
Using this as a base plan, then farming eggs a good bit, I got to my current point (12,875 / 21,000) in 7 days.
I haven't done the last two race quests, not do I intend to, I'll hit exalted in 3 days as long as I do the daily group quest on one of those days, and on the other I just need to earn 2550 rep (i.e all dailys except group, and either egg or gathering).
I would add that the magic number for your gathering skill level is 355, at least for skinning. Once I hit that the quest opened up. Wish I had known, I could have earned a few more days worth of 250 rep.
Really the key to a fast rep gain is farming the eggs like crazy.

Thank you Tarci, I'm currently going through it and completing it with screenshots/correcting a few errors before I completely finish it
Need some help here!!
Hi snowflake, this guide seams to be great stuff!!!!
I have now my riding skill to 300 spend 5000G jesus!!!!!!!!!!
And ofc i want my netherdrake mount, but i found mordenai and he dont give me any quest, i dont now why??? what i did was train my epic fly, and go straight to him to pick up "Kindness"!
One more thing!!! i dont know if this has something with the fact i cannot pick the Kindness quest!
" In service of the lllidari " i can not find as well.
I hope to recive a help response if possible!!!
Thx Dudes!!
Administrator
Hmm this is weird. Are you
Hmm this is weird.
Are you sure you haven't done the quest Kindness already in the past? Check the follow up quests and see if maybe you're on already on one of those, because Mordenai isn't the quest giver for all quests of this chain.
Yeh... maybe u right!
So I dont remenber well, but I think I did some Q here in the past, and I get Q from Neltharaku...and follow at least 2 more steps great! But I dont have any kind of rep with the nethers, when do I get some rep with them?? Do you know?
Thanks!
Admin's note: Fixed spelling. Please do an effort with your spelling next time. Use "I" instead of "i", and "you" instead of "u", “thanks” instead of “thx”. Thanks in advance.

Just follow the guide from
Just follow the guide from the start, step by step, and at some point you'll find the quest where you stopped last time. It's probably a quest given by Neltharaku, you should go try to talk to him.
If you fail on the Karynaku
If you fail on the Karynaku quest (the one to get her key for the shackles) it won't say you've failed ... but in order to complete it you have to abandon it and take it again when you're ready (with some help
). Perhaps this is the problem?

Not entirely done yet, will complete the rest tomorrow. I took quite some screenshots and infos from wowhead/wowwiki to do this guide and want to thank any of the authors who wrote/contributed that material. I hope it is ok to post it here in this guide.
I just wanted to say
I just wanted to say excellent guide! I also wanted to give some quick input on my experience with the dragonmaw racing quests...
1. If you are a druid, make a key binding for swift flight form (I use F1). I can switch from Night elf form to Swift Flight form and back without falling.
2. I think it's best to group with someone and then put a symbol on the racer. It makes it so much easier to follow them.
I hope this helps!
Great job once again
