Description

Ever since the untimely passing of dear, sweet Lizzie, rest her soul, the pests have multiplied like crazy! In recent days, giant spiders have begun crawling out of the cellar underneath the southern mill. No one has been able to go down there, for fear of being wrapped in web and eaten alive! Would you mind squashing a few arachnids and collecting any silk you find?

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.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Aww, Rats!Stormsong Valley · Level 30-60

    I didn't sign up for this! I just want to get back to the simple things, like grinding wheat and drinking mead. As if things couldn't get any worse around here, there's an army of rats ransacking the shed and I don't have the stomach to exterminate them.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Gunpowder PlotStormsong Valley · Level 30-60

    Granny has everyone out running errands trying to put our hamlet back in order. I don't know what to do. The rats have gotten into our stores, they're eating everything in sight. I tried prodding one of them to get it to move along, it started foaming at the mouth, then it exploded!
