Quest Log

Taken by the Swarm

Taken by the Swarm is a quest for level 50 in Vale of Eternal Blossoms, added in Battle for Azeroth. It rewards 6,800 experience and money.

Description

There's something different about this mantid swarm. Instead of just killing everything in sight like the mantid usually do, they've taken to capturing our defenders and holding them alive.

I really don't want to know what they have in store for the captives.

Why don't you go rescue them so we don't have to find out?

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.
