TheWoWDBThey're both at around 82, 36. I got my 5 Withered Bog Lord Sample in about 10-15 mins, but the Parched Hydra Sample took over 30 mins to get all five. Parched Hydra got a lower drop rate.
PS they only from the Withered Bog Lord and Parched Hydra don't waste your time with the other mobs there :)

Confirm low drop rate. Good to team up on this as the area is heavily farmed. Skinners and Herbalists make out like bandits in this area.
Same spot, just took me longer for the bog lord samples and shorter for the hydra. But both have a fairly low drop rate.

Description
We must determine how far the damage has spread. The basidium you brought me comes from a bog giant. Their larger, hardier cousins, the bog lords, should prove more resistant to the degeneration that's struck the giants. It would be good to know how the changes in the Dead Mire have affected the other creatures out there, too. Return to the Dead Mire and see if you can get samples from the bog lords and the hydra in the area.
