When you gather foxflower, sometimes a Frenzied Fox will spawn. It runs around and puts little flowers on the ground. While on this quest, you need to get one of the foxes to spawn, and then run over the flowers to get credit for "gathering" the chewed foxflower bits. Once you get the rank 3 of foxflower gathering, you can run over those flowers to get extra foxflower from the node, I was noticing about 25-30 extra herbs when the fox spawned. Currently the text for the rank three says that the fox will fight alongside you though, so I am not sure which will end up staying.

Edit: This may have been fixed, as per UnholyoneSP's comment below.

Be advised that the Sky Golem mount MAY mess with this quest.
Edit: Two incidents of this - submitting a bug report now. We're pretty sure that the Sky Golem does in fact mess with the quest.

I picked lots and lots of Foxflowers after receiving this quest, and no fox spawned.
Dismounted, boom, fox on the first flower picked.

Very little data to go on, but other people in the same situation might try dismounting before picking flowers.
Could be RNG, could be a bug.

If anyone has gotten a fox to spawn while mounted, please share and downvote this into oblivion :)

Confirming for druid shapeshifting bug, shift out before farming herb to have fox spawn.

评论来自 SnailedIt

What I ended up doing was sitting on one node and letting it get to about 90% gathering before I took a step and cancel it. After 5 attempts the fox spawned. Hope this helps.

Uhm... maybe a minor point but.. how do we do this quest? It just says to find the culprit and doesn't show up anywhere on any map.

评论来自 Dreanys

It it looks like a fox, smells like a fox (dude, they stink), barks like a fox, yiffs like a fox..it's probably a moose, right, Kuhuine?

评论来自 Aluregeek20

thank you for this, i am a druid that was in boomkin shape shift form n on the skygolem. I wants getting it and was confused. After your post took me about 8 or 9 picks and i got it, thank so much

评论来自 ktreaster

all of the above comments have nothing to do with the actual quest. Does anyone have any ideas how to find the creature or the chewed foxflower bits? I've been out here for a bit and haven't gotten any. Thank you

This quest is started from looting 被咬过的狐尾花根茎, a rare drop from any Foxflower node native to Highmountain, after already obtaining 草药学技术：狐尾花（等级 1）, and starts the quest 细齿咬痕 to return to your herbalism trainer before you receive this quest.

To complete the quest, you must loot Foxflower nodes until you see a friendly fox, Frenzied Fox spawn that makes an audible howl then runs around, dropping flowers in its wake which you must collect (you may have already seen one spawn previously from Foxflower nodes -- it's the same one, and gives you lots of 狐尾花 too).

Once completed, you are rewarded with 草药学技术：狐尾花（等级 2） which allows you to occasionally find 萨格拉斯之血 inside future Foxflower nodes. You then have the chance to find 狐尾花臭腺 instead which starts 火眼精睛 to unlock the next rank, 草药学技术：狐尾花（等级 3）, and is also part of the prerequisite to obtain 翡翠梦魇：邪能球茎精通 for 草药学技术：邪能球茎（等级 3） (rank 2 in all Legion herbs).

If you are using some kind of server jump addon, there is bad news for you - this quest is not tagged as "raid". So you will need either to find it on your own realm, or jump only into "party". Also gl with that, because nearly every party turns into raid in matter of seconds.

评论来自 smange

Also, if you're a hunter and have pets out, dismiss them.

评论来自 zhagata

If someone else is looting foxflower node and gets creature spawn - while on quest - you can gather chewed bits too!

评论来自 Squeesher

If by some chance you miss the fox (Sky Golem, someone else's fox pops next to you and you aren't paying attention, too many beers and you aren't paying attention), you can safely abandon the quest and it will be available again in Dalaran. No need to find the quest item again.

评论来自 priapus

Surprised no one mentioned this in the comments after a month but Highmountain is the place to farm Foxflower.

评论来自 Lloop

Simple One..

Start picking in hightmountan and then a little red fox will come out and drop flowers. You need 12 of them... follow the fox and get the flowers... real easy... just pick until the fox pops out.. then turn it back in at Dalaran.. "?"
I got my fox at 41.94, 48.63 next to the water in the Elderhorn and Prowler area..

Definitely most high-maintenance quest I've been on. Tried everything in the comments above -- dismounted, dismissed demon, tried backing off of the herb and herbing it repeatedly. Nothing worked. Went and abandoned the quest and tried again, still not working.

Pretty much gave up on it and was just herbing normally, then got it completely random on the shore just north of the Prepfoot flight location.

So basically a major WoW annoyance, one of many, but at least it's over now.

评论来自 Sarthorius

OF all things, this quest was horrible on my side, I didn't even notice the first part of it dinging, asking about Find out what creature is eating the Foxflower. Nothing on the chat, no nothing. I had decided to go on the northern part, since the nesingwary ones are too scattered, but on the north you can easily miss a small fox in the misty area, and trying to get rid of those pesky murlocs too.

评论来自 sasaran

after weeks of trying, it finally happened!

Highmountain. 48.3, 10.7

评论来自 Ezmaralda

IMHO this Herbalism Quest line is total BS. Who on God's Green Earth wants to spend 50+ hours to gain 1 level in Herbalism? I am definitely considering quitting my 11 year sub over this. WTF is Blizz thinking?

评论来自 namenottaken

Don't try to do this quest at the same time as a different quest that requires farming foxflower. The foxes for don't seem to spawn for 追踪元凶 while you're on the alchemist quest 互惠互利 for example.

评论来自 Woundheir

All the people complaining it took weeks, and it only took me 15 minutes...

评论来自 Xploiter

I spend about 15min to this fox show up, not every foxflower you gather will make it appear, so you must get herbs till have lucky; i got mine at 43.4,24.4.

评论来自 garyb

I appreciated the info here. I got the fox to spawn at 39 47.2 but I specifically picked the flower unmounted.

评论来自 Hecatate68

Got mine to spawn at 47.2 43.0. Once he spawns easy quest to do...the trouble is finding the "right" flower...lol

评论来自 srebabygirl

I got mine to finally spawn after 38 tries and after trying the river as suggested by someone else and not being on a mount as well. It was at 49, 32 (it is a matter of it being the "right" flower). Sadly he did not stay still long enough for my to try to stomp him on the head after all the trouble :(

评论来自 Gimroth

I had my face in my palm throughout the whole time I was doing this quest. At least the quest giver admitted her... brainfart.

评论来自 dcawdell

I broke my quest. No idea why. But being rare, I kept picking for a week, with no joy.

I dropped & reacquired the quest and got the fox on the first pick...thank goodness that is done !

评论来自 jam5158

Got mine at 44-31 in the Witchwood area after about 6 picks. Unmounted so not sure if that made a difference or not.

评论来自 Therook

Consider not turning in the quest immediately. I farmed Foxflower awhile after seeing the Fox and getting enough to complete the quest. The Fox showed up again and dropped flowers so I got even more Foxflower.

评论来自 Tannarah

Spent 4 hrs farming this little elusive monster! 4 HOURS! UGGGHHHHH

评论来自 alohaitsjeff

Got mine on the third try in High Mountain right near the Warden tower to the south west.

评论来自 Nessahelyan

Somehow managed to get all the bits from herbing - but never spawned the fox. (Was in flight form) Finally dropped quest and it spawned on the first click . (7.3.5)

评论来自 greencatspryte

very lucky, went to Highmountain while waiting for a raid to pop and got all in first pickup, maybe not try to farm this, just pop in and do one or a few :)

评论来自 SpareSimian

If you're having trouble finding Foxflower nodes because of competition, head to the friendly murloc beach at 57,22, at the foot of the cliff below the Prepfoot flightpoint (if you have flying). Follow the beach north and you'll find several spawns.

评论来自 TheGrandmaGamer

At the top of this page it says this quest happens in Highmountain, Suramar and Thunder Totem.

DON'T FORGET, when a quest has items to gather from multiple zones and you have all this great info to share to help other players out, be sure to say in what zone the others will find those coordinates.

评论来自 satluj

Got mine at 44,51 and that's after picking 24 foxflowers.

评论来自 ghuda

I was having a hard time with this one. I made sure I did not use the Sky Golem as many comments point out but still couldn't get the fox to pop. I tried dozens of nodes with no fox. Then I tried to remove all my equipment and on the very first node I tried, the fox popped and I could get all of my 12 chewed foxflowers.

评论来自 Caecillius

And it still works to this day - first attempt, see comment by mrldragon on 2016/10/19 (Patch 7.0.3)

评论来自 fendred

For anyone coming back to this for profession achievements;

As many other comments point out all you need to do is go back to Highmountain and continue herbing Foxflowers until you get a fox to spawn, then run over 12 of the little flowers it drops (they drop about 15-20 so one spawn is more than enough to complete quest).

Adding my comment to also confirm that I had no problem getting foxes to spawn using a Sky Golem. In fact my second node on this quest spawned a fox and got it done, all while mounted.
