Bile From Below  

1) run to the loc in the first step and you get the update
2) Move to safety and watch

For this step, I waited a good bit, no spawn. I ran back to the mushrooms at -448, -964 and I got the message "You hear the steps of a large beast ...." and I saw the spawn and got the update

3) Check for the hardened metal-alloy

I waited a good bit again, then I ran back to the mushrooms at the above loc and got the update

4) Kill, got 6 drops
5) Turn in

Step 3 in Bile From Below, where you check for the metal -- you need to step over the spot where you placed the chunk of metal and where the turtle ate it, to update this step.

Already completed 1st quest [Handle With Care], but can't get this 2nd quest
The level requirement might be 70

Ok, here is a quick update, if you wonder if you can box or do a grp with this, the answer is yes! I just did it boxing my 3 toons, and I even did a mistake, to where I can let you know, if you mistakenly give the piece to the wrong toon, luckily, another one of the beasts will pop, it took roughly about 2-3minutes, and what I did, was I stuck my toons in the edge of the "tunnel" between the first set of puddles(The area where the task/quest updates.) & the second set, where the more Caimans and the turtles and those veggies will be at, which are a bit higher level, as well, which the spot I planted my toons at, was the opposite end, of where the higher level monsters where at, so each of my toons could see where the metal piece drops, and the beast will pop just outside of the tunnel area, where the metal piece is at, so you can run your toons over and update the task and then run them back to the tunnel area, and after you do that, and it updates, is when the beast will fight you, plus, it is a very good idea to wipe-out the monsters in the first puddled area, to minimize the attacks, and there is a turtle/caiman that will periodically pop where you will be standing, so, watch-out for him. Ok, just wanted to give a bit more info on this, just in-case you put yourself through the same ordeal, that I did mine....

Using the coords provided here, I cannot get the task update. I have tried putting the hardened metal-alloy on the ground, in a top level inventory slot, and on my cursor. I've logged, zoned, and dropped and re-aquired the quest. None of these things have worked.

As of July 6th 2012 this task appears to be bugged. The ore doesnt update ANYWHERE within the flooded caves. GM repopped the zone today and it still will not update.

I have been at this location, I have dropped it from inventory, had it in top slot of inventory and on the cursor. But NO updates? What am I missing here?

[Sat Jan 03 03:44:36 2009] Your task 'Handle With Care' has been updated.
[Sat Jan 03 03:44:36 2009] Oh well there it is! The sample of Drudgeweed I have been seeking. My thanks... oh take this. Do you want to help [more]?
[Sat Jan 03 03:44:36 2009] You gain experience!!
[Sat Jan 03 03:44:41 2009] You have successfully been granted your reward for: Handle With Care
[Sat Jan 03 03:44:51 2009] You say, 'Hail, Togswell Mophintok'
[Sat Jan 03 03:44:52 2009] What? Are you deaf or do you just not listen. I asked if you want to help [more]!
[Sat Jan 03 03:44:59 2009] You say, 'more'
[Sat Jan 03 03:44:59 2009] Togswell Mophintok says 'I have come to the conclusion that substituting the opramatter diffuser coupled with the glowing uranium deviator for a chromium-coiled springobober covered in... [saliva] just may be the fix I'm looking for!'
[Sat Jan 03 03:45:11 2009] You say, 'saliva'
[Sat Jan 03 03:45:11 2009] Togswell Mophintok says 'A crazy notion? Nonsense! The saliva should serve as an acidic lubricant as well as a conductor! Hah! 'You old tub of parts! Where will I find that kind of saliva' I said to myself. I then recalled an old beast in the Vergalid Mines that just may posess the slimey goop we need! Bleep oop-oop-o. [Unearthed Bonesnapper Beast] is its name. Yep!'
[Sat Jan 03 03:45:38 2009] You say, 'unearthed bonesnapper beast'
[Sat Jan 03 03:45:39 2009] Togswell Mophintok says 'An old friend Pinclog Ratchetclank told me about the creature some time ago. It has only been spotted a few times, and the only known data on the creature was apparently in the process of being taken when the writing on the transcript suddenly... stopped. This could be crazy, but it seems as if the last person to spot the beast was, well, [eaten].'
[Sat Jan 03 03:45:55 2009] You say, 'eaten'
[Sat Jan 03 03:45:56 2009] Togswell Mophintok says 'Yes, eaten! It didn't make sense at first, but after thinking it over it made perfect sense. The creature must be blind. I have come up with this hardened metal-alloy material that emits a distinct odor that resembles something similar to the food the creature may normally feast on. With any luck, you will be able to plant it near the creature and he will try to eat it, giving me the saliva sample that I need! That is... if the creature has half a brain and doesn't try to swallow it. Be sure to stay out of sight, or you may wind up as the main course.'
[Sat Jan 03 03:46:00 2009] You have been assigned the task 'Bile From Below'.

Plant the hardened metal-alloy

Task updates at -454.08, -997.96, -352.54 down in the flooded caves in Vergalid.

Move to safety and watch

Unearthed Bonesnapper Beast spawns deeper in the caves and paths out to the previous spot.

Check for the hardened metal-alloy

Don't believe you have to anything for this step but wait. The turtle paths back down to -472.82, -1496.53, -362.63, to a pool full of caimans.

Loot 1 Saliva Covered Hardened Metal-Alloy

He swallowed your alloy! You're going to have to cut it out of him. Mezzable, corpse camps when pulled, summoned. Not significantly harder than normal zone mobs. Dropped Saliva Covered Hardened Metal-Alloy and normal trash drops for a turtle.

Deliver 1 Saliva Covered Hardened Metal-Alloy to Togswell Mophintok

[Sat Jan 03 04:16:36 2009] You have returned the saliva coated hardened metal-alloy to Togswell.
[Sat Jan 03 04:16:36 2009] You gain experience!!

Task completed. No other rewards, Togswell no longer responds to hails.
