to find these Bugs, you go south of the pond where you finished the first part of the quest to the Noxious Lair (36,40 to 32,51 ish)

any of these bugs drops the carapace but it is not 100% drop chance.
i don't exactly remember, but i think the bugs lvls are 45 to 50.

Incredibly low drop-rate..
Not worth the time/effort if you have other quests available.

Commento di 44364

If you dont go to far in and only attack the bugs on the edges you should be able to keep from aggroing to much i finshed as a lv 45 Hunter

Commento di 32503

Was yellow for me at 45, but lowest mob I could find was 48 (orange), most were 50 (red).

Commento di 45595

This quest can be done at the Noxious Lair (37,36). The drop rate isn't that bad, about 1 in 2, I got all 5 Centipaar Insect Parts in 12 kills.

You definitely should watch out for those Silithid Swarms especially if you have no AOE capabilities. I tend to keep away from the Centipaars with a Swarm near them.

Commento di Nycteris

I did this quest with my lvl 45 warrior last night - it is doable but you have to be careful. The bugs are lvl 47-50 and although the drop rate is high, it is not 100%. I was getting one drop out of three kills. I was killing lvl 47-48 bugs.

A word of caution:

The lvl 50 bug has a VERY small minion. You can mistake it for one of the critters Blizzard put in the game - it is not. Around the lvl 50 bug, look to the ground. It is very small. You might not even be able to click on it that easily, but it is a minion. Their walkpaths are not that similar either. Those two bugs might be far apart from each other. Do not aggro it since it will bring the big one running.

Commento di Thottbot

Location is accurate
Drop rate is around 40%
Lvl 48 hunter solod no problems - however be carefull when fighting the lvl 50 swarmers as hundreds of smaller ones come out to fight as well making it imposible for caster but they are one hit kills.

Commento di Thottbot

Solo'd this as a 45 mage. Best chance is to run along the perimeter and pick out the single 47 and 48's.

Commento di Thottbot

Found drop rate to be 33% with and without a group. As a paladin used consecration to ellimunate small bugs that pop. Dynamite works also for engineers

Commento di Thottbot

Here are the corr. 35,46

Commento di Thottbot

Went to round 36,48 with lvl 46 shaman did it fast.

Did the swarmers only and just threw a nova totem to kill the lil buggers.

Commento di Thottbot

This quest is a bit of a PIA with the drop rate and pesky horde (I'm on Sargeras).

Killed flying mobs up to level 49 with my 45 war with % to crit gear (cragfist armor, rockpounder, some others). The 49s tested me but besides them I never went below 50% on HP, and thats only because my rockpounder is so slow. I worked on the outside of the crater.

Anyway, drop rate is pretty miserable overall, what I notice even more is that it is difficult to get ANYTHING to drop from these guys. Many times I came up empty on drops.

Not sure about the crawlers - I did kill one and got 1 part from it. The rest from flying insects. The only reason I would go for crawlers is because one of them (I forget which) runs back for help. The rest do not.

Go in with rest XP, though, and its excellent grinding material. Overall I got about 12k XP between the quest that starts this one, the mobs, and this ending quest (including rest XP).

Unless your level 50, going in the middle is, to me, a suicide mission. The are pretty tightly packed in there. I suggest starting at the ramp as a camp and pulling back there, then working out from that.

Commento di Thottbot

There was an update today, and I just started this quest. Apparently the drop rate has changed. I'm only killing 47-48 Wasps, but I have 3/5 within 10 mobs. I hope it isn't just luck!

Commento di Thottbot

I solo'd this as a 46 hunter, but it wasn't very much fun. The drop rate sucks.

Stay away from the non-flying insects, especially the Swarmers, which will summon about a million tiny guards that'll interrupt you like crazy. The drop rate also seems to be even worse for the crawling ones as opposed to the flying ones, so there's no reason to touch them.

But the worst part? Just *being* there. If hanging around a ton of gigantic, *twitching* disembodied insect legs doesn't sound like your idea of a good time, skip this quest. It made my skin crawl. :P

Commento di Thottbot

Coords: 36,48 to the West
Drop rate is about 40% from any of the insects there although its better to kill the flying ones as the crawling ones spawn little critters to help them.

You dont need to go to the middle theres enough to kill around the edge.

Did it in 10 mins np.

Commento di Thottbot

did as a 45 hunter and had no problems with the droprate. All the insects had about a 75% drop

Commento di Thottbot

I've done this quest twice (with two different characters) and have concluded it's completely random. My first 45+ warrior was here for maybe an hour and had to go into the center in frustration to get the 5 parts. My 47 hunter stayed on the outside, killed mostly wasps and had five parts in 12 kills. BTW -- the first worker and swarmer did not drop a part, the wasps dropped all of mine. See ... no way of telling.

Commento di Thottbot

ok well it's cordinates is 36,46 and it very easy. It took me not even 10 minutes to complete it. The longest part was actually getting to the site.

If you kill the bugs that crawl rather than fly you seem to get the parts faster.

Commento di Thottbot

35.45

Commento di Thottbot

There are 2 places with bugs it might seem obvious whitch one is the right one but be careful i killed like 20 at the wrong one and wa sgetting heaps angry untill a guildie told me lol dont mix up

Commento di Thottbot

Coordinates are 35,46ish. You can't miss it.
For you who doesn't use coordinates - it's straight southwest of Gadgetzan, west of Abyssal Sands.
I had a 100% droprate from the Centipaar Stingers and the Centipaar Swarmers, 33% from the Centipaar Wasps. Definately not a tough quest for a level 47.

Commento di Thottbot

you guys dont need to spam a million times the drop rate is low and ur aggravated, i read the first 2 posts and understood it, the next 10000 million is just a waste. even if the drop rate is low it forces u to grind, so low drop rate is a good thing. thanks for the coords guys, and happy hunting!

Commento di Thottbot

This quest is not really obtainable at level 38, still a gray ! And have finished and turned in the first in series

Commento di Allakhazam

Don't know why it's not listed, but this leads to "The Scrimshank Redemption"

Commento di Allakhazam

36,46. Got my 5 centipaars in 5 min

Commento di Allakhazam

Ok, so the drop rate seems to be adequate. As a 46 Mage, however, I'm having to tuck tail, run, and go get my armor repaired after getting killed twice now. I've NEVER had to pay a gold to get repairs, either. One more trip oughtta complete this.

Commento di Allakhazam

Easily solo'ed as a level 45 arms warrior, got all 5 pieces in 15-20 kills. Nice and quick, just how I like it. 36,46 is where most of the 47-48's are, so go there if you're a bit lower level like I was.

3150 xp, Gadgetzan rep increased by 75.

Commento di Allakhazam

This quest turns yellow really early, if you want to do it as early as you can then the best place is probably the south side of the nest as there are loads of 47-48 centipaar wasps there (the lowest level centipaar). As stated drop rate is fairly ugly so you might be there for a while.

Commento di Allakhazam

i did it got all 5 with in 10 -15 kills where do i give the quets in at ?

Where in gadgetzan is Senior Surveyor Fizzledowser? I don't use cosmos and I have run all over the place looking for him.

Commento di Allakhazam

Horrid drop rate! The worst I have experienced so far in game. Took me almost 2 hours at 45 to get all 5 parts. Didn't die once, just killing non-stop and it took that long.

Stay away from this quest until at least 48 when the drop rate gets better. It's just a time waste until then.

Commento di Allakhazam

I completed this quest as a 47 rogue.
Difficulties with the level 50 spawns near by.
As suggested before, kill the wasps. I believe
they have a higher drop rate for the item.

Commento di Allakhazam

Ya as a 49 hunter didnt take long for them all to drop only took 6 kills then i was on my way.

Commento di Allakhazam

As someone said earlier, this quest is VERY unfairly yellow-rated for a LvL 45. These guys are a pain in the ass... And the droprate is horrible. I've killed about 15 now, and I have not more than 1 little questitem in my bag.
Horrible.

Commento di Allakhazam

The droprate definitely sucks on this, I killed about a dozen before the first one dropped, and then they came sort of steadily. It's more irritating that there are way too many level 49 and 50s wandering around.

Commento di Allakhazam

This is the worst quest I've ever had to do as a Level 45 Pali. Drop rate sucks and got mobbed constantly.

Commento di Allakhazam

Loc (35-38) mostly lvl 47-49 only had till kill maybe 7, stingers seemed to have the best drop rate

Commento di Allakhazam

location is 36, 46

Commento di Allakhazam

I did this at 47(mage).. And it is highly possible, but damn that droprate is off..

Commento di Allakhazam

Just solo'd this quest at lvl 45 with a hunter. It was semi time consuming because of the low drop rate but wasnt really had. The only mobs that gave me any trouble were the 50 swarmers but if you play smart they arent hard at all (explosive trap, barrage, volley, and use of the pet properly). If you dont have AoE dont attack these guys --just go for the rest of the mobs.

Commento di Allakhazam

i dont know what everone is talking about but i did this quest as a level 44 hunter and every mob i killed dropped the parts.. i only killed the wasps though

Commento di Allakhazam

I was a little luckier with drop rate than some of the other posters here. I cut a bee-line (ha!) from gagetszan to the west side of the hive and only attacked the stingers(flying insects--level 48 and 49). I avoided the walking critters, but had one join the fight on 3 different occasions. Of the 3 walking critters, none yielded quest parts while the flying guys yielded about a 50% drop rate. I don't know if that was just a coincidence, but it worked for me. I always stayed near the perimeter cliff wall and when I penetrated into the hive, I would agro a stinger with a curse and immediately run for the cliff wall, and would time it to put my Voidwalker on attack at the last second so that he would intercept the stinger near the edge of the hive, just before it would have gotten to me. Worked every time and kept the danger of agro off except the 3 times when the crawling worker things wandered near enough to agro into the fight. The stingers give a nature disease that only lasts a fifteen or twenty seconds. It seemed that these bugs didn't like hanging out at the cliff wall, so it made a good base of operations. Very quick quest except for the horse ride there and back which was a zig zag game of keeping the hyenas and birds and geckos from knocking me off my felsteed.

Commento di Allakhazam

The drop rate for this quest was absolutely horrid for me.

Also, while grinding this quest, avoid the Swarmers :/

Commento di Allakhazam

I guess it's luck of the draw with drop rate. I killed probably 15 assorted centipaar MOBs before one of them dropped the insect parts. It became better after that but still not great. I went as a 46 mage and all of the fights were close. The first swarmer killed me before I realized what was happening. Mages have the useful Arcane Explosion to take out the swarm. I fireball it until the swarm appears and then one or two Arcane Explosions to take out the little critters. I employed mana shield before each fight and needed it. One of the swarmers was level 50. The lowest was one of the stingers at level 47. A lot of xp but I'm not sure it was worth it. It does lead to the Scrimshank Redemption so maybe it is. The quest was yellow for me and was tough but doable.

Commento di Allakhazam

i killed 6 of them to get the parts. the stingers dropped them every time.

Commento di Allakhazam

Dunno why this quest is yellow to me @ 45 when all the mobs are 48-50 =(

Commento di Allakhazam

Go to 36,46, in the Noxious Lair. I killed maybe 8 and had 5 Centipaar insect parts drop, took maybe 4 minutes.

Commento di Allakhazam

wow. 36,46 works. i got all 5 out of 5 from there..

level 48.

Commento di Allakhazam

They may have improved the droprate because when I two manned this earlier the 10 required dropped from about 15 bugs.

Commento di Allakhazam

For a Druid, the swarmers are simple, just thorn yourself before fighting them, they die on contact.

Commento di Allakhazam

I agree, this was not too crazy. In fact, I had to kill about 20 of these in combination: wasps and swarmers, nothing more along the north edge of the lair, too. 45 NEDruid. Thorns, roots and barkskin are your friends! :D

Commento di Allakhazam

This took me 25 minutes and I found the best drop rate off of the wasps, which are mostly 47 level. In fact, I only got the drops off of wasps. Stay away from the swarmers because they are 50 level and have little swarm minions that you cannot even see that will kill you quickly. They only hit for 1 hp each, but when you have about 20-30 of them hitting you at the same time, you can die quickly if you do not have an area spell.

Commento di Allakhazam

Just look for centipaar stinger at 36, 46. I got the drop 5 out of 5 kills.

Enjoy =)

Commento di Allakhazam

I dunno what happened with all the rest of you, but i killed 5 bugs and 5 insect parts dropped...

Commento di Allakhazam

I got this quest at 45 (warlock) and it appeared yellow in my journal, so I figured the beasts would be 46-47. When I got there, I was ambushed by lv 50 Swarmers and promptly killed the first couple of times. What I ended up doing was going around the lair, scouting for more manageable beasts. Most of them ended up being lv 49 Stingers and lv 48 bees. I did manage to take down a lv 50, but it was a very close fight (it killed my Voidwalker, but I'd brought its health low enough to kill it with a Shadowburn and a fortunate Nightfall proc). It took about 10-12 kills to get the insect parts, so the drop rate was decent.

It seems to me that the quest was a bit unfairly marked yellow for a 45 (if I understand correctly, the difficulty of a quest depends on the level of the highest mob). So the quest should have been red for me. I didn't find any lvls 47.

If you're soloing this at a lower level like mine, I'd advise you don't go into the lair, but stalk the ridges and use a ranged attack to pull stingers, bees, and workers away from the Swarmers. Watch your back, though, because there are lv 49 basilisks roaming the edges.

Overall, doable at 45, but I wish I'd known how hard it would be before embarking on it.

Commento di Allakhazam

The droprate seems off, more like 10-15%. I didn't see many Sandreavers, but the 2 I did kill both dropped the parts. As opposed to the Wasps who I got 1 out of 20 or so.

All right now, these reports about the bugs... what we know is that they are draining the water pools that used to be where the Noxious Lair is. What we DON'T know is, well, everything else.

Let's figure out who our enemy is first! I want you to head into the Noxious Lair and get some parts off of those critters. Get five from the Centipaar there and bring them to Alchemist Pestlezugg for him to dink with. With him on the case, we'll figure out what they are!
