[edit] Description
The Black Moa is a charmable Moa Bird that achieved legendary status among Kurzicks. The bird has coal black feathers, blood red eyes and spiked bracers around its legs and neck. This bird allegedly assaulted four young men who were traveling in Ferndale. So bloody and terrifying was the assault that most of them could not even remember where it actually took place.
Finding and dealing with the elusive, mysterious, cunning, devious and despicable Black Moa is the objective of the quest The Beak of Darkness. Oddly enough, there are sometimes two Black Moas roaming in the same area, contrasting with the quest and many people's belief that there is only one.
[edit] Location
- The Black Moa can be charmed and will provide a unique statue in the Monument of Fellowship.
- Approaching Nehdukah and his company in Plains of Jarin with a Black Moa will cause them to shout certain phrases and run in terror.
- After finishing the quests, the Black Moa will still be there and can be captured.
- The Black Moa can be renamed but the ally list will still refer to it as a Black Moa for the first time you capture it.
- This pet has an automatic "Elder" level evolution when charmed.
- There are two ways to get a level 20 Dire or Hearty Black Moa. You must first place the level 20 Elder Black Moa in the Zaishen Menagerie (this requires charming it.) You can then ask Wynn to spawn a level 15 Dire or Hearty Black Moa, train it to level 20, and put it back in the Menagerie. Alternatively, you could pay Helena 3 Silver Zaishen Coins and 100
or 2,000 Balthazar Faction to unlock the Dire and Hearty characteristics.
[edit] Trivia
- Nehdukah claims Zho lost her left eye to a Black Moa while he was saving her from its grasp. Zho confirms she lost her eye to the Black Moa in her journal and in an idle quote on Shing Jea Island.
