The nests are usually inside caves, but some can spawn outside too. Spent a good 10mins waiting for them to respawn so I hope they increase the spawn rate come live.

They look like the batch of orange eggs on the ground (that you walk over), but these eggs can be targeted and 'killed'.

If a gold cogwheel appears when you mouseover the eggs, they don’t count. If you see a dagger on mouseover they’ll count. Destroy the eggs with your regular weapons or [item=152648] (no flame effects though). Respawn is now much faster. Eggs are also in the side rooms and [npc=126115]’s Lair.
