Tiger Musk
Tiger musk is a vial from collected tiger scent. To obtain this, all you need to do is slain numerous Tigers that can be found in Dragon Stand or verdant Brink. Eventually, the item will be dropped. However, it is quite rare to get it in first try. So, highly possible you should camp on the spot and wait for the respawn. You don’t have to worry though. The respawn time is quick enough.

Hunter’s Bane
Many people that this part collections is one of the most bugged part. You can say that you may have to be patient every time attempting to finish the mission.

So, basically you are a body guard to protect the Silent Snowfall or ice raking. The thing is, this event is considered as part of meta event. At the same time, the largo assassin has a very low HP. That means you should tag along quickly to prevent died and get the credit from it.
What make the collection mission is bugged is the fact that the previous meta chain mission (Escort the Quaggan emissary to the Kodan camp) is also bugged. Quite often it stuck due to Bleepdoop pathing issues.
Let’s take the positive side. Assuming there won’t be any bug or the bug have been fixed, the mission goes by you do all the pre-events. As you finish mission stand and wait in the marked spot so you can quickly tag the Largos assassin when the event pops up.
