Quest "Load'er Up" broken (Horde)

[cgrahamseven]

Current Behaviour

The Horde quest "Load'er Up", which is received from Fezzix Geartwist in Taunka'le village in the Borean Tundra is broken. When you accept the quest, you are given an item called Jenny's Whistle that you must take to one of six crashed flying machine sites in the scalding pools. When you reach one of the crashed flying machines, you blow the whistle and it spawns Jenny the pack mule to transport the wreckage back to Fezzix. This NPC should spawn with the Crates Carried aura with a stack of 10. If the NPC is attacked and damaged by any mobs while following you, it loses a stack of Crates Carried. If all the stacks are lost, the npc despawns and you must summon it again.

Currently, the npc does spawn when the item is used, however when any damage is taken, it immediately despawns, regardless of how many stacks of Crates Carried it has.

Expected Blizzlike Behaviour

Jenny should spawn if you use Jenny's Whistle within range of any of the six crashed flying machines in the scalding pools area of borean tundra. On summon, she should follow the player at her speed_run db value. If she is damaged by an attacking mob, she should cast spell Drop Crates and one stack of Crates Carried should be removed per hit. If she is damaged with no stacks left of Crates Carried, she should immediately despawn. If the player successfully guides her back to Fezzix in Taunka'le village, she should cast spell Give Jenny Credit on the player to complete the quest when she is within 15 meters of Fezzix. At that point she should stop following the player, walk towards Fezzix and then despawn.
