Reefhunter's Reckoning
  • Value:
  • Burden:
  • A puzzle given to you by a statue outside of the Moarsman Gateway Temple.
During the Tidal Surge, the hunters set forth with their nets to capture the Reefshark and bring food to the city. They captured 252 Reefsharks for the pens. For every 7 Reefsharks captured 2 were slaughtered to feed the ravenous Brood Mothers. Of the remaining Reefsharks, 1 out of every 6 were sacrificed to the Whispering One, may he bless us with his wisdom.

Know the number of Reefsharks left to feed the city and you shall know where to place the staff.

Notes

  • The answer to this riddle is 150.
    252 * 5/7 = 180 (Total number of spawn, times by the fraction that survived)
    180 * 5/6 = 150 (Total number of spawn that survived left multiplied by the fraction that survive the second time. Make sure you
    work out the amount surviving, not the amount dying!)
