Monstrous Crawler Leg (10)

Description

There's a high demand for the succulent taste of crawler meat among my customers; especially the meat from the monstrous crawlers.

If you plan on heading to the coast, then I could easily make it worth your while to bring me back some of their legs to have transported back to Orgrimmar.

The coast is to the east from here, and you should have no problem finding the creatures scurrying along the beaches and under the sea.

Reward

You will receive:

Progress

I have a cask of wine waiting for your success, <name>. It's only right I taste the goods before I have it shipped back to my customers.

Completion

Ah, this should be perfect. I can't wait to taste these after they are prepared perfectly over an open fire. You should take a sample of it with you on your travels. It truly is delicious.

Gains

Upon completion of quests, get:
  • 375 experience (22 50 at max. level)
  • 250 Reputation with Orgrimmar

I don't know about this quest. I've killed 30 of these things so far and have only collected 4 legs. The drop rate is pretty bad.

The drop rate isn't the best for these guys, but make sure you're only killing Monstrous Crawlers and NOT Silt Crawlers.

I had trouble finding Monstrous Crawlers along the beach, but found plenty of them under water on the ocean floor.

95,71 is a good area. Just swim up and kill along the way.

Wether spiral's nor Croustique's coords helped alot. I just farmed the whole beach and even the single crawlers between the murlock camps...took years to finish. If you can skip that quest do it...it's just not worth it. The low drop rate just shows what this game is all about -&gt; grinding mobs...this is no quest Blizzard!

Ignore the doomsayers. As noted here on wowhead, the drop rate is around 38%. Not great, but not horrible.

The good: these crabs don't hit hard and drop Zesty Clam Meat which is needed for the 300 cooking skill quest: https://vanillawowdb.com/?quest=6610 https://vanillawowdb.com/?quest=6610 - they also have a regular loot table. I picked up a couple greens along the way and you most likely will, too. It's also good to do the Lack of Surplus quest, https://vanillawowdb.com/?quest=698 https://vanillawowdb.com/?quest=698 while you're at it if you're Horde. The croc's in the water drop the quest item as well as the lower ones inland by Stonard.

The bad: aside from a few spots, they aren't on the beach, but are out at sea, interspersed among sawtooths that are aggressive. You will most likely spend a lot of time swimming just to get them.

The ugly: they're often around murlocs. fkin murlocs.

This quest is quite nice because it forces you to grind alot of mobs for XP in the process of obtaining the 10 legs.
I'd advice against going too far out in the water. It's alot more efficient to kill some murlocs on the shore to get to the crawlers.

Like others have sawowhead:1,id: the droprate for this quest isn't really all that bad, but the quest seems very long because the Monstrous Crawlers are really far apart.

The best thing to do is to combine this quest with Threat from the Sea:

https://vanillawowdb.com/?quest=1426 https://vanillawowdb.com/?quest=1426

It's still a pain, mind you... It just makes it a TAD easier to bear.

As a 41 paladin (slooow killing), I went to the islands at the very north east and circled them, killing all crabs I could see. The odd croc walks by to be killed too for the other quest mentioned above.
Drop rate for me is about 50% too.

Yes, the drop rate is terrible and murlocs are always annoying, but here's a tip for hunters who want to stick it out. For crawlers out in the open ocean and that are deep down, keep as close to the surface as possible while still being in range, then take a shot at them and let them come to you before letting your pet attack them. Chances are that if you're around the same level as the mobs (I did it at 43) then they'll go to your pet anyway, allowing you to back up and shoot them. This way, when they die you don't have to go way deep down to loot them. And that, I found, greatly decreases the chance of taking damage because you can't get to the surface fast enough.

If you are one of those people who is powerlvling, dont pick up this quest. spawn rate is low, and drop rate isnt great either. I spent an hour and a half combing the beach. your not even grinding s you do so, just a total lack of exp per hour. you spend most of your time swimming or just riding around on the shore .... avoid.

Just finished the quest, 25 kills for the 10 quest drops + 3 or 4 greens, really not bad at all specially if you are rested.

save yourself some frustration, don't do this quest. the drop rate is horrid and there aren't all that many of these to make up for that. do the kill murloc quests and move on.

This quest DOES count for the Loremaster of Eastern Kingdoms. So, it is worth it despite the poor drop rate.

Quest Helper and most of the other posts are not taking you to the right area.

Abster in a previous post was dead on.

95,71 is the center point for a very good spot. Monstrous Crawlers were kinda scattered out there everywhere UNDERWATER in a valley off the coast. Yes, its underwater, so water breathing helps but my Mage had no issue. AND the drop rate is very reasonable. Only took about 12mins of swimming back and forth including a few surface intervals of 30 seconds for some mana regen to get my 10.

And no safety stops - GREAT!

Stop crying and start diving!

Blizzard should make an achievement for doing this Q...

My advice for that quest is: Don't do that or if you will decide to do, take something soothing with you, because you will get a brutal enrage effect while doing this Q...

Definitely the drop rate has dramatically improved to somewhere like 2-1

The underwater valley at 95,71 as mentioned above, is a great place to start.
