Нормально квест проходится, просто Геологов надо фармить не там, где шахтеры, рядом с развалинами троллей, а примерно по координатам 46;21, там они бегают в большом количестве по одиночке. Минут 10 занимает.

Drops from level 35-36 Venture Co. Geologist, caster mob, at 44.20. That's right of 'Lake Nazferiti' on the map. They drop 1-2 silver mostly, and sometimes some silk cloth as well.
Watch out for the patrolling Venture Co. Shredder (L37).
They also grant +5 reputation with Booty Bay.

The droprate for Silk Cloth was 35-40% for me.

Average value: 1s 68c.

It took me 14 kills for 8 crystals.

Did this quest as a lvl 34 lock, very fast, very easy and with a good reward. Droprate has indeed improved, I got the 8 crystals in 10 kills.
There is also a nice chest at 44,18 that is very easy to get to, only two mobs to kill.

Комментарий от Cototheburn

I did the quest real simple, did it at a high level, but the do attack in groups some times, but the drop after 2.4 patch, it was like every other kill for me.

Go to the Venture Co camp at 42,18 and start hacking away at them and they'll drop the crystals. They should be level 35, and very high drop rate.

Forman Cozzle is at the top of the tower, kill him get his key and unlock a chest at the bottom(at 43,20) for the quest Goblin Sponsorship which is found at booty bay

Then you can go North and start killing the crystal gazed basilisks in the mountains for the quest Singing Blue shards, also found in Booty Bay

Finish 3 quests at the same time!

Комментарий от Thottbot

As the quest log says, the goblins with the crystals are around the Big lake in the center of the map. You'll find them a little west of where Bhagera spawns, in the goblins clearcut and factory.

Комментарий от Thottbot

Quest clearly states that the geologists are very interested in these items, hence they drop it the most.

Комментарий от Thottbot

44,20

Комментарий от Thottbot

Quest is evil. These goblins are evil. Every single one at the lake wanders constantly, and they have the attack range of Michael Jackson at a petting zoo. And the worse part is, they blend in with the terrain with their green skin and brown clothes. Bastards.

Комментарий от Thottbot

Try 46,19 all of them dropped crystals for me.

Комментарий от Thottbot

After reading all the comments here, I decided to take my own little sample.

34 Rogue
29 kills
8 crystals
4 deaths

Done deal.

Комментарий от Thottbot

46,19 and I had them all within 10 minutes...literally....I timed it. Maybe I was lucky but this quest was super easy

Комментарий от Thottbot

very easy quest.. the far north geologists dont drop as well as the south geologist in my opinion. so far the south geologists drop 100% for me. Very easy quest for my lvl 33 NE priest. Each geologist gives me 5 reputation for booty bay too =)

Комментарий от Thottbot

To everyone saying this is an easy quest... you must not be on a pvp server. This is taking FOREVER because of idiots on horde, not to mention the drop rates are horrible.

Комментарий от Thottbot

The cords. from above are correct, of course if you dont have cords. on your map you can download off of cosmos. Im a lv 34 warlock and this quest wasnt too bad. the geologist seem to repop pretty fast so i just camped out and killed the same five and i got all i needed pretty fast. I approached from the south side of the camp off of the path. The geol. are harder to spot because of their color so dont go running in :)another thing. attacking the big mechanical things is pointless, they dont drop anything. As said above in another comment they have a big aggro range so be carefull. hope this helps.
and i love when ppl criticize each others oppinions on this website... its useless, it takes up space and this isnt what the site is for, there are a bunch of different classes and lvs doing this quest so of course you are going to have different methods of doing it... Grow up you bunch of nerds!

Комментарий от Thottbot

drop rate for geologists- 32%
found- 43,18
note- they also drop green pages and north of them are stranglethorn tigers.
- i solo as 36 warrior and it was very easy.

Комментарий от Thottbot

- Killing the geologists by the south road is pointless, the never drop anything. At a guess, I'd say this is true for the outliers all around the camp.

- The closer you get to the buildings, the more likely a geologist seems to be to drop. By the time I was killing the geologists right around the foot of the buildings, it was virtually a 100% drop rate.. I find it plausible that you could do this in less than 10 minutes, all you'd need to do is charge the mobs in the middle.

- While the geologists have a fairly wide ranging patrol area, they still stay within zones... however these zones overlap at the edges. If you either attack them directly in the middle of their zone or while they're at the edge overlapping with a geologist you've already killed, you should have absolutely no probs with aggro spread. Just keep an eye out for the shredder's patrol, they can make things irritating.

Oh, and like many/most of the quests in Stranglethorn this one's easy for hunters - found it pretty trivial with a lvl 32/33 hunter (admittedly on a non-PVP server, and I wasn't trying for a new land speed record).

Комментарий от Thottbot

did this as lvl36 druid solo. Cords: 43/20. Not that hard if you just stay on the outside. Also note that these guys are small and can blend into the environment so there are times you might get two instead of one on you. I used human tracking to find those that where a bit away from the others. It was hard to pull just one as they stay once attacked and use range attack on you. They will flee at about 25% health left so watch for that. Drop rate for me was about 1-8 after I got 2 right off the bat. Also there are a few stealthed tigers roaming about.

Комментарий от Thottbot

After many times of trying and trying I finally got those blue stones. Before today I was killing every single geologist including the ones inside the camp. But today after reading some comments from other players I tried my hunting in just one place--which is located north west from the camp and very close to the hill--and there they were. The geologists that were walking close to the hill and without fear of the tigers running around on the same spot were the ones with the stones. Of course I had to wait a while for those guys to repop but it was worthed. I just stayed there killing other geologists and tigers while the right ones decided to get back to work. Well, hope this help a little and wish you the best.

Комментарий от Thottbot

Am i the only one that actually liked this quest?

Комментарий от Thottbot

i dont know why your saying this is a bad thing i got 5 in about 20 mins i wudnt care if it tookme hours you get more xp the longer you do it and thats what its about

Комментарий от Thottbot

The drop rate varies, i got like 1 out of 10 the first one then i got them every 2 or so for the last 7 if STV wasn't GankCity i'd have had it done in 20 minutes -

Комментарий от Thottbot

the drop is bad sometimes and good other times

Комментарий от Thottbot

it's not so bad, i think my droprate was 50%. and they are standing quite separate from one another, so not much aggro you dont want.

Комментарий от Thottbot

Nine Kills. Eight Crystals. Did this quest in less than 5 minutes.

Комментарий от Thottbot

Pretty good droprate.

Комментарий от Thottbot

Yeah.....just go up the tower to aviod getting mobs. IF you dont get full crystals go get them from the goblins in the woods.
DONT GO IN LUMBERMILL.....its like an auto kill on ur character.

Комментарий от Thottbot

Could some one plz tell me how to get the corodanate on my map?

Комментарий от Thottbot

Solid drop rate, on a PvE server this is cake. PvP, yeah, you will probably catch some harassment from the opposing faction so bring a friend to watch your back while you grab these.

Finished it in 15 minutes as a 34 NE Feral Druid, no deaths, just prowl, ravage, finish em off and try not to let them get too close to each other. Best strategy is to pick the high ground and take out the stragglers first. The respawn rate on the geologists is pretty quick so you won't be waiting around long.

Best done in conjunction with the Green Hills Of Stranglethorn quest as well, they will drop a few pages while you're getting the crystals. Solid drop rate on the crystals as well.

geologist south of the base camp drop pretty good

Комментарий от Thottbot

36 pally
8 kills
8 casters
8 drops

100%

i went to 44,16 tree and just ran around killing them

Комментарий от Thottbot

10 kills, 8 crystals. I won't speak to the diffulty of the quest, because it depends on what level you do it. However, there's nothing particularly unusual about the mobs, so stop whining.

Комментарий от Thottbot

Lvl 36 Hunter w/pet.....I was able to get them pretty quickly. I only took breaks to get more mana. My advice is same as most, try coming in from the road & hit only the geologist's but do not try to attack the building...everything in there will aggro you. Tower was no prob.....quite a few Alli but then again it is Stranglethorn. Hunters: Let your pet hit the mobs first, (save your mana) and then set a fire trap right on top of them. It worked for me.

Thx

Комментарий от Thottbot

8 kills, 8 crystals.

I guess they fixed the drop rate on this one.

Комментарий от Thottbot

I'll be blunt I looked for exactly where this is. Now that I've started to use the carbonite add on I actually get quests done now. However it must be pointed out that the segment near the tower that had the key from the engineer at the top not the area to the north east.

Комментарий от Thottbot

well it wasn't 100% drop for me today, but wasn't too bad.

Комментарий от Thottbot

Easily done. I found all 8 at the Venture Co. Base Camp at 43,20 and killed Geologists. Time Taken is 15 mins and i didnt die once. Drop rate is near 100%

Sxylock (37)
Deathwing

Комментарий от Thottbot

I'm assuming the drop-rate has been altered with patch 2.4, because in it took me 15 geo kills to get the 8 drops... Just over 50% compared to the 100% many people are reporting...

Комментарий от Allakhazam

8 of 10 for me around 47.20

Комментарий от Allakhazam

YOu gotta be kidding me. I killed about 38 and i only got 3 crystals.

Abandoned >.<

And yes, they were the right ones.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

28, 8 is not correct. Either that or I am just having a bad day. Had the quest and decided to grind around there. Killed over a hundred and not a single drop.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

12 kills, 8 crystals. So for me it was a 67% drop rate, which I can live with. Of course I was only targeting the Geologists, as the quest text notes. For a Rogue with decent talents in Subtlety, it was a piece of cake-- after an Ambush they were more or less dead without further actions. Nice easy quest!

Комментарий от Allakhazam

The geologists are gnomes found around the mining site on the east side of Lake Nezferiti, in the north part of the zone. They are casters, so wil hit you from range. Also, they wander a lot, so it's easy to get adds from behind you are the sides, where you don't see them coming.

They don't have a lot of hp, so if you get them single they are easy to drop fast.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

the guy who said location 50,90 does to much crack. 50,90 put me right in the middle of the south seas.

the drop rate on the tower is apalling

Комментарий от Allakhazam

What the hell are you talking about? The droprate was great.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

well so far killed 9

0 drops so it is a 10% drop maybe?

Killed 20 1 DROP!

Комментарий от Allakhazam

As others have said, the coords at 42,18 are correct. The drop rate at first seemed horrible, but once I'd gotten a couple, it seemed to speed up. I probably killed less than 30, although I didn't keep track.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

28,8 I think these cords are better for this quest. It is where the geologists mine.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

hi, if you go around the area of 42,19 drop rates are fabulous killed 9 geos for 8 stones. Before i was at co-ords 28,8 and drop rate was yukieeeee.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

%^&*TY DROP RATE! very &*!@ty!

Комментарий от Allakhazam

The geologists are goblins, not gnomes

Комментарий от Allakhazam

Best place I found was 42,19

Комментарий от Allakhazam

Incredible drop rate for me! This is how quests should be. Was boxing 36 Hunter and 36 Shaman and got all 16 in 17 kills. Fantastic!

Комментарий от Allakhazam

The drop rate for the crystals is really not that bad. They dropped roughly about 1 crystal for every 3 or 4 goblins I killed. Not too bad, not to mention that I got about 425xp per kill (rested), so I was able to get some good grinding out of it!

Happy hunting!

Комментарий от Allakhazam

20 minutes not bad.

level 35 geologists had a 34% drop rate

level 36 geologists had a 67% drop rate for me. not bad

Комментарий от Allakhazam

Wasn't bad at all for me - got my 8 in 18 kills, just stuck to geologists outside (didn't catch the advice below about the singing crystal quest).

Комментарий от Allakhazam

Yea the drop rate sucks but whatever I'm still getting exp from killing these.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

My drop rate sucked too. About 10 % I would say. Boring quest.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

44,20 (Stranglethorn Valley)

Drop rate is OK, not too good though.
They don't come in pairs, so this quest is easy.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

Excellent discripton... i would say that every third one dops the itme

enjoy :)

Комментарий от Allakhazam

for the mechanical robot that roams around.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

IF you get this and the quest for the singing blue crystals you can save time. Go to the rig in the water there are 8 goblins and the foreman on it. The foreman has a ~30% chance to drop a singing crystal. The others will drop the tumbling. I also found a nice blue belt from one of the goblins there.

Ended up leaving there with 7/10 of the singing crystals and 3 levels just by clearing the rig. There are also three chests that spawn. One on the first level of the rig, one in the camp by the fire, and one in the house with foreman in it.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

Cords: 42,18 Ventures drop Tumbled Crystals. I killed all on tower and completed.

Edited, Sat Nov 12 11:57:23 2005

Комментарий от Allakhazam

If you attack the Greologists on the outskirts their drop rate is MUCH better then the guys on the rig. i did this in about 20 minutes hunting the guys on the parimeter. Hope it helps.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

My drop rate was about 33%

Комментарий от Allakhazam

42, 20 area.

Got mine from Lumberjacks and Geologists. Took me over an hour to get 8 crystals. Officially, one of the worst drop rates I've come across for a quest.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

As the quest log says, the goblins with the crystals are around the Big lake in the center of the map. You'll find them a little west of where Bhagera spawns, in the goblins clearcut and factory.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

Make sure you hit the geologists. The other guys (lumberjacks, mechanics, etc) don't have them. Drop rate was OK, I've seen worse, I've seen better,

Комментарий от Allakhazam

The location is 50,90.. easy kills, good droptrate

Happy Hunting!

Комментарий от Allakhazam

LOl this drop rate rules, killed 11 and got the 8 i neededm no kidding, did this in 10 mins lol.
i killed Venture CO Geologist

Комментарий от Allakhazam

omg! the drop rate is shocking! ive had to go back 3 times to try and get crystals ive killed countless geologist goblins (it is the correct ones)and i cant get 1 fecking crystal, i asked other players doing the same quest if they were having the same problem but they said drop rate was ok! so ill abandon and accept quest again maybe that might help!

yeah the location is correct .. the drop rate really sux buts like me lvl 37 i kill mobs easyly got good xp and after gets quest complete.. is above you to decides do or no

Комментарий от Allakhazam

Yea the drop rate sucks but whatever I'm still getting exp from killing these.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

took me about 15min for this quest!
drop rate was good i killed 22 of them and i got all 8 and it took me only 2 kills for the last one!

Комментарий от Allakhazam

drop rate was OK, but not great

Комментарий от Allakhazam

I really didnt like this quest, first the drop rate sucked and it took me even longer with this ? shaman camping my corpse lol!

Комментарий от Allakhazam

Not sure if the Lumberjacks got anything, but I killed maybe 15-20 Geologists and got my Crystals really fast. They are level 36 casters, so killing them was really easy---they waste all their mana on a fire sheild when I don't even shoot fire at them, lol. Just watch out for the Shredder guy. He's not that bad, just took a long time to kill him and it sounds terrible, like a chainsaw.

Level 35 BE Paladin.

+3500 XP
+250 Booty Bay Rep
-250 Bloodsail Buccaneers Rep (I didn't know they could hate me even more than they already do!)

Комментарий от Allakhazam

Drop rate was logged as 30% for both me (36 priest) and my mage friend (also 36). These Geologists are insanely easy to kill, so I can understand the lower drop rate.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

Finished this quest in 10 min. Drop rate was INCREDIBLE! Killed 9 got 8

Комментарий от Allakhazam

the geo's do drop on the 3-4 formula, i finished about 20 min at 49,19

Комментарий от Allakhazam

drop rate is horrible, ive killed over 30 and i have 4 crystals

Комментарий от Allakhazam

CRAPPY DROP RATE! :S

Not great

Комментарий от Franknol

The mobs are very spreaded and the drop rate is utter garbage. Skip it unless you have a completionist fetish like me.

Комментарий от Lashab

Shame on you guys. :) Not even 1 person mentioned that they occasionally become immune to fire damage.

I did it at 32, took like an hour, 6-7 deaths. Drop rate wasn't too bad.

Комментарий от kolvirofelune

Focus on the geologists. I observed a drop rate around 30%.

Around 28, 8 the quest is easier. Did it as a frost mage level 39 and even at this level I had to be careful and patient and run many times as well as get the usual food buff and dampen magic to alleviate the geologists damage.

There are 2 geologists and a mechanic together. The mechanics shoot but their range is not as long as a mage's frostbolt (esp once extended by talent) so if you position yourself correctly you can sheep a geologist, then immediately focus the other one while the mechanic needs to move closer, interrupt the geo and finish him then depending on your hp level and mana either run and come back or re-sheep the geo and finish the mechanic etc.

There is also a lone geologist a bit further from the river. You just need to kill a group on 2 goblins first to have access to him (a mechanic and a miner i think). So this one is straightforward.

It advise to plan and clear your escape route (kill the cats on your way) when fighting a group of 3.

Alternate between the lone geologist and the group of 2 with the mechanic while they re-pop, and in the meantime re-kill the cats around and get xp and cloth on the other goblins.

Комментарий от Vethelot

Drop Rate seems low on this one... Just finished it and I think I had to have killed over 50 of these guys just to get 8 crystals... I know wow is all rng , but I was killing the same guys over and over in a loop, I went outside that path and started getting them more often...

Комментарий от xLunacyx

Venture Co. Geologists on the east side of Lake Nazferiti definitely have the best droprate. Kill a couple while doing Гоблинская поддержка
