Don't waste your time dropping the egg near the fast moving eels close to Orako, head further south in the trench until you find slower moving eels and drop there instead.
The fast moving ones you first see just ignore the egg completely. I spent a while trying to place it ahead of them, on them, I even foolishly tried tagging a fast eel first, then deploying the egg like a mine. It didn't blow, the eel stayed elite and nommed me to a quick death.

The name is a reference to the movie "Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo", or at least a reference to the phenomenon since that movie was released of appending "Electric Boogaloo" to the end of movie sequels to poke fun at them.
I was so happy when I saw the wolf swim up...The orc missing his pet made me want to cry.

What to do
Description
<Orako removes an explosive trap from his sack and shoves it through the egg's outer membrane.> This will make the egg explode. Place the egg down next to one of those giant eels, and wait for them to come close. When the egg explodes, the big fish will be almost dead, and you can finish killing it. Save my wolf! With this egg, you can do it.
