TheWoWDBThe tentacles you need to kill are NOT Tentacle of Iso'rath (L85 elites with 387,000 health). You are to kill the tentacles on the ground closer to the area you received the quest from. They are L84 with about 77,000 health. When you kill them, you get quest credit, however they are not lootable.

Quest seems to be bugged currently. I am unable to target either the elites or normal tentacles.
Confirm/Deny?
The questgiver uses the wrong form of the word "its" in the quest text.
"It's tentacles have been burstin' from da ground all around us."I don't know why this bothers me.
