I've spent at LEAST 3 hours over the last 3 days trying to get this quest done. I havent been able to, I cant get to mobs, or folks steal my mob while i'm swinging at it by 'subdueing' it while my swing hits it below that 15% or so it has to be at to subdue it.

So, I'm sick of this quest, and am hoping to delete it, Am I going to be screwing myself out of follow up quests ?. Anyone remember if i'm going to miss out on a bunch of follow up quests ?

I don't think that particular npc has any further quests after that one. Move on and come back to it later, it's not worth the aggravation.

It's a dead end quest, just experience.

If a quest isn't flagged as a world mystery, you won't be hurting yourself to skip it. Every character I've done that quest with has problems with people trying to steal the mobs. I just yell at them until they get tired of me and go away. Got to fill my time between respawns somehow.
