Quest Log

Pollen Punching (Horde)

Pollen Punching is a Horde-only quest for level 10-60.

Description

It looks like some beast managed to lap up all de pollen with it's tongue. It is curious as to what creature could have done dis, I doubt it matters.

You should be able to do dis yourself without needing any sort of rare or dangerous reagents.

Next time you find a siren's sting, wet your glove so the pollen will stick to it. Water, wine, blood... It should not matter.

Rewards

You will receive:

Spell: Herbalism Technique: Siren's Pollen (Rank 3)Teaches you how to gather siren's pollen more effectively.

Pollen Punching quest can be started in Zuldazar from [npc=122704] herbalism trainer after the [item=160301] quest.
I was able to take it after ~150 profession skill.
To complete this quest you need to farm more Siren's Pollen herb (Siren' String nodes)
Horde players can farm in Nazmir or Zuldazar
Siren' String can grow on any tree, so just farm in any forest.
Best farm location is Drustvar forest near Fallhaven.

I picked it up at skill 148 while killing monsters from another herbalism quest. It dropped from a node I farmed in the middle of the other quest.
