I killed approximately 225 Trappers at and around 38,38 the droprate is far from 90% in fact it is almost exactly 7% at that location I got 2 for every 30 I killed.&nbsp I'm not making this up since with cosmos you can now see the exact droprate that you have experienced, and I would think that after getting 15 Bloodpetals at a 2/30 droprate that I would have a significant sample size.&nbsp

I found a possibly better location a little further north at 40,23 I do not know the droprate on these since I got to them when I had 14/15 Bloodpetals, but they are Trappers and there are a lot of them in a much smaller proximity as opposed to the nightmarishly far apart ones at 38,38.&nbsp Here's hoping they drop decent, even if they don't you'll fare better than you would at 38,38.&nbsp

Please keep in mind guys that if you kill one and get one drop, the droprate is not 100%.&nbsp Or say you got 12/15 by killing somewhere with a really low droprate, then you decided to check somewhere else, you kill 4 more and get your last 3.&nbsp This doesn't mean the droprate on the new place/enemy is 75%, it could just mean you got lucky.&nbsp

As most people know, this quest is the beginning of a short chain which ends with a Sunken Temple quest.&nbsp Keep in mind that Sunken Temple is intended for characters from their mid-40s to early 50s.

There are a couple problems with what should have been a simple collect quest:

1)&nbsp Seems like the only Bloodpetal that drops the quest items at a DECENT droprate are Bloodpetal Trappers.&nbsp There aren't many of them.

2)&nbsp The Trappers that are around, are sprinkled in heavily packed zones.&nbsp You pretty much have to watch your back at all times to make sure some random Ooze or Pterodox doesn't jump you.&nbsp This slows the process of collecting them.&nbsp I was killing more of these things just to get to the 1 or 2 Trappers I saw.

3)&nbsp And just when you thought it was difficult enough, there are numerous level 56-60 Elite T-Rex that roam the very same area as the Bloodpetal Trappers.&nbsp I'd understand if there was 1 T-Rex terrorizing the area, but thus far, I've counted nearly 4.&nbsp Not to mention, if you go south of the Trappers, toward the Lake, there are more elite mobs with pets.

All in all, this quest is a !@#$%.&nbsp But it's something you should do, if you need the ST quest Haze of Evil.

Good luck!

66,33 for all you Bloodpetal needs.

This quest will take forever. If you dont have someone running you around killing these thing at record pace it may take you and hour or two. As a 50 rogue the poisen wasnt helping either.

I found it easiest to simply do this while doing the other quests and just kill whatever Bloodpetals you find along the way rather then sit there and hunt them until finished... helps with the tedium :P

I got a much higher droprate from the Bloodpetal Flayers around 51, 31...
And the beasts are not that high lvl here

The sprouts which are picked up on the ground are for a different quest.&nbsp This one you have to fight the flowers to get them. Did find that the area around 70,31 which someone mentioned earlier was better drop rate there on the thrashers.&nbsp Still not great but better.&nbsp I had been killing these things off and on for days not seen the flower drop, then I went to this area and got 4 off of the first 10 that I killed.&nbsp good luck and watch out for Devilasaur.

I didn't get any off any other of the flower types. Threshers for the win!

When I see comments about drop rates like this, I just abandon the quest and move on. So I miss a quest in ST, so what. I'm here to have a bit of fun, not be bored to death killing the same things over and over that can't even put up a decent fight.

I think I'll go collect some tar for that nice goblin in Gadgetzan. I understand the drop rate there is great! <joke>

66,33 = being stomped on by a huge Dinosaur every 5 minutes.

Pretty low drop rate for me, around 15%. As a caster, the poison made an already tedious quest even more tedious, one of the worst in Un'Goro.

I've found that along the eastern edge of the Lakkari Tar Pits, south of the Fungal Rock is the best place to get the bloodpetals.&nbsp There are tons of the flower elementals walking around and very few other creatures to worry about sneaking up on you!&nbsp I got all 15 petals with 23 kills, but I didn't concentrate only on one type of flower... I just killed everything, threshers and lashers. =D&nbsp Hope this helps, happy questing!

I am still working on this quest, the drop rate is awful and the poison damage will hinder your pace more than anything else. 5100 xp can very well be gained in just a few minutes by quest-grinding other mobs in the zone. If you really want to do this questline then do it at levels 52-53 and kill the level 48 mobs.

I thought -- might as well get atal'ai haze, I'm going to the ST (again) anyway, this time for my class quest... *ugh* I had never bothered with this quest on any prior character and now I know it was an excellent decision :P The drop rate was horrific, on all the mobs, tried the ones suggested, the rate improved a bit but not as much as it ought to have as such, it really was several hours of sheer tedium. Ah well, I ended up collecting enough green and yellow crystals to make several dozen restores.. and I levelled, although I think this quest is best solo'ed. With a friend, it feels as if it's taking a million more years, even when it really isn't. But I did it with a friend nonetheless, and hey, it's more social -- having someone to talk to while grinding is a good thing.

Off to Gregan and so forth to complete it and then watch the funny ending it is cute, I've seen it before - then to the ST for the 5th time (there's another instance that is a pain - at least until you get to the bosses downstairs, the whole "in here, out here, click here, now there, run around, now that way" isn't fun... and it's time consuming.

Oh, in the ST don't overlook the slugs.. one dropped the epic Icemail Jerkin the other day, we were all rather astonished ) One happy Shammy got it and we all cheered the slugs, yay for the epic slugs, lol.

Other than that, I actually like Jurassic Park, not all the quests are tedious and it's a good place to spend upper 40's/very low 50's with good exp and lots to kill... skinner's heaven, and not bad for miners either or herbalists. All in all a decent zone that I quite enjoy wouldn't mind a small inn (the cave? ) and mailbox, although gadget is quite close, and at least we have a flight path there now.

i found that the bloodpetal lasher have the best drop rate, i went to 68,25 and got mine in less then 10 minutes.

5100xp at lvl49. Actually turning in this quest lvld me to 50. :)

The drop rate wasn't... well, it was less than average, but with rxp you get 500-600xp per kill, so overall you get lots of XP for this quest considering you're killing mobs. I certainly didn't mind. :)

I've killed about 12 of them and only got 2 bloodpetals....

I usually get 1 per 2nd kill from the Bloodpetal Threshers

you have to pwn so many of them Q(O.oQ)

true, this quest is boring with this kind of drop rate

Yeah, my drop rates were poor. QQ. Oh well, got 5100 XP at Lvl 48.

almost every quest in Ungoro crater where u collect items has low drop rates and are all boring

Edited, Tue Apr 19 09:54:33 2005

Guys do u have to Kill the Bloodpetal things?

lashers are at 56.35 used titan for coords

The lvl 47-49 Threshers at 65,25 - 67,30 gave me a 57 % droprate.

Larion and Muigin... Sounds like Luigi and Mario to me, but I've yet to look for them :P

The ending for this one is pretty funny if you're in Ungoro killing stuff anyway, might as well do this one. It's some nice bonus XP for your trip to ST, too.

bugged atm for 9-2-06, you can't get the quest period.

Definetly u have to go with the Lashers... Drop rate is not good at all.. but a little better on these. Best to solo this quest, if u dont, its gonna take you hours.. I did this around lvl 49-50.. took my 3-4 hours. I suggest u do this quest while doing something else as these flowers are everywhere in Un'goro.

You gotta be kiddin' me with these pathetic drop rates.

If you are also collecting soil samples then this isn't quite as bad. You can combine these, because the plants also drop the soil.

fyi...

In fact, The Super Sticky quest, Muigin and Larion, and Un'Goro Soil can all be done together and you get good xp for the mobs and the turn in. Also I got blue "Wyrmslayer Spaulders (403 armor, 12 STR, 8 AGI, 12 STA)" off the first tar pit elemental I killed.

Yeah.. bit boring, but I rate these high.. at least at my level (48 Hunter)

Took me over an hour to get these as lvl 51 combat rogue.

These Bloodpetal mobs have have annoying abilities such as Bloodpetal Poison and Lash.

Mario and Luigi!

ahh well just be glad once you get the 15 bloodpetals, it may take 5000000 hours to od , but a lot of xp form the killing :)

Yiano has the right idea.

You spend a decent amount of time in Un'Goro Crater and there are Bloodpetal mobs across the entire zone spanning 48-53. Instead of just zerging through the quest for 15 in one sitting, pace it and kill them between other quests and the poor drop rate won't seem so noticeable.

I found the drop rate to be about even between the lashers and threshers in the NE corner (beware the great white devilsaur). However, I think it is worth noting that Lashers have a few special moves that make killing them a little slower for melee classes. The two I disliked was their Lash (knocks you down, stuns a few seconds) and their disarm.

Threshers only poison and were therefore a faster kill for me than the Lashers.

The poison is a pain, and if you can dispel it you should as quickly as possible as it also drains mana.
