The flies were in small swarms of five or six that were very easy to aoe down and with the new ability for all eligible loot to be extracted with one click the quest took about five minutes.

After you accept the quest, go down the steps until you see a big tree and a small lake on your left. This spot as well as further down where there's two big trees on either side of the steps are the best places to farm these. Otherwise all the other groups are spread out and only contain 5-6 adds.
If you are doing this quest, be aware these flies are also the target of a daily quest @ lvl 90. So during busy hours on your server, be prepared to run around a lot looking for live ones.

What to do
Description
You will forgive my current state. I have slept for many years. A Klaxxi'va should have been here to attend my Wakening with kypari sap... but you will have to do. I sense the buzzing of sapflies to the south. They gorge on the nourishing sap I need. Bring them to me.

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.

Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Preserved in Amber
Take... this... <The dying mantid struggles to outstretch his arm. In his mangled grasp rests a metal fork with two long, thin prongs and an ornately jeweled handle.> Awaken... the Wind-Reaver... It is the only way... to end the swarm.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Ancient Vengeance
I can hear them howling in rage... The spirits of the Gurthani mogu I slew so long ago. They wander this ruined terrace, seeking vengeance. If they find me in this state, I will not have the strength to fend them off. Draw their attention and put them down.
