Description
Back in Gurthani Terrace where you found me, dreadspinners continue to occupy the attention of Shado-Pan marksmen who could otherwise be thinning out this wretched swarm. Eradicate those spiders and offer some relief to the archers on that wall.
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.

For some strange reason game developers have absolutely no knowledge of biology. The same spider/insect bug was in Baldurs Gate.
Certainly it could be a biology error, but I also wondered if this could be read as a slur against the spiders as an additional insult by the notoriously chauvinistic Mantid.
