Don't pull too many hosts at once - their plague aura makes quick work of squishies. About 7,5k plague damage per second PER host.

Description

The bugs have been laying eggs in the corpses of our soldiers, it's absolutely terrifying! Some of them are rising from the ground as putrid, bloated, hideous monstrosities. We have to stop them before they continue to bolster their ranks with our fallen. It's not a pleasant task... but I have to ask you to help me destroy them. Completely. Grab some bombs behind me, if you'd like.

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.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Burn the BodiesUldum · Level 50

    The bugs seem to be indiscriminately laying eggs all over the nearby corpses. They are using them as food to spawn more of those horrible things. Disgusting! We can mourn the dead later, but if any more bugs are allowed to hatch we may not live long enough to do so.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Ruins of AmmonUldum · Level 50

    These things seem to be everywhere and all at once! Either this was an organized attack, or there are far more of them than we can even comprehend. Regardless, this is bad for us... really, really bad.
