In case you have a moment of getting confused about the directions like I and several people by me during launch, and are back here wondering why the fat bug just will not move:

For this quest it is not the large bug Gloober right by the quest giver that you can repeatedly pet just for fun. :)

If you look to the left of where you placed the Wildseed, there are many baby Docile Gromlings waiting to be lured to the Wildseed and the quest is very easy! Good luck

Description

The gormlings are industrious creatures. Naturally, they are our source of gorm gris. Gormlings are cute, small, and hungry, like Gloober here! Except he is not hungry right now, because I just fed him. Look at that little belly... <Ahem>. I digress. Gormlings will be drawn to consume anything that is not brimming with anima. They find it simply delicious. Take that wildseed there, and bring it into their pen. Then, see if you can get the gormlings to feast upon it!

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.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • In Need of Gorm GrisArdenweald · Level 10-56

    Our neighboring grove at Glitterfall Basin has sent out a desperate plea for gorm gris. It may have humble origins, but it is an important ingredient for our artisans and crafters. As this drought goes on, it has become increasingly difficult to collect.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Collection DayArdenweald · Level 10-56

    Now, we can collect the gorm gris for Guardian Kota! Once the gormlings have eaten something, we can 'encourage' them to give it back up. What they produce, we call gorm gris! My Gormherd Branch should encourage them to do this safely. Go on, give it a try on good ol' Gloober first.

The storyline at a glance

Tranquil Pools has 4 steps, from In Need of Gorm Gris to Delivery for Guardian Kota.
