Netherwing

The Netherwing, sometimes called the Netherwing dragonflight,Blood Oath of the NetherwingAlly of the Netherwing are the main faction of the nether dragons in Outland.
Although generally hostile to most humanoids based on their treatment by the Dragonmaw clan of orcs in Shadowmoon Valley, they can be swayed to change their attitude if tasks to aid them are completed.
==Faction description==
This unusual brood of dragons was spawned from the eggs of Deathwing's black dragonflight, and infused with raw nether-energies. Now, they seek to find their identity beyond the shadows of their father's destructive heritage.
===Hated to Neutral===
The quest chain begins by speaking with Mordenai, who wanders the Netherwing Fields in the southeast corner of Shadowmoon Valley and is often fighting flayers. When he is in combat, the quest marker will not be visible, making it harder to find him. To get the quest sooner, just assist him in combat. You will need a flying mount for this chain.

Note: The quests in the Hated-to-Neutral chain are not daily quests. These are one-time-only quests that upon completion bring your reputation with the Netherwing up from to . It is not possible to start the daily quests before this entire chain is completed.
The +42000 reputation for Ally of the Netherwing is not subject to the human +10% reputation bonus. However, it is subject to the Spirit of Sharing buff at present. It is also subject to any guild-based reputation bonuses you may have.
If you have Diplomacy or another reputation buff, you can go from to instead from to .

The questline resumes by speaking with Mordenai, 300 riding skill and a flying mount are required to continue. Players who accept the introduction quest have Mordenai use the Dragonflight's magic on them to appear as a fel orc riding a nether drake while in the vicinity of Dragonmaw Fortress and Netherwing Ledge. This makes all fel orcs in the region excluding Dragonmaw Ascendants, Dragonmaw Skybreakers and Dragonmaw Transporters appear friendly to the player. The fake mount provides the same speed bonus as the real thing, giving a nice preview of what all the hard work is for.

Players who do not have at least one gathering profession will be unable to complete the gathering based daily quests and so are at a slight disadvantage to players who do have a gathering skill. The Black Blood of Draenor mob found within the nearby mines drops Sludge-Covered Object that has a chance to contain any of the gathered items, but without a gathering profession, the related quests do not appear.

Players begin at 0/36000 with Netherwing, and must be to obtain a Nether Drake mount. The quest chain/reputation grind is a mostly solo endeavor involving daily quests, one 5-person group quest on the way to , and a daily 3-person group quest once reaching . A flying mount is required for this reputation grind, and 300 riding skill is necessary to advance past . Netherwing is one of the only factions in the game where players do not lose reputation by attacking and killing its members.
Ignoring both the egg quest and the human racial reputation bonus, the fastest reputation progression possible by completing the daily quests is:
* by the end of day 1.
* by the end of day 2.
* by the end of day 4.
* by the end of day 7.
* by the end of day 14.
Completing Accepting All Eggs can significantly reduce the total number of days needed to reach . Some have reported getting there in three to four days.
Since the end of Burning Crusade, there are far fewer people doing these quests, resulting in far more eggs lying around, making it that much easier to get exalted.
==Rewards==
Drake Dealer Hurlunk sells additional Nether Drake mounts to players who are with the Netherwing at the Dragonmaw Base Camp. (These prices are at exalted status, you do not get a further discount from the listed )
==Known bugs==
*Some of the racers will constantly phase in and out preventing you from interacting with them. Blizzard is currently working on a hotfix for this. GMs cannot reset the racers manually at the moment, so opening a ticket will not make them usable again earlier.
*:<GM>Harnbog suggested this temporary solution: "Unfortunately there is no way for us to reset these NPCs at the moment, but it is possible if there is a player with the quest you are supposed to get next, who then shares this with you in a party."
*The spell effects that knock a player off during races can cause the effects while not displaying the animation visibly making for unavoidable mid-air dismounts.
*For the Slow Death quest, some of the peon camps are bugged and will not eat the poisoned meat. Generally, the peons in a bugged camp just stand still, doing nothing. After a peon has been disciplined using a Booterang, it also will not accept the meat. Make sure to only poison camps where at least two peons are mining to avoid wasting any Fel Glands. In addition, to avoid causing them to bug out, don't place the meat directly under a slanted crystal formation as these crystals might cause them to not have a place to stand for whatever coding is used to make them run to the meat. However, sometimes this bug cannot be avoided as peons that appear to be functioning normally will not accept the mutton.
*Typically, you can perform a mid-air dismount by right clicking on your mount's icon in your pet/mount box. However, since your access to the Dragonmaw Netherdrake is a buff, you will not receive it in your pet/mount box, and therefore not be able to dismount mid-air by clicking the "desummon" button of your normal mount. You can still right click the buff however to disable it. Note that this only occurs when you are under the buff, not the when you own the actual Nether Drake.
*Gaining or losing the Dragonmaw Illusion Buff bugs the visuals of the priest spell Shadowform. While flying into Netherwing Ledge/Dragonmaw Fortress in Shadowform, your character loses the dark purple shade and you only look semi-transparent with a purple glow effect. Removing and re-casting Shadowform fixes this.
*There are a few Netherbrush nodes and Nethercite nodes that are on the shattered islands around the Netherwing Ledge that players cannot get, because being as far out as the nodes are removes the Fel Orc costume.
*Sometimes the script does not recognize that you are on daily quests and you cannot do them (for example, you smash a peon with your Booterang but it does not count, and also quest items will not drop). Dropping the quest and picking it up again often fixes the problem.
*During "The Not-so Friendly Skies", the Dragonmaw Transporters can become bugged and Evade attacks; sometimes they even begin swimming in the sky. Killing the "swimming" Transporter will reset this mob.
*Warlocks with a pet out may automatically have their pet dismissed whenever they use their flying mount, and the warning will be given that "You already have an active summon".
*If you disconnect while carrying your Dragonmaw Illusion buff, some NPCs may be seen as hostile, but will not attack. This is largely positive, but it also prevents quest turn-ins. Flying out (to lose the buff) and flying back (to get it again) should resolve this.
==Notes==
*Despite there being several Nether Drakonid in the form of Or'kaos the Insane and the Dragonmaw Ascendants, there are no Nether drakonid that are affiliated with the Netherwing.
**Several Wyrmrest Protectors can appear using Nether Drakonid appearances; though it is never stated if they are affiliated with the Netherwing as the Netherwing do not interact with the Wyrmrest Accord.
*An alternate finale involving Toranaku and Or'kaos was cut.
