    Scout Bowen may be found at /loc -220, -1715. This task is opened upon completing the previous task, "Bixie Menace: Drone Hatchery."

    You say, 'Hail, Scout Bowen'

    Scout Bowen says 'Drakkin. We need your help. We lack the numbers to [attack] the bixie farms to the south. '

    You say, 'Attack?'

    Scout Bowen says 'The territory controlled by the Stone Hive bixies has doubled in size these past few years. We must stop them before they encroach further on Cresent Reach.'

    A task window appears. Pick the task "Bixie Menace: Jum Jum Fields."

    You have been assigned the task 'Bixie Menace: Jum Jum Fields'.

    Bowen says, 'You have already struck at the bixie cocoon fields, but the time has come to hamper our enemy's primary means of production.'

    'Seek the Jum Jum farms to the south of the cocoon fields and lay waste to the bixie forces there. Without control of those farms, Stone Hive will not be able to feed its ever-expanding colony.'

    Kill 10 Worker Drones 0/10 - Blightfire Moors

    Head south of where the wasps were in the previous task. You will see a small farm area. Kill 10 x "a worker drone". You may need to kill the gardeners and laborers to spawn them.

    Kill 5 Stone Hive Gardeners 0/5 - Blightfire Moors

    In the same area kill 5 x "a Stone Hive gardener."

    Kill 5 Stone Hive Laborers 0/5 - Blightfire Moors

    In the same area kill 5 x "a Stone Hive laborer."

    Return to Scout Bowen 0/1 - Blightfire Moors

    You say, 'Hail, Scout Bowen'

    Bowen says, 'Welcome back. I can tell by the smeared Jum Jum on your armor that your raid on the bixie farms was a success!'

    Your faction standing with Circle of the Crystalwing got better.
    You gain experience!!

    This opens up the next task, "Bixie Menace: The Silo."

    Have completed Scout Bowen's Bixie Menace, Drone Hatchery task#1 multiple times and he will not give me task #2 Jum Jum Fields. My Hero's Journey Advancement is showing that I have completed task #1. It must be bugged. A friend was doing the tasks at the same time and has not had any problems getting the subsequent tasks. So frustrating. I have camped completely out of game several times hoping that would fix the problem but it did not.

    I am having the same issue. No problems on any other toon or account. I have reported bug after bug after bug. I reported it on Daybreaks site and they told me they couldn't do anything and to create a bug report. Ugh.
    Different requirement

    Doing the BM: Jum Jum Fields quest now, with my Necro on Vox server. It's only asking me to kill 5 Worker Drones, not 10.

    And fyi, since it's not mentioned here, the Laborers don't heal themselves but the Gardeners do. So try to pull the Gardeners singularly and as soon as they start to heal themselves (when their HP drops below ~30%) then hit them hard. As a Necro they aren't much fun when they heal for roughly the same as I leech them. If you pull more than one Gardener or just other mobs then you'll find your spells interrupted just often enough for the Gardener to heal themselves up to 50% again.
    Same problem,

    In fact, the task windows DOES pop but only offers #1.

    Did the #1 Drone Hatchery twice but still no task for #2. Is this a bug?
