TheWoWDBLook for some dust/gas clouds and put your Earthen Thumper there. A couple of worms will spawn in quick succession until the cloud is depleted. You'll probably need to repeat above procedure no more than 4 times.

Description
The next reagent ya need comes from the bellies of worms that burrow through this realm. While ya can find plenty o' worms all over, there's a certain type you'll need ta find. They're rarely seen above ground, but there are ways of coaxing 'em out. Namely making enough racket to piss 'em off! Ha ha! When ya see 'em rumblin' around beneath ya, use this thumper to draw 'em out. Deliver a killin' blow and get that metal from their wee bellies!
Where to go
Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.
