Bugging Out

Bugging Out is an Alliance-only quest for level 15-35. It is step 9 of 43 in the Operation Shieldwall storyline. The quest's turn-in marker is in Kun-Lai Summit at 59.2, 84.3. It rewards 4,800 experience and money.

Description

I've managed to plant a few bugs around the camp, but there could always be more.

I disguised the bugs to look like statues. They blend in perfectly with the other artifacts lying around.

Your disguise should allow you to move freely around the camp. Just don't go near the dog and don't linger around Garrosh! Nero and Garrosh will see through your disguise.

If you get caught I can't help you. I can't compromise the mission!

On taking this quest , and the other , put on your Grummle disguise and go to one of the yaks in the camp and right cilck it , causing it to run amok , quickly enter the big tent on the right and click on the statue on the little table , run out again and click another yak then grab the journal ( other quest ) off the outside table. Go to the two smaller tents and click the objects by them and you're done. BE AWARE there is a wolf patrolling who sees through stealth / disguise.

I think this quest, ironically enough, might be bugged. I've done this before on another toon and don't remember having any issues but now I cannot step three foot inside the camp without aggroing Garrosh, he smells you from a mile away. I get one use of the yak and no more, enough to get the journal but there's no way I can click the statues.
edit: finished the quest, I had to throw myself into the camp as far as I could and get close enough to the statues so that when Garrosh killed me, I could respawn and click the statues before he killed me again. I haven't had issue with this quest before, so I don't know why Garrosh can spot you from several miles away now :(

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

He's In DeepLevel 15-35
Agent Connelly has managed to infiltrate Garrosh's camp in Kun-Lai! He's been following their every move. Connelly requested you specifically to assist him in gathering some vital intelligence. He sent along a disguise for you. Make sure you put it on before approaching the camp!

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

He Won't Even Miss ItLevel 15-35
I've noticed Garrosh and that Reliquary blood elf carrying around some sort of journal. The journal is never more than a stone's throw away. It must be important! If you can cause enough of a distraction, you may be able to swipe the journal off the table. These yaks might just do the trick.
