I am starting the High Elf Paladin newbie armor quests, because I somehow missed them and didn't realize the giant wasp workers were such a rare spawn. I don't remember them being so hard to find before. The Tarsus is also not a high drop rate, because of the 20 or so that I've killed so far, I haven't found one yet. How did people manage to finish this quest, especially when there were other players in the zone competing with them for the spawns?

the "newer" newbie armor quests were originally added sometime between Luclin and PoP era, some don't unlock until Ykesha. if you're trying to do them on a TLP that's still early in expansions, the mobs won't drop the requested pieces.

easy way to tell if it's original/classic newbie armor or the updated newbie armor added later on = the latter has "recommended level" on the pieces.

i.e. old school Ivy Etched Tunic vs. later era Trueshot Chainmail Tunic

Another GFay spawn mark is at 1821, -2025, -43 (NE corner of zone). Again, continuous Worker only spawn mark with a 30 second timer. It flies SE.

One spawns in GFay at 1926, 166, 16. It is on a set 30 second spawn timer and only the worker will spawn. I was testing theories to get a Warrior to pop, but nothing popped from that spot but Workers ONLY. When it spawns, it flies East.

Tracked a spawn down to 1819.60, -2029.09, -42.28 in Greater Faydark on the Fippy Darkpaw server. This particular spawn paths Southeast through the zone. Once killed this location spawns 'a giant wasp worker' 100% of the time with an approximate one minute re-spawn timer. If you can locate the mob that spawns at this location in the zone and then track back to this spawn location, it can make finding the required No Drops for the entry level armor quests incredibly easy.

Good luck!

Does anyone know a really good area to hunt Giant Wasp WORKER's at?

It's a "Giant Wasp Worker Tergite" NO DROP item, which I assume is for the Pally quest mentioned here. Also drops Royal Jelly, and Giant Wasp Worker Pollen for newbie caster armor quest, or at least it should - seems to be a slightly rare drop :-(

In Felwithe there is a pally guild, in there you will find a quest from the chick across from the general down strairs. In the recipe she gives ya she tells you that you need Giant wasp worker Tarsi to make the armor for yourself. That is WTF it drops for!
