Like a lot of these quests where high-level players have to weaken (not kill) low-level mobs, just suck it up and:
1. find a nice high ledge to stand on
2. disarm your weapons
3. jump off ledge and die
4. take the resurrection sickness
5. return to mob area
6. punch mobs into weakness
7. apply tag/net/lasso/etc.Yes, it will cost you to repair your armor. Yes, you will be sick for 10 minutes.
It is however, a repeatable, reliable process.

Description
Your work with the lashers turned up some astounding information, but I wonder if it holds true for animals as well. Gathering information on the talbuks that live underneath this dome is going to be trickier than studying the lashers, I'm afraid. Using this tagging device, you can put a weakened talbuk to sleep and apply a tag that I'll use to track the animal as it matures. The tagging mechanism won't work unless the talbuk has expended most of its energy.
