Anyone else feel like they're re-enacting Starship Troopers?

Comment by Woetoo

Not the most obvious thing to spot if you haven't seen one before.

Look for light brown hills with a hole in the middle.

And for those that DOESN'T use cords? ;=/

Comment by Flitzy

Don't bother going north west like the quest text says.

Head due east from the quest giver up the stairs to the area where the spiders are nesting. You'll find a bunch there.

They look like medium-sized, flat ant hills sort of. Not large depressions in the ground.

Attention:

- You need to be very near after you throw your grenade to get the credit. If you throw it and run off you may not get it.

-The small nerubi (little spiders) do not put you into combat and don't attack so dont bother with them.

They are also inside the building nearby.

This quest, obviously if you played it, pays homage to Gears of War. Throwing a grenade down an emergence hole of emenies in order to close it up and stop the flow of enemies.

Kudos blizzard.

Comment by mack

This quest is a reference to Gears of War. (In the game you close Locust's tunnels by throwing grenades into it)

Edit: didn't read the guy above me, apologizes :)

Comment by Sterling

A little note for druids doing this quest that are lvl 77+ and have their flight form. You can't throw the grenades while flying. However, you can land next to one throw a grenade in caster form and pop back into flight form, avoiding getting into combat with the little crawlers that spawn when you bomb a crater. It makes doing this quest very quickly an easy proposition

Go to where the Nerbian cocoons and Hath'ar Broodmasters are. Just look left( west) of the quest giver and for steps, 2 torches on both sides . After you turn in youll get 3 more quests 1 for the same place, and 2 more for the area east (right)

The moment I read this quest I thought Gears of War. In the game, you throw grenades down the Locust emergence holes to seal them up quickly. Replace Locust with Nerubian and emergence holes with Nerubian Tunnels and you got yourself this quest.

Comment by Eveena

Fly down and land on the little ant hills. Throw the grenade (should be on your action bar). As soon as it deploys, quickly summon your bird and fly up as the explosion spawns spiders. Done in a few minutes this way.

You can run back and forth between the same two hills, dropping the grenades in. Makes it less tedious than looking for five different holes.

Just throw the grenades into the mounds of dirt, and they will go off. The spiders that jump out die of the fire so u don't have to worry about them.

Comment by Naturon

It's look like not high hill lower then your char

Comment by Teldarsterallnes

not if your a gnome, or maybe a dwarf. i thought the mounds looked pretty high, and i'm a human

Comment by 439585

There is one inside the building at 55,68 (tunnel that is )

Comment by Seac

Because saying "east not northeast, I mean west not east and not northeast" and "by that building with the thing" and "it's like this tall" and "here's some coordinates because 100% of people use them" didn't do jack for me, I took a screenshot of the location and what they look like. (Also in case no one noticed the 4 screenshots already provided on the SS page.)

You must be standing on the hill to use the grenade. It will spawn 6 or 7 Burning Skimmers that can't be attacked and die after a few seconds. The tunnel will despawn after the Skimmers die.

Thanks to Zeenni this quest was made easy thank you

Comment by Allakhazam

ty Zeenni, the picture helped a lot. They look more like sand piles than craters. Just travel northwest from quest giver about 20 yards where you will see large bugs and a lot of wiggly cocoons. You will find the craters there.

Comment by Allakhazam

omg lmao...thank you SO much...I was driving myself crazy looking for CRATERS as in holes in the ground /bonks self. Preciate it.

Comment by Allakhazam

They look like this : Nerubian Craters

Throwing Down

Captain Rupert at Drak'Sotra wants you to use High Impact Grenades near 5 Nerubian Craters.

	Nerubian Tunnels Sealed (5)

Provided item:

	High Impact Grenade (1)

Description

Clever...

Just when it seemed we were getting things under control, they tunneled right underneath us and secured the shrine!

Now we're caught between two Nerubian armies and our predicament is worsening by the minute.

As our first course of action, we must stop them from reinforcing. Their tunnels must be sealed.

Take these grenades and throw them down their craters to the northwest.
