Drop rate was about 20 % for me, took about 15 minutes to get all the legs necessary

Comment by pezz

You can get them from the lower level spiders (or just buy them if you feel lazy) as well, but I don't know if the drop rate is as good. The lurkers (the recommended spiders) start at around 34,38 if you come at them from Tranquillen.

Just farm the lvl 18 spiders they got like 80% droprate. Makes it a 2 minute quest.

around 33, 22 thats a good spot the mobs are level 11 and it has a good drop rate took me about 3 mins to get the legs

Comment by Jamuraan

Cant do this quest as an undead for no reason I can see.

Comment by wargh0st

This quest is only worth for the xp >.<
But you can kill all spiders (no critters,,,) in ghostlands for the drop
ALL THE SPIDERS HAVE THE SAME DROP RATE!!!
65%

I spoke with a GM regarding this quest and why Undead couldn't see it. Apparently as a Blood elf you would have done this other quest that basically "Unlocks" this quest from being available so follow the requirements here:

Your reputation must be Friendly or above with Tranquillien, and you must have completed - the Pre-Requisite if you will is "The Forsaken" (http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=9327) from Arcanist Vandril (http://www.wowhead.com/?npc=16197), he will then want you to talk with High Executor Mavren (http://www.wowhead.com/?npc=16252) who is about 30 yards away, then return. This quest chain when complete will do the needful, which unlocks this quest (Culinary Crunch). I just confirmed it and completed the quest gaining my recipe for cooking (As an Undead Rogue).

Enjoy Ladies...

I found all mine at 26,32 I killed about 10 spiders and got all 5 of the legs. Very easy quest.

Comment by FarseerLolotea

As Crazyville stated, you have to be friendly with Tranquilien and have completed the short quest chain starting here for this to become available. Completing Suncrown Village and either Anok'suten or Tomber's Supplies should get you the necessary rep.

And for anyone doing this quest on an alt: Crunchy Spider Legs drop from quite a long list of mobs.

Comment by Seaweed

I guess the drop rate's increased. I followed QH, and was done after 6 spiders.

Tauren also need to be friendly with Tranquillien, and I had to do the "The Forsaken" chain, the Suncrown Village and Anok'suten quests, and Tomber's Supplies (http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=9152), another easy quest, to get enough rep.

Comment by Burpies

Counts towards Loremaster.

Comment by 374499

Awards 1000 reputation with Tranquillien. (And obviously not the 100,000 rep Wowhead says).

Comment by 573958

Does NOT count toward Loremaster of Eastern Kingdoms.

Comment by 941372

As of the latest patch, the drop rate seems to be 100%.

Comment by Syntexx

Do this quest along with the quest Clearing the Way.

Clearing the Way

The Greater Spindleweb Spiders needed for that quest will also drop the crunchy legs needed for this quest.

You have to slay spiders and loot their legs to complete the quest. Alot of spider can be found west from Tranquillien.
Be sure, Recipe: Crunchy Spider Surprise requires 60 cooking level, dont drop it off if you cant learn.
Also if you play first time, better to keep it and sell at AH, it's easy money for mount, etc.

Now the quest giver simply sells the recipe for 4s, no more need to do a quest :)

Culinary Crunch

Collect 5 Crunchy Spider Legs and return them to Master Chef Mouldier at Tranquillien in the Ghostlands.

	Crunchy Spider Leg (5)

Description

This is intolerable! I have nothing to work with here! Milady asks me to come from Silvermoon City; she deserves cuisine as befits her station. No? But I get here and there is no food. You must go out, <class>, and bring back fresh kills so that I have something to prepare.

Dame Auriferous prefers a crunchy texture to her food. There are plenty of spindleweb lurkers to the southwest on the other side of the Dead Scar. Disgusting, I know, but that's what we have to work with.
