TheWoWDBIf you are having trouble with this because you get no totem, try leaving the area and walk back in... walk don't ride. Being mounted seems to interfere with the totem appearing. Having the totem makes this quest much less annoying. Try it on spider eggs! :)

I reported this bug today. If anyone else finds it's still happening, please report it again. Sazalla, thank you for the workaround.
If you don't immediately see a totem, don't waste time looking for it, just kill the quest mobs.
