They're not much use even as vendor fodder: top price is 9s 1c. I could believe they're used as part of a "task" (the sort where you're told "go there, kill N mobs, collect X drops") but I don't see such a task documented yet.
Anybody got any info on these things? I used to hunt in here all the time and don't remember ever seeing these things drop, now their dropping left and right. Is it a new item or did I just miss them before?
Still no info huh? I have a feeling it has something to do with the upcoming re-vamp of the zone. The lore on it seems to go along with that. Either that or maybe gonna be used in a faction quest. Guess we'll have to wait and see.
