Sasha’s Hunt

Quest Giver: Sasha — White Pine Trading Post, Grizzly Hills [57, 41]

Objective: Kill 12 Solstice Hunters in Solstice Village.

Quick Facts

• Location: Solstice Village [62, 42] (east of White Pine Trading Post)
• Pairs With: Anatoly Will Talk (both from Sasha, both in Solstice Village)

Walkthrough

• Head east from White Pine Trading Post to Solstice Village [62, 42]. The village is a palisade-walled trapper settlement on a hill, now fully corrupted by the Wolfcult.
• Kill 12 Solstice Hunters inside the village. They’re level 74-75 humanoids scattered throughout the settlement alongside wolves.
• Worgen transformation: The Solstice Hunters start as human trappers but transform into worgen when their health drops low. This doesn’t change their difficulty much, but be aware they gain new melee abilities in worgen form. Don’t be surprised when the human you’re fighting suddenly sprouts fur.
• The village is relatively compact with decent mob density. Pulling one or two at a time is manageable for at-level characters. There are roughly 24 spawns, so respawns shouldn’t be an issue even with other players in the area.

Efficiency Tips

• Do Alongside: Grab Anatoly Will Talk before heading to Solstice Village. While you’re killing your 12 Hunters, you can locate Tatjana on her horse near [62, 42] and handle both quests in one trip. Complete the 12 kills first, then dart Tatjana and ride the horse back for a cleaner quest flow.
• Complete this before Anatoly Will Talk. Turning in Anatoly Will Talk triggers a scripted event and unlocks the next quest, A Sister’s Pledge. Finishing Sasha’s Hunt first means you can turn both in back-to-back without a second trip.
• The Solstice Hunters use ranged abilities (Multi-Shot, traps, stings) in human form, so closing distance quickly helps reduce incoming damage. Once they shift to worgen form, they switch to melee.

Lore Context

Sasha’s dialogue here is personal. She acknowledges that these corrupted trappers were once her neighbors in Silverbrook, people her father Mikhail tried to warn before the Wolfcult killed him. She doesn’t take satisfaction in the killing, only sees it as necessary. Her completion text says it plainly: killing them won’t bring her father back, but that’s not the point.

The Solstice Hunters’ worgen transformation mid-fight is a gameplay demonstration of what the Wolfcult does to people: ordinary trappers who can shift into beasts at will. Unlike Gilnean worgen, these transformations were forced by Arugal’s magic at the Lich King’s command.
