Super Sticky Tar (12)

Description

I'm always looking for a quick way to earn a gold, <name>. If you help me with my newest idea, I'll let you in on a little of the profit. How does that sound to you?

I thought so!

Head to the tar pits in northern Un'Goro Crater, and collect me some tar. Not just any tar, now, you'll need to get it from the beasts that live around the tar pits. Regular tar just simply isn't sticky enough.

The plant-like creatures contain chlorophyll in their skin, and mixed with the tar, it's super sticky!

Reward

Also, you get: 1 65

Progress

Tran'rek's done it again -- this super sticky glue will be all the rage!

Completion

Yes, this tar is just the stuff...

Hey, wait a minute, my hands... I can't seem to get them apart...

Maybe this wasn't such a good idea. Oh, but wait! Super sticky tar remover! That's where the real money is!

Gains

Upon completion of quests, get:
  • 545 experience (32 70 at max. level)
  • 250 Reputation with Gadgetzan

You can avoid the ""Black Sludge"" debuff by turning and running as soon as they start casting, its a long cast and a short range, plus unless you can remove disease 54% slower attack is a huge pain. There are lower mobs then the 52-54 ones, if you go farther east, there are more spread out tar-pools with 50-52 mobs.

Pretty decent drop rate around 46,33 on lower level mobs.

The drop rate is terrible for all of the tar-* mobs. They do, however, respawn quickly.

The Tar Lords and Tar Lurkers seem to have a higher drop rate than the Tar Creepers

Just outside of Marshal's Refuge: https://vanillawowdb.com/?maps=490:502165 Click here for map location.
not to brag but it took me about 12 minutes to do during the midsummer buff not sure if it was luck or whatever i got about 12 in a row killing the Lords they go down pretty fast with any physical damage they are just casters, watch out for their entangle roots, its a pain.

I have just wrapped up both the Un Goro soil &amp; Super Sticky quests. I worked the guys in the basic area of 48, 33 &amp; worked out in the basic area. Got lots of the crystals, too. I am a level 52 BE Ret Pally &amp; I had no real issue with even the level 54's. Make sure you have your hand ready to dispel the creeper they spell you with sometimes, and hit them with one of your judgements &amp; then Holy Wrath if you have it. I was also taunting individuals away from the groups, so I was basically picking them off at my liesure.

I somehow ended up with this quest early on and was able to kill these tar monsters without much issue as a elemental shaman. After a lot of fighting, healing, and drinking potions, I was able to kill enemies 4 to 6 levels higher than I was. Completing the quest took a while with my shaman being Level 48 and the monsters I was running into being 52-54 but it went without a hitch and no death.

Good stuff!

This quest is basically free XP for a Fire Mage. These mobs take -insane- amounts of damage from Fire spells (my 48 Fire Mage has been critting with Pyroblast in the ~1900 range instead of his usual ~1200; my highest Pyro crit so far was 2058). It is possible to literally two-shot some of these mobs, even at my level. Were I Lv52 or 53 with more Spell Power I might even be one-shotting some of them.
One of Blizzard's little gifts to the game's true glass cannon.

This is a great quest if you want very easy XP. For me the drop rate was about 30%, so 30-40 kills did it. They don't run, they stand far apart, they are easy to spot, there are many of them and there are no other mobs to worry about IN the area, only around (if you stay in the area south of Marshal's Refuge, if you wander off to pits farther away, this is not correct. But there's no need to do that.)

This quest is an obvious reference to Marijuana subculture.

The questgiver's name is a reference to Train Wreck, which is a strain of marijuana, and Super Sticky itself is a slang term for cannabis.
