Get your hungry ranishu from the machine next to the pen, not by selecting a bug.

The little whirlwinds and the big cactus will toss you back, and the giant lasher will chew on you for several seconds if you run in range of any of them. I did, my first time, and took little or no damage, so just have fun.

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.

  • Get Us Some BeachVol'dun · Level 30-60

    These guys are running out of "ammo" faster than we can replace it! I tells 'em, we're on a beach, you're in a sandblaster, suck it up! They says it's against the cleaner driver rules for their local chapter. I'm not buyin' it. Grab us some more sand.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Charging the BatteriesVol'dun · Level 30-60

    These little fellas are ravenous whirlwinds of devouring destruction. When they get going, they consume anything in their path, without even stopping! When sated, they discharge power from them little 'lectric zingers on their heads! Then they nap.
