The best place to get the Impaler requirement is 25.65, 87.04. There is a Zan'thik Impaler there that respawns instantly once killed. Just set up shop there and kill 6 easy.

Does anybody else have the Impalers disengage, recoup their health and then re-attack, only to do it all over, again?

Description

The warriors of Zan'vess are some of the most feared and respected in the empire, for good reason. Impalers are unmatched in their mastery of the polearm - no doubt Malik trained among the Zan'thik in his time. Their manipulators command terrifying sonic power with the ease and subtlety of a breath. Both will need to be dealt with.

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.
