Description

It could take you days to get that much meat, and I don't want to wait around. So, we'll use a Bot as bait! You send EARL-E towards any disturbances you see in the mud. He'll make enough noise to scare any worms out. Then kill the worms, get the meat. I'll watch from here.

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.
