6 Drums (if you're a drummer, this works out perfectly with 2 floor toms) but I digress...

Even though it shows a quest marker in each zone, some of mine were covered with World Quest Tracker icons. Since I did not know All of the areas by heart, I present you with the following: *I did em in this order so as to not get stuck without a HS.

Tradewinds Market is obvious to the most casual observer. Ya can't miss it.
Scaletrader - Zuldazar: /way 71 30
Fort Victory - Nazmir: /way 61.85 40.86
Terrace of the Devoted - Vol'Dun: /way 28 51
Arom's Stand: /way 37.70 48.40
Deadwash - Stormsong Valley: /way 43 56

Instruments of Destruction

Even without the waypoints, you should have no difficulty placing the drums.

Just look for a yellow "ghost" the size and shape of a 55-gallon drum
which is placed sideways on the ground. I.E., the axis is horizontal!

/way Boralus 76.1, 13.6 Tradewinds Mkt. near Skinning Trainer

/way Zuldazar 71.05, 30.3 Scaletrader Post (saw some abberration here)

/way Nazmir 61.8, 40.8 Fort Victory

/way Vol'dun 28.0, 50.7 Terrace of the Devoted

/way Drustvar 37.7, 48.8 Arom's Stand just past [npc=135815]

/way Stormsong Valley 43.0, 57.3 Deadwash sly devils hid it below the FP deck!

After placing the last drum, return to Boralus and turn in quest to [npc=151173]

;)

Description

There is one last thing we need to do. These drums, while powerful, are practically useless here in town. If you want to get the most benefit from them, you'll need to spread them out. I'd suggest one for each territory here and in Zandalar, to help you when you are on a quest and to keep you at your strongest when you're behind enemy lines. Look for someplace centralized in each territory to place drums. Once you return, I'll show you how to make the mallet needed to utilize the drums.
