SWTOR Arctic Nerf Calf Location Guide
This SWTOR guide will help you locate and obtain a Arctic Nerf Calf pet, as well as completing the achievement "Who's Scruffy Looking".
Starting coordinates: 80, -1073.
To start this quest, you have to find a Nerf Herder Guide. The location of this is a bit out of the way in the Glacial Fissure.
At a lone little hut you will find the Guide Datapad. Pick it up (13 sec cast) and you will receive a buff called "Understanding of Nerfs" that will last 60 min. You have to complete your search within this time, or you have to start over again.
Now you have to find some food that can be found in several locations. You will be notified when a plant is within your vicinity. (You only need one plant)
#1 is located in the west of Glacial Fissure between the Republic and Imperial Outpost.
#2 is located in the Crescent Canyon north of Jagged Plains Imperial Garrison in Clabburn Tundra.
The Frozen Plant will be transferred to your inventory and is in need of thawing.
Travel to the Volcanic Trench in Glacial Fissure. You will be given the notice that the Frozen Plant you are carrying is beginning to thaw. Climb the side of the volcanic mound directly below the bridge in the north.
The Frozen Plant will be transformed into a Thawed Plant in your inventory.
The Nerf Calves themselves are located in the Glacial Fissure, directly south of Outpost Senth. There are two ways to get there. From the north, which is a bit tricky, but short and through a Heroic Area (friendly for Republic Players, enemies for Imperial Players), or from the south which is easy, but longer travel (I recommend this one, if you aren't a confident jumper).
Short Path:
Run up through the Heroic Area to the snow-covered hills in the back.
Use a mount to climb the hill. This is the tricky part, so be patient or go the long way around.
Long Path:
Follow the snow-covered ridge all the way north where you might pass the Legendary Wampa, which is part of the Hoth's Most Wanted achievement.
Simply feed it and the pet will be transferred to your inventory.
Once you have found all three, you will receive the Legacy Title "Nerf Herder" as well as 10x Art Decorations for your Stronghold. The three Nerf Calves will not be shared in your Legacy and therefore have to be collected on each character you want them on.
